I am offering my 1979 Chevy El Camino "Candy O". I am the proud owner of this vehicle for now 10 years! This was a FRAME OFF RESTORATION done 4 years ago. I am going to explain the detail but I could write for days so again call or e-mail with questions. Car is an original V8/Th350 automatic. I installed a 1971 Camaro 307 V8 4 years ago. The mileage on the engine at that point in time was about 55k. The guy with camaro put in 600+hp engine and had no use for original engine. This was a score for me. The engine was a virgin as they come. Rated at 9.1 Compression and 200hp it is more powerful that the typical 1980's 350 and superior over the 140hp 305's of the same time period! I installed HEI ignition as well as a 1980 Corvette Rochester 4 barell mated to an Edlebrock proformer intake backed by $1000.00 of pypes dual exhaust and ceramic headers! Going easy pushing 240 HP if not better. ZERO running issues at all. I put at least 35,000k on it since I installed the engine. The point in case is the car didn't sit around. I used it again and again! The transmission is a Th350 3 speed automatic. I had this rebuilt by a professional trans shop in NJ. MAYBE if it has 10k on it that would be a lot. The complete front end was rebuilt, all new upper/lower conrol arm bushings, springs all around, new calipers, brake drums, master cylinder. EVERY SINGLE BRAKE LINE was replaced BRAND NEW. YES EVERY LINE.... BRAND NEW (7 out of 10 G Body GM cars have time bomb brake lines ticking away waiting to explode and leave you stranded). All new flex hoses. The body was removed from the chassis and I replaced the whole chassis with a perfect rot free one! (The prior chassis was rotted in 3 places) ALL NEW BODY MOUNTS WERE INSTALLED. AM/FM CD player, speakers in box behind seat. The bottom of the car is just about new. NO HOLES IN FLOORS. NO HOLES IN BODY.Bottom of the car painted in satin black 4 years ago. The rear end was rebuilt and 3.42 gears were installed. It has massive acceleration power from a standstill. Most lazy rear ends were 2.41 2.73 in these cars. NO WIRING ISSUES WHATSOEVER. Everything works, all lights, horn, heater. It is a FACTORY STYLE NO A/C car. (included but not shown in photos is a complete A/C unit I saved from another car of same vintage as well as many other misc odd items I have hoarded away, trim, mechanical, etc- There is a street value in these items alone. All goes with car upon sale)The bed will be loaded with all extra parts for new owner to keep or sell. The paint was stripped to the bare metal and car is painted with basecoat/clear Diamont products (not cheap ). Bumpers are like new, the only defect I want to mention is some surface paint bubbles in both front corners of the doors. THE DOORS ARE NOT ROTTED! They are solid as a rock. This is common in this 78-88 G body cars as that is where moisture collects. If this is offensive to you $500 addition will correct it before you take the car. If not you take it as is. I have ZERO to hide and most would not even mention it. It's not even that bad I am honest seller and don't have time to waste by telling stories. I live in NY 10920. Car is also for local sale. Listing may end at any given time. IF you want the car come view in person if need be. If you bid on it from far away, know and understand that bid is contract. I don't want to deal with confused people who don't have the money or bid for the purpose of their entertainment. The car is well worth $10,000 if not better. My RESERVE IS NO WHERE NEAR THAT. I don't owe this car a nickel. It's been with me ten years. I am bailing out and calling it a day. FAR MORE IN IT THAT IT'S ACTUAL VALUE. Terms of sale are as follows. $500 pay pal deposit no more than 24 hours after end of auction. If you DO NOT HAVE IT, DO NOT BID. The rest cash in hand, bank check, or direct deposit. I am not going to ACCEPT PAY PAL as payment of car, if that is your intention do business elsewhere. This isn't a part, this is a vehicle. A vehicle I am giving away, so let's make this transaction quick and to the point. The full amount is due no more than 7 days after the end of auction. All non paying bidders will be reported. Please be serious and back up your bid for the fairness of others. Car is AS/IS, WHERE IS in NY 10920. Buyer is responsible for all transport fees to their home. Come pick up and drive home after paid in full. I have a CLEAN NY tittle in my name. It is the ownership of the vehicle. Do your homework.... $1500-3000 or so buys you junk. You will put more into something you buy for that price. I did all the work for you, find the money. This is worth it. I have others at a local level who dream about this so I'm just waiting on an educated cash offer and it leaves my life.... time waits for no one.... no favorites. Thanks for reading.....

Before Chevrolet's Redline, there was the Saturn Red Line
Thu, Feb 9 2017While Chevy rolls out Redline special editions across more of the lineup at this year's Chicago Auto Show, we've been eating some 'member berries and started thinking about the last time GM used the term. Back in 2004, Saturn rolled out Red Line (two words) editions of the Ion and Vue. The lineup was joined by the Sky Red Line in 2007, and the second-generation Vue kept the tradition going in 2008. This was in the heady days of the mid-2000s, before the financial crisis and GM's bankruptcy reorganization that saw the end of Saturn. The press release headline for the 2008 Sky is now cringe-worthy: "Hot-selling Sky helps drive Saturn product renaissance." Performance lineups were the hot new thing, as automakers attempted to cash in on the tuner trend popularized by The Fast and the Furious. Chevy had SS models, Pontiac had GXP, and Saturn had Red Line. Across the Detroit Metro area, Dodge had a slew of SRT models, and Ford's Special Vehicle Team brought us the SVT Lightning pickup, the SVT Focus, and a smattering of hopped-up Mustangs. The performance cred of Red Line models varied from car to car. The Ion Red Line shared the same engine as the original Chevy Cobalt SS, a 205-horsepower supercharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder, 65 hp more than stock. Car and Driver tested one with a 0-to-60-mph time of 6.1 seconds and said the Ion "tears down the wall that has separated enthusiasts from the Saturn brand for so long." The Vue Red Line, meanwhile, came with the same optional Honda-sourced 3.5-liter V6 you could get in the regular Vue, and added a stiffer, lower suspension, bigger wheels with more aggressive rubber, and recalibrated steering assist. When the Vue was redesigned for the 2008 model year, the Vue Red Line was a similar proposition. The engine was now from GM, and up 7 horsepower to 257, but you could get it in both Red Line and XE trim. Aside from the tire and suspension upgrades, Red Line models now came with a unique front fascia and rear exhaust cutouts. The most exciting Red Line, of course, was the high-performance version of the Sky roadster, which shared underpinnings with its Pontiac Solstice twin. This model came with GM's hot 2.0-liter Ecotec Turbo, good for 260 horsepower. The extra power was crucial in covering up the Sky's unfortunate manual gearbox ratios, which left the non-turbo model aching for torque in lower gears. As we all know, Saturn was taken by the grim reaper in 2009 after an attempt to sell the brand to the Penske Group.
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.
Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too
Fri, 07 Dec 2012We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.
