1960 Chevy Apache C-10 custom low-rider/dropped truck, hot rod 

Selling my 1960 Apache truck that I have been working on and need to sell.  This is one of the coolest trucks around and looks awesome in the sunlight.  The truck was painted 5 years ago using House of Kolor Candy Apple Red with a Silver base coat.  I cannot locate the color code(s) but will keep looking for them.  Overall the paint is in great shape.  I did put another coat of wax on in before it went into winter storage, but there are a few nicks in the paint (pictured) from hitting curbs when being lowered.

Truck has a Chevy 350 with 350 turbo tranny, new Edelbrok carb, new exhaust with dual pipes out the rear (sounds awesome).  New hydraulic tanks, valves and hoses that drop this truck down to within a few inches of the ground.  Both front and rear can raise/drop independently.  Marine grade batteries allow for plenty of juice to handle the load of the actuators.  Smoothie style Chevy hubcaps with beauty rings.  Tilt wheel.  Drum brakes all around.  I do not have the bed secured to the truck as I just put it back on for these pictures.  It is secure enough to transport the truck on a trailer after the sale.

This truck came from Nevada and has very little rust, bondo or other issues with the body and is structurally sound.  You can’t find trucks like this with this much work done for this price.  

The trucks runs.  It was upgraded to a 12v system a few years back, but I have a brand new wiring harness that will be included.  I was planning on re-wiring myself but never got the time to do it this past winter.  These trucks are easy to rewire and should not take too long to do.  Interior is in great shape and has a 2-tone bench seat and other items listed below.  Gauges work but some of the light bulbs for the cluster are burned out and need replaced in order to see them at night.  Cigarette lighter, wipers, headlights (including hi-beams) and tail lights work.  I have videos of the truck running, with lights on and raising/lowering of the suspension that I will email to anyone interested.

A few of the things that I wanted to mention in full disclosure:  Truck will need a drive shaft.  I did have the truck on the road last year but noticed the drive shaft needed replaced and parked it before winter hit to work on it.  The suspension will need finished and secured to the frame.  Small tranny leak from sitting around, but should be an easy fix.  Bed needs permanently mounted to the truck (we just placed it on for these pics).  Speedo works but occasionally hangs up for whatever reason for a mile or two then works again. Engine will need the choke connected. Rear bumper brackets and bumper will need to be installed since I never did that.  The front bumper is mounted already.  If I think of anything else I missed, I will update the listing.

This truck just need finished and it will be an awesome ride for someone looking for that classic low California truck look.  All of the hard work is done.  It does have its rattles and noises, but they all do.  This is not a new truck and will not drive like a new Silverado, please be aware that you are buying a custom truck.  I have a clear PA title in hand.  I will include anything and everything that I have for this truck to the new owner.

The NEW parts that I put on the truck include……NEW interior chrome (door handles, vent window locks rear view mirror, rear view mirror bracket, sun visors, sun visor brackets, tail lights, new dash knobs, door panel inserts, chrome cab light, tail lights, tail light rubbers, clear running lights, bezels, bulbs, wiper arms, chrome cowl pcs, chrome door handles, chrome tailgate hardware and chains, chrome fuel cap, fuel neck rubber.  Chrome bumpers and new bumper brackets are included.  Basically, anything chrome has been replaced within the last 6 months.

The NEW parts that still need to be put on by the new owner include: 16-circuit electrical harness, 16” Coker 3” wide white tires (still wrapped in plastic), rear bumper brackets, all door seals/rubbers.  Seat belts.  I am sure I am missing other items that are included, but let me know if you have any questions and I will get you all of the info I can give. 

I can help coordinate the shipping of this truck but all fees and shipping charges are the responsibility of the new owner.  I am not interested in any trades.  No warranty.  Feel free to ask any questions prior to bidding as this is a legal binding agreement to purchase this truck.  I will do my best to answer any and all questions that you may have, so ask away if you need clarification on anything prior to bidding.  BIDDERS WITH ZERO FEEDBACK MUST CONTACT ME BEFORE BIDDING OR I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO CANCEL THE BID.  Low reserve and buy it now price.

 

$500.00 deposit due within 48 hours of auction end.  Full payment due within 5 days of auction end.

2016 Chevy Volt will have more EV range, bigger battery

Tue, Oct 28 2014

Meet the new Volt, not the same as the old Volt. That appears to be the story when General Motors introduces the 2016 Chevy Volt at the Detroit Auto Show in January. Today we're getting some more details on the guts of the new plug-in hybrid, and it turns out they're going to be much improved from the current Volt, which first went on sale at the end of 2010. Sure, the first-gen Volt did get some improvements along the way (a slightly larger battery pack, lane departure warnings) but the new Volt – which will go on sale in the second half of 2015 – marks the first time GM has been able to return to the drawing board and really make the improvements that its customers want. That's how Larry Nitz, GM's executive director of vehicle electrification explained it to AutoblogGreen today when explaining the all-new Voltec extended range electric vehicle (EREV) powertrain. "In the Gen 2 is we gave the engine a little more power, a little more torque, a little more displacement, more capability." – Larry Nitz Nitz said that the new Volt will be better in almost every sense: a bigger battery, longer EV-only range, 20 percent better acceleration in the low speed range and higher overall efficiency. This is due, in part, to the Volt's two motors being able to both act as generators and power the car. As we noted this morning, the 2016 Volt will use a larger, 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, a version of which is already used in the Chinese-market Cruze. Nitz said that this has a number of benefits, including more power and quieter operation. "Some people would say, why did you make [the first-gen engine] so big. I would say, why did you make it so small?" he said. "It works good, our customers love it, but the reality is that if you go a little bit off and use the car a little harder, you can get the engine to need to operate at a higher speed. In an EV, that's quite noticeable. So, what we did in the Gen 2 is we gave the engine a little more power, a little more torque, a little more displacement, more capability and what it has marginally enabled is not only is it more efficient but it's also quieter." Nitz wouldn't talk about how the new powertrain might affect the two other products that use the Volt's underpinnings – the Cadillac ELR and the Opel Ampera – but if you've got a quieter option, we assume that's something ELR drivers would enjoy. But that's a story for another day.

UPDATE: 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.

Chevy to show redesigned Captiva in Geneva, will it come to US rental lots?

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

Unless you're renting a car or driving through Orlando, Florida (the rental car capital of the US), you'll probably never see a Chevrolet Captiva - the rebadged, fleet-only version of the old Saturn Vue - on our roads, but this crossover is popular in many other parts of the world. As such, Chevrolet announced that the Captiva will be getting an update for 2013, which will be unveiled next week at the Geneva Motor Show.
Coming off a pretty extensive refresh in 2011, the 2013 model year will bring even more changes to the Captiva like LED taillights, new 18-inch wheels and revised fascias with a new grille and fog lights up front and inset chrome exhaust outlets at the rear. New interior features include heated rear seats, dual-zone climate control as well as available options on some of the upper trim levels such as leather seating and keyless entry and start. We have yet to hear back from Chevrolet as to whether or not the updated Captiva will be making its way to a rental lot near you, as the model is only available in the US to fleet buyers.
Alongside the updated Captiva, Chevy is also showing off its new Trax in Europe, where the subcompact crossover will go on sale this spring. GM's press release for these two Geneva-bound models is posted below.
