For all of you who have been afflicted by the growing trend of pick up fever; here is a fairly nice 1956 Chevy Pick Up truck. Most of the hard and expensive work has already been done: It has a V-8(Believed to be a 350) along with what is also believed to be a 350 transmission. The engine starts right away and it sounds very nice; it drives fairly well. It does smoke when you first start it but not after it warms up; more than likely due to the fact that it has sat for over a year, not driven. It has front disc brakes that work fairly well but I would recommend going thru before you decide to take it on a coast to coast drive. It does have a 10 bolt rear end. Most of the electrical system works OK; it does not have windshield wipers. Overall, the body is in fairly nice shape but it does have a bit of an amateur quality paint job. There is some bondo on the roof of the car from what appears to be a medium size dent that was not properly worked by the body shop. The cab corners are fairly decent but not totally rust free(small areas needing repair). There is also a couple other small areas on the body that were obviously a victim of poor workmanship. It has a very solid, rust free frame. The bottom of the passenger's door was apparently cut up for something(see photo) by the previous owner. I have a clear title in hand and true mileage is unknown. However, all in all it is a fairly decent truck that has had a lot of work done to it; the pictures tell it all. I have a very fair reserve, so happy bidding!
I will sell worldwide and I will store the truck for a reasonable period of time until the buyer can make shipping arrangements. The truck is SOLD AS IS with no warranties offered or implied. I highly encourage personal inspection or you are more than welcome to send an agent on your behalf; no hidden agendas here. The truck is also listed for sale locally; meaning that I reserve the right to end the listing at any time.
Please feel free to ask questions and I will make an attempt to reply as quickly as possible.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible gives us a couple of looks
Sat, 02 Mar 2013Put away your pixel paintbrushes, kids. Pack up your Photoshop. This is the real-deal 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible in its first official images. The droptop Chevrolet will roll into the bright lights of the Palexpo exhibition at next week's Geneva Motor Show, a four-wheeled statement of intent that General Motors is serious about taking its Corvette franchise global.
Chevy isn't providing anything in the way of further details with these two shots, but we've learned at least a couple of things about the car shown here. First off, the example seen in these images is fitted with the optional Z51 Performance Package - something that isn't immediately evident because there's no sign of the coupe model's prominent ductwork on its rear haunches. In order to accommodate the power folding hard tonneau cover, the vents that feed the transmission and differential coolers have been relocated to the underside of the car. The dark paint color on this example also does a good job of muting the contrasting black front fender vents and hood opening - Z51-spec design details that have proven to be somewhat controversial.
One other thing to note: These two shots also display the Stingray wearing different alloy wheels than the split five-spoke design shown at the hardtop's Detroit Auto Show unveiling in January. The simpler, thin five-spoke wheels should do a good job of showing off the Z51's upgraded brakes, and they'll be optional on the coupe as well.
GM laying off 500 workers to slow Chevy Sonic production
Sat, Oct 24 2015Due to slow sales of the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, General Motors is cutting a shift at the Orion Township plant that builds the pair. The move lays off about 500 workers, but most of them are expected to get offers to transfer to other factories, Automotive News reports. The move came just a day after GM announced adding 1,200 employees to the Detroit-Hamtramck plant. GM has been trying all year at the Orion Township factory to align production of the Sonic and Verano with their demand. The automaker first attempted idling the plant several times and eventually resorted to laying off about 100 workers. It also reduced the production rate there. With the huge rise in popularity of crossovers, demand for the plant's small cars is on the downturn. According to Automotive News, there's currently a 116-day supply of Sonics and 100 days of Veranos to sell. Delivers tell a similar tale because the Chevy is off 35.2 percent from January to September, and the Buick does little better with a 27.2 percent drop from the same period last year. While the situation at Orion Township might look rough now, big things are on the horizon. Soon, the new Chevy Bolt electric vehicle will be built there when it hits the market around 2017. Plus, the plant will also get a $245-million upgrade and 300 new jobs for another, unannounced vehicle.
GM Halts Sale Of Most Chevy Cruze Models
Fri, Mar 28 2014General Motors has told dealers to stop selling some 2013 and 2014 Chevrolet Cruze compact cars. But the company won't say why. Dealers say stop-sale orders are routine and almost always made to fix a safety problem. They received the order in an e-mail Thursday, but no reason was given. The move comes as GM deals with fallout from a delayed recall of 1.6 million older small cars to fix an ignition switch problem. The company says the switches can slip out of the run position and shut down the engine. That causes loss of power steering and brakes and disables air bags. GM says the problem has been linked to 31 crashes and at least a dozen deaths. Spokesman Greg Martin says he has no details on the Cruze.
