1966 Chevy Chevelle El Camino Rebuilt 350, Brand New Interior on 2040-cars
Andover, Massachusetts, United States
|
Runs and drives, in great shape. Fast and fun as hell. Clean MA title, inspection sticker good until August. Needs some minor stuff to be great. Listed problems are why I am listing the car at ~$3K under book value.
90,120 on the car. The 5.7L 350 engine is out of a late 1960's corvette, and was rebuilt by previous owner, and it only has about 16K miles on it. I just finished restoring the new black interior, including brand new scat pro bucket seats, new 80/20 premium black carpet, new dash pad, new dash strip, new grant steering wheel, console trim, all new knobs and buttons in chrome, new dash bezel surround, new gas gauge, new speedometer cable, new arm rests, new arm rest pads, new custom back wall covered in vinyl, new kick panels, etc. Also Brand New: Dynomax stainless header back dual-exhaust system, new battery, new ignition switch, new exterior door locks, new water neck housing and seal, new 180 F thermostat, and just did a radiator cleaning/flush. Bad: -Car starts and is driveable, but could use an updated dash wiring harness or wiring work for dash wiring. Gauge cluster lights are not going on. Shop estimated a new wiring harness and installation at $800. -has some minor bubbling on the driver door and under the back window. No rust through. - steering column gear indicator needs to be replaced. Spring snapped off during removal of the dash. -new radio/cd player not installed, the style is not what i wanted so I left it out (it is included) |

Watch a 2015 Corvette Z06 run the quarter in 11.7 seconds
Sun, Dec 28 2014We're not writing about this because it's an amazing run, we're writing about it because it appears to be the first run. Someone took a 2015 Corvette Z06 to Royal Purple Raceway in Baytown, Texas and blasted it down through the quarter mile. It's still wearing the dealer number in wax pen on the windshield and dealer plates, so this example is fresh from the mold. It's also a seven-speed manual. General Motors said the row-your-own Z06 can do the 'strip in 11.2 seconds, and they undoubtedly had a professional driver and more than one run to set that time. To have Just Some Guy show up at the raceway and do an 11.7 at 120.54 mph on his first run means we expect good things to come as Z06s get delivered to their owners. Check out the run in the video.
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
Man spent $75 on a truck that lasted 38 years
Mon, Jan 5 2015Absurd as it is, some buyers today are worried about getting their car to last throughout the term of their seven-year car loan. Minnesota resident Bob Sportel has the opposite issue: his Chevrolet truck seemingly won't die. Sportel needed a cheap ride to get to work when he took a job at a farmer's co-op 38 years ago, so he bought a rusty 1957 Chevy pickup for $75 from a farmer; at the time, the 20-year-old truck was almost as old as Bob was. After nearly four decades of daily driving and an estimated 300,000 miles, Sportel is still driving the truck today. Bolts secure a fender, Bondo secures the lights, what looks like a whole roll of duct tape keeps him sitting on the bench seat instead of in it. For a 58-year-old pickup that's never seen a garage or a new coat of paint – but did get its oil changed four times a year – that's not bad; Sportel thinks his repair bill hasn't got above $1,000 for the entire time he's owned the truck. He still has no plans to get rid of it, saying, "It just becomes a part of you." You can watch his story in the video above. News Source: KARE11.com Chevrolet Truck Classics Videos
