Don't kick the tires. It runs, drives, and sounds just like a 1961 Chevrolet pickup. It has manual steering, manual brakes, and a truck 4 speed. It has dents as you can see in the pictures. Looks pretty good from 20 feet. This pickup goes down the road smoothly. It steers and brakes nicely and doesn't wander. I've put about a hundred miles on it testing it out. It runs very well, and sounds good, with dual exhaust, headers and a 650 Holley double pumper. Was told by previous owner that the engine is a 305. It will burn the tires if you wish to do so.
I will describe as best I can what it needs and defects as best I can. It has good solid floors and sheet metal. There is a small rust spot on the corner of the hood underneath on the right rear corner. Small rust spot on bottom corner of drivers door, and a hairline crack on the drivers floor. (see pictures). Other than that, the bottoms of the doors and everything else looks solid. It needs a carpet (or floor mat), Tires are about 50% . Looks like someone has removed a crossmember from the rear of the frame at one time. There is a hole cut in the dash for a stereo. I have it taped off. Gearshift lever has been shortened. Needs new window felt for side windows. Horn does not work. E-brake does not work. (needs cables). Someone pounded some dents in the drivers side header (don't know why).
It has a new windshield (small chip in it already), new door weatherstrips, and glovebox insert. All the lights work, and fuel gauge works. It has a posi rear end. I verified this by spinning the tires in gravel. Has low gears, about 2800 rpm at 60 mph. The previous owner said he put new rod and main bearings in the engine. It reads about 70 psi oil pressure cold and 35 hot at idle. The gauge is a cheap piece of junk, so I don't know how accurate that is.
I buy and sell old cars for a hobby, so there is no reason I'm getting rid of it. Just looking for something new. I don't know any history of this vehicle other than what was told to me by the previous owner. Please read my post carefully as I have described everything to the best of my knowledge. This is a very solid project vehicle that can be driven as is or restored to one's liking. Sold as is.There is no warranty on this vehicle and I do not guarantee anything on a 53 year old vehicle. It is a good vehicle for the mechanically inclined. Buyer pays shipping. I will consider delivery for a fee in a three hundred mile radius of Salem Oregon. Thanks and happy bidding.

Man surprises girlfriend with C7 Corvette
Mon, 07 Oct 2013How would you react if someone just showed up at your place of work with a new, 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, complete with all the trimmings? While a lot of us would likely be flipping out over the still rare sports car, it's a fair bet many more of us would be responding like Pattie here, whose boyfriend stopped by her work to show her her new C7.
Speechless and shocked as she seems, she does end up taking it out for a drive, despite claiming she wasn't really outfitted to handle the car's seven-speed manual transmission at the time. From the sound of the video, we got the impression that she knew the car was coming, just not that it was anywhere near ready for delivery. It also, as Pattie says, seems like her boyfriend is more excited about the car than she (which, can we blame him?). Take a look down below for the full video of this C7 Stingray delivery.

Autotrader picks best cars for 2015's college grads
Sun, May 31 2015Summer is here and the school season is winding to a close. That means millions of students will be graduating college and (hopefully) entering the workforce. For many, that will mean buying a new car suited to the new stage in life into which they will now be embarking. That can be a bewildering choice, especially for someone who's never bought a car before. Fortunately, Autotrader has come up with a short list of recommended cars – new and used – which it recommends to the graduating class of 2015. Among the site's top choices are some compelling crossovers and hatchbacks, including the Buick Encore, Chevy Trax, and Jeep Renegade, as well as the Honda Fit, Nissan Versa Note, Mazda3 and Fiat 500. Can't stretch to buying new, or don't see the point? Autotrader has also identified the Toyota Camry, Ford Fusion and even the Lexus IS as smart buys in the certified pre-owned category. "Any time someone goes through a major life change, such as graduating college, they need to determine if their current ride makes sense for their lifestyle, from both a financial and functional perspective," says Autotrader editor Brian Moody. "For example, while that hand-me-down SUV from your parents was nice when you turned 16, you may want to opt for a safer, more fuel-efficient car as you transition into the working world." Autotrader Names 10 Best Cars for Recent College Graduates ATLANTA, May 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- For many, graduating college is a milestone like no other – it represents a new chapter, a proud accomplishment and, fortunately or unfortunately, financial independence. Luckily for graduates who are in the market for a new car to suit their post-college lifestyle, Autotrader's expert editors say now is a great time to make a purchase, as dealerships are flush with affordable models that are fun, fuel-efficient and thoughtfully designed.
