PLEASE READ ENTIRE DESCRIPTION TO UNDERSTAND THIS VEHICLE COMPLETELY, BEFORE BIDDING OR OFFERING. Without wheels/tires in picture, and hood scoop, $300 less. You'll get roller wheels and the hood piece. Now, here's the details. Over 10 years ago, I bought a stripped 59 Elcamino with no interior, but complete otherwise. Sold the old fashioned motor/trans (not sure if they were original), bought a 1982 Chevy pickup, slid the frame under the original X frame, welded them together, made braces where they didn't meet, and drove it and had it inspected every year after. Including the initial required inspection it had to get for the reconstructed title. DON'T BE SCARED OF THE RECONSTRUCTED TITLE. It is only reconstructed because of the alterations I made, not because of any accidents. The title itself no longer states 1959 Chevrolet, it is just stamped "reconstructed" multiple times. It is traced to the El by a new VIN plate issued by Penndot that was riveted to the upper firewall. But it is still currently insured as a custom 59 Elcamino by Grundy Worldwide for about $250 a year full coverage including towing. The body is all original, from what I can tell, and is starting to get a few rust bubbles here and there. Noticable only close up, so far. The "teeth" grille is in now, but I also have the original grille in great condition that goes with it. The motor is a 1973 Chevy Nova 350 4 barrel Edelbrock carb with HEI distributor. The transmission is a mid 70's Turbo 350 with non lockup converter. The rear is from a 1968 Nova and is a positraction unit. The entire functional frame is a 1982 Chevy 2WD pickup truck frame from a truck that was inspected and driven regularly by it's previous owner, until he didn't want it anymore. That's also where the motor and trans came from. The interior was amateur redone. Flame headliner, door panels, and floor mats. Currently has a bench seat in it from a late 80's pickup, where the seat frame was altered to sit lower and match the interior. Not ripped, torn, or busted, but doesn't match, so I threw a blanket on it for now. Really just needs a seat cover to match. Dash has original speedometer, fuel, and temp gauges that appear to work good. Aftermarket battery and oil pressure gauges mounted in the other two dash pods. Tachometer is mounted in the Bud can on the side of the hood scoop. Hood scoop is cutout and functional, but if you want it off, I still have the hood piece I cut out, and it can be welded back in and bodyworked to perfection. everything on this car/truck works. In the back, I cut out the wheel humps in the bed, and flattened them out because it sits high enough that they are no longer needed. The floor was custom made by someone before me. I removed the "hump" as it's no longer needed because of the height. The custom made bed cover is one piece fiberglass, and opens like a hood. I welded in hood hinges. Tailgate still opens and closes. That's about all I can tell you. Any questions left, ask. It is currently PA inspected until 09/14. Rims are Cragar S/S 15X10 rear and 15X8 front. Rear tires are new. Fronts are good used. Reverse lights are under rear bumper. ************BONUS*********** I have almost enough extra parts to practically build another 59 Elcamino. New fenders, new doors, new quarters, good used tailgate, used gauges, trim, glass, just about everything but a frame and hood. for an extra $2000 (firm) I will include them all if wanted. If not, just buy the vehicle and I'll sell the parts seperately. Parts will NOT be sold seperately unless the new owner doesn't want them. You can get me at FIVEsevenZERO sevenFOURzero ONEtwoFOURsix, or TONYKL68 at (opposite of cold)mail dot see oh em. All in small case letters. WANT MORE BIGGER AND BETTER PICTURES? Send a e-address and I'll send them.

Evatran, Bosch will sell wireless home charger for as low as $1,998*
Mon, Jan 6 2014At the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas today, the big news for plug in vehicles is that they can now start to ditch the plug. As expected, the system costs around $3,000 and is available for both the Nissan Leaf and the Chevrolet Volt. For the first 250 customers, though, Evatran is offering $1,000 off the standard price, a 30 percent discount. Deliveries start next month and Evatran says it expects the discounted units to all be snatched up in the first half of the year. The wireless charger charges as quickly as conventional corded systems. Called the Plugless Wireless EV charger, the 240-volt station will be installed by Bosch and needs a specific adapter to be used with the Volt or the Leaf (the Leaf version costs $100 more). So, any two-EV families out there will need to pony up double if there's a Chevy and a Nissan in the garage. Of course, since the Plugless system only works with older Leafs (2010-2012 model years - but with any Volt), any late adopters will not be able to take advantage of the new technology, for now. Evatran says the wireless charger "charges the Volt and Leaf as quickly as conventional corded systems and all vehicle features, such as charge-timers and phone applications, can be used seamlessly with the Plugless system." After the first 250 units, standard prices for the wireless chargers take effect again: $2,998 (Volt) and $3,098 (Leaf). Evatran says it will announce wireless chargers for additional vehicles and model years later this year. Evatran and Bosch offer Promotional Pricing as low as $1,998 to first 250 PLUGLESS™ Wireless EV Charging Customers LAS VEGAS, Jan. 6, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Evatran Group, Inc. ("Evatran"), in partnership with Bosch Automotive Service Solutions, announced today at the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show that it is offering reduced promotional pricing to the first 250 customers who opt to Go PLUGLESS with their electric vehicle ("EV") experience. The PLUGLESS system offers a convenient, wireless charging alternative to the repetitive process of unplugging and plugging-in electric vehicles. The reduced pricing includes all charging hardware and is as much as a 30% discount off the system's standard MSRP. The discount is available only to the first 250 customers. Initial shipments of the PLUGLESS system, the first wireless EV charging product in the world available to individual EV drivers, will begin in February 2014.
Looking back at the Citation IV concept that likely shaped the GM EV1
Wed, Aug 20 2014Those who forget history are condemned to repeat it. We're not sure how that applies to the GM EV1, but we'd still like to share something from Autoline Daily, an online automotive new show with our friend John McElroy. He's been covering the business for decades now and recently found something interesting: pictures of the 1984 Chevrolet Citation IV concept, seen above. Displayed half a decade before the first electric concept that would become the EV1 (inset), McElroy says it's now clear that the elegant, aerodynamic EV1 took a lot of styling cues from the Citation IV, which was developed in part thanks to GM's new-at-the-time Aerodynamics Laboratory. We agree with him that the spats over the rear wheels, the flush glass, and the covered headlights all bear a certain kind of similarity between the two cars. That the colors almost match is a nice coincidence. The Impact (the concept version of the EV1) looked "frumpier," McElroy says, because it wasn't as long as the Citation. You can read a lot more about the Citation IV here and check out McElroy's thoughts in the video below. Find the Citation starting at around 3:45. This content is hosted by a third party.

2016 Lamborghini Huracan at the Horse Thief Mile | AutoblogVR
Tue, Sep 13 2016AutoblogVR returns to the Horse Thief Mile in the Mojave Desert to put the Lamborghini Huracan to the test. It's everything we want a modern supercar to be: Powerful, striking in appearance, and a riot to drive. But does it live up to Lamborghini's unique performance heritage? Senior Editor Greg Migliore reviews the Huracan on Horse Thief's unyielding curves and elevation changes to find out. Meanwhile, Autoblog Editor-in-Chief Mike Austin reviews a different kind of performance car – the Chevy SS at the IndyCar circuit on Detroit's Belle Isle. He's ably assisted by ace driver Simon Pagenaud. You must watch his hot lap! The SS is old-school V8 American muscle wrapped in Australian design and engineering. This AutoblogVR segment also launches on the app Sept. 13, and the teaser follows the Huracan preview above. Each week, new episodes will launch on the AutoblogVR App. We'll preview them here on Autoblog, but for the full immersive experience, head over to the app, which you can download for free from the App store and Google Play. Be sure to try it with a cardboard viewer, too!
