We bought this awesome 1957 Chevy Truck a few months ago and finally have the chance to go get him drug out of the barn. Mr. Herring was nice enough to sell us “Ol Blue” so we can save him and put him back on the road. Ol Blue has been in the Herring family for about 63 years, his dad bought him used in 1960 and was used up until about 1976. The last time the truck ran was in 1980, we plan to get it running at least once before we pull the motor and transmission. This is one awesome old step side pickup truck. Ol Blue was born in 1957 in Atlanta Ga. He’s got a 235ci 6 cylinder and a 3 speed on the column, or 3 on the tree. Blue is a 3200 series step side long bed truck. It’s 6 lug with the small back glass. The trucks got a little rust but worth saving for sure. We plan to LS swap Ol Blue with an aluminum block LS1 I’ve got. Tick Performance Polluter camshaft and some ported 243 heads. Most likely a 4L80e with a stall converter. But there’s always the option to throw a 4 speed Muncie M20 in there as well. Hopefully I can find a Chevy Colorado rear end with the G80 locker and a 4.10 gear. Those slotted mags look so good I need to find a little bit narrower rearend and would like disk brakes. So the Colorado or GMC Canyon is a good option.
