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.

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.

2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.
