| I am the 3rd owner of this 1957 Chevy pick-up, the first owner was a farmer near Kentland, Indiana. For years the truck was never even registered with the State of Indiana being a work horse it only left the farm to go to and from various different crop acreage. It was purchased from the farmer by the 2nd owner in 1996 who had the truck painted by Maaco, I purchased it in 2003 as is. It has the original 235" 6-cylinder and 3 speed manual transmission on the column. It's maximum speed is about 60 mph. The truck has about 67,000 miles on it, actually rides nice, it's a firm but smooth ride. I have a 1976 350" v-8 and turbo 350 automatic transmission planned for it. I am leaving the original suspension, just going through it and replacing all wear parts and replacing the 456 ring & pinion in the rearend with a 338. Using original parts, power steering and brakes will be added, all conversion to modern drive will be using factory installation for originality. |

| I rescued this 1958 Streamline 27' travel trailer out of St. Cloud, MN. I am the 2nd owner of it and very happy with it thus far. It now has new wheels, tires, brakes, bearings, leaf spring pins & equalizers. I am in the process of removing all of the oxidation & polishing the aircraft aluminum shell. It has 2 single beds, a fold out couch, stove, refrigerator & sink, water heater, complete bathroom with tub/shower, toilet & sink, 2 furnaces & air conditioning, all windows are louvered. Everything in this camper functions good, interior just needs some cleaning and new fabrics. |
