  Up for sale is my 1970 El Camino. This car is exactly as I bought it 5 years ago. I have too many toys and this one must leave to make more room in the garage. This car is powered by a 402 chevy big block and has plenty of power. I do not know the exact horsepower of the engine as it is not the original engine. It came off the line with a 350 small block, but the previous owner put the big block in the car and I could not get alot of information from him when I bought the car. He had the engine put in the car and was not a mechanic, so it is what it is. She is very fast and this is not a driving Miss Daisy car. It does have a posi rear end with 4:11 gears, automatic trans with a shift kit. It has IROC - Z rims that came with the car and good rubber on the tires. I do not have any other rims or tires for the car. This is a good solid car and I have not been able to find any mud in the car at all, so I believe it all to be solid metal. I am the third owner of the car. The last owner of the car owned it for 28 years and sold it to me when his health started to fail. The origianl color of the car was orange, but was air brushed painted for show. It was an original Detroit Autorama show car and then painted the current color. I did not pick the color as it sits now, but get alot of compliments on the car. This is the original milage on the car. The frame is very solid as is the whole car. It does have 1 small tear in the headliner and the seats are not original. The seats are out of an old Pontiac Fiero and are in good condition. The gauges on the hood all work. The lighter and gas gauge do not work. I have a new lighter for the car, but have not worked on the gas gauge. I do believe that it is just a bad ground. Everything else works correctly on the car. It does not have air conditioning. All the running lights and back up lights work. I did put a new radio in the car with 4 speakers. It is a MP3/CD player with remote. It also has air shocks in the rear with drum brakes rear and disc brakes in the front. Like I said this is a fast car and you will not be disappointed with the engine and powertrain. The car has been stored in my heated garage since I bought her.

  I will not accept paypal for this item. I will only accept cash or certified bank checks. I will not take any trades or silly offers, so please don't bother asking. The car is also for sale locally and I reserve the right to pull the listing at any time. I am not a mechanic and can only answer certain questions about the car. I have listed the car with a very resonable reserve price and will supply all documentation that I have for the car including a clear Ohio title. I will not deliver this car. The buyer is responsible for pick up or delivery of the vehicle. I live about 20 minutes west of Cleveland, OH where the car can be viewed. I have descibed the car as honestly as possible. If you have any questions, please shoot me an email and I will answer them as best I can. Thank you in advance and good luck bidding.

GM shows off 'digital vehicle platform' enabling more in-car tech and OTA updates

Wed, May 22 2019

It appears to have dropped the sobriquet "Global B," but General Motors' new electrical architecture has bowed in drawings and video. This is the "digital vehicle platform" GM president Mark Reuss spoke to Reuters about in 2015, saying it would move a great deal of a vehicle's computer work to the cloud and enable over-the-air updates. Reuss took the microphone for the debut, too, saying, "Our new digital vehicle platform and its eventual successors will underpin all our future innovations across a wide range of technological advancements, including EVs and expanded automated driving." The system will go into production later this year, appearing in dealerships first either on the 2020 Cadillac CT5 or the mid-engined 2020 Chevrolet Corvette. Yes, these are the same electronics cited for delaying the launch of the C8 Corvette over excessive draw, security and getting the more-than-100 computer modules to communicate seamlessly. When Car and Driver asked about that, GM replied with "No comment." Volkswagen's having the same issues with the Mk8 Golf right now, though, so GM isn't alone, and this will be the new normal among OEMs for a while. What's certifiable is that the new architecture is robust enough to handle 4.5 terabytes of data per hour, which is five times what GM's current wiring can handle. And thanks to Ethernet connections of 100 Mbps, 1 Gbs and 10 Gbs, communication within and without the vehicle happens much faster. The advances mean better screen resolutions, better battery management for hybrids and electric vehicles, the capability for over-the-air updates and "functionality upgrades throughout the lifespan of the vehicle." Cadillac's Super Cruise has already been lined up as a leading candidate for constant improvements in the driving assistance suite, a key part of GM's "vision for a world with zero crashes, zero emissions and zero congestion." And whenever GM decides to take the plunge, it will mean a 48-volt electrical system. More than 300 specialists worked on the digital platform, and security was a huge part of the task. We've already heard that GM consulted with Boeing and military contractors on how to prevent hacking. The carmaker has an internal Product Cybersecurity group that reached out to the research community, and created a "bug bounty" program to crowdsource uncovering any flaws.

The Jitterbugs somersaulted at the 1986 Chicago Auto Show for the Chevy Nova

Tue, Dec 30 2014

Judging by the vintage videos that the Chicago Auto Show has been uploading, if you wanted to check out the latest vehicles and watch some dancers in the same place in the late '80s and early '90s, then the Windy City event was definitely the place to be. We've already seen the Footlockers pitching the Cavalier in '88 and a troupe of women singing about the Geo brand in '91. Apparently, the trend went back even further, though. Just take a look at this group called the Jitterbugs selling some badge-engineered products from Chevrolet at the 1986 show. Flanked by the Chevy Nova and Spectrum, these guys managed to do a few pretty impressive jumps and somersaults but mixed them with some rather uninspired spins, as well. Also, wait for 1:24 into the clip to see the least enthusiastic backup dancers that the world has ever known. The Jitterbugs are even further proof that Chevy's habit of mixing dancing and its vehicles goes back even further than the Volt.

First 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 Sells For One Million Dollars

Mon, Apr 14 2014
