1974 SUPER SPORT EL CAMINO! LOADED WITH ITS ORIGINAL 454, PS, PB'S, AND AC!

1974 SUPER SPORT EL CAMINO! A TRUE NUMBERS MATCHING 454 BIG BLOCK CAR THAT IS LOADED WITH OPTIONS! AIR CONDITIONING, POWER STEERING, & POWER BRAKES! ALL ORIGINAL & SOLID SHEET METAL! PROFESSIONALLY REPAINTED THIS YEAR! LOTS OF MONEY INVESTED JUST THIS YEAR ALONE!

     This El Camino is truly remarkable. Not often can I say this but in this case, the photos as well as video do not do this El Camino a bit of justice. Over the last year this El Camino has received a tremendous amount of work. From brake and suspension work to the most significant enhancement, having it professionally repainted. Just within the last two weeks we installed the SS stripes as well as equipped it with a brand new set of 17" wheels and Nitto tires. The only mileage the wheels and tires have seen are what you've viewed within the video. Maybe ten miles at this point? A few years ago, the motor was also rebuilt and as you can see, everything was put back exactly how it should be. Mechanically the El Camino drives out like it just came off of the showroom floor.

Body: This El Camino is completely rust free. It retains all of its original sheet metal which is extremely straight. Which means that the El Camino managed to survive over three decades with out ever being molested or hacked on. That in its own is a fairly rare feat! Nearly a year ago, the El Camino was stripped and repainted. The craftsmanship is remarkable. The paint shines out beautifully and the stripes line up extremely well. The El Camino has a brand new setup of 17" custom wheels which are wrapped in brand new high dollar Nitto tires. I actually just purchased these and had them put in less than a week ago! They really give the El Camino that perfect stance. All of the glass through out the El Camino is in excellent shape as is all of the trim. The El Camino also retains its original Jack which can be seen within the photos located below. I also have a brand new El Camino emblem for the tail gate.

Engine & Mechanical: The El Camino still retains its original 454 big block. Which according to the previous owner, was rebuilt approximately three years ago and has little to no miles on it. He had driven it about one hundred miles the entire time he owned it and I know that we've put less then that on it since owning it. I would estimate that the motor has less than a thousand miles on it. It does not have a single mechanical issue. It starts up every time and runs out exceptionally well. The same can be said for the transmission. It shifts smoothly through out its gears and has zero mechanical problems. When the motor was installed, that is when new dual exhaust was installed. The exhaust setup compliments the motor very well as it sounds absolutely tremendous. The power steering setup works flawlessly as does the power brake setup. It does have front disc with rear drums. The El Camino does not squeak, shake, or pull when stopping. All of the electrical components through out the El Camino are in excellent working order. The turn signals, head lights, tail lights, the AC, windshield wiper blades, everything works! Even the original 8 Track radio still works (which can be viewed in the video below). The El Camino also is equipped with its original and larger ten bolt rear end. The shocks through out the El Camino have been updated and provide for a much smoother ride.

Interior: The majority of the interior has been redone and is of excellent condition. The bench seat has been recovered, a new headliner has been installed, the carpet is new, the door panels are new, and the new dash pad we just installed in the last week. About the only thing that the interior needs are the vents could be repainted. They are not cracked or broken but they are faded.

     These big block El Caminos are already fairly difficult to find. Now throw in the fact that it retains all of its original sheet metal, that it hasn't been butchered, and that its been fully restored, NOW you've got a whole lot of automobile for a fraction of what it would cost to build one. I personally would love to keep the El Camino but given my current situation, I have to sell it. I will be evaluating all reasonable offers and I will in fact sell the El Camino early as we do have it for sale "locally". I strongly encourage anyone who is interested to please call or email to schedule a time to come check it out. I would also like to add that I am usually on the phone from 7 AM until about 12 AM so you are always welcome to call and if I do not answer, just leave a message and I will return your call immediately. I know from my own experience with purchasing cars online, most of the time it is very difficult to get someone on the phone and to obtain the information you need. So I try to always stay on top of emails and phone calls. We do have a clear title for this El Camino. As always, good luck and happy bidding!

Thanks,

Shawn

The Jitterbugs somersaulted at the 1986 Chicago Auto Show for the Chevy Nova

Tue, Dec 30 2014

Judging by the vintage videos that the Chicago Auto Show has been uploading, if you wanted to check out the latest vehicles and watch some dancers in the same place in the late '80s and early '90s, then the Windy City event was definitely the place to be. We've already seen the Footlockers pitching the Cavalier in '88 and a troupe of women singing about the Geo brand in '91. Apparently, the trend went back even further, though. Just take a look at this group called the Jitterbugs selling some badge-engineered products from Chevrolet at the 1986 show. Flanked by the Chevy Nova and Spectrum, these guys managed to do a few pretty impressive jumps and somersaults but mixed them with some rather uninspired spins, as well. Also, wait for 1:24 into the clip to see the least enthusiastic backup dancers that the world has ever known. The Jitterbugs are even further proof that Chevy's habit of mixing dancing and its vehicles goes back even further than the Volt.

Chevy Volt owners log half a billion electric miles, 2015 production starts

Thu, Jun 19 2014

As General Motors gets ready to start 2015 Volt production Monday, Chevrolet is looking back at some of the numbers that got the car to where it is today. The headline number is that Volt owners have collectively put more than a half-billion electric miles on their cars. The unsurprising upshot is that, if you went out and bought a Volt, you're pretty keen on getting as many electric miles out of it as possible. 90 percent of all Volt trips are done purely on electric power. The typical Volt driver goes 970 miles between fill-ups, GM says, and that means that 63 percent of all miles are done on battery power. General Motors executive director Larry Nitz gave AutoblogGreen a few more details on the usage habits of Volt drivers, including that 81 percent of commuting miles are electric. Two-thirds of US Volt drivers charge their vehicle 1.4 times a day, a clear indicator of drivers trying to maximize electric miles through opportunity charging. In fact, Nitz said, 90 percent of all Volt trips are done purely on electric power. GM also says that the Volt's official 35 miles of electric range is still doable for many owners who have had their car for more than 30 months. Looking ahead, we know that one upgrade for the 2015 Volt will be 4G LTE connectivity that can turn the car, like others in the GM family, into a mobile wifi hotspot. We're of course much more interested in when GM is finally going to start production of the next-gen Volt, but GM officials would only tell us that they're very excited about the still-secret vehicle, promising we'll be learning more "soon." Nitz did confirm that today's Volt drivers are most interested in three things from the next-gen model: more range, a lower price and a fifth seat. He did not say whether or not GM will be able to deliver on those requests. Chevrolet Volt Owners Surpass Half a Billion Electric Miles After 30 months of use, a sampling of Volts shows consistent all-electric range 2014-06-19 DETROIT – Since its launch in late 2010, Chevrolet Volt owners have accumulated more than half a billion all-electric miles. Additionally, based on a General Motors' study of more than 300 Volts in service in California for more than 30 months, many owners are exceeding the EPA-rated label of 35 miles of EV range per full charge, with about 15 percent surpassing 40 miles of range.
