Up for auction is this beautiful all original 1961 Chevrolet Apache 10 pickup truck. A true barn find & she is in great shape!. These trucks are very rare and getting harder and harder to come by, especially in this condition. It is a really clean straight truck without a bunch of dents and dings like many of these old farm trucks have. Also, it has a very clean interior with no rips or tears in the seat. The paint still takes wax and shines up well, as you can see in the photos. I don't see any body work in this truck and only a couple minor rust spots. One in the passenger door about the size of a quarter, and a small section just under the bowtie on the hood.(see pics)
The truck not only looks good it runs, drives, and stops just as it should. We just installed a new set of BF Goodrich tires and did a full tune up which includes the following:
-New brake pads & wheel cylinders
-New Master Cylinder
-New points, cap & rotor button
-New plugs & plug wires
-New Coil
-Changed all fluids engine oil, transmission, & rear end which we also replaced all the seals on as well
Everything on this truck Works!! lights, signals, gauges, dash lights, even right down to the horn. She is completely road worthy ready to drive anywhere. It was just taken on a road trip to the Rod Run in TN 400+ miles roundtrip with no problems. I have included a video link of the truck starting and running so you can see & here it for yourself:

As you can see in the pics & video this is a turn key truck that needs nothing, but a new owner. Please email or call me with any questions you may have. Jeremy 864-940-4576
NOTE: I reserve the right to end this auction early as I also have it for sale locally. Please realize that many, if not most of my auctions end early due to someone contacting me to work out a deal before the close of the auction. So if you want it please don't wait until the last minute to bid as you may not get that chance. $500 non negotionable, non refundable deposit due within 24 hours of auction close. Thanks 4 looking and good luck!

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.
2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers
Fri, 11 Apr 2014
Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
