Summary:
Used 1957 Chevrolet Pick Up
Location:
Lakewood, CO
Description:
The truck is offered for sale having been with the current owner since 2009, where it had spent its life at that time entirely in California, hence no rust. It is a modified short block V8 crate 350cu.in engine tuned to 383, with a 4 barrel Edelbrock carburetor. Just about everything mechanical and electrical has been replaced and often improved. It was body off from front bumper to windshield for the front end installation including an independent front spring/coil suspension, power steering, a rebuilt rack and pinion steering with power assist added. Rear end is a carbon coated Ford axle with tubbed rear wells access and spacers, new shock absorbers and springs and the bed was replaced with a new red oak one. It comes with a bed tonneau cover and a full custom, all weather body cover. Tires are new Cooper Cobra, the cab seat and roof are reupholstered. All front bumper and grille parts are chromed and new, body repainted and striped. Driver's door lock needs attention and there are a few cosmetic issues but not essential, body has a few dimples. It has a new, larger capacity radiator wired with a thermostat to a cooling fan. An engine kill switch was added. A full list of work done is documented and is available as are all records upon sale. I am not a mechanic; all the work was carried out by professional classic vehicle experts and restorers. The total investment over the years far exceeds the asking price.What it is not: A showboat, not suited for any concours competition. What it is: A reliable "Daily Driver", starts on the button (new battery this year) and it always receives big rig driver's headlight flashes, thumbs up from other drivers and pedestrians, plus many appreciations at gas pumps or when seen in parking lots. Fun to own but now I am too old to continue, only reasons for selling is my age. Buyer can either collect in the Denver area or arrange for it to be shipped. Sold, "As Is" and "Where Is".
