For sale is this 59 Fleetside. Into patina, ratrod or vintage? Here you go. Looking for that black liquid looking paint job, this isnt far away. No major body panels/sheet work needed.1 small hole near bottom of driver door,1 small hole near bottom of passengers door. One 3 inch circle on lower left driver's door. And the sunroof that someone thought was a good idea to install. Maybe so, just not my style. rest of sheetmetal in really solid condition. This a California truck. Couple little patches in the floorboard but very very solid overall, no Fred Flinstone style braking. Footsteps solid, inside rear corners, behind seat, all around gas tank solid. All metal bed rails present & mostly all straight. Even banged up, twisted, rusty, bent, rails are hard to find. Surface rust of course but will try to sand those down & hit with primer before it's sold.

It has a mid 70's 307 chevy V8 engine, powerglide automatic transmission, nice sounding dual exhaust, nothing too loud, just nice throaty. It has a Camaro front clip which adds power steering and power brake, disc brakes, better shocks. Mid 90's tilt steering wheel ( will make driving positions more flexible) The front clip was welded onto existing frame, so frame isn't hacked up, no structural integrity lost. Front clip = better steering, braking,smoother ride from mid 70's shocks system versus original 59 suspension. Also, parts are much easier/cheaper to find for mid 70's engine and 80's camaro front clip versus 59 chevy parts. The engine runs strong, kicks right over, sounds really good with the dual exhaust. The shocks need replacing and steering fine tuned. Original turn signals kept & work. Doors seams line up nicely and doors close solid.

 Emblems,,  I have the front side emblems, hood emblem and rear bed " Fleetside " emblems, you will need a new bench seat. It has one there but its beat up . I have 3 extra side quarter windows, the original steering wheel and wipers. And yes, current clear California registration, pink in hand, valid to Jan 2015...

I have a perfect ebay rating and plan on keeping it that way so you can bid with confidence. I am selling the truck locally so I reserve the right to end the auction early. If you live in the Los Angeles area, you are more that welcome, and encouraged to come check it out in person. Buyer is responsible for any transportation. You can email me and I can help set something up for you.

UPDATE!! I UPDATE! UPDATE!!  I had a few requests on info/pics on under carriage. I jacked up the truck and took a bunch of pics. I also took a couple short videos of the engine turning over. I have already sent them to those who requested. If you also want more pics,videos, send me your email and I'll pass them on to you as well.

Autoblog fan favorite car ads from Super Bowl XLIX

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Super Bowl XLIX is in the books, and the New England Patriots emerged victorious. Of course, if you're like us, the big game wasn't so much about the battle between the east coast and west, so much as a fight between the world's automotive advertisers. We collected and collated all of last night's new ads and put them together for you to vote on. And yes, we're limiting this year's contest to last night's new features. That's why you aren't seeing Dodge's epic Wisdom among our collection of commercials, and it's a similar story with Chevrolet's Truck Guy Focus Group series, which highlights the new Colorado. You can still vote for your favorites. We won't be closing the voting on our Super Bowl page, so while the winners and losers are correct as of this writing, it's entirely possible that there could be some changes in the rankings as time goes on. So, without any further ado, here are the winning ads based on your voting. Nissan: With Dad Fiat: Ready For Action Jeep: Beautiful Lands BMW: Newfangled Idea Mercedes-Benz: Fable NASCAR: America Start Your Engines As for those ads that failed to impact you, loyal readers, Toyota was the absolute, undisputed loser. The Japanese brand ran four ads in total – two for Toyota and two for Lexus – and all of them have negative tallies as of this writing. Lexus' Make Some Noise and Lets Play and Toyota's One Bold Choice and My Bold Dad both had very weak showings among the commercials that aired, although they weren't alone. Neither Mazda nor Kia scored particularly well, despite featuring celebrity magic act Penn and Teller and former James Bond, Pierce Brosnan, respectively. Chevrolet was the winner of the losers, as of our writing, recording the fewest downvotes for its audience-punking The Big Game ad. If you want to take a second look at the losing ads, you can head back to our Super Bowl page for the complete collection. But for now, head into Comments and let us know what you think of the results.

Canada opens probe into 250,000 GM pickups, SUVs over brake performance

Sun, Jun 23 2019

Transport Canada, the auto safety regulator, has opened a probe into braking issues in nearly 250,000 General Motors full-size pickups and SUVs after U.S. officials launched a similar probe last year, the agency said on its website. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in November into 2.73 million U.S. 2014-2016 model year SUVs and pickups after receiving 487 reports of hard brake pedal effort accompanied by extended stopping distance that were attributed to deterioration of the engine-driven brake assist vacuum pump. Transport Canada's probe covers 249,700 2015 through 2017 model year vehicles including the Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Suburban, Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon as well as 2014-2017 Chevrolet Silverado LD and GMC Sierra LD vehicles. The U.S. agency said it had reports of nine incidents of vehicles incurring damage as a result of colliding with another vehicle or fixed object at low speeds and reports of two injuries. NHTSA said if the pump fails to operate, the amount of brake power assist can be significantly reduced, extending vehicle stopping distance. The NHTSA sent GM an information request in a Feb. 7 letter. A GM spokesman said he had no update on the investigation. Reporting by David Shepardson; editing by Jonathan Oatis

NHTSA closes book on Ford, GM probes of 600,000 vehicles

Thu, Nov 27 2014

US safety regulators have closed a pair of investigations into some 500,000 Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis and Marauder sedans built between 2004 to 2007, and 100,000 Chevrolet Impala models from 2014. The Ford investigation focused on rusting heat shields, which may become dislodged and jam the steering, according to Reuters. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that this happened very rarely. In fact, of the ten incidents filed with the government safety watchdog, six came from a single police department, which evidently had some sort of problem with its reporting. As for the Impala, the NHTSA investigators attributed two incidences of "unintended autonomous braking" to user error. In both cases, the vehicles were involved in rear-end collisions. According to GM investigators, it's believed that drivers accidentally activated the electric parking brake, causing the collisions. The vehicles in question were rental cars.
