I am selling the absolutely most beautiful El Camino SS 454 you will ever find. It is one stunning package!!
She has been meticulously rebuilt and maintained.
First, the paint and interior is virtually flawless. Documented restoration by the previous owner. There is very little mechanically that has not been rebuilt or replaced on this beauty! Starting with the body, it was totally stripped and painted with black lacquer paint and a urethane clear coat. The vinyl top and windshield were replaced, along with all of the trim and re-chromed bumpers. The bed has all new trim, along with the bed rail posted being re-chromed.
Interior has new carpet, head liner, door panels and handles, seat foam and seat covers, dash, visors have been recovered and dash detailed. She even has the original jack, spare tire, and mounts!
The under carriage had a frame off sand blast and was repainted with the correct paint. The body was put back on new body bushings, springs and shocks painted the proper color. The front end is totally new with all Moog parts, along with all A-arm and 4-link urethane bushings. (The front end does not have the first shim in it.) The front brake rotors, bearings, pads, master cylinder and combination valve are new. The rear brake cylinders have been re-built with new pads added and silicone brake fluid used due to it being less corrosive. The vacuum booster has been re-plated to original color. All of the rubber stops, bumpers, door & window seals, door hinge bushings, mirror gaskets and outer door handles have been replaced. (The doors close like a new car!)
The engine has very few miles on it since total rebuild. The re-build consists of bored .030 over TRW forged pistons, stock rods with Arp bolts on a steel crank, larger push rods and guide plates, Comp Cams roller rocker arms, Lunati 500 lift hydraulic cam, MSD billet electronic ignition system with blaster coil and 8mm wire (the only aftermarket parts and a good upgrades considering todays fuels). The heads were re-built with all new springs, retainers and guides. The transmission has not had to be touched except for being cleaned and all new seals. New flow master exhaust system. Period correct wheels and tires.
Mechanically speaking this beauty is as near perfect as you can get. I also have the original build sheet that was located under the seat. Along with the build sheet, I have DVD copies of every receipt during the restoration. Complete manuals and parts guides for 1971 El Camino

Opel's own ad shows Ampera-e beating Opels in drag race
Thu, Sep 8 2016The Opel Ampera-e isn't expected to set any world records on a quarter-mile drag strip. But when it comes to crossing a major boulevard, though, the European version of the Chevrolet Bolt electric vehicle will more than hold its own, potentially scaring inattentive pedestrians everywhere. According to a 35-second video posted by General Motors' Opel division, at least. Opel set up the Ampera-e against four other small-and-sporty vehicles, including racing versions of the Opel Adam and Opel Astra as well as stock versions of the Opel Insignia and Corsa (what, you expected a Corvette to be in there?). With the EV's off-the-line torque as a selling point, Opel showed the Ampera-e beating the other vehicles in a 30-meter (100-foot) drag race. Of course, the video also shows the EV getting passed by some of the others soon after, but the point was made. Opel doubled down by adding the tagline "Fun to Drive" at the end of the video. While Opel hasn't revealed the single-charge range of the Ampera-e, it should be roughly the same as the Chevrolet Bolt, which will be about 200 miles. In addition, the Ampera-e, like the Bolt in the US, will get 200 horsepower from its electric motor, and will be able to go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in less than seven seconds. The Ampera-e will debut at the 2016 Paris Motor Show later this month. General Motors said in February that Europe would get the Ampera-e by next year. Opel had previously used the Ampera name with the Euro version of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in.

Corvette Z06 and Viper TA square off at the strip
Wed, Jan 21 2015There are many long-standing grudge matches among automobiles: 911 vs GT-R, Mustang vs Camaro, Ferrari vs Lamborghini... but as far as high-end American metal goes, it doesn't get much more legendary than Viper vs 'Vette. So after Chevy released the new Corvette Z06, we knew it was only a matter of time before it would have to square off against the Viper TA. And what better place to pit these two parallel pillars of American performance than on the drag strip? Fortunately that's just what we have here. In one corner, the 2014 Dodge Viper TA, with its 8.4-liter V10 pumping out 640 horsepower and 600 pound-feet of torque. In the other, the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06, the supercharger on its 6.2-liter V8 more than making up for the discrepancy in displacement and cylinder count to produce 650 hp and just as much torque. But numbers don't tell the whole story, so watch the video clip to see which reaches the end of the quarter-mile first.

The Volt Dance had precedent; meet the Chevy Footlockers
Sun, Dec 14 2014Marketing in the auto industry can get weird sometimes – really quite bizarre, in fact. For example, remember the Chevy Volt dance from the 2009 Los Angles Auto Show? If not, a group boogied to a song about the electric car, and it was every bit as awkward (and hilarious) as that sounds. In fact, that innocent bit of promotion lives in infamy, as some pundits grabbed hold of it during General Motors' bailout and asked why America's tax dollars were going to such things. The Chicago Auto Show has been digging through its vault of vintage videos, and it has come up with something that might actually be worse than that Volt-themed routine. They're called the Chevy Footlockers, and they're a dance troupe somehow promoting the Cavalier at the 1988 Chicago show. The connection between the car and their routine is unclear, but it's gloriously cheesy in a Chippendales-meets-AC Slater sort of way. Also, there are props towards the end, but we aren't going to spoil them for you, because you just have to watch for yourself. As a bonus, there's another (brief) clip below showing a female dance group with the Geo Tracker at the '91 Chicago show, and they sing, too. Scroll down to watch both of these oddities.
