1957 Chevrolet Pickup in excellant shape, the truck was painted in 1998 The paint on the outside looks fantastic other than the clear coat pealing in sections, inside the cab is pealing from the primer. The entire underneath was stripped, painted and new springs and shocks. The engine compartment was painted black. It has a 350 Cid engine that was rebuilt in 1999 it has an accel coil, torker intake, carter carburetor, headers, etc. Turbo 400 transmission was rebuilt with a shift kit and star floor shifter. The rear end is solid, the truck RUNS really, really good.
The body and chassis on this truck is in excellant shape, the lower rockers had been repaired, the cab and cab floors, steps, bed and bed steps, tailgate, hood, grill, bumper are all original and in excellant shape. the entire bed is almost mint, tail gate is like new. No rear bumper but I have the original brackets and flat bar hitch. I think the rear tail lights are aftermarket? All the other lights are original. The bed wood will need a few pieces shown in picture, a piece of plywood and new bed mat was put in to preserve the floor. The original owner had put fiberglass front fenders, he was going to tilt the front end and never did anything else; I didnt even know they were fiberglass untill he pointed it out. I think they are nicer than the original steel fenders. The glass looks original, no chips or cracks. The seat was completely redone and still in great shape.
All the factory gages, dash tach all work and look great, The front lights work and rears dont, I will look at the wiring or bulbs. The wiring should be cleaned up a bit.
I have tried to describe the truck as accurately as I can. I was going to just drive the truck and work on it in my spare time, my body guy was going to repaint the engine compartment and inside the cab and re-clear the truck and it would really be a nice ride. I just dont have the room to park all my projects and decided to sell a few.
The rims and tires are in good shape and i have four extra steel rims that go with the truck, the rears are extra wide and skinnier fronts, they looked really good on the truck but the tires were shot.
Feel free to call me with any questions or e-mail through e-bay; NO TEXT....

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles
Fri, 04 Jan 2013As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.

GM to trim Russian output, raise prices amid currency woes
Thu, Feb 5 2015General Motors is shutting down its factory in Russia's second largest city, St. Petersburg, from the middle of March until the middle of May as the country's currency, the ruble, continues to give economists fits. The ruble's value has plunged due not only to western sanctions, but a precipitous fall in oil prices. We knew these factors were already impacting the auto industry there, as Ford reported in its 2014 earnings statement, and now they're forcing GM to cut production at the factory, shown above, that is responsible for production of the Chevrolet Cruze and Opel Astra. Meanwhile, Automotive News is citing Russian outlet Kommersant as saying that GM has hiked its prices in the country by an average of 20 percent over the past two months. While a GM spokesman confirmed the St. Petersburg plant would be shut down for the two-month span reported by Kommersant and AN, he would not confirm the price increase.

GM admits goal of 500,000 EVs by 2017 won't be met
Sat, May 9 2015After a little over four years of Chevy Volt sales, General Motors has a better handle on how many people it expects will buy cars with plugs. And it's less than the company thought back in 2012, when then-senior vice president of global product development, Mary Barra, said that GM expected to sell 500,000 "vehicles with electrification" by 2017. In a sustainability report released this week, GM says that half-million vehicle target will not be met but that it still, "believes the future is electric." In the report, GM says that, "For our commitment to electrification, our forecasted outlook currently projects us, along with the broader automotive industry, falling short of expectations for 2017. ... We continue to aspire to our stated goal." GM's electric lineup includes the Volt, the recently popular Spark EV, the slow-selling Cadillac ELR and upcoming Malibu Hybrid, CT6 plug-in hybrid and eAssist technology in the Buick LaCrosse and Regal. GM says it has 180,834 electrified vehicles on the road in the US today. In 2013, it had 153,034; 95,578 in 2012, and 39,843 in 2011. The company's next big plug-in vehicle will be the second-gen Chevy Volt, which is coming to market later this year, followed by the 200-mile Bolt EV coming, we think, in 2017. GM Employees on Mission to Transform Transportation Sustainability report outlines vehicle and manufacturing progress; sets new targets 2015-05-07 DETROIT – General Motors' just-released sustainability report chronicles efforts by the company's 216,000 employees to live out GM's newly defined purpose and values by earning customer loyalty, applying meaningful technology advances and improving the communities where it does business. These actions – led by CEO Mary Barra – further drive sustainability into the company's culture through building safer and smarter vehicles with less environmental impact. "GM will take a leading role in the auto industry's transformation as it undergoes an unprecedented period of change," said Bob Ferguson, senior vice president, GM Global Public Policy. "From GM's labs to its assembly lines, our people are driving the world to a better place through improved mobility." The company believes the future is electric, with billions of investment to support an all-in-house approach to the development and manufacturing of electrified vehicles. It now counts 180,834 on the road in the U.S – up from 153,034 in 2013.
