Been looking for one.

I'll bet the guys will find something, and soon.  They like a good hunt!

Oh I like that first one...nice.

I've seen the ones on eBay. Looking for something that might need a little work, but is a solid driver as is.

I saw the ones on cars for sale before. I felt they were way over priced. The first link, I sent a message to the owner. I love how people say, but it's been clear coated, no chance of rust  lol Thanks

Saw this one on Offerup. Lots of pics but i dont think its what you really want.

57' Chevy Long bed stepside is on my list. Going to body swap it onto my dads old truck. 57 was his birth year.

Very strange intake and carb setup...I am not sure what I am even looking at in the picture

[Gary Lewis]

That is a bizarre intake.  

[PetesPonies]

Yeah not a flat bed. One just sold on ebay. It went for $6200, I didn't think that was bad. It needed a lot of interior work, but mechanically and the exterior were fine.But it was in Vegas. That would be a haul . .but a good reason to go back to Vegas for a couple days  :)

[PetesPonies]

I went and looked at one this past weekend. In the pics, it had issues, but was much worse. It was a complete and total redo . .take every panel off and restore each and everyone part of it  :)  Lots and lots of bondo, so worse than it appears,. So I'm still looking . . might go for a 65/66 F100 too.

There is a 57 shorty sitting in a guys driveway 3 miles from me. Has patina look. No front bumper. Best I can tell its in pretty good shape. No for sale sign. It moves around in his driveway. I can inquire about it for you if you want.

[PetesPonies]

Appreciate the offer, but I bought something. Not a '57, couldn't pass up this sweet '64.

[Rembrant]

That's a gorgeous truck Pete! I love it!

What is the nickname of this body style? "Slick"?

I know the style before it was the "Fridge", and it was followed by the "Bumpside"...

PS: What engine is that with the distributor at the rear?...

[Gary Lewis]

Yes, that's a beautiful truck!  Doesn't look like it needs much work, but what are your plans for it?

[PetesPonies]

Would like to add PB, some type of OD/trans ( would love to find one of the original type cable activated OD units. But I'm sure super $$$ and kinda funky to operate). Add the Ford lettering back to the tailgate, etc. The engine is a 292, last year for the Y-Blocks.I have a softness in my heart for YBlocks. I have a 312 in my Bird.
