Beautiful 1959 Chevy Apache 3100 Fleetside currently located in Austin Texas, Fitted with a Camaro front end clip w/ front disc brakes. 350 Chevy w/ 4 bbl carb, headers, and custom exhaust. Runs and sounds great and starts first time even when I left it standing once for two weeks. New battery, new MSD ignition system – wires & plugs, timing and tune-up in 2013. Automatic transmission with shift on the column. New tires and rims in 2013. Solid body with nice paint.

 

The 3100 Fleetside is the more collectible and rarer model, the tip of the spear if you will. This is a real head-turner of a vehicle and runs sweetly. I am selling to fund the restoration of another vehicle otherwise a very reluctant sale.

 

Prior to sale I will fit brand new bed planks a well as new chrome bumpers front and rear, new chrome grille and new chrome headlight covers. This is happening very soon and will all be included in the sale price. Call or e-mail for the full and surprising story on this truck. Best contacts are Duncan on my cell phone 0044 7066 184613 while I am out of Texas or my works colleague Mary on 1-713 932 1324. Find out why this is such a special truck!

Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs

Sun, 01 Dec 2013



The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.
