Up for sale is one 1968 El Camino, a true american classic. An icon of American muscle car history. This 1968 El Camino is an original California car and still retains the original California black plates, they are both in great shape. 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 1968 El Camino has one of the cleanest original beds that you will find. Many of these were actually used for hauling loads and really show the effects of such use. 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. The ac unit has been removed from the car. Entire interior of this car is brand new. Seats are by Procar, 5 point harnesses are by RCI and G-force. Equipped with AutoMeter gauges and a B&M shifter as well. Comes with a nice chrome fire extinguisher as seen in the pictures. This 1968 El Camino is very street-able. Starts instantly and is just a thrill to drive. Despite its looks, the engine idles fine thanks to the stall speed converter. All lights and wiring are working and in good order. 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! Alpine head unit, 3- 10" Zeus subwoofers and twin amps all tucked away in a custom enclosure behind the seat. This 1968 El Camino rolls on polished Weld wheels and new BF Goodrich tires. Has Yokohama's in the front. Turns heads everywhere it goes! Please bid with confidence as we have a 100% feedback rating and we here at AMCR intend to keep it that way.

Opel's own ad shows Ampera-e beating Opels in drag race

Thu, Sep 8 2016

The 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.

GM recalls Cadillac ATS and Chevy Impala for separate issues

Fri, Feb 27 2015

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration added two recalls from General Motors in the government organization's daily update of safety campaigns. Both were for failing to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards but for completely separate reasons. The larger recall covers 58,698 units of the 2013-2015 Cadillac ATS, but it doesn't really carry huge safety concerns. In vehicles produced between April 25, 2012, and February 9, 2015, the controls for the tilt and slide of the moonroof are not recessed enough, as required by federal law. According to NHTSA, it's possible that someone could inadvertently activate the auto-close for the roof panel, which the agency claims increases "the risk of personal injury." Dealers will install a new trim plate that will add the necessary clearance. The other campaign covers 1,177 examples of the 2014 Chevrolet Impala from between November 15, 2012, and May 27, 2014. However, this is actually a repeat of a previous recall on the Chevy and the Cadillac XTS from 2014. The affected Impalas here "were remedied incorrectly" under the earlier campaign, according to NHTSA. On these sedans, it's possible the electronic parking brake might not fully disengage and still remain in some contact with the rotor, which is in violation of federal rules. The fault can cause excessive heat from the brakes that could potentially lead to a fire, according to NHTSA. To fix the problem, dealers will reprogram the electronic parking brake control module.

In the affected vehicles, the power-operated roof panels auto-close when the non-recessed "Slide" or "Tilt" switches are pressed. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) No.

Two More Recalls Push GM Total To 4.8 Million In A Month

Mon, Mar 31 2014

General Motors announced two more recalls late Friday, bringing to 4.8 million the number of cars, trucks and SUVs the automaker has called back for repairs in the past month. The string of recalls, topped by an ignition switch problem in compact cars now linked to 13 crash deaths, has embarrassed the company and sidetracked its new CEO, who started work just over two months ago. GM has admitted knowing about the switch problem a decade ago, yet it didn't recall any cars until February. The recall delay has brought two congressional investigations and probes by the Justice Department and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Late Friday night, GM announced it would recall 490,000 late-model pickup trucks and SUVs because transmission oil cooling lines weren't secured properly in their fittings. Transmission oil can leak from a fitting and hit hot surfaces, causing fires, the company said in a statement. GM said it knows of three fires and no injuries. The recall affects Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 pickup trucks from the 2014 model year, as well as 2015 Chevrolet Suburban and Tahoe SUVs and the GMC Yukon and Yukon XL SUVs. All have six-speed automatic transmissions. The Silverado is GM's top-selling vehicle and an important profit center for the company. The GMC Sierra also is among GM's top sellers. Dealers will inspect the transmission oil cooling line fittings and make sure they're securely seated, at no cost to owners. Also Friday night, GM announced the recall of 172,000 Chevrolet Cruze compact cars because the right front axle shaft can fracture and separate while being driven. The recall affects cars from the 2013 and 2014 model years equipped with 1.4-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engines. If a shaft fractures, the wheels would lose power without warning and the cars would coast to a stop. GM says it has warranty reports of several dozen shaft fractures. It is not aware of any crashes or injuries. Dealers will replace the shafts free of charge. The recall allows dealers to resume selling affected Cruzes. GM issued a stop sale order on the cars Thursday night. The recall also covers about 2,500 replacement shafts used to fix manual transmission Cruzes that were recalled last September. In all, GM has recalled 4.8 million vehicles since last month, two million more than the company sold last year in the U.S.
