ONE FANTASTIC EL CAMINO SS396*! When I inspected this vehicle at purchase, it appeared to have had (and still does appear) a frame-off restoration with no evident rust. Fully optioned with working A/C (appears to be factory). Options or add-ons include A/C, power windows, locks, steering and brakes, tilt wheel, complete gauge set appears to be factory, vinyl top, 396, SS badging, cowl induction (not working well), vinyl top, hood pins, posi rear (I added that) with 355 gears, bucket seats, SS stripes (clear coated in), 15” rally type wheels, console and four speed. It appears to have had the rear quarters replaced and the car appears to be bondo free. I do not believe it is matching numbers or original motor. The paint is extremely nice (I'd give it a 9 out of 10) and the interior appears to have been replaced by the original restorer. From what I know about the history it appears to have been a Southern car and has no evidence of salt corrosion and the chrome is excellent. You can see from the photos that the frame rails are clean and solid. Also, I have no proof of the provenance (If I did it I would expect to get a much higher price) of it being born an SS car (*) and therefore it could be a clone. My research indicates that, unlike the Malibus, El Caminos in 1970 did not have SS-specific VIN numbers. However, if a potential buyer knows how to otherwise decode the VIN or other stampings, I will definitely supply that information and you can authenticate. The best I can tell, the VIN indicates this as a 136 code “Deluxe El Camino”. I spent a lot of money making this car “right” even though it was pretty much done when I purchased it. I had my mechanic fix the non-working or safety issues that bothered me. Those items were wiring gremlins, A/C issues and such. Why am I selling? Well, it's like this, I am a car guy and get tired of cars really fast. I have 10 vehicles and 4 motorcycles and I change them out routinely. Your gain is my loss as I have LOTS MORE MONEY in this than the asking price and I am sure the last owner had more money in it than what I bought it for. If you paid retail to re-do a car to this condition you'd spend upwards of $50,000 depending on what you spent to acquire the car. I am a total car guy and am a fair seller and fair buyer. I'm glad to answer any questions or show you the car. I'm happy to help load the car for shipping. Mileage stated is EXEMPT, and I do not know how many miles are on the car. (EBay requires mileage to be filled in so I just put 100,000.) There are lots of muscle cars out there and as I have found out, you’ll often buy one only to find out lots of stuff doesn’t work and you spend tens of thousands of dollars getting it right. Well, I already spent those tens of thousands. What doesn’t work (from my observation): the clock (surprised?), the cowl induction flapper works sometimes, and the Delco auto leveling device (appears to be a dealer add-on) does not work. Please email me if you have questions. I’m a full disclosure guy and will tell you anything or everything I know about the vehicle. I try to represent the cars I sell the best way I know how. I have been the victim of “over-represented” cars in the past and it’s not a pleasant experience. For that reason I suggest a personal inspection or have the buyer hire an independent inspector. Please look at the photos. I’ve tried to photograph as best as I can so you can see the condition. The car is being sold AS-IS, with NO WARRANTY and is MILEAGE EXEMPT and does not have a state inspection as it is titled as a Texas antique vehicle. I will assist in shipping by taking the car to a shipper’s location within 20 miles of Austin, Texas. Cost of shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. I require a $2,500 deposit via PayPal within 48 hours of your successful bid. NEW BIDDERS, or (0 ) FEEDBACK BIDDERS, please e-mail me FIRST, to have your bids approved AS A NEW BIDDER by the Seller, to show your full intent & understanding to purchase & follow through with payment.

2016 Chevy Silverado puts on a better face
Mon, Jul 13 2015When Chevrolet introduced the redesigned Silverado pickup for 2014, you, our loyal readers, gave the new truck's front-end a lukewarm response. Aside from saying it was ugly, one commenter came to the far more damning conclusion that this brand-new vehicle already looked dated. For 2016, Chevy has attempted to address opinions like that, issuing a comprehensive facelift to its bread-and-butter pickup. Designers cut way back on the chrome for 2016, fitting a body-color strip across the middle of the grille and going to a single-headlight design. Combined with twin LED running lamps, the new look is much more modern while still harkening back to the retro-ish look introduced a few years back. The new truck also gets a much more muscular and aggressive hood, while the front bumper is significantly more modern, and features vertical housings for what look like LED foglights. The bad news, here, is that there's only one picture, shown above. We have no idea what changes Chevy has made to the rear of the pickup, nor do we know what other versions of the truck beyond the Z71 seen here may be available. The Bowtie brand did, however, confirm that we'd see a wider application of the eight-speed automatic transmission, as well as a new version of the MyLink infotainment system, which will play nice with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Look for much more on the freshened Silverado when it makes its official debut this fall. Until then, check out the press release and hop into Comments. We'd love to hear what you think about this facelift. 2016 Silverado: The New Face of Strong - Bolder, more sculpted look reflects Silverado strength, dependability - Available support for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay - Expanded use of 8-speed transmissions; additional safety technologies DETROIT – Chevy Trucks are on a roll, with Chevrolet pickup sales up 32 percent so far this year. Chevrolet intends to strengthen this momentum with significant updates for the 2016 Silverado 1500 full-size pickup. "The redesigned 2016 Silverado will build on Chevy Trucks' legacy of dependability. It will feature a more muscular appearance and offer new customer-focused technologies," said Sandor Piszar, marketing director for Chevy Trucks.

2015 Chevy Silverado gets Custom Sport package
Wed, Jan 7 2015It's been on our mind for a couple of years that the Chevrolet Silverado could really use "a sophisticated monochromatic look." It is, at long last, a reality. Harking back to the Custom Sport Trucks the company produced in the 1960s, the 2015 Custom Sport package can be had in black or white on LT and LTZ models for those in search of "a touch of elegance." That means body-colored front and rear bumpers and grille surround, a black grille, and chrome applied to the door handles, mirror caps, side moldings and 20-inch wheels. The package, which will cost between $1,950 an $2,950, also throws in projector beam headlamps, tow hooks, and heated mirrors. LT trims can be had in black or white, LTZ trims - including Z71 - offer the choice of black or White Diamond Tricoat. The press release below has more information. Don't everybody rush to the dealer at once. 2015 SILVERADO OFFERS CUSTOM SPORT PACKAGE Inspired by Chevy Custom Sport Trucks that helped launch personal-use pickups DETROIT, 07/01/15 – With the new 2015 Silverado Custom Sport special edition, Chevrolet pays homage to one of its most iconic pickups, adding a sophisticated monochromatic look to double- and crew-cab Silverados. The Custom Sport package features body-colored front and rear bumpers and a body-colored grille surround with a chrome-accented black grille. Other accents include 20-inch chrome wheels, chrome door handles and mirror caps, and chrome body-side moldings. The package also includes projector beam headlamps, tow hooks and heated power-adjusted mirrors. "The Custom Sport special edition was inspired by Chevy Custom Sport Trucks of the late 1960s," said Sandor Piszar, Chevrolet Trucks marketing director. "Those CST models added a touch of elegance to a great all-around truck, just like the Custom Sport package for the new Silverado." The redesigned 1967 Chevrolet pickup entered the market at a time when trucks were starting to move off the jobsites and into the driveways of cities and suburbs. The 1967 Custom Sport Truck, with its bright trim, plush carpet and bucket seats, helped launch a wave of personal use pickups that continues today. For the 2015 Silverado, the Custom Sport package will be available as LT and LTZ models, including Z71s. LT models will be available in black or white, while LTZs will come in black or White Diamond Tricoat. Package prices will vary from $1,950 to $2,950, depending on the model. Dealers can place orders starting this month.
