Rust-free Ga El Camino Coquista In Exceptional Cond, 88k Orig Miles, Ut Orange on 2040-cars
Alpharetta, Georgia, United States
How about it VOLS fans (or Longhorns fans, too)? What better way to show up at Neyland (or Royal) next fall that in this Classic El Camino in your favorite colors? Of course, we don't want to exclude other classic car fans, either. In fact who wouldn't get the biggest kick out of daily driving, or just cruising in this great GM A body unique design? The good news is that for whatever reason you buy, you are going to get a CarFax DOCUMENTED 88,000 MILE, NO ACCIDENTS, RUST-FREE FL/GA, great running and smooth handling car that is TOTALLY USABLE and elicits THUMBS-UP at every light. Let me repeat part of that; RUST FREE, that means none, nada, clean! The bright orange repaint was done after a strip to bare metal (it only measures 6mil) and there is only two small patches of filler needed to smooth out minor dents. The bed is in incredible shape - not only NO RUST, but no sign of there ever having been even the usual scratches, dents, and surface corrosion you'd expect. Look closely at the pictures; you'll see! The bed topper is a GM original option from what we understand and it, too, is in great shape and is very easy for two people to remove and reinstall. The engine is the original 5.0 V8, though the power-robbing air pump has been disconnected and an Edelbrook aluminum manifold and a BRAND NEW HOLLEY 4-barrel have been installed. The HEI ignition was recently replaced, all the way down to the distributor shaft for easy starts and very smooth running. Tires are very recent MICHELIN'S and the brakes are up to par.
The cabin is very clean, smoke-free, and really quite comfortable with a split-bench seat and tilt column. Being a CONQUISTA, it features POWER WINDOWS and a REMOTE-CONTROL MIRROR (whoo-hoo!). The carpet is in need of replacement and the new one is included in the deal. But that's about all the new owner will need to do to make this car show-ready or cruise-worthy. AND you can haul pine straw from HOME DEPOT in it; try that in your 'Vette or custom A-body coupe. In short, this is a NO EXCUSES, NO STORIES, straight-up car. It starts every time, hot or cold. Idles in traffic indefinitely without the temp gauge moving up. It will bury its 85mph speedometer easily and effortlessly cruise all day at that speed, the 4-speed Overdrive trans netting fuel economy certainly at least on par with a modern big SUV! The car does not shake or rattle, but it does ROLL! As you would expect from a babied 88k car, the suspension is tight (as tight as '80s cars get, that is) and the body sits properly on the unitized frame. Doors and tailgate shut with authority. The Chrome is excellent with most of the rubber trim having been replaced in the last few years. In order words - NOT A PROJECT CAR! But don't hesitate to give us a call with your questions or to schedule a test drive or Pre-Purchase Inspection. We will also help with shipping, domestically or internationally. Just ask. Call us at 770-667-5280. And thanks for looking... |

Buick Encore, Chevy Trax earn Top Safety Pick from IIHS [w/video]
Thu, Feb 12 2015The Buick Encore has been a massive sales success practically from the moment it debuted, and Buick recently decided to increase production to keep up with demand for the premium compact crossover. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety recently put one to the test again, and the Encore earned a Top Safety Pick award. It's the first model from the brand to score the nod since 2013, according to the IIHS, and the rating also carries over to the 2015 Chevrolet Trax. The 2015 Encore scored a Good rating in all of the IIHS' evaluations, including the 40-mile-per-hour, small overlap front crash test. That was a big improvement over the previous model the institute tested, which scored a Poor result in the overlap test. In the first test, about 13 inches of the lower door hinge pillar came into the passenger compartment, and the steering wheel airbag moved too far to protect the dummy's head. Improvements for the latest model year showed six inches of intrusion this time, and the airbags caught the dummy's head well. The dummy's sensors also indicated a low risk of injury. The two CUVs missed out on the full Top Safety Pick+ because the IIHS scored the Encore as only having a basic front crash prevention system, and there was no such equipment for the Trax. To earn the highest mark, models need at least an advanced rating by the institute for this technology. Buick Encore, Chevrolet Trax earn 2015 TOP SAFETY PICK award ARLINGTON, Va. - A small SUV is the first vehicle from the Buick brand to qualify for a TOP SAFETY PICK award from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety since 2013. The Buick Encore's newly introduced, lower-priced twin, the Chevrolet Trax, also qualifies for the honor. The Encore's award follows improvements to the SUV's structure for better small overlap front protection. The 2015 model earns a good rating in the small overlap test. In contrast, the 2013-14 Encore rated poor in the test. The driver's space was seriously compromised with intrusion measuring as much as 13 inches at the lower door hinge pillar. The dummy's head barely contacted the front airbag before sliding off the left side, as the steering column moved to the right. The side curtain airbag deployed too late and didn't have sufficient forward coverage to protect the head. In the latest test, the driver space was maintained reasonably well, with maximum intrusion of 6 inches at the door hinge pillar and instrument panel. The dummy's movement was well-controlled.
GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title
Thu, 12 Sep 2013General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.
