1966 Chevrolet El Camino 59k Original Ca Black Plate Survivor 327/275 4 Speed on 2040-cars
Merced, California, United States
|
Up for sale is this 1966 Chevrolet El Camino that was factory equipped with a 327/275hp engine and 4 speed shifter. This El Camino was built in the Fremont, CA factory and sold new at Barton's Chevrolet of Yorba Linda, CA. This El Camino has spent it's entire life in a dry California climate and is still registered to it's original California black plates. This El Camino is believed to have just over 59k original miles. This El Camino had sat in the garage of the original owner until 2012 when it was bought from the original owners estate. At the time of purchase it had sat unused for more than a few years and needed some freshening up before being put back into daily use. The original interior was dry, faded, cracked, and had split seams so it was time to get refreshed with a mostly new factory style interior which includes: headliner, sunvisors, seat upholstery, door seals, carpet, arm rests, dash pad, and a few other odds and ends. The engine and transmission also received some attention: new rear main seal, transmission input and output shaft seals, new clutch kit, engine and transmission mounts, full tune up, carb rebuild, fuel pump, V belt, fan shroud, and hoses. Brakes are also rebuilt with all new flex lines, master cylinder, wheel cylinders, and brake shoes. The engine runs smooth and has plenty of power. Transmission shifts smooth. Brakes work as they should. The paint is mostly original and is in respectable condition for it's age. Same goes for all the brightwork and trim. This El Camino is very dry in all of the usual rust areas: floors, hood, fenders, bed, quarters, etc. are all rust free. The only area with any rust is very minimal along the bottom edge of the rear window, and is very minimal compared to most. All glass in original and in good condition with the exception of a chip in the front windshield center. All electrical works as it should: Original T-3 headlights, tail lights, brake lights, horn, dash lights, wipers, wiper squirters, reverse lights, dome light, cigarette lighter, etc. all work as they should. The radio and the clock are the only things that don't currently work, but both should be an easy fix. One key works all locks and ignition. All original manuals are included: owners manual, accessories brochure, protect-o-plate, and some other items that came with the car when purchased new. This El Camino is a daily driver and is very pleasant to drive and gets many compliments wherever it goes. I wouldn't hesitate to get in and drive this thing anywhere. Overall this is a very nice original 2 owner survivor and you would be hard pressed to find another in this condition anytime soon. Clear California title included with the sale along with current registration.

GM cutting back on powertrain warranty citing lack of interest
Thu, Mar 12 2015Generally, when a manufacturer offers a long, high-mileage warranty, it's a sign that it stands behind its products. On top of that, it's generally a selling point for consumers, who can rest easy knowing that any catastrophic failures will be picked up by the manufacturer. Considering those facts, it does seem rather strange that General Motors is slashing the mileage warranty on model year 2016 vehicles from Chevrolet and GMC. Instead of offering consumers a 100,000-mile warranty, GM will now only offer a powertrain warranty up to 60,000 miles. The five-year warranty period, though, remains unchanged. GM will also cut the number of free services being offered to Chevy and GMC owners, as well as Buick drivers, from four to two. "Through research, we have determined that when purchasing a new vehicle, included maintenance and warranty rank low on the list of reasons why consumers consider a particular brand over another," explained a memo sent to dealers by Chevrolet VP Brian Sweeney and his GMC counterpart, Duncan Aldred, and obtained by Automotive News. "As a result, we have benchmarked our competitors, reviewed our current offerings and have concluded the following modifications to align closely with our customers' needs and expectations." While the move might seem odd, Sweeney and Aldred are right – according to Automotive News, Ford, Honda and Toyota each offer a five-year, 60,000-mile powertrain warranty. As for what the money saved by trimming the powertrain warranty will go towards, a GM spokesperson simply told AN that the company will "reinvest the savings we will realize into other retail programs," some of which have been requested by consumers. What are your thoughts? Would a 40,000-mile reduction in a new vehicle's powertrain really turn you off from buying one? Even if it matched its competitors? Is GM better off spending its money elsewhere? Have your say in Comments.
