This stunning 1959 Chevrolet Apache 3100 pickup received a ton of time and money. It's a labor of love that has
resulted in a high quality, exceptionally clean, classic truck that delivers muscle car V8 performance and modern
comfort. It's the kind of pickup you'd build if you had the time, patience, skills and money, but instead, this is
turnkey ready so you can start enjoying it immediately.
Chrome bumpers, a bright grille, and those trick parking lamp housings dress up the truck, taking it beyond a mere
tool, and into the realm of cool custom. And no vintage pickup is complete without a beautifully finished wood bed.

Be prepared for plenty more custom work when you open the door. It starts with the custom tan leather bench that
has been stitched so the driver and passenger can have individual comfort. The door panels do a great job of mixing
the upholstery and exterior colors so that the whole atmosphere flows nicely, from the tan seats, to the red dash.
Your left hand will love the Grant steering wheel with glossy wood rim, and your right may never want to leave the
Lokar-style floor shifter. You get a Classic Instruments gauge package, and while that already provides you with
plenty of info, this custom build wants you completely informed. Thus, there's a tach mounted on the tilt steering
column, as well as a trio of auxiliary readouts under the dash. This pickup was built to be good to you and your
friends with added comfort features such as ice-cold R134a air conditioning, supplementary insulation on the
firewall, and a vintage style AM/FM stereo with an auxiliary input for you modern music player hidden in the glove
box. Sound proofing and has been added as well as power windows but the existing handles are utilized so as not to
disturb the aesthetics.
With so much invested in the interior and exterior to make this a great car show companion, you better believe thee
was plenty of consideration under the hood, too. The crate 350 cubic-inch small block looks fantastic with the
Chevrolet Performance air cleaner and matching valve covers, tidy wires, fresh hoses, and expensive polished
pulleys. But beyond looking great, this motor is built to be a true all-around performer. It's a Chevy crate V8
that has been thoroughly gone through, and then added a mild cam, and a Holley Sniper Fuel Injection System with a
controller in the glove box that allows you to change the fuel delivery settings. There's only about 6,800 miles
on the whole custom build. So you know this enhanced V8 fires up easily, and thanks to the H-pipe Flowmaster
exhaust, everyone knows there's something special under the hood. But this Chevy's appeal goes beyond the motor.
You have an upgraded independent front suspension, front disc brakes, power steering, and a 700R4 four-speed
automatic transmission w/overdrive. Starting to get the picture on this one? It's the classically cool pickup you
can drive anywhere.

Buick Encore, Chevy Trax earn Top Safety Pick from IIHS [w/video]

Thu, Feb 12 2015

The Buick Encore has been a massive sales success practically from the moment it debuted, and Buick recently decided to increase production to keep up with demand for the premium compact crossover. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety recently put one to the test again, and the Encore earned a Top Safety Pick award. It's the first model from the brand to score the nod since 2013, according to the IIHS, and the rating also carries over to the 2015 Chevrolet Trax. The 2015 Encore scored a Good rating in all of the IIHS' evaluations, including the 40-mile-per-hour, small overlap front crash test. That was a big improvement over the previous model the institute tested, which scored a Poor result in the overlap test. In the first test, about 13 inches of the lower door hinge pillar came into the passenger compartment, and the steering wheel airbag moved too far to protect the dummy's head. Improvements for the latest model year showed six inches of intrusion this time, and the airbags caught the dummy's head well. The dummy's sensors also indicated a low risk of injury. The two CUVs missed out on the full Top Safety Pick+ because the IIHS scored the Encore as only having a basic front crash prevention system, and there was no such equipment for the Trax. To earn the highest mark, models need at least an advanced rating by the institute for this technology. Buick Encore, Chevrolet Trax earn 2015 TOP SAFETY PICK award ARLINGTON, Va. - A small SUV is the first vehicle from the Buick brand to qualify for a TOP SAFETY PICK award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety since 2013. The Buick Encore's newly introduced, lower-priced twin, the Chevrolet Trax, also qualifies for the honor. The Encore's award follows improvements to the SUV's structure for better small overlap front protection. The 2015 model earns a good rating in the small overlap test. In contrast, the 2013-14 Encore rated poor in the test. The driver's space was seriously compromised with intrusion measuring as much as 13 inches at the lower door hinge pillar. The dummy's head barely contacted the front airbag before sliding off the left side, as the steering column moved to the right. The side curtain airbag deployed too late and didn't have sufficient forward coverage to protect the head. In the latest test, the driver space was maintained reasonably well, with maximum intrusion of 6 inches at the door hinge pillar and instrument panel. The dummy's movement was well-controlled.

2016 Chevy Camaro coming on May 16

Mon, Mar 16 2015

We officially have a date for the arrival of the sixth-generation Chevrolet Camaro. Fans of Chevy's Mustang fighter should look forward to May 16, and if they're in the Detroit area, they'll want to make their way down to Belle Isle, home of the Chevy Indy Dual in Detroit. We still don't have a great deal of information on the new Camaro, aside from what's been gleaned in spy shots and the like, although Chevy's press release was accompanied by the image shown above. That, friends, looks a lot like the Camaro's badge of old. Its presence here could be an indication that an old logo is set to return to production. That's because what Chevy is planning could best be described as a jamboree, or Camaro-palooza, if you prefer, rather than a typical unveiling. Chevy is inviting up to 1,000 Camaro fans to descend on Belle Isle for a day-long event that will offer up a lot more than their first look at the sixth-generation muscle car. Fans can hot lap the Belle Isle circuit from the passenger's seat of a new Z/28, check out a Camaro "museum," featuring "the most significant vehicles from the brand's history," and chat with some of the Camaro's designers and engineers. "This will be an event Camaro fans will not want to miss," Camaro marketing manager Todd Christensen said in a statement. "This is only the sixth time we have introduced an all-new Camaro. We wanted to share the moment with the customers and fans who have helped make Camaro both America's favorite performance car for the past five years, and a cultural icon since 1967." We'll almost certainly be on hand for the debut (and you'll absolutely be able to get all the details here). And as we said, if you happen to be in the Detroit area in mid May, you can register to attend the unveiling. All you need to do is head over to Chevy's dedicated website for the sixth-generation Camaro and sign up for the big event, on Saturday, May 16. Scroll down for the full press release. 2016 Camaro Drops Cover on May 16 in Detroit DETROIT – Chevrolet is inviting fans to see the all-new 2016 Camaro on Saturday, May 16, in Detroit. The sixth-generation Camaro will cap a day-long celebration on Belle Isle, the 982-acre island park that is home to the Chevrolet Detroit Belle Isle Grand Prix May 29-31. "This will be an event Camaro fans will not want to miss," said Todd Christensen, Camaro marketing manager. "This is only the sixth time we have introduced an all-new Camaro.

Is this GM's next electric crossover?

Thu, Nov 16 2017

GM made headlines this week when CEO Mary Barra presented the company's electrification and automation plans at the Barclays Global Automotive Conference in New York. "We are committed to a future electric vehicle portfolio that will be profitable," Barra said, which could be taken as a jab at Tesla. In the presentation ( PDF here), though, we see a new vehicle in a slide titled "Leveraging existing BEV platform to expand in near term." The vehicle, seen above, accompanied the captions "New CUV entries" and "two entries by 2020." Is this a sneak preview of an upcoming electric crossover from GM? The image seems too realistic and intentional to be a random placeholder. If this is, indeed, an upcoming battery-electric CUV based on the Bolt, the question remains: Will it be a Chevy or a Buick? It has no visible badging, but it shares DNA from both brands. As Inside EVs points out, though, it does bear a resemblance to the Chevrolet FNR-X concept unveiled in Shanghai earlier this year. With two CUVs on the way, it's not unthinkable that there could be a version for each brand. In addition to this slide, the presentation includes plans for an "All new multi-brand, multi-segment platform" launching in 2021. The all-new modular battery system will cost less than $100 per kWh, providing higher energy density and faster charging. The platform will host at least nine different vehicles, including a compact crossover, seven-seat luxury SUV and a large commercial van. GM has said it will launch 20 new EVs by 2023, and that it targets 1 million EV sales per year by 2026. Many of those sales will be in China. Related Video:
