This is an original barn find recently purchased from an estate in Central Texas (Leakey). This pickup was last licenced in 1976.  The pickup truck is very original. including motor,mirrors, wheels, bias ply tires, tailgate, paint, wood bed. It is a real survivor of 52 years. The truck starts, but is not driveable. There is no battery in the truck. Part of the exhaust pipe is missing. The break pedal goes to the floor and fluid comes out of the inside of the wheels. I can find a break in only the drivers side window. The windshield which is a wrap around design seems to have survived without any cracks. The pickup is originally Red and has alot of surface rust. There is only one rust hole that has come throught the metal depicted in the photgraphs submitted.I have a bill of sale on the pickup. The title has been lost. I have paperwork to file for a lost title with the State of Texas. Also bonding title papers. This truck is so original it would be a candidate for a very nice restoration. Many of the parts for this vehicle are available in the LMC truck parts magazine which is included. Also included are 2 original 1961 Sales brochures of this 1961 Chevrolet Apache. I will post 24 photos of this pickup. Please check on shipping cost if you intend to place a bid. This auction will have No Reserve beyond the auction starting price. I will answer additional questions if you have any. Thank you for looking.

Chevy confirms Corvette Stingray Convertible for Geneva

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Want proof that General Motors has increased global ambitions for its 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray? It's staging the world premiere of the model's convertible variant at the Geneva Motor Show early next month.
As previously rumored, the droptop rendered above will debut at the Swiss show, making its first appearance anywhere on March 5. According to Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet, the location makes sense because Corvette "...is an icon that has long been recognized and admired even in countries where it's never officially been offered."
While neither Chevrolet nor the Corvette has a major sales presence in Switzerland, the Bowtie's European headquarters is located in Zurich (about three hours to the northeast of Geneva) and GM has made it clear that it wants to build the Chevrolet brand up across Europe.

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.
