1972 El Camino Custom No Reserve!!! on 2040-cars

For sale is a 1972 Chevrolet El Camino Custom. It runs and drives/breaks great, and I’ve gone through periods where I used it as a primary means of transportation. It sure is an attention getter—I can’t even go to the grocery store or gym without several people standing around it as I go to leave, asking questions, etc. I’ll miss it deeply for that reason alone.

The pics were taken outside, but it has been garage kept since day 1.

It’s not perfect. The belt sometimes squeals on start up, but it starts right up, runs and drives great. It’s got a few scratches, cracks, rust, dings etc. but nothing big or very noticeable. The dash seems to be missing some fasteners where the gauge cluster attaches. All the gauges work except for the oil lamp. No A/C or radio installed. While the headlights/taillights and blinkers work perfectly, the lights in the dash (blinker indicators, bulbs that illuminate the gauges at night, etc.) work but not consistently. The previous owner had pulled the A/C control panel out for some reason—I suppose to replace it (as you can see it sits on the column in the pictures above).

Headliner’s in great shape. One of the seats is in great shape while the other isn’t—thus I put the seat covers on both. It has the SS style dash (round gauges) and floor shifter (Hurst V-Matic 2) which I love. Windshield wipers work.

Wheels are in good shape. Lots of work done (on the suspension specifically) which I’ve attached pictures of the receipts to account for.

Model: L48, 350 CID, 4-bbl

Engine: 350 4 bolt main—casting # 3970014.

Engine ID Code: V0319TJA; Flint, MI Assembly

Vin 1D80J2B568266; Baltimore, MD Assembly

Rear Axle: CKD 0507B2, 2.73:1 – 12 Bolt (L48/350-4); Buffalo, NY Assembly

Never had access to a lift in order to identify the transmission type as the only way I know to do that is via the pan shape.

Chevy Crossvolt name kept alive in new trademark application

Fri, Dec 26 2014

In April 2011 General Motors submitted a trademark application with the US Patent and Trademark Office for the word "Crossvolt." In November of this year, the application expired for lack of a statement of use. But in August of this year, GM applied again for the same trademark, leading some to believe that it intends to apply the name to a vehicle. That vehicle could explain the mule in sliced-and-diced Chevrolet Orlando bodywork caught in several spy shots this year, theorized to be some kind of Toyota Prius V or Ford C-Max Hybrid competitor; or it could be a production version of the Chevrolet Volt MP5 concept showed off at the Beijing Motor Show in 2010, which was about the same size as the Chevy Orlando. Or it could be none of those things – but the fact that Chevrolet is keeping it current makes us believe it will be... something.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.
