1957 Chevrolet 3100 Pickup Truck 1/2 Ton Standard Cab Small Back Window Stepside on 2040-cars
Portland, Oregon, United States
|
This 1957 Chevrolet 3100 pickup truck originally came with a 6 cylinder engine. Years ago the original owner converted it to a V8 using all 1957 Chevrolet factory mounting hardware. Mounting is done by the use of two stud posts at the front of the engine suspended on rubber biscuits for vibration isolation. This is the way the Chevrolet factory mounted the engine on V8 equipped pickups in 1957. Engine is either a 265 or 283 and it turns over, but the bad news is it was stored without sufficient antifreeze and has either pushed out a freeze plug or cracked the block. Water leaks out from behind the exhaust manifold on one side so, it being hidden by the exhaust manifold I cannot see where it is coming from exactly. Good news is this truck has only resided on the west coast it's whole life (we don't salt the roads) and more good news is that it has resided inside a dry storage building since 1995 and therefore it does not have as extensive rusting as you will see in a lot of unrestored 1957 pickups. Sure it has rust in the usual places but take a close look at the attached pictures and you won't see cavernous rotting anywhere. Original factory installed granny gear 4 speed, rearend, and front suspension. Frame is original and unmolested. Radio space in dash has been cut on, but I am supplying an original Chevrolet mid dash section to repair this radio opening. This dash piece I am supplying is NOT a reproduction piece. Original matching 1970's era Aluminum dish mags, manufactured by US Mags come with the truck. Tires hold air but are shot. Aftermarket air cleaner comes with sale as well as a new JEGS wiring harness, that has been started to be installed but not nearly finished. Not an overly expensive harness but at least to the quality of the original wiring. The harness comes with the original JEGS supplied instructions. Hood opens and closes nicely, the hood hinges work flawlessly. Doors don't close as good as they should, would need hinge adjusting / repair to shut as well as they did on the assembly line in 1957. Typical glass damage from years of use, such as windshield wiper scrapes in the windshield, cracked side glass. Window regulator is bad on driver's door. Stock recovered seat inside cab. Rear bumper replaced with chrome step bumper many years ago, as well as a hidden heavy duty trailer hitch installed then as well. It has dual exhaust, looks like someone started to cut on inner fender wells to install headers but stopped cutting early on. To cure this problem I am including a very nice set of ORIGINAL unbent used CHEVROLET INNER FENDER WELLS, they are not reproductions. Usual dings and dents throughout, but nothing beyond the scope of a good body man. I cannot see why fenders and such would need replacing. This vehicle comes with a clear title, it is a regular title NOT a salvage or reconstructed title. VIN plate has never been removed or damaged in any way. VIN numbers on PLATE on door post matches the vin numbers on the frame by the steering box. Overall it would not be difficult to restore this back to original condition or if you choose to go in any other direction this would be a good, solid starting point. Any questions you can call me at 971-998-3530 or email me through eBay.

Camaro spy shots show subtly different grille, front fascia
Sun, 03 Feb 2013It looks like there some changes in store for the Chevrolet Camaro - the only thing is that we just don't know what Chevy has up its sleeve. Looking at these spy shots, we'd initially be inclined to think that there is just a minor facelift or a new special edition, but upon closer inspection, there are a few oddities about this car that definitely have us intrigued.
The most obvious difference on this prototype is the slightly restyled front fascia with a smaller lower air inlet and the two-bar grille. Then we get to some of the car's mysterious details. For starters, this fascia has the SS vent above the grille, but it looks to be blocked off. Granted this could just be a one-off piece used for testing. What really piqued our interest was at the rear of the car where it has quad exhaust outlets that are used on the ZL1. Could this be the LS7-powered Camaro that we reported on back in December?
At this point, your guess is as good as ours as to what we're looking at here, so let us know in the comments what you think this could be.
2016 Chevy Camaro leaked on CNBC
Fri, May 15 2015It seemed inevitable. Eventually some outlet would get access to fully uncovered pictures of the sixth-generation 2016 Chevrolet Camaro and let them loose early. Embargoes break. All. The. Time. And for this round, credit goes to CNBC's Squawk Box. The program, according to the GM Inside News forums, had been talking about the new Camaro "all morning," when it dropped a trio of images of the new muscle car. Consider this, then, our first full look at the 2016 Camaro, a car we detailed extensively earlier this morning. In general, the leaked images confirm much of what we discussed in that post regarding the car's looks – an evolved style, with a slim grille up front, a rounded tail, and a very short rear deck. Check out the leaked images, give our Camaro round-up a read, and strap in for tomorrow's big Camaro reveal.
