1978 El Camino Ss on 2040-cars
Wilmington, Delaware, United States
Interior is in very good condition, has a Pioneer AM / FM / Cassette Stereo, with Radio Shack rear speakers. Springs, Shocks and Trailer Hitch are almost new, they came off my 86 El Camino. Comes with set of studded snow tires on the rims., Stainless Steel brake lines from Pro-Tube, custom 7 piece set still new in the box. Car is being sold "AS IS". Excellent project car, I don't have a lot of information on it, I bought it a couple years ago to restore but the guy I bought it from didn't know anything about it's history either. The body is in pretty bad shape with rust in all the normal places. Most of the rust is towards the rear, the quarter panels may need to be replaced. I see a couple little holes in the bed, I hadn't noticed them before but I have kept it covered for most of the 3 + years I've had it so maybe they were under the bed liner and I just hadn't notice them. I will try to answer any questions, but this is an "As Is" project car, I really don't want to sell it but I have too many projects and too many cars. I am not going to take it apart to find out what gears are in it or what is stamped on the block. I just don't have the time, sorry. I think this is going to make an excellent car and that someone is going to get very lucky, again I just don't have the time to do everything. Motor would appear to be a Goodwrench crate motor, valve covers say 350 but it could be a 305. I drove the car home when I bought it. My intention was to get the body work and under carriage issues done and then rebuild and stroke the engine or put a crate 5.7 HO engine in it before it got the final paint. After I checked everything out I decided to fix the brake lines, do a tune up and clean up the wiring so that if I had to drive it to anywhere for any reason it would be running and safe. When I was doing the tune up, I didn't like the way they had rigged up the plug on the distributor cap so I pulled all the wiring off and rewired the plug. Apparently when I had the distributor cap off addressing the plug I missed the ground connection from the ignition module. It wasn't firing after I replaced the cap and wires so I opted to wait to troubleshoot it until I had a little more time. Long story short when I found the time, a year later, the battery was dead so it should still run with no other real issues but again I don't have the time to repair it and if I did make the time, the price of the car would at least triple. Rear view mirror needs to be glued back on. There's no battery and when I went out to check the mileage I noticed the knob on window crank is missing.

Car Club USA: Louisiana Mudfest
Tue, Jun 16 2015There's nothing quite like mudding. Big tires, huge power, and crazy-wild gearheads that like to throw down on a mud pit almost as much as a thirty rack of Coors. In the latest, and some might argue greatest yet episode of Car Club USA, we head to Louisiana to throw some dirt at Mudfest. As Louisiana's one and only Mouth of the South puts it, "If you don't mud ride... go to Texas I guess." Joining The Mouth and friendly rivals The Most Hated Mud Sluts, we dive in. Beyond the obvious V8 blasting and tractor-tire spinning, those who know best describe Mudfest as, "Good cooking, good friends, good fun, and a lot of partying." It's a motorsport spectacle unlike any you're likely to find up North or out West, though no less impressive to behold. Follow along with the fun, the impromptu drag racing, the trash talking, and the mechanical madness. And find out why, at Mudfest, "if we don't tear it up, we ain't done it right." Each Car Club USA episode features a different car club or event from across the US, where passionate owner communities gather to share automotive experiences and embark on incredible adventures. From Main Street cruises to off-road trails, catch all the latest car club activity on Autoblog. Chevrolet Ford Jeep RAM Truck Off-Road Vehicles Car Club USA Videos autoblog black

Sinkhole Opens Up In National Corvette Museum, Swallows Eight Cars
Wed, Feb 12 2014More cars are being moved inside the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Ky. to avoid falling down the same sinkhole that swallowed eight classic sports cars early this morning, Autoblog reported. Museum officials said the hole was discovered when motion sensors activated around 5:45 a.m. The rescue mission can be viewed on the museum's live feed cameras, which weren't working after the sinkhole emerged. A 1993 ZR-1 Spyder and a 2009 ZR1 "Blue Devil," both on loan from General Motors, were among the cars that fell into the sinkhole. The museum owned the other affected Corvettes, which included a 1963 Corvette, a 1984 PPG Pace Car and the 1 millionth Corvette ever produced. The state of the cars at the bottom of the hole isn't known, but trial lawyer and sinkhole expert Ted Corless said the cars may be a total loss for the museum and GM. "Most states, including Kentucky, exclude damage caused by sinkhole activity," he said. "There will be, in all likelihood, a claim made, but a lot of policies would specifically exclude these kinds of damages." Corless has 15 years experience dealing with sinkholes. He said that typically neither the building, nor the cars themselves are protected under their insurance policies. "I would have to say, more likely then not, they're going to have an uninsured loss measured in the hundreds of thousands of dollars." The museum is closed Wednesday while a structural engineer assesses the damage.
