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.

GM recalling over 40,000 Chevy, Pontiac and Saturn models over fuel pump woes

Mon, 01 Oct 2012

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for a number of General Motors cars and crossovers bought or currently registered in the hot-climate states of Arkansas, Arizona, California, Nevada, Oklahoma and Texas. As many as 40,859 units consisting of the 2007 Chevrolet Equinox, Pontiac Torrent and Saturn Ion and the 2007-2009 Chevrolet Cobalt (shown) and its Pontiac G5 twin are being recalled for potential fuel leaks.
This recall is being issued due to potentially faulty fuel pump components that can crack and cause gasoline to leak from the return or supply ports and possibly cause a fire. NHTSA has not indicated how many fuel leaks or vehicle fires have been reported. As a fix, GM will replace the fuel pump modules on all affected vehicles free of charge. Since Pontiac and Saturn have been shuttered, owners will be able to go to another GM-brand dealership to have their vehicles repaired.
While the list of affected cars and crossovers varies by state and model year, if you own any of these models and live in Arizona, California, Florida, Nevada, Oklahoma or Texas, be sure to check the official notice below for more details.

Autoblog Minute: VW finds CO2 'irregularities', Takata dropped by automakers, SEMA recap

Fri, Nov 6 2015

Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal gets a new wrinkle, US regulators hit Takata Corporation with a substantial fine, and we head to Las Vegas for a look at tuner paradise at the 2015 SEMA show. Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal gets a new wrinkle. US regulators issue a significant fine to Takata Corporation. And we take a peek inside tuner paradise at the 2015 SEMA show. I'm senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. The VW diesel emissions scandal, first brought to light in September, gets a new wrinkle, as an internal investigation by the German automaker revealed [00:00:30] irregularities in CO2 emissions that could affect approximately 800,000 vehicles. VW estimates the issue could pose a 2-billion euro economic risk. VW claims that most of the vehicles affected have diesel engines, but industry analysts say a 1.4-liter gas engine is also affected. VW says that fuel consumption figures were set too low during the CO2 certification process. During all of this, sales of some diesel-powered Volkswagen, Audi, and Porsche models [00:01:00] have been halted. Takata Corporation is back in the news in connection with its deadly airbag scandal. Federal regulators fined Takata $70 million. If the parts supplier does not comply, the fine could balloon to $200 million. Takata was also dropped this week by its biggest customer, Honda. And now, Toyota and Mazda will be following Honda's lead in dropping Takata. We're also hearing that Mitsubishi and Subaru are considering a switch in air-bag inflator suppliers. SEMA 2015 [00:01:30] came and went. We saw offerings from Mopar, like the AWD Challenger concept. Honda unveiled a Ridgeline that it will race at the Baja 1000, which gives us a hint at what future production model could look like. The celebrity presence was also felt in Vegas as it always is. Kid Rock brought a Duramax Diesel Chevy Silverado, and Acura restored and presented Ludacris with his now famous 1993 Acura Legend. Those are the highlights from the week that was. Be sure to come back on Saturday for my full recap, [00:02:00] where I'll have some added insight into Hyundai's foray into the luxury sector. For Autoblog, I'm Greg Migliore.
