1951 Chevrolet 3100 Stepside Half Ton Pickup Truck
The Perfect Driver
Offered for sale is an absolutely beautiful 1951 Chevrolet 3100 pickup truck. This Advance-Design truck is part of my personal collection and I will hate to see her go. I own several of these advance design trucks from the 50s and my intent is to restore them to original condition and to enjoy driving them around on the weekends. I am currently offering three of these trucks for sale because I'm simply running out of storage space and want others to enjoy them as much as I do. I love the restoration process and hope you appreciate my attention to original detail. Just look at the photos and you will see what I'm talking about. This is not a show truck, but it sure looks like one...it was restored to be driven by an old truck lover like you. I hope you like it as much as I do.
This nice old truck was restored in 2007, and is the perfect driver. It has a very strong 231 CID Thriftmaster engine and a 4 speed manual transmission with floor shifter. It is equipped with a "granny" gear like old tractors used to have. I start out in 2nd gear which is geared similar to 1st gear on a column-shifted three speed tranny. This truck has so much torque that it could pull a stump ot of the ground...which incidentally is exactly what it was designed to do.
Also included is a new oak bed with polished stainless steel hardware. I also like the side bed rails and whitewall tires, both of which give it a town & country feel. It's got new paint, trim and moldings and a new floor covering. Did I mention there's NO RUST and a clean undercarriage? I tried to stay as original with this beauty as I could, including the 6 volt electrical system. It starts right up with no smoke and the transmission shifts smoothly.
Everything works on this fine truck except the driver...I'm retired. But you could drive this truck every day to work and it wouldn't let you down. And you'd better get used to adding some time to your trips when you're in this one, because you'll spend lots of time talking to folks about what a great truck she is...inside and out, top to bottom.
This vehicle is available for inspection at my storage unit in Birmingham, Alabama. Please call Scott @ 615-594-8657 to set up an appointment or with any questions that you may have about this fine truck.
TERMS:
Payment will be made in full via wire transfer or certified funds with 72 hours of the end of the auction. A $500 non-refundable deposit is also required via PayPal. Worldwide delivery is also available. Please call for quotes.
Good Luck!

2014 Chevy Silverado High Country spied wearing trappings of new luxury trim
Wed, 03 Apr 2013Spy photographers have spotted the new Chevrolet Silverado High Country and GMC Sierra Denali out on public streets for a little testing. From the looks of things, the Silverado will receive a much-differentiated front fascia along with special badges and those honking 20-inch chrome wheels. Expect to find a more posh interior as well. Likewise, the Sierra Denali will wear a tweaked nose with the familiar Denali bling. The one of the GMC trucks spotted here rolls on 21-inch gunmetal wheels instead of the 20-inch chrome pieces of the High Country.
Word has it both trucks will go on sale after the Texas State Fair this summer. While General Motors hasn't said for certain what we can expect to find under the hood, we'd be surprised to see anything outside of the range of engines found in the standard Silverado and Sierra models. That means buyers should be able to get their hands on the efficient, 23-miles per gallon 5.3-liter V8.
Callaway debuts its new C7 Stingray at National Corvette Museum
Fri, 02 May 2014Callaway showed off its first tuned version of the 2014 Corvette Stingray at the National Corvette Museum last week, giving the rampant enthusiasts of America's sports car a look at the roughly 620-horsepower, supercharged rocket.
Unlike the Corvette SC610 we showed you back in January, this Stingray packs a fair bit more oomph. Horsepower is only up ten ponies, but torque has jumped from 556 pound-feet to "at least" 600 pound-feet. Neither horsepower nor torque is official quite yet, although Callaway is expecting to know just what its creation can do once testing and validation is completed later this month.
The 6.2-liter, supercharged V8 now boasts a new, three-element intercooler, which Callaway claims only allowed the inlet air temperature to increase by ten degrees Fahrenheit during dyno runs. Previous designs saw a 35-degree-Fahrenheit jump. The exhaust system has also been fettled with, and now is even less restrictive.

There once was a time when Daewoo was one of the biggest companies in South Korea. It was larger than both LG and Samsung, and second only to Hyundai. But these days the name is all but gone.
