1960 Chevrolet Truck Base 3.8l on 2040-cars

Year:1960 Mileage:88840

Phoenix, Maryland, United States

Phoenix, Maryland, United States

An all-original, 1960 Chevrolet C-10 Apache pickup.  A true survivor/thriver.  I am third owner, have had the truck for a little over a year.  First two owners lived in Midwest and truck only has light rust throughout.

I have loved owning this truck, but must sell her since we can only have 3 vehicles.  She runs, shifts, and rides great.  We have used her for light duty chores the past year (cleaning out basement, trips to dump, etc.).  The day I bought her, I drove over 700 miles from Missouri back East.

Passed Virginia inspection on second try after minor work (exhaust pipe replacement and lights adjusted).  Never been restored, she looks this good given how well all owners have maintained and garaged her.

In past year, I have gotten four new tires, had radiator and clutch replaced as well.  Three on a tree manual transmission, smooth and strong.  Also added two lap belts (than match the seat color) for safety.

Bed is all wood, have treated it with linseed oil to keep in good shape.  

Less than 89,000 miles.  Could be enjoyed as is, or restored.  Buyer may drive or tow, but plates need to stay. 

A bit more history for those interested.....truck purchased by a gentleman from Kevil, Kentucky in 1961 at the Cape Girardeau, Missouri Chevy truck dealership.  Truck was manufactured in St. Louis.  Garage kept, and mileage kept low over the years.  Upon his passing, truck was purchased by another gentleman from Bonne Terre, Missouri, and continued to be covered from the elements when not in use.  Truck then went to auction on eBay last year April, and I purchased and drove it back to Virginia.  Original owners manual and mechanical records will convey with truck.

2014 Chevrolet Impala [w/video]

Fri, 15 Mar 2013

Can A Fleet Queen Become a Fullsize King?
On paper, the Chevrolet Impala is a pretty strong seller, posting annual sales that have hovered right around 170,000 units for the last two years, but it only takes one trip to practically any rental car agency to discover where the majority of those sales have come from. In fact, General Motors told Autoblog that a full 70 percent of Impala sales last year went to fleet companies for things like rental cars and government vehicles. Logic tells us that this is neither good for resale values nor name equity, so Chevrolet is getting ready to roll out an all-new Impala with improved comfort, styling and technology, hoping to turn the tables on its retail-to-fleet ratio.
Chevrolet's sedans have come on quite strong in the last few months with the introduction of the Cruze diesel and the SS sedan, but while these will likely be low-volume sellers, there's more pressure for the new Impala to perform well as GM looks to slash fleet sales and compete with the wide variety of full-size sub-luxury sedans. Riding on a platform shared with the Buick LaCrosse and Cadillac XTS, the 2014 Impala will compete against the Hyundai Azera, Ford Taurus and Toyota Avalon on the more traditional side, while also looking to take a bite out of somewhat sportier models like the Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger twins and the Nissan Maxima. We headed to sunny San Diego to see if this totally new Impala can stand on its own without the assistance of fleet companies and rental agencies. [w/video

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes

Tue, 28 Aug 2012


Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
