1978 El Camino on 2040-cars
Las Cruces, New Mexico, United States
|
After I lost my job I had to return home and am now forced to sell my cool machine. I really do not want to let her go but I must make some sacrifices so I can pay the rest of my way through school Up for auction is my college dream car, My El Camino. I bought this car as a freshman in college and then began to fix her up. I have had the clutche pack and transmission rebuilt by a local mechanic. The Engine has been professionally reworked it has been bored, ballanced and blueprinted. This Car is Fast. The engine work was done so well that this car makes good power above RPM levels of your average chevy engine. I Paid top dollar to get quality parts into the engine and you can tell it was worth it. On the rebuild I drove the car around 20,000 miles or so (only to school and back) then got a job and had to put the car in storage. In storage it has sat for several years while I was working up north. Recently I have found myself in need of money and have unlocked the storage, put a new battery in it, changed the oil, and added water and it fired right up. I ran it for a while, the oil pressure was still strong and coolant system still functional. The car runs really strong and has a very agressive unique sound. I love this type of vehicle because you get a truck with the performance of a true muscle car. The tires still hold air and car has been stored in doors. They are a little dry and may need to be replaced soon. Please note, The wheels that are with the car are the ones shown in the last picture. The interior is clean and dark blue. The bed of the truck has a spray liner and the valuable chrome lining is all there. The paint was professionally done and is in near mint condition with the exception of a small dent on the rear tailgate (hardly noticable in in the pic and in person) Any questions please feell free to ask Good Luck and Happy Bidding |

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel destined for Chicago debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
GM files to trademark name Badlands
Mon, Feb 23 2015If you've been hoping for General Motors to come out swinging at the Ford F-150 Raptor, we've had some tantalizing news for you of late. Last month we brought you a report that indicated GM has trademarked the name "Z71 Trail Boss," suggesting a potential hardcore off-roader. Now it seems the General has filed for a potentially even better name. That name, as our friends over at GM Authority have discovered, is "Badlands." The application, filed on February 16, indicates that it's for a truck, but of course it doesn't specify just what form it would take... or for that matter, under which division it would fall. So we could, in theory, be looking at the nameplate for a Raptor rival from Chevy or GMC (like the 2011 Sierra All Terrain HD concept pictured here), or for some other trim level, a concept truck, a special edition... just about anything. Heck, it could be for a Vauxhall, Opel or Holden for all we know at this point. Or GM could choose not to use it on anything at all, but here's hoping it'll emerge as something awesome in US showrooms sometime soon.

Question of the Day: What's the most irritating car name?
Wed, Mar 9 2016You hear a lot about how the Chevrolet Nova was a sales flop in Mexico because "No va" means "it doesn't go" in Spanish; in fact, the Nova sold pretty well south of the border, and in any case most Spanish-speakers know that "Nova" means "new" in Latin and Portuguese. However, General Motors doesn't deserve to be let off the hook for bad car names, because the Oldsmobile Achieva— no doubt inspired by the excruciating "coffee achievers" ads of the 1980s— scrapes the biggest fingernails down the screechiest chalkboard in the US-market car-name world. That is, unless you think Daihatsu's incomprehensible choice of Charade was worse. Meanwhile, Japanese car buyers could get machines with cool names like Mazda Bongo Friendee or Honda Life Dunk. It's just not fair! So, what car name drives you the craziest? Related Video: Auto News Design/Style Chevrolet Honda Mazda Daihatsu Automotive History questions car names
