I have a fully restored, better than new 1965 el Camino that I hate to sell, but I have bills that need to be paid .What we have here is a very nice sleeper /cruiser /cross country driver. This beauty can idle all day in traffic and never get hot, cruise at any speed on the highway at a low rpm 70mph@ 2200 rpm . BUT WHEN YOU WANT TO PLAY JUST PRESS DOWN THE PEDAL AND HANG ON. This beauty will light the tires up in any gear on command, or you can use her as a daily commuter. Now to the details, with the body removed, the frame has been completely stripped and repainted, all the springs front and rear have been replaced with a sport suspension handling package including sway bars, KYB shocks on all 4 corners, all the control arm bushings and ball joints and other front suspension parts were supplied by Original Parts Group. The brake system was supplied by SSBC with power disc front brakes, and rear drum brakes, all the brake lines and fuel lines are brand new and stainless steel, the fuel tank is also new. The engine is a GM Performance 383 crate motor, the transmission is a TCI Performance turbo 350 package. The engine has a GM tune port injection system, with a new wiring harness and new injectors & programed ECM (has OBD diagnostic connector under dash). This engine also has a Paxton supercharger system made for the tune port injection system and it runs fantastic. The supercharger only boost high when under heavy load, boost 5-7lb at full boost, 1-3lb normal driving. Very quiet system, you would never know it's there, unless you see it. The car has; power steering and power brakes, a serpentine belt system, 4core radiator and duel electric fans, has full-length headers, and a complete Flowmaster 2.5" exhaust system. The interior is completely new; new seat and door panels, new headliner, new dash pad, new visors, new carpet, and the complete interior has been dyno matted. Has a Ididit tilt steering column, new Painless wiring harness, has Dakota digital gauges, custom Autosound stereo system (STOCK LOOK), all new door seals and window felts. There is hardly any road noise on the inside. Has a new paint job that looks great, the paint is a gun metal gray. The body lines all line up nice and the gaps are even, most of the stainless is original and original bed rails & bumpers. The grill and front trim is aftermarket (Original Parts Group). All the doors open & shut like new , so does the tail gate, the bed has been rino-lined, no rust. It also has a custom made bed cover. The paint has been cut and buffed so it real shines. Overall this a very nice car. I'm sure I have left out a ton of details, thanks for looking & good luck if you're biding. Don't let this one get away if you've been searching for a gem! - Glen |

The biggest gas-guzzlers of 2024: 'The Meanest List' is the opposite of greenest cars
Thu, Mar 14 2024In some circles — especially some automotive circles — bigger is better. This explains the Hummer, for example. In its so-called “Meanest List” of a dozen models, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) makes no apologies for berating “the worst-performing mass market automobiles” sold in 2024 in the U.S. The most diminutive car on the list is a Chevy Corvette Z06. At the top of this particular heap is the Mercedes-Benz AMG G63, a gas-powered SUV that the environmental agency says was “the worst-performing vehicle of the more than 1,200 models assessed by Greener Cars and has an annual fuel cost over $4,000.” Not to mention its MSRP of around $184,000. Rank Make & Model Powertrain Green Score MSRP Estimated Annual Fuel Cost* 1 Mercedes-Benz AMG G63 Gas 20 $184,000 $4,242 2 Ram 1500 TRX 4x4 Gas 22 $98,335 $3,819 3 Ford F150 Raptor R Gas 24 $79,975 $3,777 4 Cadillac Escalade V Gas 26 $152,295 $3,388 5 Dodge Durango SRT Gas 26 $74,995 $3,332 6 Jeep Wrangler 4dr 4X4 Gas 27 $35,895 $3,260 7 Jeep Grand Wagoneer 4x4 Gas 28 $91,945 $3,058 8 Mercedes-Benz G550 Gas 28 $143,000 $3,186 9 GMC Hummer EV SUV EV 29 $98,845 $1,746 10 GMC Sierra Gas 29 $37,700 $3,069 11 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Gas 30 $114,395 $3,169 12 Mercedes-Benz Maybach S680 Gas 30 $234,300 $3,031 *ACEEE analysis using EIA data of the annual cost of driving 15,000 miles In terms of numbers, the dirty dozen of the meanest includes seven SUVs and three trucks. Lonely at the middle of the list is the sole electric, the GMC Hummer EV, which weighs in at 9,000 pounds. The council notes that “though EVs have lower emissions than similarly sized gasoline models, the Hummer demonstrates that size and efficiency, not just fuel source, are important factors in a carÂ’s environmental impact.” ItÂ’s also worth reminding prospective buyers that the average fuel cost of a vehicle on the “Greenest List” eats up only a fifth of the fuel cost of a vehicle on the Meanest List, “showing that greener options can also be more affordable.” The ACEEE also put out a "Greener List" of efficient gasoline and hybrid cars that don't require plugging in. By the Numbers Green Cadillac Chevrolet Dodge Ford GMC Hummer Jeep Maybach Mercedes-Benz RAM Emissions Fuel Efficiency Green Automakers Truck SUV Electric Hybrid
Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.
