This is an original barn find recently purchased from an estate in Central Texas (Leakey). This pickup was last licenced in 1976. The pickup truck is very original. including motor,mirrors, wheels, bias ply tires, tailgate, paint, wood bed. It is a real survivor of 52 years. The truck starts, but is not driveable. There is no battery in the truck. Part of the exhaust pipe is missing. The break pedal goes to the floor and fluid comes out of the inside of the wheels. I can find a break in only the drivers side window. The windshield which is a wrap around design seems to have survived without any cracks. The pickup is originally Red and has alot of surface rust. There is only one rust hole that has come throught the metal depicted in the photgraphs submitted.I have a bill of sale on the pickup. The title has been lost. I have paperwork to file for a lost title with the State of Texas. Also bonding title papers. This truck is so original it would be a candidate for a very nice restoration. Many of the parts for this vehicle are available in the LMC truck parts magazine which is included. Also included are 2 original 1961 Sales brochures of this 1961 Chevrolet Apache. I will post 24 photos of this pickup. Please check on shipping cost if you intend to place a bid. This auction will have No Reserve beyond the auction starting price. I will answer additional questions if you have any. Thank you for looking.

Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.
The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else
Sat, 16 Feb 2013The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.
Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
