Up for sale is a beautiful 1967 Chevrolet El Camino. I got
this car last year and have decided to sell it to get some capital for a
business I am starting (also selling an awesome Honda CB750 for the same reason
if you’re interested). That is why this beautiful car is up here with NO
RESERVE. I really wanted this car as a long-term driver/project, as it is my
favorite year of El Camino, but I am going to have to wait. Link here is to a video of the car The El Camino is in perfect shape to be a useable project car. It runs strong and feels great to drive. After its warmed up car fires right up on the first try and the transmission feels tight and shifts clean. Power steering is working well, the steering wheel is easy to turn even when stopped or moving slowly. The things I have personally added to this great elco are the brand new caps and beauty rings on the Chevy rally wheels (from Original Parts Group). Car has 15 inch rally wheels in the back and 14 inchers in the front to give it a more aggressive stance and the correct sizes of caps and rings for both sizes. Brand new headlight bezels and trim in the front on the sides of the grill. Car is the original color for its paint code “RR”, which is
Bolero Red, one of the most desirable colors for Chevelles and El Caminos of
this era. As you can see in the pictures paint looks absolutely amazing. Some
of the areas inside the bed have started to crack with age, but the car is
still a total stunner and gets attention everywhere on the road. Interior is black with a leather bench seat, which is in
good condition with few nicks and tears (see pictures). Black headliner is
nearly perfect with no sags or rips. The black carpet does not have rips, but has started to fade from age/sun and is kind of brown in some areas. Car is an original
396. I am not sure if the engine in it now is the original, but it is
definitely a big block. According to the previous owner it was rebuilt 10,000
miles before he sold it to me. (I’ve put a couple thousand on it since I bought
it last year.) It runs strong and sounds completely beastly. Has a stock carb
and still has enough speed to scare yourself. Transmission is a turbo 400 and feels clean when it shifts, no lag etc. I had the steering column totally rebuilt less than 100 miles ago so it does not feel sloppy when you’re shifting from park as most old automatics tend to feel. Bottom of bed has bed liner in it to keep away the bed rust El Caminos are so infamous for, but it looks awesome as well. The black against the red really pops The issues I would love to fix on the car are that it leaks oil, not sure from where, but for your driveways sake you will probably eventually want to get that fixed. It is not enough to affect the cars drive ability but it will leave stains when parked. Also the car needs some electrical work, as the taillights, gas gauge, dash lights and high beams do not work. Low beam headlights work well and selector switch (by your feet to switch between high and low beams) works fine. This wasn’t an issue for me as I have another car and only drove the El Camino around during the day, but it will at some point need to be addressed. The previous owner installed a kill switch that is actually pretty cool. It is under the dash and the car will not start without the switch being on. Probably the most clever theft deterrent I have ever seen. However, I think that it may be the culprit on the electrical issues, it has never caused the car to stall or malfunction, it’s just a hunch. It seems to me a new wiring harness would quickly fix all of the issues at once, but I have simply run out of time to install one myself. Car has a Kenwood Stereo with CD and AUX input, Two Kenwood
speakers in the back behind the seats. It’s not currently hooked up to power
because I disconnected it trying to hunt down the taillight/dashlight problem,
but speakers and antenna are wired to it and stereo works great This El Camino is all around a great car and would be a
great addition to a classic car collection or a first step into classic muscle
cars. The ‘67 just hzas so much personality and this car is no exception. |

Recharge Wrap-up: Detroit Electric teaser video, Nissan Leaf is Good Housekeeping "Tried and Tested"
Mon, Oct 20 2014Detroit Electric has a new teaser video and has updated its brand in preparation of the introduction of the SP:01. The refreshed logo uses a blue and white color palette, and the company has also given its website a new look. The teaser video, which gives a sneak peek at the exterior of the SP:01, shows the car taking form in the midst of an electrical storm. Watch the video or learn more in the press release below. Abengoa is celebrating the grand opening of a commercial scale cellulosic ethanol plant in Hugoton, KS. When running at full scale, the refinery will produce up to 25 million gallons of ethanol a year. The plant will also generate enough electricity to power itself and put some back into the grid. Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz was on hand for the dedication, saying, "Every gallon of cellulosic ethanol produced and used to fuel our vehicles reduces the impact of harmful greenhouse gas emissions by greater than 60 percent as compared to conventional gasoline." Learn more at Energy.gov. Good Housekeeping has named the Nissan Leaf one of its "Tried and Tested" vehicles. The magazine called the Leaf SL its top "Roomy Electric" vehicle in its November issue. The magazine's research institute evaluated the EV based on track and road driving, ergonomics and convenience features. Good Housekeeping made note of the car's "impressive" range, but according to Nissan's Fred Diaz, "the real beauty of the Nissan Leaf is that it's roomy and, best of all, fun to drive." Read more in the press release below. Quasar Energy Group produces compressed natural gas from sewage and garbage. It uses things like grains leftover from brewing Budweiser, food waste from a baseball stadium and sewage sludge to produce the gas through anaerobic digestion. The compressed gas can then be used to power cars like Chevrolet's Bi-fuel Impala, which goes on sale later this year. Chevrolet likens the situation to the Delorean time machine in the Back To The Future movie series, which uses garbage to fuel its fusion generator.

Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]
Tue, 19 Mar 2013This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...
