1958 Hales Speed shop Apache Ls Bagged
One previous owner big back window Texas truck. Complete frame off professional rebuild with all new components.
Absolutely no compromises or short cuts.
The truck was built by Hales Speed Shop. This is the sixth Hot Rod he has built for me and definitely the best. If
your familiar with Hales then you know the level of quality and craftsmanship they put into their builds (you can
check out build pics of the truck on their Instagram page). If your not familiar check them out. This is an
opportunity to get a new build save a lot of money and leg work, without a two year wait.
This truck was true local barn find. The old man bought it new in Los Angeles in 1958 and drove it out to Texas in
64 to the small town I live in. In the early 90s he decided to restore it so he took the glass out, pulled the bed
off and started sanding on it. That's how it sat in his barn for the next twenty plus years till I bought it.
Chassis and suspension: Custom Hales speed shop using a highly modified Fat Man Fab front and Custom 3 link rear.
Air ride all custom, Vivair compressors, Firestone bags, Semi Brake line fittings. Rides like a Caddy, Lays Frame
and doesn't drag. I can't express how great this truck rides and drives. This is not some off the shelf air ride
kit but a Professionally designed, engineered, and built suspension system. It truly rides and drives better than a
new car and is built to last.
Engine and Drivetrain: New LS 6 with custom ground Comp cam, valve springs, edlebrock victor jr intake, 72lb
injectors, 1200cfm throttle body. Vintage air front runner accessory drive. Transmission Built 4l80 with billet
converter. New Curry 9" rear with 35 spline axles and 3:73 Posi. Drivetrain was built to handle 1000hp and be
bulletproof.
Interior: Full Custom leather interior by Neil Cloud. Cab covered in dynomat and dynofoam. Ididit column with
shifter, shrunk down 60 Impala wheel. Full Dakota digital gauge pod with analog read out. Custom Vintage air A/C
with largest box they make(will freeze you out). Electric wipers, Complete wire harness , One piece side glass, all
windows, seals and rubbers replaced.
Paint and body: fleet side bed with new professionally handmade arrow trim. Bed floor custom fabbed oak and steel
bed floor. All chrome on entire truck either replaced with new or re-chromed and painted. Most visible bolts
replaced with stainless. Body stripped down and painted gloss black ( single stage). Nice driver quality paint
nicer than most rods.
Tires and Wheels Bfg Silvertowns wide whites on Wheel Smiths Chrome steelies with spider caps.
I drive my Hot Rods everyday and that is what this truck was built for. This truck is completely professionally
built from the ground up with the best new components out there. It was built to run hundreds of thousands of miles
trouble free. It will smoke the tires at any speed and get 25mpg at 85 on the highway. This is not a trailer queen
show truck. It is beautiful, but it is also the most Badass Apache out there that you can drive coast to coast.
It's basically like having a brand new corvette with a 58 Apache body.

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video
Mon, 11 Feb 2013If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.
Watch the live reveal of the 2014 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra [UPDATE]
Thu, 13 Dec 2012UPDATE: The trucks have been revealed. Click here for all of the official details.
As promised, Chevrolet and GMC are offering a live webcast of the world premiere for the all-new 2014 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500. After being teased with spy shots and blurry images like the one above for ages, now is the time to see the trucks in the metal, for real (well, as 'real' as it gets on a webcast, at any rate).
Shift your eyes down just below to see the reveal as it happens, starting at 9:30 AM EST. We anticipate having loads of images full technical information to share after the webcast, too, so truck aficionados should stay tuned. We'll also be bringing you live images of both trucks too, when we see them on the show floor at next month's Detroit Auto Show.
GM won't pay owners of recalled cars for lost value
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Kenneth Feinberg, the man in charge of the General Motors compensation fund dealing with the its widespread ignition switch woes, has issued an informal, two-letter response to the plaintiffs in more than 70 lawsuits seeking redress for lost resale value of their Cobalts: "No." The cases were recently combined into one, but Feinberg told The Detroit News that the fund will deal "only with death and physical injury claims," and that "perceived diminished value" will get no consideration.
ALG, the firm specializing in establishing residual values, determined that Cobalt owners had lost $300 compared to the segment competition and doesn't envision any long-term effects from the recall situation. Feinberg's statement comes in advance of public details on how the compensation fund will work and adheres to GM's long-held position on the matter. The company has already asked a judge to throw out such suits using the pre-bankruptcy defense, even as it stopped using that defense in cases of injury and death.
With plenty of potential gain from the GM suit, however, don't expect the plaintiffs to give up yet. When Toyota was sued for the same reason during the unintended acceleration debacle, it eventually settled the case for between $1 billion and $1.4 billion just to get it over with. Since the 85 law firms involved in the Toyota litigation took home more than $250 million of that total, we shouldn't expect the attorneys to give up on a GM payout, either.
