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.

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing

Tue, 21 Sep 2010

Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica

Fri, 03 Aug 2012

If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.

Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
