Mileage: 12,345
Trim: Apache
Up for auction we have a 1958 Chevy Apache project truck. This truck was pulled out of a field, put in a garage, dissasembled, and sat with hopes of restoration, then I purchased it, let it sit for a little bit longer with hopes of restoration (which haven't happened as you can see), and now it's for sale. The truck has no title, which is why it is listed as salvage. Most of the truck is there, except the seat, steering column, original behind the seat fuel tank, bed, and drivetrain. Please look at the pics for more details, basically what you see is what you get. I do have the front and rear glass but it is not pictured. The truck has great patina for a rat rod or custom build! I originally planned to swap it onto an s-10 frame and use a short bed I had left over from another truck to build a neat rat rod. Overall the truck isn't terrible, but just needs someone who is willing to either restore it or build something out of it. Bid early and bid often, these trucks bring a pretty penny when restored and are arguably one of the most stylish trucks Chevy ever built, plus they are getting harder to find! Thanks for looking! Cash only upon time of pickup. Truck is located in Bally PA 19503. Payment and pickup due within 7 days of the auction's end. I may be able to deliver this for a fee but please ask before bidding. I have a loader to load it onto your trailer or rollback. Truck is dissasembled, so a pickup with a trailer would probably be ideal. Please ask any questions prior to bidding, truck is sold as-is. Thanks! |

Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible headed for Geneva debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013While most of the world is still coming down from all the hype surrounding the debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month, we're already looking to the future. And according to Autoweek, the next chapter in the C7 story will unfold at the Geneva Motor Show in March. That's right, General Motors is reportedly using the Swiss stage as its venue to debut the Corvette Stingray convertible.
If this strikes you as odd, you aren't alone. After all, with a car that's such an American icon, we'd fully expect Chevrolet to unveil it here on our shores in either Chicago or New York. But according to Autoweek, GM is looking to boost export sales of its halo car, and since the C7 was engineered to compete with the world's best and brightest, showing it off in Geneva is somewhat of a smart move. What's more, those with sharp memories will recall that GM used the Geneva expo to debut the sixth-generation C6 Corvette convertible back in March 2004, so there's also a precedent.
Details surrounding the Corvette Stingray convertible are still slim, though we fully expect the 6.2-liter V8 and choice of either six-speed automatic or seven-speed manual transmissions to carry over unchanged. Prototypes spotted on the road showed the car fitted with a cloth convertible roof, as well.
Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works
Fri, 22 Mar 2013When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
