1958 Chevrolet Other Pickups None on 2040-cars
Vancouver, Washington, United States
1958 Chevy Apache step-side pickup truck. He has a lot of money into it, but our
reserve is very fair. The foam board was put in the one pic to cover the license plate. Now... let's get down to
specifics:
Engine - lightly built Chevy 383 stroker. My son bought the engine as a long-block, and it was built by a local
engine builder located in Everett, WA. It is not a racing engine, but it has a great sound to it with a mild cam
and runs flawlessly. All new headers, intake manifold, Holley carb, water pump, alternator, and a complete new
exhaust system. The motor has approximately 1000 miles on it, so it is just about broken in. No leaks anywhere!!
Transmission - TH400. Shifts great and also has new driveshaft hooked up to it.
Chevy rear end with a Ford front. Disc brakes up front and drums in the rear. The disc breaks really bring it
down to a stop! It unfortunately does NOT have power steering.
The body is in very nice shape, but there is one very light ding on the passenger front fender that you can notice
when you look for it. It can probably be removed with the right equipment. We do not know if there is any bondo
in the body, as my son bought the truck but then had to replace the motor. The lines on the body are very straight
and no waviness when you look down the sides. The paint is not perfect, but we would probably grade it an 8 on a
10 scale. He was told it was originally a Texas truck, but we never confirmed that. He also had new wipers
installed, and they do work. It also has a new wood bed installed out back.
The interior is extremely comfortable with what we think is light cream faux-leather and really contrasts against
the black body. It really pops! New Auto Meter gauges, but the speedometer is a little off. All side windows are
new glass. It has a Kenwood CD/bluetooth sound system with (4) speakers behind the seat.

Mon, 20 Jun 2011Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]
Thu, 07 Feb 2013For 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.
