Being a true California original, there is no rust issues to deal with whatsoever. 1968 El Camino still retains all of its original sheet metal as well. The floors, frame, quarter (bed) panels, doors, fenders, upper-lower cowl and firewall are all intact and rust free as it rolled of the assembly line in 1968.

This one is in excellent condition! This 1968 El Camino comes with a just plain nasty 383 cubic inch Chevy stroker engine. It is a full roller engine with a very impressive list of components. Down below spins a Scat crankshaft, Eagle Connecting rods, Ross pistons all tied together with A.R.P bolts. Inside side is a Crane cam with a full roller valve train. Chevy ported and polished cylinder heads fed by an Edelbrock tunnel ram intake topped off by a pair of Holley 450 carburetors. A shotgun style ram air scoop on top just looks mean! The engine starts with a new summit high torque starter and a new battery. Cooling is performed by a new 4 core aluminum cross-flow radiator and a huge electric fan. Summit fuel line system and fuel pump and fuel pressure gauge really looks fantastic. This 1968 El Camino comes with a Chevy turbo hydramatic 350 transmission with a B&M shift kit and a 2800 rpm stall speed converter. Both the engine and transmission were assembled early 2012 and perform flawlessly. The rearend is the stock 10 bolt unit original to the car. This 1968 El Camino was ordered from the factory with power brakes, power steering and air conditioning.

Even the key buzzer and cigarette lighter still function. This 1968 El Camino has one of the best sound systems that I have ever heard installed in a vehicle. It is truly amazing to hear and feel!

Smaller Cars Endure Big Problems On Crash Test

Wed, Jan 22 2014

In a crash test of 11 of the smallest cars on the market, only one vehicle received an acceptable rating. The rest received marginal or poor ratings in the study, providing evidence that supports a widely held notion that smaller cars are among the least safe on the road. No other vehicle group has performed as poorly on a new crash test than these mini cars, says the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the nonprofit group that conducted the testing. The latest results of which were released Wednesday. The Chevrolet Spark was the only car earning an overall "acceptable" rating on the small-front overlap test, and even that vehicle had its shortcomings, IIHS said. "Small lightweight vehicles have an inherent safety disadvantage," said Joe Nolan, the senior vice president for vehicle research at IIHS. "That's why it's even more important to choose one with the best occupant protection. Unfortunately, as a group, minicars aren't performing as well as other vehicle categories." The Mazda2, Kia Rio, Toyota Yaris and certain Ford Fiesta models all received "marginal" overall grades on the test, while the Mitsubishi Mirage, Nissan Versa, Toyota Prius C, Hyundai Accent, Fiat 500 and Honda Fit all earned "poor" ratings. Results from these sub-compact cars fare much worse than vehicles sized just a little bit bigger, IIHS said. Among 17 cars evaluated in the small category, five earned "good" ratings and five more earned "acceptable." Only introduced a year ago, the small-front overlap test has quickly become a key indicator of differences in automotive safety. IIHS introduced it as a way to replicate what happens when the front corner of a vehicle collides with a tree or utility pole at 40 miles per hour. In the real world, these sorts of accidents are more dangerous than others, in part because they bypass the front-end crush zones on most cars.

Without a grade of acceptable or better, they cannot qualify for the IIHS' overall Top Safety Pick+ honor, given annually to the safest models on the market.

Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs

Sun, 01 Dec 2013



The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.

GM to restore legendary Corvette damaged in sinkhole accident

Fri, Dec 5 2014

Car lover's hearts' sank when they saw images of bent and destroyed classic Corvettes at the bottom of a sinkhole last February after the floor of the National Corvette Museum gave way. General Motors announced Wednesday it would restore the one millionth Corvette ever produced to its former glory. The 1992 convertible was heavily damaged when a 40-foot deep sinkhole opened beneath a bevy of rare cars at the National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Kentucky. Since then, GM has been slowly restoring the classic cars, though five of the eight that caught in the sinkhole were determined to be too damaged to repair. This November, the 2009 Corvette ZR1 Blue Devil was the first car to be returned in mint condition to the Museum, according to Autoblog. It suffered significant damage but was still drivable after being pulled out of the debris. The one millionth Corvette is still in bad shape. The automaker is estimating six months worth of work to restore the car, which sustained paint scratches, rear-suspension damage and a mangled front fender.
