Rare RPO, Kansas City built 1966 El Camino with a VIN matching EF 396-360hp, VIN matching Muncie M-20 4-speed and a code CF 12 bolt 3.31 ratio positraction rear. The original 396 was rebuilt less than 5000 miles ago with .030” over forged TRW pistons, Competition Cams 292H camshaft kit and reconditioned connecting rods with hardened bolts, the original forged crankshaft needed nothing, was polished and left std-std. The cylinder heads received hardened valve seats, 2.19 and 1.88 stainless valves and new bronze guides. An Edelbrock Performer RPM intake was installed in place of the original GM Holley cast iron intake (included) with a new Holley 4777 650 Double Pumper carburetor. For the ignition, a Pertronix unit replaces the breaker points and for the exhaust, the original cast manifolds were put in a box (also included) and a set of custom Mickey Thompson Super Scavenger headers were installed.

During the engine rebuild, the original Muncie M-20 transmission was rebuilt with new bearings, new brass syncros, a reverse idler and a new HD clutch riding on a resurfaced flywheel. The original GM shifter was also rebuilt and re-bushed, it shifts like new.

The original CF code 12 bolt, 3.31 positraction rear differential was also reconditioned with new bearings, seals and gaskets. The front suspension and brake systems were also rebuilt at this time, it drives like new.


Even though it's and older restoration, the body, paint and chrome on this car are still in excellent condition, it's been wet once in past 20 years, sitting at a car show.

The 762 black bucket interior is in excellent condition and has center console with clock and the original and working AM/FM radio. The original tachometer stopped working at one point so a Sun Super Tach was placed in the factory location, it fits perfectly. The original 5600rpm redline tachometer and an extra console clock are also included with car.


Even though Chevrolet didn't offer an SS option for El Camino in '66, but it was entirely possible to build one at your local Chevrolet dealer. Not sure if it was possible to order an SS hood though, the car has one on it but I don't know if it's original or not. So, the hood may or may not be original.

This El Camino is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end auction at any time, thanks for looking and happy bidding!

Forgot to mention that the car also has power steering and power brakes, and that the brakes are drums, front and rear. Sorry for any confusion!

Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.

Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.
