1970 Chevrolet El Camino Custom Standard Cab Pickup 2-door 5.7l on 2040-cars
Warren, Indiana, United States
1970 Chevrolet El Camino Custom. This is an awesome car that has recently been redone... The car has went through a lot of updates... It is an original A/C car. The prior owner done away with it when the motor was redone. It has a great running 350 with a slight cam. Aluminum radiator with electric/automatic fan. New dual exhaust out of new ceramic coated headers... Runs and sounds great. It's got a great sound without being obnoxious. New wheels and tires with a fresh alignment on front end. The inside originally was brown with the bench seat. I changed it to black. The interior has completely been redone. New dash pad, door panels, carpet, headliner, seats, custom console with storage, cup holders, Ipod/cd player, new speaker kit on backboard. Additional hidden storage in backboard as well. All new weatherstripping and headliner lace all around. New steering wheel, A pillar tach. custom gauge cluster in dash for easy visibility. Body matching paint carried through the cab. New floor mats, door handles, window cranks, etc. Tinted Windows. Several drivetrain parts are also new... New A arms, sway bar bushings, etc. Everything that was wore out and needed replaced was replaced... Reese receiver with 7 plug wiring harness. New chrome all around, bumpers, mirrors, door handles, bed rails, window trims (front,sides, and back, etc. There was some minimal rust on each side of the bed on the rockers. These 2 areas (1 on each side) was cut out and new metal welded in. The car originally had a vinyl top. When I bought it, it was shot. I elected to remove it and paint the roof. The roof did have typical surface rust, it was ground down, sealed and finished. I installed a new SS hood, new SS grill and badges. I removed the reverse lights, and the rear badge from the tailgate to make a nice, clean & smooth rear end. The bed is black rhino lined. The body work was done and finished off with a burnt orange/copper color accented with dark charcoal grey racing stripes on hood and tailgate. This car is a real head turner... A lot of work and money was spent on this beauty and I am very proud of it but am moving onto a 48 Ford pickup project. This is a solid car that is fun to drive, rides great, and is pretty quick. Just get in and drive... I know there is a lot of parts that were replaced that I'm failing to mention. The side trim is original with new mounting clips. I also have a few misc. items and a small amount of paint to go with the car along with a very nice car cover made for the car. I'm sure if you're interested, you have questions... My name is Shane and can be reached at 765-661-6227. The car is located in Warren, Indiana. We are roughly 30 minutes south of Ft. Wayne and an hour north of Indianapolis right off of I69. This car is for sale locally as well.

GM cutting Chevy Sonic, Buick Verano production by more than 20%
Sat, Jun 13 2015General Motors' Orion Assembly plant in Michigan is seeing even more production cuts this year to further reduce inventories of the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano. These latest adjustments mean layoffs for about 100 workers in phases starting in July. "GM Orion Assembly will adjust plant production capacity to better align with market demand," the company said in a statement announcing the change. Through May, sales of the Sonic are down 28.5 percent to 29,082 vehicles, and the Verano is off 15.6 percent, with 15,279 sold this year. According to unnamed plant insiders speaking to Automotive News, the assembly rate is slowing at Orion Assembly from the current 33 cars an hour down to 26 an hour, a 21-percent reduction. GM is also reportedly going to keep the plant idle for three weeks during the normal summer shutdown, rather than the usual two. Earlier in the year, the factory was idled for two weeks due to excess supply of the Sonic and Verano. In March, it was closed again for several days for the same reason. The Orion Assembly plant is the future home to the line for the Chevy Bolt EV. GM Statement: GM Orion Assembly will adjust plant production capacity to better align with market demand. A phased layoff of approximately 100 employees will begin in July 2015 and conclude by year-end.

GM applies for LT5, LTX trademarks... are new small block variants coming?
Mon, 29 Apr 2013Recently discovered General Motors trademark applications for LT4, LT5, LT88 and LTX have observers wondering what kind of high-performance offerings could be on their way. A new LT4 would mark a return of the engine designation first used on the Corvette Grand Sport, SLP Pontiac Firehawk and SLP Chevrolet Camaro SS from 1996 and 1997. Supposition at Corvette Forum - which provided advance intel on the C7 like these leaked images - believes a new LT4 could go into the high-performance trim of the next-gen, 2015 Camaro that would be more powerful than the 580-horsepower Camaro ZL1.
Seeing an LT5 again would also be déjà vu - in its former life it was a 5.7-liter V8 for the C4 Corvette ZR-1 from 1990-1994 designed by Lotus, producing from 370 hp to 405 hp. A mix of rumor and hope is that the new LT5 will be a supercharged evolution of the 6.2-liter LT1 (pictured) placed in the new C7 Corvette, and that it will go into the C7 version of the ZR1 pumping out something like 700 hp.
The LTX trademark is, as with that last letter, a complete mystery. If the "X" isn't a generic way to denote the whole LT family, it's wondered if it LTX could refer to a crate motor offering like the LSX.
Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.
