Paint is really good except for some slight fading spots on hood and very minor scratches on the running boards where people have placed their feet getting in and out."

The BEST of both worlds...

LOOKS GREAT, but not a trailer queen your afraid to drive. 

Kept completely original like grandpa's, but not abused....dependable and fun!

This is an original well cared for Time capsule. In 1955 the body styles changed in midyear. This was the "advanced series" body style that was very popular from 1947-1955. 

Well maintained, *everything works and works as it should.  (Vacuum wipers are weak, I use rain-ex).

The amazing thing is the low mileage* and excellent overall condition. NO rust in the floors cab corners, (drivers side has been repaired), or other areas
where these trucks are known to rust.  I have included many pictures detailing how extremely solid this truck is.

Engine : Original 235 6cyl.  New plugs, points, tune-up and oil change in the last 200 miles. Great compression. RUNS STRONG!

Transmission: Original 3-speed on the column. Shifts beautifully, No issues. 

All electrical, gauges, brakes, horn, windows, doors, work as they should. This Truck passed Missouri State inspection, is licensed, insured,
and driven on nice days. 

Interior shows slight wear but is all original.

Truck was repainted it's original factory color, which I believe is called Ocean Green. The firewall is also that original color, was NOT repainted,
and still has the inspection number 85 chalk mark in the center behind the valve cover.  HOW COOL IS THAT!

 I would drive it anywhere.  We have plans to take it on a 80 mile antique auto tour later this month if it doesn't sell. The grandkids love it!

* I cannot guarantee the 54,691 miles to be absolutely correct...but I believe that it is.

CLEAR TITLE     CASH OR WIRE TRANSFER ONLY!     Serious buyers may contact me at 816-729-8513            NO TRADES 

Note my positive feedback so that you may bid confidently.     No warranty implied....However it is a wonderful,well cared for and dependable truck.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado tows in new configurator, microsite

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

Judging by your continued enthusiastic response to configurator notices, dear reader, you enjoy speccing out new cars as much as we do. Better still, there tends to be even more ways to personalize, configure and bloat theoretical MSRPs on full-size trucks as there are with more ordinary passenger cars. In addition to trim level, engine and transmission choices, truck buyers usually have to specify items like cab configuration, bed length, number of driven axles, tow packages, gear ratios and all sorts of bits and bobs.
That's why we're pleased to see the DIY specification utility for the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado come alive so soon after this week's Detroit Auto Show debut. While the configurator lacks pricing (General Motors hasn't announced numbers yet) and full options, you can still spec out your half-ton rig, and even print it out or email it to your friends. Beyond the configurator, the new model-specific site is pretty cool, too, with various videos and closer looks at the truck's new features.
The new Chevrolet pickup range won't be on dealer lots until sometime this summer, so whether you're a building contractor, an avid sportsman or just a guy or gal that loves full-size trucks, you might want to check out the link below to keep your appetite whetted. If you're more of a Sierra fan, well, it looks like you're going to have to wait a while - GMC hasn't updated its site yet.
