Up for auction is my 1965 Chevrolet El Camino

-Rare original 327 V-8 and 2-speed Auto.

-Original Harrison Radiator

-Power steering and Power brakes.

-Crager S/S wheels with Brand new BFG T/A Tires 215/70R14 front 225/70R14 rear.

Brand New Parts Installed this month: KYB Shocks front and rear, Bell Tech springs front and rear, Upper control arm bushings, sway bar bushings and linkage, Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, Edelbrock Perfromer series 600cfm Carb. w/electric choke, Fuel sending unit, Fuel pump, Fuel lines, Battery cables, Autolite spark plugs, Moroso plug wires, Cap And Rotor, Power barke booster, and Flow master exhaust. Included with the purchase of this car is a new Flow Master American Thunder dual Exhaust System that needs to be installed. The cost in parts and tires alone is over $2,600 

Car is almost all original with the exception of some parts I changed to make it a better and a more reliable daily driver. I did however keep some of the original parts. These will come with the car: carburetor, intake manifold, and air filter ass.

This car is a great daily driver that runs and drives very smooth, sounds and looks great. In my opinion the paint is a 6 out of 10 and there is two small rust bubbles. One bubble is by the fuel door and the other is above the rear fender. All the chrome is in excellent condition, no dents or pits. The dash is not cut up and the original radio is intact. The glove box is even still there. The interior seats, carpet, and headliner are in excellent condition, obviously not original. The bed has a rolled in liner that looks great and was done properly. The Brakes have over 50% pad left on the shoes and they work great. As far as I can tell after having the car on a lift there has never been any real accident damage. The frame and suspension is in excellent condition and no heavy rust.

I feel this car would make a great candidate to be fully restored if you are wanting a complete original 327 El Camino. Or this car can continue as a great daily driver as is and will be fun to drive and tinker with for someone who just wants a cool car from the 60’s.

Top Gear names BMW i8 Car of the Year, Corvette, Ferrari, Mercedes also win big

Fri, Dec 5 2014

The lads at Top Gear have released their listing of the finest cars of the past year, handing the ultimate honor to BMW's revolutionary i8 plug-in-hybrid supercar. "The i8 is a milestone in the annals of automotive history and a glorious statement for an exciting and positive future. The i8 delivers - and then some," the British mag wrote. The i8, though, was far from the only hybridized car to take victories. James May and Richard Hammond both highlighted hybrids as their personal cars of the year, with May saluting the Ferrari LaFerrari and the Hamster, unsurprisingly, heaping praise on the Porsche 918 Spyder. Jeremy Clarkson, meanwhile, opted to shock many by selecting not only an American car as his best of 2014, but giving the honor to of all things, a Corvette. Clarkson wasn't the only person to honor the USA's iconic sports car, with the new, 650-horsepower Z06 variant being named TG's Muscle Car of the Year. Other big winners include Mercedes-Benz, which TG honored for S-Class Coupe (Luxury Car of the Year), the new AMG GT (Sports Car of the Year) and the not-for-US C-Class Estate (Family Car of the Year). The 458 Italia Speciale A snagged a second win for Ferrari. The best of the rest include the Citroen C4 Cactus, Renault Twingo, Volkswagen Golf R, Lamborghini Huracan and Audi TT. Take a look below for the celebratory press blast from BMW. The BMW i8 wins Top Gear Car of the Year The BMW i8 has been named as Top Gear magazine's global Car of the Year 2014. The plug-in hybrid performance vehicle beat off some stiff competition from a host of other premium and luxury manufacturers to win the overall award. The editorial team of Top Gear commended the BMW i8 for its breadth of abilities. Its 1.5-litre three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine combined with an electric motor gives searing acceleration and driver enjoyment but all wrapped in a package that takes BMW's EfficientDynamics philosophy to the extreme courtesy of CO2 emissions less than 49g/km and a 135mpg combined cycle figure. Charlie Turner, Editor in Chief at Top Gear magazine, said: "The BMW is a milestone in the annals of automotive history and a glorious statement for an exciting and positive future. The i8 delivers – and then some. It's the kind of car we should celebrate, a beautiful vision of the future, delivered now.

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers

Fri, 11 Apr 2014



Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?

GM to trim Russian output, raise prices amid currency woes

Thu, Feb 5 2015

General Motors is shutting down its factory in Russia's second largest city, St. Petersburg, from the middle of March until the middle of May as the country's currency, the ruble, continues to give economists fits. The ruble's value has plunged due not only to western sanctions, but a precipitous fall in oil prices. We knew these factors were already impacting the auto industry there, as Ford reported in its 2014 earnings statement, and now they're forcing GM to cut production at the factory, shown above, that is responsible for production of the Chevrolet Cruze and Opel Astra. Meanwhile, Automotive News is citing Russian outlet Kommersant as saying that GM has hiked its prices in the country by an average of 20 percent over the past two months. While a GM spokesman confirmed the St. Petersburg plant would be shut down for the two-month span reported by Kommersant and AN, he would not confirm the price increase.
