1959 Chevy Apache Fleetside Project Truck 383ci Stoker & 350Ti 3 Speed off IROC CAMARO 

Submitted for your consideration is a partially restored 1959 Chevy Apache fleetside 1/2 ton pick up truck with a 383ci stroker small block, headers, 350ti turbo 3 speed automatic transmission, custom front wheel struts, and a 3:23 ratio matching positrac rear end that was all removed from a 1985 Chevy IROC Camaro. As you may know already these late 50's Chevy trucks are getting near impossible to find these days in good condition. Most of these dry restorable California classic trucks are being exported out of the country & sold for top dollar elsewhere. This is a private auction for your safety. FYI this classic truck is for sale locally. I recently bought this truck from the estate and the previous owner died just before its completion. I have a clear non op title. The estate seller said at least 12K+ in receipts had already been invested in both body & mechanical upgrades to date. If you were to purchase this 59 Apache fully restored built up as this one is as described you would be paying at least $35K I assure you. Vin number research states that this truck was built in Los Angeles, California back in 1959. This vintage 55 year old truck looks to be set up as a high end hot rod by the last builder. Check out the straight body alignment & ultra straight tailgate. Not much serious body rust/rot to speak of. Rocker panels, floorpans, & cab corners look rock solid pictured. Exterior body surface looks to have been completely prepped/painted which will save you the high bidder/buyer alot of time & money. Unit both runs & shifts good when gas is poured directly into the carburetor. All I have done was to use some compressed air to blow off the dust & dirt to show the exact condition of this classic truck just the way I got it. This way you know what to expect. No hype here. Front bumper not pictured is included with the sale. Please note: You will need to replace fuel lines, check brake pressure, replace wood bed, replace some glass & little of this & alot of that to complete this 55 year old project truck to your specifications. These 50's fleetside Chevy trucks are red hot right now & this one is ready for your imagination. If I missed something on the auction let me know & I'll try to answer to the best of my ability. Truck has been relisted because of a non paying bidder last week. ASK QUESTIONS before you bid & DO NOT BID if you can not pay as ebay auctions are both $$$$ expensive & time consuming. Truck is located in Lone Pine, California 93545 for your shipper information. Full payment is due within 7 days of the auction end. Sold As Is Where Is as pictured. I can help load. I can trailer locally within California/Nevada for an additional fee. $500.00 deposit is due within 24 hours & full payment due within one week of purchase. Call/text Mike for a chit chat @ seven six zero two six four three nine eight eight. I love talking about classic trucks. Thanks for looking!  

Repeat the following:

Buyer is responsible for pick up "please excuse the pun" or shipping costs. This vintage truck is being sold AS-IS WHERE IS. Please email/call/text me with any IMPORTANT questions BEFORE you bid.

2016 Chevy Colorado grabs Motor Trend Truck of the Year award

Tue, Nov 17 2015

It's not an easy feat to win Motor Trend Truck of the Year twice in a row, but the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado managed to do just that. Thanks to the introduction of the 2.8-liter Duramax four-cylinder diesel, the magazine decided to bring the pickup back to defend the title. In more good news for the Bowtie brand, the 2016 Camaro earned the magazine's Car of the Year award. The Colorado beat a tough group of finalists to earn the nod this year, including its GMC Canyon sibling. The Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra also made this year's list. The Nissan Titan XD and latest Toyota Tacoma rounded out the challengers. A model had to shine in six criteria to earn the title: advancement in design, engineering excellence, safety, efficiency, value, and performance of intended function. Like it did with the Camaro, Motor Trend posted a story online that explained the rationale for picking the Colorado again. They praised the diesel profusely and lauded the whole platform as quite a capable hauler. This year's Motor Trend SUV of the Year honor went to the Volvo XC90. The Swedish 'ute had to win against an initial group of 16 candidates that the magazine eventually whittled down to finalists that consisted of the Honda Pilot, Lincoln MKX, the combined Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class and GLE Coupe, and Nissan Murano. "Seven-passenger people movers aren't supposed to drive like this," senior features editor Jonny Lieberman said about the Volvo in the announcement of the champions. The Honda CR-V won last year. In the explanation online, the judges applauded the XC90's new modular platform, and they loved both the T6 twin-charged engine and T8 hybrid version. The SUV's key enamored the writers, too.

Nissan Leaf sets another monthly sales record, Chevy Volt remains steady

Mon, Nov 3 2014

Here we go again. Another month in the books and another month of record sales by the Nissan Leaf in the US. For October, the world's best-selling pure EV sold 2,589 units, which is 29.3 percent more than October 2013. That makes it 20 times in a row that Nissan can say that last month sales were better than the same month a year before. All told, Nissan has sold 24,411 Leafs in the US this year, a new record, reflecting an overall Leaf sales rate that is up 35 percent, year-to-date. Nissan isn't stopping, either. A new TV ad, one that, "encourages consumers to kick gas" by saving money on fuel will start airing today in major markets, according to Toby Perry, director of Nissan's EV marketing. You can watch it below. As for the Chevy Volt, things remained steady last month in the face of a new model that's coming in the second half of 2015. Chevy sold 1,439 Volts last month, which is about the same as September (1,394) but down 28.8 percent from the October 2013 despite GM having its best overall US October sales this year since 2007. So far, 2014 Volt year-to-date sales are down 14.9 percent through the end of October compared to 2013. And that wraps up the flash report on monthly sales for these two long-standing plug-in vehicles in the US market. As always, we'll have our in-depth write-up of US green car sales available soon. For now, we await your comments, below. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs

Sun, 01 Dec 2013



The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
