This is a true survivor car that is almost all original. I was led to believe it was bought new in Portland but do know it has been here since the mid 70's for sure. NO RUST in the spare tire carrier and floor. This is almost unheard of in an El Camino but it had a canopy on it since new until a year ago. Was in an accident in 1992 where the previous owner rear ended a pick up but the car had no frame damage. Car had the sheet metal replaced and was then painted from it's original sand color to the brown. That is where the title got it's brand. Car does have a couple minor rust spots in the rear quarters, back of the front fenders and under the vinyl top, but for one of these the condition is un-real. Interior is original, wiring is original and un-touched. Car was a factory Malibu with a 307, turbo 350, no power steering, no power drum brake car that in 1999 Ron Tonkin Chevrolet installed a new crate 350 4 bolt main engine. Still sports its stock 2 barrel intake, Trans was rebuilt at the same time. Has had a stereo in it but the dash and wiring are un-cut. Deck was in the glove box but the doors and pillars behind the seat have had 6" speakers in them. The previous owner who owned it since the late 70's is still in Portland and he is who I learned the cars history from. He had Matthews Memory Lane sell the car for him some years ago. Car runs and drives like new. Had the complete front end suspension rebuilt, rear end bushings replaced and brakes rebuilt a year ago. I have a PILE of parts that include a Summit stage 3 air gap intake, 650cfm Street Demon carb, Patriot mid length headers, new HEI and much more. Has 15" Vette Rally wheels and almost new T/A tires. This is a fantastic reliable unmolested could be daily driver car or is the PERFECT starter for your winter build. Payment will be CASH, cashiers check or bank wire and the car and title will NOT be turned over till the funds have cleared my account. PLEASE contact me with ANY questions you may have, I will not hide anything and will take a pile photo's if feel you need them. SLIGHT chance of trades or part trades but lets be serious. Car is also for sale locally so I reserve the right to end this listing at ANY time. Yes the price is up there but will look at SERIOUS offers. If you think you need to do a "buy it now" you had better be prepared to bank wire the money within hours.

Weekly Recap: Volvo buys Polestar, makes performance a priority
Sat, Jul 18 2015Volvo is taking its performance business in-house, and the Swedish carmaker announced Tuesday that it bought tuning company Polestar, which has long been known for producing sporty Volvos. The move allows Volvo to ramp up its performance business, and it plans to increase Polestar-branded vehicle sales to 1,000 to 1,500 annually, up from the 750 total projected for this year. The companies have been working together on motorsports projects since 1996. Financial terms of the sale were not released, and Polestar workers will move over to Volvo. Former Polestar owner Christian Dahl will keep control of the Polestar racing team and operate it under a new name. In addition to sales volume, Volvo has ambitious plans for other parts of Polestar, including its aftermarket business. Volvo also said it will use its twin-engine hybrid technology for Polestar models in the future, though specifics and timing were not revealed. Meanwhile, Volvo announced it will offer a run of 265 total Polestars in the United States for the 2016 model year, with S60 and V60s available. "Driving a Volvo Polestar is a special experience. We have decided to bring this experience to more Volvo drivers, placing the full resources of Volvo behind the development of Polestar as the model name for our high performance cars," Volvo CEO Hakan Samuelsson said in a statement. OTHER NEWS & NOTES 2016 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra, get nose jobs Automakers tend to refer to light updates as 'facelifts,' and that's exactly what Chevy gave the 2016 Silverado and GMC Sierra. Chevy slightly changed the front end of the truck. Using the one photo released of the new Z71 model as a guide, we can see that the headlights went from a stacked vertical design to single bulbs, and they are set on top of LED running lights. The grille has more body-colored elements instead of shiny metal, and the hood has a new line running down the middle (look really closely). The design theme will be similar across the portfolio, though materials and details will vary, a spokesman said. Some models, like the High Country and LTZ will have more chrome, and the LEDs are only for the upper trims. Chevy also said it will use the eight-speed automatic transmission on more versions of the Silverado, and it updated the MyLink feature to support Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
GM will recall more than 3.3 million vehicles in China for suspension defect
Sat, Sep 29 2018BEIJING (Reuters) - General Motors' joint venture in China, Shanghai GM, will recall more than 3.3 million Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac vehicles stating Oct. 20 because of a defect with the suspension system, China's market regulator said on Saturday. GM Shanghai said in a text message to Reuters that the suspension arm may be deformed under extreme operating conditions, but there are no known casualties related to the issue. The recall includes cars produced between 2013 and 2018, the State Administration for Market Regulation said in a statement. GM will contact those affected and repair the vehicles free of charge, it said.

Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty
Tue, 05 Mar 2013We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.
