See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"You are viewing a very nice partially restored 1959 GMC dually flatbed. The title does say GMC but for all practical purposes all one will see is Chevy emblems upon inspection. I know this will be an issue for some purists but if you get past that you will see one beautiful truck in traditional trim that was put together very well. In fact, as far as I can tell most of the truck is original including motor, transmission, glass, split rims, ect. The pictures represent the truck very well and I think the entire cab is as good as one can be for the year. The bed itself is solid rough oak in a steel frame measuring just over 10 feet in length and just under 8 feet in width rail to rail with a wheelbase of 11 feet 4 in. Tires are 7.00 x 18 mounted on split rims and presently hold air, they are worn and show some weather checking and I simply do not drive to far from home with them. The truck starts, runs, and drives as you would expect of a 59 model. Please call 417-428-3663 with questions."

You are viewing a 1959 GMC dually flatbed finished in Chevy trim. I know to the purist that putting Chevy emblems on a GMC simply would not be proper but if you can get past that I believe you will see a beautiful old truck in era correct trim that is simply wonderful to look at. The pictures are recent and represent the truck well. As far as I can tell everything on the truck is original or era correct including all running parts, gauges, glass, motor, transmissiom and wheels. Lights, instruments, horn and heater work. Truck starts, runs, drives, and stops as a big old 59 should so please keep that in mind if you are not familiar with this type of truck. There is no power steering or brakes, no AC and no radio. Driving this truck is an experience from the past and having expectations of modern truck performance will leave one disappointed and is not really fair to the truck as I say it runs like it should for a 1959. The truck has been professionally and tastefully painted in a Peach base and cream roof and wheels. Original seat, headliner and visor have been professionally covered as well. The fuel tank is new but for some reason the fuel gauge always reads full. The 7.00 x 18 tires are mounted on split rims showing about 50% tread but are significantly weather checked and I would not advise travelling to far from home on them. Other than tires the truck does not need any immediate attention and is ready to enjoy as is. Please call with any questions at 417-428-3663

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
