1957 chevy pickup
I bought this truck with intentions to build it, I since found another truck so here it is for sale.
It is a roller, no motor or transmission. The cab and bed are separated from the chassis so the steering and brakes are not hooked up. For the purpose of it was gona be set on a new model frame. The fender wells were trimmed on the bottom to clear the independent suspension.
The body of the truck is in good condition with rust in the usual spots. The cab corners, drivers door, drivers step, and floor board have the worst rust. It will need a patch panel or two but they are very easy to find as these are common trucks with same problem.
The frame is the original 57 chassis. It does have the I beam front axle, and the stock rear. The rails are straight with no bends or rust. It was a v8 truck but motor and trans are not there.The 17" wheels and tires are off a late model chevy truck.
The trucks interior is 95% complete, but will definatly need work. The dash is near perfect, no sloppy holes has been cut in it. Most of the glass is cracked but all the parts are there.
I do have a title for it. This truck has all the good potential to be a bad rod. I will gladly answer any questions you have. Thanks and good luck.

Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check
Fri, 01 Mar 2013Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra introduced
GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
