1957 Chevy Stepside Pickup (from Deep South) on 2040-cars
Paris, Michigan, United States
|
This is a 1957 chevy 3200 stepside truck I bought from an 85 year old man north of Little Rock. it has 70,785 miles on the body but a more modern 1967 6cyl was put in it. The truck has never been in a northern winter or around salt! The wood in the bed is real good with no rot and the truck only has pin holes on the bottom of the front fenders and no filler I can find anywhere else. There is a dent on the front rt fender and smaller one on the rt rear fender. The tailgate has normal dings and dents in it. The floors and rockers have no rust and are original. This truck needs a paint job as you can see in the pictures but is a really close to rust free solid good driving truck. It shifts out like it is supposed to and the brakes stop good. I just put new good year white lettered tires on it and a new electric fuel pump, new gas sending unit, oil change. The engine has a knock in it when it gets good and warmed up but does not smoke. I do have another motor from my other 57 truck that is I think from 1957 but would have to check the numbers to be sure. I would include that with this auction if wanted. All the gauges seem to work fine and all are clear not cloudy. The vent glass in both doors has bubbles between the inside and outside of the glass. There is no cracked glass but the windshield has clouding around some of it. The chrome is nice on it and all there. The grill and bumpers are real good. This is just an exceptional truck that is even clean not crusty under the body and on the frame. I am listing this unpainted only because some people like to see things not covered up or hidden. I have tried to give an accurate description but it is so very hard on older vehicles so ask any questions you like. I want the buyer to be happy! Delivery is available to some places so ask first please.

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers
Fri, 11 Apr 2014
Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]
Mon, 27 May 2013If 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.
Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car
Wed, 20 Feb 2013We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above.
