Thousand Oaks, California, United States
|
This is a very good condition original SS 396 car with MATCHING NUMBER Big Block. It is a factory Black on Black car.
1968 is the first and only year that Chevrolet produced a factory SS model that was VIN specific. in 1968 only 5,190 SS El Camino's were produced. I purchased this car from the 2nd owner. He purchased from a friend who purchased the car new in La Crescenta , CA in 1968. It has the matching number block with original carb and manifold. Original exhaust manifolds. It has power brakes and steering. It also has factory A/C which has the belt removed as I have not had it charged. It still retains the famous California Black Plates. This is a dry California car. Always from the dry California San Fernando Valley. This car has had a light cosmetic restoration over the last 2 years. I started off with a no hit body which had all the original sheet metal. It was repainted the original Tuxedo Black. It has the factory bucket seats and center console. I had the seats professionally recovered as they should be and a new headliner installed. It has the original correct rally wheels and red line tires which are in great shape. This car runs and drives excellent. This car shows very well and is a great investment quality rare car. If you have any questions please call Joe at 8o5-823-5272. You may make arrangements to inspect the car or have someone inspect it for you. This is a used car and is being sold as is where is. I have tried to describe the car as best i can and expect that if you bid you bid to own and will complete the transaction contract.

Question of the Day: Worst year of the Malaise Era?
Thu, Jun 23 2016The Malaise Era for cars in the United States spanned the 1973 through 1983 model years, and featured such abominations as a Corvette with just 205 horsepower (from the optional engine!) and MGBs with suspensions jacked way up to meet new headlight-height requirements. There were many low points throughout this gloomy period, of course. The horrifyingly low power and fuel-economy numbers for big V8s during the middle years of the Malaise Era make a strong case for 1974 or 1975— the years of Nixon's resignation and the Fall of Saigon, respectively— as the most Malaisey years. But then the GM-pummeling debacles of the Chevy Citation and Cadillac Cimarron could make an early-1980s year the low point. 1979, the year of the ignominious Chrysler bailout? You choose!

Chevy Gives World Series MVP Madison Bumgarner A Recalled Truck
Thu, Oct 30 2014Last night must have seemed like a dream come true for San Francisco Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner. He helped his team win its third World Series Championship in four years, earned MVP status and was given a brand new 2015 Chevrolet Colorado. Bumgarner might want to hold off on taking a victory lap in his new truck however. The Colorado is currently under recall. General Motors issued a stop-delivery order earlier this month to fix the truck's air bag connectors, which were wired improperly during the manufacturing process. The faulty wiring can cause the system to deploy incorrectly. Only 138 customers have received their Chevrolet trucks, the rest were caught and repaired either in the plant or on their way to dealerships and show rooms. Recalls Chevrolet world series
Why the Corvette's Performance Data Recorder can be illegal in some states
Fri, 26 Sep 2014The Performance Data Recorder with Valet Mode available on the 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray seems like a fantastic tool for many owners. Whether they are taking 720p video while lapping the track in their new 'Vette, or just want to protect their purchase from inconsiderate joyriders, the system offers a lot of functionality in one package. However, one of the PDR's features might get buyers in trouble with the law, and it has nothing to do with recording some illicit high-speed driving on a favorite back road. The problem hinges on the various state laws concerning a person's right to privacy.
According to a letter posted by Jalopnik, Chevy dealers are asking 2015 Corvette owners not to use the Valet Mode portion of the PDR because it records audio in the cabin, in addition to performance specs. That's a problem because privacy laws vary from state to state with some requiring just one side's consent to tape sound and others requiring all parties to agree. According Jalopnik, 15 states mandate everyone's permission beforehand, but it's not clear whether these numbers are up to date. (Actually, the report varies, saying 13 states in some places and 15 in a list.)
According to the letter, Chevy is already working on a software update for the near future to rectify the issue. It's possible that simply adding a warning to drivers and the ability to turn off the audio recording function in Valet Mode might solve the problem. Obviously, this doesn't preclude Corvette drivers from using the performance aspect of the PDR, and owners are free tape lap after lap at the track.
