This is a 1978 El Camino V8. This vehicle was donated to help animal welfare as we are a 501c3 Non-Profit Organization. This car has current tags and is good until October 2013. We also have the California required smog cert for CA transfer....Car also has 4 new tires. Car is a great driver and only needs some body attention. It was a show car back 10 years or more...but now needs 3 little rust spots repaired but with the custom paint job such as this....you could just repaint the upper roof and seam line at the bed...a solid color or the 4-way changing color paint. See photos and you will see what involved. This paint back in the 1990's was $4,000 per gallon and would take a gallon and a half to paint this car. Hence the total paint job was worth $8,500 when done. The interior is in good shape.
We are See Noahs Ark whose task is to help other non-profit's liquidate donated assets. Being a donated vehicle, we dont know much about this car, but it does have a passing smog certificate. This vehicle is sold as is. This vehicle's net dollars will be shared with the Ventura County Humane Society (a no kill shelter).
Winning bidder will be required to make contact with us within 24 hours to make payment and shipping arrangements. (Buyer responsible for shipping or pickup arrangements)

Next-gen Chevy Volt gets Corvette looks, adjustable regen levels
Sat, Dec 20 2014The hood may say "full speed ahead." The regenerative braking system says "slow down a bit." One person's automotive improvements is another's identity crisis, all in a day's work analyzing the new Chevrolet Volt. The next-generation version of General Motors' first extended-range plug in will include design touches taken from to the new Chevrolet Corvette, GM's iconic sports car. Hexagonal taillights and a "taut" hood will be part of the new package, Automotive News says, citing General Motors design chief Ed Wilbur. But does that mean the Volt is shedding any of its green-car cred? Not at all, if one considers that the Volt will also let the driver adjust the degree of regenerative braking using steering-wheel paddles to dial up and recapture as much energy as possible and engage in "one-pedal" driving or turn it down for easier coasting. Check out the 55-second video below featuring GM executives Mark Reuss and Andrew Farah trying out the Volt's new regenerative-braking system that was first used on the Cadillac ELR. GM will have more details for us when it unveils the 2016 Chevy Volt at the North American Auto Show in Detroit next month. The new version is said to have a larger battery, a longer all-electric driving range and more power, but Chevy's been fairly mum on those sorts of performance details so far.

Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future
Wed, 19 Nov 2014The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.
