I have up for sale my 1959 Chevy Apache 38. This is a barn find and has been mostly kept in barn find shape. The Title on "Mater" As my kids call him says make is from the Cherokee Manufacturing Company where it was born as a grain\livestock combo with a lift bed. The truck itself has 77,450 miles on it but the motor is not original. The Manual transmission shifts fine and sounds like the old typical 4 speed from the past. The rearend center section was a 5.32 Gear ratio and changed for something a little more road friendly and now is a 4.10 gear and the motor thanks me for that. The motor is a 400 cu inch with a 2 barrell carb. The carburator was rebuilt and runs good now, and the ignition is HEI instead of the old points. The 400 expells its bark through Headers to 3in. exhaust to dual stacks. The stacks are muffled and not straight pipes so they give off a nice deep mellow tone but sound great. The original grain/livestock combo bed was stripped off and a new flatbed was built to fit this truck, and retains the hydraulic dump bed (works). The Custom built flatbed has fold down sides and are removeable, and also has a hideaway gooseneck ball. All lights work on the truck and all the lights in the flatbed are LED. As for the Interior in the truck, I have a seat from a dodge in it just taking place until the original got re-upholstered. The original fits a little better and will go with the truck as will the original bed if wanted. The Deluxe heater was fully rebuilt with new coil, valve and cables and controls. This truck is a mans truck and takes a good arm to drive, as there is no power steering (not for sissys). The brakes work good but are not updated and still manual brakes, again you need a heavy foot for the beast. I believe the only thing that does not work are the old original vacuum windshield wipers, they move but don't move too fast.. The tires are period correct and as they are good for around town, I wouldn't trust them on a 1000 mile trip only because of their age. I have driven this truck quite a bit since I have gotten it done and love to drive and get the attention it deserves. I am selling so I can get on with another project I have stewing in my head. I must stress this truck is old school and there are no hot flashy extras and not updated for weiners. So here it is bid if you like it and win if you want it and you will have a unique REAL AS IT GETS, old truck. I will be happy to answer questions if you have them. I have the truck for sale locally and if my price is met locally I will reserve the right to end the auction at anytime.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]
Fri, 30 Aug 2013When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.
Chevy Bolt interior spied for first time
Wed, Oct 7 2015Chevrolet is continuing work on its Bolt EV, but thanks to some public-road testing in what looks to be somewhere in Michigan, we've captured our first look at the new hatchback's screen-intensive dash. Looking like a blend of the Chevy Sonic with the new Volt, the Bolt's interior follows a simple formula, offering a digital display in place of the traditional instrument cluster alongside a large, prominent display in the center stack. Nothing too shocking, except for the fact that both displays look larger than what's in the Volt. What's most surprising, though, is the shifter. It looks almost BMW-like in appearance. There's a dedicated park button accessible by the driver's thumb, and we're guessing a trigger on the front that can toggle the lever forward into reverse and backwards into drive. The central display, meanwhile, looks like it's running some very different looking software, compared to Chevy's usual MyLink fare. We can't be sure whether this is simply some development software that's free of polish and not intended for production, or a look at a new form of Chevy's connectivity suite. Aside from some different wheels, the exterior of this prototype looks unchanged from the last round of spy photos we captured of the new Bolt. Sorry kids, no new exterior styling to show you today. Still, we've included the entire crop of spy images, covering a variety of exterior angles along with several shots of the interior. Related Video:
2015 Chevrolet Silverado Custom glitzes up volume model [UPDATE]
Thu, Feb 12 2015UPDATE: The original prices listed in Chevrolet's press release did include destination charging, despite not being specifically called out as such. We've edited the story to reflect this. The Chicago Auto Show's reputation as the home of special edition debuts grows stronger today, as Chevrolet is complementing the news that it'd unveil the Silverado Midnight Edtion and Colorado GearOn special editions in the Windy City with the debut of the Silverado Custom. And yes, it's different than the higher-spec Custom Sport that debuted just last month in Detroit. What's so custom about the Silverado Custom, you ask? Well, not a whole lot. The new truck is based on the popular Silverado LS Double Cab, and adds, among its most noteworthy features, a set of 20-inch, five-spoke wheels. From there, chrome is the order of the day, with shinier front and rear bumpers, mirror caps and door handles. The top portion of the front bumper, which is finished in black plastic on the standard LS, is matched to the body color on the Custom model. Standard LS interior features, like the 4.2-inch MyLink system with 4G LTE wireless internet, 40/20/40 cloth front seats, remain in place on the Custom, while it's a similar story with the powertrain. Choices below the sheetmetal will force buyers to choose between a 5.3-liter V8 or a standard 4.3-liter V6, and two- or four-wheel drive. Chevy is pricing a V8-equipped Silverado Custom 4x2 at $33,820 (including $1,195 in destination charges). Adding four-wheel drive brings the price up at $37,800, although as we said, selecting the 4.3-liter V6 will yield a more affordable Custom. Check out the full press release on the newest member of the Silverado clan, available below. 2015 Silverado Custom: Back to Basics, with Style $33,820 starting price for a well-equipped double-cab V-8 CHICAGO – Chevrolet takes aim at the heart of the pickup market with the Silverado Custom, which offers Chevy Truck capability and dependability in a stylish package, priced within reach of many truck customers. "The economic recovery has led to booming sales of high-end pickups like the Silverado High Country," said Sandor Piszar, marketing director for Chevy Trucks. "But there are also millions of customers in the heart of the market who want a great looking, well-equipped truck at an affordable price.
