1957 CHEVY 1/2 Ton Pickup
A Nice Survivor of its Era
Vin Body tag matches title

This truck is a good true survivor which sits straight and looks right.  It even has its original wiring that is NOT all butchered.  A great canidate for a complete restore or drive it now like it is.

This has an Original 235 6-cylinder motor (not 1957) that is a few years newer. However, if you are looking for the original motor that came out of this truck I do have it available. (see notes below on Original motor)

3-Speed transmission with overdrive. Shifts good. (see notes on transmission below)

This is not a shortbox or a longbox.  It is the in-between that most talk about that is used for the Cameo conversions. 48x90 on the interior.
New Doug fir wood in bed.

Glass is all new or good except the wing windows that have some bubbling.

Body looks like someone has done some restoration on it years earlier.  Hood has some bondo on it.  Any body work that was loose I removed the bondo.  .  Some rust in typical places.

Doors need adjusting as they sag some.  I think they need new hindge pins.

New Rebuilt seat

Windshield wipers work.  
All lights work.
Original gauges work except there is a hole in oil sending line, so it needs replaced.

New fuel tank and sending unit
New rebuilt carburator
Fresh tune up with new points, rotor, condenser, cap, wires and plugs.

New master cylinder. Brakes are a little soft. I think the wheel cylinders should be replaced eventually.
Needs heater core.

NOTES:
I also have the Original Motor - Needs rebuilt, good rebuilder with no ridge on cylinders, crank looks good, bearings look good, needs head gasket, rings are ceased from not being started in a lot of years.

Transmission- It is all there including the original wiring except theres a linkage that goes from the accelator petal to the transmission that is missing.  Should not be hard to find.

Actual mileage unknown on vehicle.

This vehicle runs awesome!

Callaway debuts its new C7 Stingray at National Corvette Museum

Fri, 02 May 2014

Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.

The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.

Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
