This is my driver quality  1951 Chevrolet 3600! This restomod has all original Sheet metal aside from the front of the bed. It has been equipped with some nice new age additions. With the stance it drives and feels more like a Chevy 3100 but with the harder to find 3600 titling. It does have a clear title in my name. The paint is metallic midnight blue and It was painted in sections and not as just a overcoat on top of assembled metal. Every piece was painted individually. It is not a show car that is 10/10 for every aspect, But with that said, this is a driver truck that I am not selling for 45k. This is a truck you can drive and enjoy.  “ I don’t want a gun I can’t shoot, or a truck I cant drive”. The grill, running boards, fenders, hood and tailgate are all original and there is no fiberglass anywhere on this truck. All Rot has been cut out patched appropriately 

 The motor is a 235 inline 6 that is in excellent shape from a 1954 Chevy when pulling the engine code and it is still a 3 speed manual transmission from the factory. It does have a Rochester B Carb that has been rebuilt with a brand new choke cable. The distributer was rebuilt and works great

As you can see in the pictures truck has been upgraded with a front end disk brake kit that is brand new including brake lines and it has been converted to Chevy 5 lug in the front and 74 Chevy Nova in the rear. The driveshaft has been modified to work with the nova rear end as well. Brand new shocks as well.

 Even though it has a retrofitted rear end I purchase a Lokar E-brake conversion cable kit that hooks up the original parking brake setup to this rear end. You will NOT find many older trucks with working parking brake cables like this one. it is hooked up. needs to be adjusted but installed.

It has a brand new 2 Bore brake master cylinder with prop valve as well. No more unsafe 1 bore master cylinder. All of the brake line has been converted to nickel copper brake line as well.

The gauges are original and aside from running lights are not hooked up at this time. , but the car is sitting on a brand new 12 volt harness and ignition switch for that modern charge and convenience. I also added turn signal switch to this truck so you can have some modern convenience in a old time ride. Brand new tail lights with incorporated license plate bracket for that nice clean look

It also has a brand new complete wood bed kit that includes wood, bolts, angle bars, and metal slats. And bed blocks. The wood has been Minwax polyurethaned to keep it looking awesome for years to come. I have also created a Wood Bed Rail Kit that is Minwaxed to match the wood Bed that I find very sharp looking.

Sitting on a brand new set of 17x7 inch Riddler rims and tires.

Black Seat on Original frame in Very nice shape. It also has a Original Steering wheel, Radio bezel, and glove box. New headliner, door panels, speedo cable, turn signal switch, headlights, headlight bezels and gaskets, wiring harness, shifter head, and tail lights.

 

Another perk is all of the glass has been removed and replaced with new original style green tinted glass. The headliner is brand new, and so are the door panels.

Gas tank is original style and is brand new. No rusty gas in this bad boy. Inside and outside are all painted midnight metallic blue and the frame is painted black

I have put allot of love time and money into this truck and I am sad to see it go, but as life throws us curveballs it is just one of those things that has to happen.

There are a few things you can add yourself to spruce it up, but I have decided to leave off due to me needing to sell it. :

gauges need to be hooked up to work, horn doesn't work, there is no exhaust. there Is a pipe that goes  from exhaust to bottom of truck, but that's it . there are runs in the paint. paint is a 7/10 shape in my opinion

Obviously this is a classic truck and is sold As IS Where is.. But you will not be disappointed in this buy.

You must arrange the transportation and pay for that yourself, but I will assist the delivery company with loading if they require it.

This is a great truck.  I hope it sees allot of road time because old trucks are meant to be driven, not stored. 

 I can purchase and install a new aftermarket gauges if that is a major deal breaker, but I will go up on the sales price.

These are the 'Greenest' and 'Meanest' cars in 2015

Fri, Feb 6 2015

As has become tradition, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) has come up with a ranking of what it refers to as the "greenest" cars of 2015, and, by way of contrast, a list of the so-called "meanest" cars, so those who value eco-friendliness over all else can choose which vehicles they should or should not consider buying. As you may expect, electric cars make up the majority of the greenest cars on the list, but, perhaps surprisingly to many, the Tesla Model S didn't make the cut. It's worth noting, too, that where the electricity an owner uses to charge their electric vehicle has a big impact on its overall environmental impact. "A car that is charged using electricity generated from natural gas or renewables is going to have significantly less impact on the environment than one charged on a coal-heavy grid," says ACEEE lead vehicle analyst Shruti Vaidyanathan. The ACEEE's list for 2015 looks very different than it did in 2014. It's an interesting collection, though – and we're sure this goes without saying, really – we'd recommend doing a bit more research into each vehicle and how it might fit into your daily life before making any purchase decisions. Click here to see the ACEEE's list of the Greenest and Meanest vehicles sold in the United States in 2015.

GM to squeeze out more production capacity for midsize trucks

Tue, May 26 2015

General Motors was predicting a strong showing for the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon before they debuted, and demand among dealers for the midsize trucks even exceeded company's expectations. The positive situation has left GM with a problem, though: finding ways to increase capacity for the pickups at the Wentzville Assembly plant in Missiouri. With a third shift already running, GM has continued to look for ways to build just a few more of the trucks at the plant. The company has plans to hire as many as 1,000 more workers for the Saturday and Sunday shifts to construct an additional 2,000 pickups a month, according to unnamed insiders at the factory speaking to Automotive News. The little adjustments even extend to getting rid of an unpaid break to add 18 minute of assembly time over the course of a day, which equals about 3,500 more vehicles a year. All of this effort comes because the trucks are in such high demand. According to GM's figures, the company has delivered a combined 35,720 units of the Colorado and Canyon from January through April 2015, and the Chevy was the fastest-selling truck in the US for the previous three months. In May, it spent an average of just 12 days in showrooms before being snapped up. And even better for the company, 43 percent of these buyers came from other brands. According to Automotive News, the most popular trade-ins have included the Ford F-150, Toyota Tacoma, and Dodge Dakota. Related Video:

2016 Chevy Volt powertrain video teasers

Fri, Oct 31 2014

If there's one thing we've learned about plug-in vehicle fans, you have a thing for seeing your cars get made. The series of videos showing BMW i3 production was strangely popular, as were the shots from inside the VW e-Golf plant. Well, with General Motors pulling the veil off of the 2016 Chevy Volt this week, it's time to take a peek at the production process for that vehicle as well. You're welcome. Up first we've got a clip from CNN Money showing a little bit about how the new Volt's new battery pack and other powertrain components are made. Those of you who are trying to read the lithium tea leaves and see if the new shape reveals that the 2016 Volt will have five seats might want to check it out. Then we've got two clips from GM itself, one showing an animation about the updated Voltec powertrain and another with some B Roll of the old Volt. Since GM doesn't want us to see the new car quite yet, we'll have to enjoy this for now. Watch below. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.
