1972 El Camino Custom No Reserve!!! on 2040-cars
Lanett, Alabama, United States
|
For sale is a 1972 Chevrolet El
Camino Custom. It runs and drives/breaks great, and I’ve gone through periods where I
used it as a primary means of transportation. It sure is an attention getter—I can’t
even go to the grocery store or gym without several people standing around it
as I go to leave, asking questions, etc. I’ll miss it deeply for that reason
alone. The pics were taken outside, but
it has been garage kept since day 1. It’s not perfect. The belt sometimes
squeals on start up, but it starts right up, runs and drives great. It’s got a
few scratches, cracks, rust, dings etc. but nothing big or very noticeable. The
dash seems to be missing some fasteners where the gauge cluster attaches. All
the gauges work except for the oil lamp. No A/C or radio installed. While the
headlights/taillights and blinkers work perfectly, the lights in the dash
(blinker indicators, bulbs that illuminate the gauges at night, etc.) work but
not consistently. The previous owner had pulled the A/C control panel out for
some reason—I suppose to replace it (as you can see it sits on the column in
the pictures above). Headliner’s in great shape. One of
the seats is in great shape while the other isn’t—thus I put the seat covers on
both. It has the SS style dash (round gauges) and floor shifter (Hurst V-Matic
2) which I love. Windshield wipers work. Wheels are in good shape. Lots of
work done (on the suspension specifically) which I’ve attached pictures of the
receipts to account for. Model: L48, 350 CID, 4-bbl Engine: 350 4 bolt main—casting #
3970014. Engine ID Code: V0319TJA; Flint,
MI Assembly Vin 1D80J2B568266; Baltimore, MD
Assembly Rear Axle: CKD 0507B2, 2.73:1 –
12 Bolt (L48/350-4); Buffalo, NY Assembly Never had access to a lift in
order to identify the transmission type as the only way I know to do that is
via the pan shape. |

Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]
Tue, 19 Mar 2013This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...
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.
GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech
Tue, 24 Dec 2013The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
