1964 El Camino on 2040-cars
Kingston, Tennessee, United States
|
This is a freshly restored '64 El Camino. It has a few items that I have not bought for it yet, but they are all readily available and not terribly expensive. The are the "Chevrolet" emblems on the hood and tailgate, the hood spear, a radio, license plate lights, and door lock knobs.
I did an extensive restoration on this car. I did not remove the body from the frame ( it just didn't need it), but everything else has been completely restored, replaced, or rebuilt. All surfaces underneath vehicle and inside body panels have been coated with POR 15. I'll try to list some of the new parts: quarter panels, floor pans, front and rear bumpers, complete grill kit, most emblems, exterior door handles, exterior mirrors, all locks, gas tank, drive shaft, complete dual exhaust system, aluminum radiator and electric fan, front power disc brake conversion, brake master cylinder, brake proportioning valve, wheels, tires, all new interior including seat foam, seat covers, door panels carpet, headliner,glove box liner, instrument bezel, all new instruments, shifter, steering wheel (it comes with the original restored steering wheel as well), all new rubber seals and weatherstripping. The engine and transmission have just been completely rebuilt. Transmission is a 350 turbo and engine is a 350. Some of the features of the engine rebuild are: it has the original 327 double hump heads. Flat top pistons, oem camshaft, edelbrock aluminum intake, Holley650 dual line carb, ceramic coated headers, roller rocker arms, and nice aluminum finned valve covers. The car has power steering and brakes and drives like new. It really drives wonderfully. The paint is new and very nice. The wheels are made by Newstalgia and the are 17" on front and 18" on rear. I help with shipping/delivery, but the buyer is responsible for all shipping costs. |

Junkyard Gem: 1980 Chevrolet LUV Mikado
Sat, Oct 9 2021During the 1970s and into the 1980s, each member of the Detroit Big Three imported Japanese small pickups and sold them with Ford (Mazda Proceed), Dodge/Plymouth (Mitsubishi Forte), or Chevrolet (Isuzu Faster) badges here. Ford developed the Ranger and killed the Courier for 1983 (though Americans could still buy the Mazda-badged version all the way through 1993), while The General axed the LUV after the S-10 debuted in the 1982 model year. Isuzu sold the same truck as the P'up through 1987, though, and we might as well follow up our recent P'up Junkyard Gem with its LUV predecessor. LUV stood for Light Utility Vehicle, and I've managed to spot a handful in the boneyards over the years. This one now resides in a yard in northeastern Colorado. The Mikado trim package included striped seat upholstery and a sporty steering wheel, plus these cool dash badges. As far as I can tell, no LUV Mikado advertising featured any Gilbert and Sullivan tunes. This one is fairly rusty for Front Range Colorado, and it has endured a bed swap from some other small truck. The engine is the 75-horse Isuzu 1.8-liter. Members of this engine family went into everything from Chevy Chevettes to Isuzu Troopers in the United States. Very unusually for a small pickup during the Malaise Era, this one has a luxurious automatic transmission. Acceleration must have been a leisurely affair in this truck. Air conditioning? Unheard of! Someone stuck every one of their lunchtime apple stickers on the driver's door. After 41 years of work, this truck is done. Come on strong in a LUV of your own!
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
2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers

Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
