1959 Chevy Apache 32 Stepside Shortbed/Flatbed 1/2 ton, 327 Corvette Engine,V-8,Its been a daily driver up to a few years ago. Because of my wife's medical condition in the last years and my care for her it's only been started a few times a year and moved around the property. It needs only a tie rod bar ( cheap fix) to get blasting around again. I bent bar when battery was dead and I towed it on the property and it got caught on a stump and bent it. The 327 engine is strong with the Apache at times seemingly like she's on the warpath trying to keep her rear end on the ground. Apache has clean flatbed conversion. In this auction I am including a Chevy Apache Stepside Shortbed with tailgate and bumper which had been converted to a trailer. This package will make a nice restoration project which was my intention for the old girl but my wife took ill and my time has gone to my wife as a full-time caregiver with three children. Frame on Apache is good being straight and solid. The truck is a Idaho truck located in Coeur d Alene,Idaho which is 8 miles from Spokane,Washington. This is a NO RESERVE AUCTION for the Apache Truck and the Apache Stepside Shortbed Box Trailer. Everything is sold As Is with a $500 nonrefundable deposit paid through PayPal needed within 24 hours of end of auction. Full payment is due within seven days from the close of auction and prior to pick up/delivery. Payment is to be cash, cashier's check from major bank or bank wire transfer. Buyers out of the US see my sellers payment instructions on this auction page. I am a very reasonable person so if pickup arrangements are made in a timely fashion I will work with you. This Apache is a very nice piece to restore, don't miss out on this one! The best way to contact me is by phone for I am in the mountains on dial-up Internet which I sometimes do not check daily. Please feel free to call me with any questions at: (304)488-9661.

This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.
GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles
Fri, 04 Jan 2013As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.

NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
