1958 Chevy Apache 31 Pickup. Chevy 350 4 Bolt main engine. New cam installed 5 years ago (done to replace a more aggressive cam). New Holley 650CFM carb. The engine starts and runs flawlessly. New (rebuilt) TH400 transmission also installed 5 years ago. All new wiring throughout the truck. Power steering also added at that time. New distributor and wires. Re-cored (4 core) radiator with electric fan added. The truck has been driven less than 1000 miles since all these things were done. 2.5" dual exhaust with stainless mufflers. Firestone Firehawk SS Tires with lots of tread left. (255/60 15s). The color of the truck is 1978 Ford Mustang Chrome Yellow. Not sure when the truck was painted but the paint looks great! I am selling for my father whose health has kept him from driving this truck the way he had planned. That is why the truck is being listed for sale.
I have taken a bunch of pics to document the condition of this truck. Ebay only allows 24..i have many more if someone needs to see anything beyond what is shown. It is a super clean truck and it looks as good in person as it does in the pics. The chrome on the truck is in excellent condition. Pics of the underside and engine compartment also speak volumes. With that said I also believe in being forthcoming with anything on the truck that might require attention at some point. The wheels on the truck are older and do show some wear and pitting. Also, the outside bottoms of the doors and front corners of bed do have some filler in them...the only filler in the truck. This is evident at the right angle in the right light. I have been on the buying side of classic/muscle cars more than once and know this is something I would ask and want to know. I have taken pics of the bottoms of the doors and bottom front of bed to document...and from that you can see its nothing major, nothing that stands out or requires attention. This is a beautiful truck!
As you can see from the pics the interior of the truck is in great condition. The speedometer does not work. My dad always used a dash mounted GPS unit plugged into cigarette lighter for speedometer. All other gauges and lights function as they should. (aftermarket temp gauge)
This is truly a turn key truck ready for someone to enjoy. My father added many things to make this a great driving, reliable truck and someone is going to reap the benefits of that at mostly his expense. But if you've been around classic cars and trucks long enough you understand that's often how it goes when you sell. Anyone who would like to see the truck in person is more than welcome...I encourage it! Please email me with any questions and be happy to discuss the truck with you. Thanks

Hot Wheels Camaro to make big debut at Indy
Fri, 05 Apr 2013Chevrolet handed over the keys to 33 Hot Wheels Camaro Convertible Indianapolis 500 festival cars this week. Race directors get the luxury of driving the droptops around Indianapolis in an ongoing tradition with roots all the way back to the 1960s. The stunt is supposed to remind area residents that the Indy 500 is right around the corner. The cars are our first look at the special Camaro Hot Wheels Edition in convertible form, and they are slated to head to dealers after a one-time production run. The cars also represent the first time in history full-size Hot Wheels have been offered for sale by an automaker.
The cars will be available in both the previously seen coupe bodystyle and this convertible configuration, and will feature metallic blue paint and special wheels with the iconic redline accent. Buyers will be able to choose between the V6-powered 2LT trim and the V8-powered 2SS guise.
Hot Wheels says the original Custom Camaro toy was one of the original 16 1:64-scale diecasts, and it remains one of the company's most valuable collector items today.
PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
Experimental mid-engine XP-819 Corvette going up for auction
Sun, 17 Feb 2013It seems to be commonplace that when a new Corvette is in development, rumors swirl about a possible mid-engine layout. As is the case of Chevy's most recent C7 Corvette, these rumors never pan out.
In any case, the idea for a 'Vette with an engine mounted behind the driver can probably all be traced back to a single car, the 1964 XP-819 prototype. Built as an "engineering exercise" back in 1964, the prototype was designed with a rear-mounted engine. History tells us that the idea of a rear-engine Corvette fizzled, and the XP-819 was eventually cut up into pieces and stored at a shop in Daytona Beach, FL.
After sitting for untold years, a restoration project started on the car, and while it isn't yet fully completed, the current owner of the car, Mid America Motorworks, will have the car on display at the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance as a "driveable chassis" with hopes of having a fully completed car ready to bring to next year's show.
