Numbers Matching 360hp 4-speed Chevelle El Camino Clean on 2040-cars
Muncie, Indiana, United States
Rare RPO, Kansas City built 1966 El Camino with a VIN matching EF 396-360hp, VIN matching Muncie M-20 4-speed and a code CF 12
bolt 3.31 ratio positraction rear. The original 396 was rebuilt less than 5000 miles ago
with .030” over forged TRW pistons, Competition Cams 292H camshaft kit and reconditioned connecting rods with hardened bolts,
the original forged crankshaft needed nothing, was polished and left
std-std. The cylinder heads received hardened valve seats, 2.19 and 1.88 stainless valves and new bronze
guides. An Edelbrock Performer RPM intake was installed in place of
the original GM Holley cast iron intake (included) with a new Holley
4777 650 Double Pumper carburetor. For the ignition, a Pertronix unit replaces the breaker points and for the exhaust, the original
cast manifolds were put in a box (also included) and a set of custom Mickey
Thompson Super Scavenger headers were installed.
During the engine rebuild, the original Muncie M-20 transmission was rebuilt with new bearings, new brass syncros, a reverse idler and a new HD clutch riding on a resurfaced flywheel. The original GM shifter was also rebuilt and re-bushed, it shifts like new. The original CF code 12 bolt, 3.31 positraction rear differential was also reconditioned with new bearings, seals and
gaskets. The front suspension and brake systems were also rebuilt at
this time, it drives like new. Even though it's and older restoration, the body, paint and chrome on this car are still in excellent condition, it's been wet once in past 20 years, sitting at a car show. The 762 black bucket interior is in excellent condition and has center console with clock and the original and working AM/FM
radio. The original tachometer stopped working at one point so a Sun Super Tach was placed in the factory location, it fits perfectly. The original 5600rpm redline tachometer and an extra console clock are also included with car. This El Camino is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end auction at any time, thanks for looking and happy bidding!

Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1
Mon, 13 Jan 2014
The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
The Opel GT is the concept General Motors should build for the US
Sat, Feb 27 2016Now is the time. General Motors should double-down on performance cars and build the Opel GT concept that's set to debut next week at the Geneva Motor Show. Better yet, sell it in the United States as the Chevy GT. Consumers are showing a thirst for performance cars not seen in decades. Ford has them coming in waves, with everything from the F-150 Raptor to a hotted-up Fusion. FCA US is unrepentantly building loads of Hellcats. GM should respond. The General's cupboard is hardly bare. With the Corvette, Camaro, and Cadillac's V-Series, GM has more than enough to compete with its crosstown rivals and anything Europe or Japan can throw at it. But there's also an opportunity. There's not many front-mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive, two-seat sports cars out there like the Opel GT concept. A Chevy GT that used that layout and captured some of the concept car's proportions and curves would ignite a different kind of passion in enthusiasts. It would be Miata-like. With Chevy branding, this sports car would be the everyday exotic. The concept has a turbocharged 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine, which makes about 143 horsepower to motivate a structure that weighs less than 2,200 pounds. It can hit 60 miles per hour in less than eight seconds. All of those numbers are within the front-engined Miata's territory. This new Opel is inspired by two great mid-1960s concepts that helped put its design studio, and that of its sister brand, the British Vauxhall, on the map. (The GT concept is also technically a Vauxhall, as the brands are linked in GM's European strategy.) One of them, the '66 Vauxhall XVR remained a concept. The '65 Opel Experimental GT was on the road by 1968. That shows this is doable. There's precedent. The Saturn Sky and Pontiac Solstice shared a chassis with a modern GT during that trio's brief run. If GM ever makes this concept, Opel and Vauxhall should get their versions. But Chevy is the one that could make this car a global icon. Chevrolet GT. Make it happen. News & Analysis News: The potential return of the Ford Bronco is generating a ton of attention. Analysis: That's not news, per se. But when the Bronco6G.com fan site did a rendering of a next-generation Bronco, it almost broke the Internet. Everyone from Automotive News to Jalopnik picked up the illustrations. Our own post has drawn a lot of traffic and passionate responses. People are clamoring for the Bronco's return.
Fewer than 1 in 3 Chevy dealers earn right to initially sell C7 Corvette
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Looking to make the launch of the 2014 Corvette Stingray as efficient as possible, Chevrolet will be limiting the numbers of its dealers that can sell the all-new coupe and convertible. According to Automotive News, sales of the C7 Corvette will initially be limited to less than a third of Chevy's total dealership network when the 'Vette goes on sale this summer.
Only 900 dealers out of more than 3,000 locations nationwide will be allowed to sell the new Corvette at first, and the reason for this is so that there are no shortages at dealers that can actually get the cars sold. The article says that the 900 dealerships chosen represented 80 percent of total Corvette sales in 2012.
Some of the requirements dealers had to make to get initial allocation of Stingray sales include having sold at least four Corvettes in 2012 and having a Corvette Stingray specialist who will be required to have gone through a training session costing more than $2,000 per attendee. Once demand for the 2014 Corvette Stingray begins to subside - approximately six to nine months after it goes on sale - then allocation could open up to more dealers, but the report indicates this could happen following the 2014 model year.
