1951 Chevrolet Truck 3600 Standard Cab Pickup 2-door 3.8l on 2040-cars
Little Elm, Texas, United States
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. |

Car and Driver reveals spy shots of mid-engine 2017 Corvette
Thu, Jan 8 2015Some news in the car world is perennial, and some is perennially wrong. Typically news about some upcoming mid-engined Chevy Corvette has fallen into the latter category, with rumors never yet generating a road car. This time could very well be different. Car and Driver has some exclusive photographs of what would appear to be a Corvette test mule with a mid-mounted engine. The car in question might look like a Holden SSV ute that's undergone some indelicate modification, but C/D editor Don Sherman assures that the bones of a C8 'Vette live within that crude bodywork. Sherman points to the closeness of the cabin to the front axle as clue number one of this car's mid-engine attitude, as well as the powertrain-sized space between the back of the seats and the rear axle. The roof and glasshouse are all clearly plucked from the current C7, and the gas tank filler positioned on the B-pillar is another huge clue. The buff book estimates that the mule points to a timeline for sale, even. Testing on this level could mean a mid-engined C8 ready for sale in as few as 20 months, or for the 2017 model year. Click over to Car and Driver to have a close look at this important set of spy photographs, as well as a rendering of what a finished C8 might ultimately look like
Man spent $75 on a truck that lasted 38 years
Mon, Jan 5 2015Absurd as it is, some buyers today are worried about getting their car to last throughout the term of their seven-year car loan. Minnesota resident Bob Sportel has the opposite issue: his Chevrolet truck seemingly won't die. Sportel needed a cheap ride to get to work when he took a job at a farmer's co-op 38 years ago, so he bought a rusty 1957 Chevy pickup for $75 from a farmer; at the time, the 20-year-old truck was almost as old as Bob was. After nearly four decades of daily driving and an estimated 300,000 miles, Sportel is still driving the truck today. Bolts secure a fender, Bondo secures the lights, what looks like a whole roll of duct tape keeps him sitting on the bench seat instead of in it. For a 58-year-old pickup that's never seen a garage or a new coat of paint – but did get its oil changed four times a year – that's not bad; Sportel thinks his repair bill hasn't got above $1,000 for the entire time he's owned the truck. He still has no plans to get rid of it, saying, "It just becomes a part of you." You can watch his story in the video above. News Source: KARE11.com Chevrolet Truck Classics Videos
2015 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra recalled for steering issues
Thu, Sep 13 2018DETROIT — General Motors Co is recalling more than 1 million pickup trucks and sport utility vehicles in the United States due to issues with a temporary loss of power steering, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said. The recall is for 2015 models. They are: the Chevy Silverado 1500, Suburban and Tahoe, GMC Sierra 1500, Yukon and Yukon XL and Cadillac Escalade. The problem may cause difficulty steering the vehicle, especially at low speeds, increasing the risk of a crash, the auto safety regulator said in a document dated Sept. 12. The document did not highlight any reports of accidents and injuries, because of the power steering issue. GM dealers will update the power steering module software, free of charge for owners of the affected vehicles. In 2014, the No.1 U.S. automaker had recalled nearly 800,000 pickup trucks worldwide because of the same problem. GM did not immediately respond to a request for comment.Related Video:
