1965 Chevelle/el Camino One Of A Kind 2 Owner Very Special Car Garaged on 2040-cars
Burbank, California, United States
|
No Reserve The highest bidder owns this El Camino. I bought this car off the original owner in factory original condition 1994. I restored it, showed it, drove it and garaged it over years, the last picture of the car was taken on our drive way in 1995. I have a file full of receipts including the protect-o-plate and original sales receipt etc.. I am letting go of the car without a reserve for personal reasons. I restore classic 60's cars and this el camino is my own personal car. 1965 chevelle/el camino with mostly all it's original parts from the factory. And some non original items such as the front seat upholstery, floor mats, cigarette lighter, radio antenna, engine and drive train. Local California car with no rust bought in Van Nuys California. I had the car lowered 2 inches all around back in 1996 or so. The body is super straight. Recent (less than a year old) 383 4 bolt main stroker engine with all the go fast goodies hand built by myself that's barley broken in with less than 200 miles, B&M turbo 350 3 speed automatic with shift kit and 2500 stall converter, a posi-traction with 411 geared rear end, from back in 1996 all refreshed. The brakes on the car are the factory manual all drum (never upgraded), recently replaced but the car can use a power disc brake conversion kit. The under side of the car looks just as nice as the rest. Exterior and steering wheel were sprayed a sea foam green from hot rod flatz a couple of years back, the dash and door jams were not. The paint has very minor nicks caused by road debris in about five areas, (would need to be up close to see). The front two eyebrow molding around the headlights were bent when installed, also the interior dome light lens is missing (see pic). Everything works lights, signals, radio etc.. The stereo system in the glove box is just the custom box an empty alpine face cover box a pioneer remote and there is a older alpine cd changer in the back along with the cables that were ran all come with the car (the actual stereo system I removed a long time ago). Rims, tires, shocks, trim, paint, moldings, chrome, bumpers are all like new condition. Current registration, ready to be enjoyed and driven (not sitting parked in a garage). The looks Great and always gets attention when out. It is super fast, lots of torque. Overall a beautiful very clean reliable hot rod. I am very sad to let her go but I must. One thing I can say for sure is the new owner is going to be VERY happy. Please feel free to contact me with questions or to come see the car before bidding. Please leave a message and I will call back. I have the car up for sale locally as well. Thank you (818) 427-2800

GM recalling 521,817 cars in two campaigns
Tue, May 12 2015General Motors is issuing two, separate recalls covering a total of 521,817 vehicles worldwide. The larger campaign covers 468,887 units of the 2011-2012 Chevrolet Malibu. Specifically, 437,045 of these are in the US, and the rest are outside the country. In these sedans, a steel cable that connects the seat belt to the vehicle can fatigue and separate. GM knows of 36 claims about the problem but only one minor injury. According to The Detroit News, this happened when a taxi driver hit his head. To fix things, dealers will replace the "outboard lap mounting bracket," which will move the tensioner rearward. They'll also inspect and if necessary replace the steel cable and lap pretensioner. In the second campaign, 52,930 examples the 2015 Chevy Colorado and 2015 GMC Canyon have seat frame attachment hooks that were installed incorrectly during assembly. GM hasn't received any reports of crashes, injuries, or fatalities about this problem. Dealers will inspect the affected trucks and repair as necessary. GM spokesperson Alan Adler told Autoblog that he didn't yet have a specific date when affected owners would receive official mailings about either of these recalls. GM Statement General Motors is recalling 48,309 2015 model year Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon midsize pickup trucks in the U.S. because certain seat frame attachment hooks were not properly attached to the vehicle body during assembly. Dealers will inspect the potentially affected seats for proper installation and repair if necessary. GM knows of no crashes, injuries or fatalities related to this condition. The total vehicle population of the recall is 52,930 including 4,620 vehicles sold in Canada. General Motors is recalling 437,045, 2011-2012 model year Chevrolet Malibus in the U.S. because the flexible steel cable that connects the safety belt to the vehicle can fatigue and separate over time as a result of occupant movement in the seat. Dealers will replace the outboard lap mounting bracket to relocate the tensioner slightly rearward. Dealers will inspect the cable and, if necessary, replace the lap pretensioner. GM knows of 36 claims, no crashes or fatalities and one minor injury reportedly related to the condition. The total vehicle population of the recall is 468,887 including Canada, Mexico and exports.
Autotrader picks best cars for 2015's college grads
Sun, May 31 2015Summer is here and the school season is winding to a close. That means millions of students will be graduating college and (hopefully) entering the workforce. For many, that will mean buying a new car suited to the new stage in life into which they will now be embarking. That can be a bewildering choice, especially for someone who's never bought a car before. Fortunately, Autotrader has come up with a short list of recommended cars – new and used – which it recommends to the graduating class of 2015. Among the site's top choices are some compelling crossovers and hatchbacks, including the Buick Encore, Chevy Trax, and Jeep Renegade, as well as the Honda Fit, Nissan Versa Note, Mazda3 and Fiat 500. Can't stretch to buying new, or don't see the point? Autotrader has also identified the Toyota Camry, Ford Fusion and even the Lexus IS as smart buys in the certified pre-owned category. "Any time someone goes through a major life change, such as graduating college, they need to determine if their current ride makes sense for their lifestyle, from both a financial and functional perspective," says Autotrader editor Brian Moody. "For example, while that hand-me-down SUV from your parents was nice when you turned 16, you may want to opt for a safer, more fuel-efficient car as you transition into the working world." Autotrader Names 10 Best Cars for Recent College Graduates ATLANTA, May 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- For many, graduating college is a milestone like no other – it represents a new chapter, a proud accomplishment and, fortunately or unfortunately, financial independence. Luckily for graduates who are in the market for a new car to suit their post-college lifestyle, Autotrader's expert editors say now is a great time to make a purchase, as dealerships are flush with affordable models that are fun, fuel-efficient and thoughtfully designed.

eBay Find of the Day: Mario Andretti's personal 2009 Corvette ZR1
Wed, Jan 7 2015With victory in the the Indianapolis 500, a Formula 1 World Championship, a win in the Daytona 500 and too many other motorsports accomplishments to list, Mario Andretti stands among not just the greatest American racing drivers of all time, but the greatest drivers, full stop. Apparently, the champ is also a fan of speed when not on the track, because now there's a chance to own what is said tobe his personal 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 with just 12,872 miles on the clock. The eBay Motors auction page clearly shows Mario Andretti standing with the car, but the rest of the ad is admittedly short on details. The vehicle history report lists only one previous owner – ostensibly Andretti. The exterior is a handsome Blade Silver Metallic accompanied by a Dark Titanium leather interior. However, the seller keeps additional information to a minimum as well with the description simply stating, "This 2009 Chevy Corvette ZR1 is owned by Mario Andretti and has been garage kept all its life. It is fully loaded with all option on this car." The future buyer will get a seriously great car along with some huge bragging rights at any party by touting its ownership history. We've reached out to the seller for more particulars and provenance, and will update this story if we hear back. In the meantime, the auction for this C6 ends on Thursday, January 8, and currently the reserve isn't met. The price sits at a hefty $68,100 as of this writing, with six bids registered.
