Up for auction with a very reasonable reserve is a very nice 1984 Chevrolet El Camino with Factory 305 V8 and Turbo 350 automatic transmission with 166K.  Car has power windows, power door locks with remote key fob, and power driver seat.

This El Camino has been well maintained with a lot of custom touches.  All new interior, consisting of a very nice combination of black vinyl and suede.  Seats were completely redone, door panels are all new, custom covered rear panel, new black carpet and full black suede headliner and visors. Very nice sounding stereo system with a Clarion nz500 flip out 7" touch-screen radio with iPod integration. The rear speakers are Alpine 6x9’s with some JL 4x6’s in the dash.  Behind the hidden compartment is an Alpine type R subwoofer powered by an Alpine PDX amp that sounds very nice. 

As for the suspension, just about everything has been upgraded or replaced.  It has Hotchkis lowering springs and Edelbrock shocks on all 4 corners.  Both front and rear sway bars were upgraded with Addco’s.  New upper and lower front control arms, new idler arm, new pitman arm, new center link, new inner and outer tie rods with Edelbrock billet adjusters as well as all new ball joints.  When the suspension was rebuilt the car also had new front disc brakes with new drilled and slotted rotors and a throaty sounding 2-1/2" Flowmaster true dual exhaust. 

Wheels are staggered chrome IROC’s - 16x7 up front and 16x8 on the rear.  Rear tires still have plenty of tread but the front are in need of replacing.

The body is in overall good shape the previous owner painted it and did a color matched linex bedliner the paint is not show quality and has some hazy areas but overall looks good and the car gets compliments everywhere it is driven.  Body had typical dents and dings of a 20 year old car and the bed shows wear from being used to haul parts around town and could use some touch up.  All faded lenses were replaced with new, at the same time a new billet grill and new chrome headlight bezels were also installed.  The new lenses and chrome really make this El Camino stand out from most others and people always compliment it.

Carb was rebuilt three months ago, also recently installed a new headlight dimmer switch, new ignition switch, new fan switch, new blower motor and all fluids have been recently changed.  Just had new plugs, new air filter and an oil change.  This car has been well maintained and is ready for a new owner.

Car is being sold as-is with no warranty expressed or implied.  I recommend that any potential bidder come see this car in person so there are no surprises.  If you have any questions or would like to come check it out feel free to call me.  336.339.6867

Opel pulls out of Russia, GM to focus on Cadillac, 'iconic' Chevys

Wed, Mar 18 2015

General Motors is going to realign its priorities in the struggling Russian marketplace, withdrawing its Opel brand and pulling out mainstream Chevrolet models. Instead, the General will take aim at Russia's well-established oligarchy, pushing Cadillac as well as "iconic" Chevrolet models, like the Corvette, Camaro and Tahoe. "This change in our business model in Russia is part of our global strategy to ensure long-term sustainability in markets where we operate," GM president Dan Ammann said in a statement. "This decision avoids significant investment into a market that has very challenging long-term prospects." Russian customers interested in an Opel or mainstream Chevys like the Spark, Aveo (the US market Sonic), Cobalt (shown above), Cruze, Orlando and the like have until December to snap up a car before the brands are pulled. "We do not have the appropriate localization level for important vehicles built in Russia and the market environment does not justify a major investment to further localize." Opel Group CEO Karl-Thomas Neumann said. GM will continue to offer service to customers in Russia. "We can assure our customers that we will continue to provide warranty, parts and services for their Chevrolet and Opel vehicles," Neumann said. Beyond realigning its brands in Russia, GM also announced that it would also be idling the company's factory in the country's second-largest city, St. Petersburg. This is the second time the St. Petersburg factory has been in the news – GM announced that it'd be idled for roughly two months back in February. Scroll down for the official press release from GM.

GM will focus on the premium segment of the Russian market with Cadillac and U.S.-built iconic Chevrolet products such as the Corvette, Camaro and Tahoe. The Chevrolet brand will minimize its presence in Russia and the Opel brand will leave the market by December 2015. "This change in our business model in Russia is part of our global strategy to ensure long-term sustainability in markets where we operate," said GM President Dan Ammann.
