 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.

2016 Chevy Volt powertrain video teasers

Fri, Oct 31 2014

If there's one thing we've learned about plug-in vehicle fans, you have a thing for seeing your cars get made. The series of videos showing BMW i3 production was strangely popular, as were the shots from inside the VW e-Golf plant. Well, with General Motors pulling the veil off of the 2016 Chevy Volt this week, it's time to take a peek at the production process for that vehicle as well. You're welcome. Up first we've got a clip from CNN Money showing a little bit about how the new Volt's new battery pack and other powertrain components are made. Those of you who are trying to read the lithium tea leaves and see if the new shape reveals that the 2016 Volt will have five seats might want to check it out. Then we've got two clips from GM itself, one showing an animation about the updated Voltec powertrain and another with some B Roll of the old Volt. Since GM doesn't want us to see the new car quite yet, we'll have to enjoy this for now. Watch below. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

Autoblog fan favorite car ads from Super Bowl XLIX

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Super Bowl XLIX is in the books, and the New England Patriots emerged victorious. Of course, if you're like us, the big game wasn't so much about the battle between the east coast and west, so much as a fight between the world's automotive advertisers. We collected and collated all of last night's new ads and put them together for you to vote on. And yes, we're limiting this year's contest to last night's new features. That's why you aren't seeing Dodge's epic Wisdom among our collection of commercials, and it's a similar story with Chevrolet's Truck Guy Focus Group series, which highlights the new Colorado. You can still vote for your favorites. We won't be closing the voting on our Super Bowl page, so while the winners and losers are correct as of this writing, it's entirely possible that there could be some changes in the rankings as time goes on. So, without any further ado, here are the winning ads based on your voting. Nissan: With Dad Fiat: Ready For Action Jeep: Beautiful Lands BMW: Newfangled Idea Mercedes-Benz: Fable NASCAR: America Start Your Engines As for those ads that failed to impact you, loyal readers, Toyota was the absolute, undisputed loser. The Japanese brand ran four ads in total – two for Toyota and two for Lexus – and all of them have negative tallies as of this writing. Lexus' Make Some Noise and Lets Play and Toyota's One Bold Choice and My Bold Dad both had very weak showings among the commercials that aired, although they weren't alone. Neither Mazda nor Kia scored particularly well, despite featuring celebrity magic act Penn and Teller and former James Bond, Pierce Brosnan, respectively. Chevrolet was the winner of the losers, as of our writing, recording the fewest downvotes for its audience-punking The Big Game ad. If you want to take a second look at the losing ads, you can head back to our Super Bowl page for the complete collection. But for now, head into Comments and let us know what you think of the results.

2020 Chevy Trax spied sporting design cues from the new Blazer

Wed, Oct 3 2018

We saw spy shots in August for what we thought was either a redesigned Chevrolet Trax or new GMC subcompact crossover. At the time we were leaning Chevy. But after this latest batch of spy shots taken near GM's proving grounds, we're now thinking this one is the Trax replacement and the other one was a GMC. For one, the thin row of LEDs looks remarkably similar to the 2019 Chevy Blazer's LED strip. The additional light slightly below that is similar to the Blazer as well, leading us to believe that the next Trax will have a Blazer-esque front end. At first glance, this vehicle looks slightly larger than today's Trax with a much brawnier shape than the current blob-like design. The rear roof cladding could be hiding the same sloped rear window with spoiler hangover we see on the Blazer. Circling back to the other small GM crossover we caught testing, this one doesn't have those Blazer elements. The curved windshield and sloping roof are like those of the GMC Terrain, as are the horizontal grille bars. By contrast, the above car has a straighter windshield and a roof shaped more like the Blazer. One element that does seem to diverge from the new Blazer are the taillights, but they don't exactly look production-ready anyway. If we're right about this being the next Trax (and we're pretty sure we are) then this looks to be a more distinctive vehicle than what it will replace. The mirrors have left their awkward spot on the doors, and it's shaping up to be a much sportier looking crossover as a whole. This vehicle will most likely end up being a 2020 model year car, and if so, we would expect to see undisguised photos of both it and the assumed GMC version next year.
