Up for bids is a 68 Chevy Elcamino project car or a great parts car. This car does not come with an engine or trans. This was a running driving car up until I pulled the engine and trans. The trans cross member, radiator, power steering pump and a few other things do come with the car. The body on this car is usuable. Theres no rust showing through although there has been some repair in the past. The hood looks out of alignment in some of the pics but that's because it isn't bolted on in some of them. The hood has some minor dings or dents but it is repairable. The radiator support and inner fenders all look good. The front fenders seem to have been worked some near the bottoms of them. No rust showing through but there has been work done at some time. Around the wheel well seems good. Both doors seem pretty solid with maybe a little work near the lower outer part and a little inside of one of them in the lower corner. The bottoms of both of them are in great solid condition. The bed seems to have some filler work near the bottoms but around the wheel well I think is ok. Inside the bed has had some work done as well and could stand a better job done on it. The tail gate is real nice except for a small spot on one lower corner of it on the inside. The top has some minor cracking where it looks like maybe it had a vinyl top on it at some time. This is flat black paint or black primer on the entire car. The interior has pretty nice driver quality door panels and both seats are nice. They appear to have come from an olds cutlass. The dash pad, not so good, and theres a big auto meter tach and shift lite mounted on the dash top. There are a couple smaller gauges mounted on the lower dash panel also. The Elcamino has a ratchet type automatic shifter mounted in it, think its a Hurst shifter. Floors have been patched some, are are ok for a daily driver. The frame under this Elcamino needs some repair. Its fixable but does need some attention. The cars sits very low and that's from what looks to be cut coil springs in the front and the rear has air shocks on it. It looks cool but would probably ride like a buckboard wagon. The wheels and tires shown in the pic DONT come with the car but it will have some type rollers on it. Now the rear bumper, front bumper, grille and the front SS emblem all look to be about new. They are all very, very nice and straight and shiny. Also the trim around the headlights is really in great shape. Those items alone add up to lots of money. All the glass is good and as far as trim, if its not in the pic I don't have it. Everything included is pictured. This is an air conditioned car and all the box etc under the hood is there, no compressor or lines. That's about all I know to tell you about this 68 Elcamino so if you have questions please ask so theres no question at the end of the auction. This car comes with a clear VA title. If you read the description carefully, look at the pics thoroughly, you will know exactly what youre getting. Checkout my feedback guys as its well over 500 and ALL positive. You don't get great feedback like that if you lie and cheat people, I tell it like it is. Rest assure your dealing with an honest ebayer. This car can easily be put back on the road, use it for parts or tear into it and do a complete restoration. Its a super parts car with all the new bumpers etc if you want to go that direction. Also I need to mention this IS NOT an SS car, someone just put the emblems on it sometime in the past. If you have less than 10 positive feedback you must contact me before bidding or I will cancel your bid. Sorry but theres so many non paying bidders these days you have to be careful. The car can sit here up to 30 days or so as long as its paid for according to the auction. I reserve the right to end the auction early as its for sale locally also. Thanks for reading my novel and good luck should you decide to bid on this 68 Elcamino, there getting harder and harder to find.

Vert-A-Pac train cars kept your Chevy Vega's price in check
Fri, 01 Mar 2013Our apologies to those who've seen this before, but for the rest of the class, how awesome are these pictures of the Vert-A-Pac shipping system General Motors came up with to ship the Chevrolet Vega back in the 1970s? Developed along with Southern Pacific Railroad, GM was able to double the amount of Vega models it could ship by packing them into the unique storage cars vertically.
At the time, rail cars could fit 15 vehicles each, but Chevrolet was able to lower shipping costs by making it possible to ship 30 Vegas per rail car, in turn allowing the price of the Vega to remain as low as possible. Each rail car had 30 doors that would fold down so that a Vega could be strapped on, and then a forklift would come along and lift the door into place. All the cars were positioned nose down, and since they were shipped with all of their required fluids, certain aspects had to be designed specifically for this type of shipping, including an oil baffle in the engine, a special battery and even a repositioned windshield washer reservoir. See for yourself in our image gallery above.

Sunday Drive: Taking a gaze into the automotive crystal ball
Sun, Oct 22 2017Mankind has long been fascinated by the future. So it makes sense that this past week's top stories were all about cars, trucks, and SUVs that won't be hitting the market until the 2019 model year. And right at the top of the list is the Ram 1500. We've come to know Ram as the truck maker that styles its pickups with cues cribbed from big rigs, but that look has slowly evolved over time into something uniquely its own. The next Ram 1500 continues this trend, with a newly refined look that we can't wait to see in person. Up next is the 2019 Chevy Silverado. Pickup trucks have been, continue to be, and will remain the best-selling vehicles in America. And General Motors is a leader in the field, with two distinct offerings with which to entice buyers, one from the bread-and-butter Chevrolet brand and one wearing the slightly more upscale GMC badge. The Chevy looks to get LED lighting elements for 2019, which ought to keep the truck from looking dated when compared to the Ford F-150 and the previously mentioned Ram 1500. From there we move past pickup trucks and into SUVs and sedans. The 2019 Jeep Cherokee looks to get toned down a bit with its next refresh, and the '19 BMW 3 Series continues its slow evolutionary journey at the top of its aspirational sales pedestal. Finally, spy shots give way to official production reveals for the 2019 Audi A7 and Polestar 1. This pair of European luxury cars won't compete with one another – one is a rakish hatchback and the other a sports coupe – any further than for the eyeballs of our readers, but both proved popular enough to merit inclusion in our weekly roundup. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2019 Ram 1500 spotted without the classic crosshairs 2019 Chevy Silverado spied with new LED accents 2019 Jeep Cherokee reveals a much more normal face 2019 BMW 3 Series spy shots reveal production lights, new interior details 2019 Audi A7 revealed: More torque, refined styling Polestar 1 First Look | The 600 horsepower hybrid Scandinavian Green Audi BMW Chevrolet Jeep RAM Volvo Truck Hatchback SUV Future Vehicles Hybrid Luxury Performance Sedan sunday drive polestar 1
