Up for auction : 1957 chevy 4x4 truck. The truck is mounted on a 1979 GMC Jimmy chassis, All original running gear with the exception of a newer Mr.Good Wrench crate motor (350 ). The cab and bed were mounted properly with new pro-comp body mounts. The TH 350 was professionally rebuild about 2 hundred miles ago. New dual exhaust, new rear driveshaft, new E-Z wiring kit, new turn/brake lights, new parking lights, seat has been recovered, not a great job but is comfortable. A used caddy telescopic/tilt column, could use a new steering wheel , but is totally useable at this time.... New aluminum manifold and new 650 carb with electric choke. Starts on the first hit and runs down the road straight.. The tires have lots of tread but are badly weather checked, 35" tires will fit nicely and be even more of a compliment to this historic icon.... All lights works, All new tinted glass ( not that cheap film ) door weatherstripping included but not installed at this time.. (doors rattle on dirt roads ) Horn and odometer and gauges ARE NOT HOOKED UP YET, although the high beam indicator and turn signals are functional.
I want to stress this truck was not built to be a SHOW truck, not that it couldn't be, It does have some minor rust through , but in my opinion , easy fixes. The truck looks better at 50' feet then up close, but gets a lot of thumbs up and waves. I would drive this 57 anywhere if it had tunes and the door weather stripping installed.... I have placed the reserve low enough that that I feel the new owner can justify a couple of rear fenders , install the new bed wood and stainless steel strips ( i will provide) and have it painted and still be way under market value...
Chasiss : all 1979 running gear, dana 44 front axle, 12 bolt rear end, 203 transfer case, TH 350 transmission, 6 lug, rear gas tank. A 4" rancho lift kit was install by the Jimmy owner.
Feel free to call if you have sincere interest in this truck, Ray @ 970-309-4526, this truck is in Colorado.

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape
Fri, 12 Apr 2013Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.
GM takes heat for aborted Silverado riff on 'Boston Strong' at World Series
Thu, 31 Oct 2013During game five of the World Series, Chevrolet was set to do a spot of marketing for the 2014 Silverado - fans at Busch Stadium in St. Louis would hold up placards that spelled out the words "Silverado Strong," a theme that Chevy has been promoting since the Silverado's launch with the song "Strong," by Will Hoge. The St. Louis promo was ultimately called off, though, over concerns that it'd be insensitive to the visiting Boston Red Sox. (You can see the image of what the stunt would have looked like above, courtesy of one timely Reddit user.)
Now, the Busch Stadium stunt might not have been a big deal, had the St. Louis Cardinals not been playing the Boston Red Sox. Following the tragic events in Boston during the marathon back in April, the phrase "Boston Strong" gained traction among the city's citizens, especially at sporting events. So, you can imagine that Chevy's appropriation of the phrase might not sit well with some fans.
The stunt was ultimately shelved after images of the signs went viral before the game, leading to a bit of a public backlash. Chevy spokesperson Michael Albano said of the promo that it was meant to show the brand's "commitment to baseball and its fans." But after the images went viral, the company "realized there was the possibility that we may offend some of the very fans we were trying to honor," Albano told Automotive News via email.
