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.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013

There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.

Tarantino's stolen Chevy Malibu from Pulp Fiction recovered after 19 years [w/video]

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

Quentin Tarantino fans will likely remember Vincent Vega's cherry 1964 Chevrolet Malibu Convertible in Pulp Fiction. In a movie drenched in automotive references, the Malibu is very nearly a character in and of itself, and it serves as the subject of Vega's soliloquy about the kind of man who vandalizes another's automobile. It also happened to be Tarantino's personal car when the film was shot, and was apparently stolen shortly after production wrapped. Now police have located the car some 19 years later.
As it turns out, the thieves cloned the vehicle identification number from another '64 Malibu and had the car registered under the new digits. It was then sold to an unsuspecting buyer. Police happened upon the duplicate VINs while investigating another potential theft. Right now, it's unclear whether Tarantino has taken possession of the Chevrolet, if it has remained in the possession of the fraud victim, or whether it's caught somewhere in the gears of justice. Either way, you can catch Vega's memorable thoughts on the car keying in the Pulp Fiction clip below. But consider yourself warned: the video contains explicit language as Not Safe For Work as it comes.

Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.
