1965 Chevelle/el Camino One Of A Kind 2 Owner Very Special Car Garaged on 2040-cars
Burbank, California, United States
No Reserve The highest bidder owns this El Camino. I bought this car off the original owner in factory original condition 1994. I restored it, showed it, drove it and garaged it over years, the last picture of the car was taken on our drive way in 1995. I have a file full of receipts including the protect-o-plate and original sales receipt etc.. I am letting go of the car without a reserve for personal reasons. I restore classic 60's cars and this el camino is my own personal car. 1965 chevelle/el camino with mostly all it's original parts from the factory. And some non original items such as the front seat upholstery, floor mats, cigarette lighter, radio antenna, engine and drive train. Local California car with no rust bought in Van Nuys California. I had the car lowered 2 inches all around back in 1996 or so. The body is super straight. Recent (less than a year old) 383 4 bolt main stroker engine with all the go fast goodies hand built by myself that's barley broken in with less than 200 miles, B&M turbo 350 3 speed automatic with shift kit and 2500 stall converter, a posi-traction with 411 geared rear end, from back in 1996 all refreshed. The brakes on the car are the factory manual all drum (never upgraded), recently replaced but the car can use a power disc brake conversion kit. The under side of the car looks just as nice as the rest. Exterior and steering wheel were sprayed a sea foam green from hot rod flatz a couple of years back, the dash and door jams were not. The paint has very minor nicks caused by road debris in about five areas, (would need to be up close to see). The front two eyebrow molding around the headlights were bent when installed, also the interior dome light lens is missing (see pic). Everything works lights, signals, radio etc.. The stereo system in the glove box is just the custom box an empty alpine face cover box a pioneer remote and there is a older alpine cd changer in the back along with the cables that were ran all come with the car (the actual stereo system I removed a long time ago). Rims, tires, shocks, trim, paint, moldings, chrome, bumpers are all like new condition. Current registration, ready to be enjoyed and driven (not sitting parked in a garage). The looks Great and always gets attention when out. It is super fast, lots of torque. Overall a beautiful very clean reliable hot rod. I am very sad to let her go but I must. One thing I can say for sure is the new owner is going to be VERY happy. Please feel free to contact me with questions or to come see the car before bidding. Please leave a message and I will call back. I have the car up for sale locally as well. Thank you (818) 427-2800

Camaro spy shots show subtly different grille, front fascia
Sun, 03 Feb 2013It looks like there some changes in store for the Chevrolet Camaro - the only thing is that we just don't know what Chevy has up its sleeve. Looking at these spy shots, we'd initially be inclined to think that there is just a minor facelift or a new special edition, but upon closer inspection, there are a few oddities about this car that definitely have us intrigued.
The most obvious difference on this prototype is the slightly restyled front fascia with a smaller lower air inlet and the two-bar grille. Then we get to some of the car's mysterious details. For starters, this fascia has the SS vent above the grille, but it looks to be blocked off. Granted this could just be a one-off piece used for testing. What really piqued our interest was at the rear of the car where it has quad exhaust outlets that are used on the ZL1. Could this be the LS7-powered Camaro that we reported on back in December?
At this point, your guess is as good as ours as to what we're looking at here, so let us know in the comments what you think this could be.
Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy Spark EV in Canada, Audi to use Valeo electric supercharger
Mon, Apr 13 2015The Chevrolet Spark EV will become available to retail customers in Canada. "We're expanding our electric vehicle offerings to our customers by offering the 2016 Spark EV for retail sales in the growing EV markets here in Quebec as well as in Ontario and BC," says Chevrolet's Chris Hay. Chevrolet has not yet released pricing for the Spark EV in Canada. In the US, the Spark EV is available in California, Oregon and Maryland. Read more at Hybrid Cars. Four recreational vehicle companies in Texas have settled with the EPA over illegal import and sale of off-road vehicles. The 4,000-plus Hammerhead brand vehicles in question were imported without the proper certification, a violation of the Clean Air Act. Some vehicles lacked proper emission control equipment or were manufactured by a company not listed on the certificate application. The settlement totals $560,000 in civil penalties for the companies involved. Read more from the EPA. The Iowa Supreme Court has upheld the state's natural gas tax, which was challenged by the ethanol industry. Ethanol producers, which use natural gas to make ethanol, argued the complicated tax was unconstitutional, as it forced certain plants to pay more than their competitors. Taxes vary by location, and some plants have to tap into interstate pipelines at much higher tax rates rather than get it from a local utility. Now, ethanol producers will work to change the law. "My hope is that people understand that, something may be constitutional but that doesn't make it good public policy," says Iowa Renewable Fuels Association Executive Director Monte Shaw.

Valeo says Audi will launch a vehicle using its electric supercharger next year, with other reports suggesting that car will be the Audi Q7. The company says other unspecified automakers will also use the technology in their vehicles. While the electric supercharger adds to the vehicle's cost and electric energy use, it can improve fuel economy by as much as 20 percent. Read more at Automotive News Europe.

Plug In 2014: VIA makes the case for 'free' plug-in hybrid work vans, trucks
Fri, Aug 1 2014If you're a fleet manager who's been waiting anxiously for the chance to buy a plug-in hybrid van from Via Motors, your wait is almost over. If you work for the right fleet, anyway. David West, the chief marketing efficer for VIA Motors, took AutoblogGreen for a ride around the San Jose Convention Center in a Via van sporting an Electric Blue paint job as part of the Plug In 2014 Conference this week and gave us an update on how things are coming along. The big news is that the Via PHEV van production is going to start by the end of September. Via can currently build two vans an hour at its production plant in Mexico, or about 16 a day and could easily double that. "That would get us to 20,000 a year with two full lines running," West said. "We have the capacity." "There is no way gas can compete with electric." – David West, Via Motors But they can't sell that many quite yet. By the end of December, around 350 Vans will be made, mostly for a $20-million program from the Department of Energy (DOE) and the South Coast Air Quality Management District that will see the vehicles used by fleets that will report energy data to the Idaho National Lab. Via is also finishing up CARB certification for both the van and the company's plug-in hybrid pick-up truck. About 50 percent of Via's technology in the truck will not need to be tested again, since it's the same as what's in the van, but things like crash tests will need to be done twice. Despite the progress, this is not where Via hoped it would be today. The bankruptcy of battery supplier A123, "took about a year off our timeline," West said. "It's been getting a little slow getting it to market, there have been some challenges, particuarly since we had the country's worst recession right in the middle of this wrap up, but it's inevitable in my mind. There is no way gas can compete with electric." Maybe that's why FedEx has expressed an interest in buying around 5,000 units, West said. FedEx already has some pilot vehicles, just like Verizon does, and PG&E wants to replace all of their gas trucks with electric vehicles, which would be another 3,000 sales, he said. Besides the fuel savings, vehicles like these, with easy on-site power generation, could also work wonders in post-disaster situations, he said, since they could replace the need for generators.
