3 DAY AUCTION ONLY!!!!! Up for bids is a 1977 Chevrolet Elcamino. This is a very sharp car and with just a few minor things it can be a road worthy daily driver. The car has been off the road for awhile is why some attention is needed before you can put it on the road, very minor but the few things do need to be taken care of first for reliability and safety concerns. It has a 350 engine which im sure is not original and a turbo 350 automatic trans. The engine runs and sounds great and the trans seems to shift as it should. The car seems to have all the air conditioning intact but will need charged. The Elcamino also has cruise control and all it needs to work is the cable that runs it from the underhood junction. Ive only run this car a little ways in order to checkout the trans etc so I cant say a lot about it mechanical wise other than what ive already covered. Its going to need front shocks, they are pretty easy to push down, the rear has air shocks and they seem to hold air just fine. The car has what I think is a set of camaro wheels and one center cap is missing. The tires are all worn out and will have to be replaced immediately. They hold air fine but arent any good. All the glass in this car seems good and they have a pretty nice tint on them with only minor peeling on one of them. The windows are manuel as are the locks. The carpet is decent, far from new but driver quality. The upper part of the door panels are real good but the bottom part have faded quite a bit. They make a paint for them that works really good but are fine as a driver just as they are. The seats are swivel buckets and it also has a center console. The seats are actually pretty decent as is the console. The bucket seat, console interior is pretty scarice on these cars. Headline seems good also It needs the passenger side seatbelt, drivers is there. The dash has had one of those molded covers put on it and it has one crack in the middle of it, still looks pretty decent. Someone has taken the radio out so the opening is there for a cd player or what ever you chose. The tilt wheel is nice and tight which is also rare for these cars. The paint is driver quality, it has several small scratches and nicks from years of use. It has had some rust repair in the past but doesnt seem to be coming back through so it must not have been very bad. Wheel wells seem good and the bedfloor is solid. There is some rust underneath as all these cars have, right rear floor pan is getting bad but the others seem pretty good, some better than others. The frame has no rust!! The paint looks decent to have been off the road for awhile and it still has a decent shine but not real nice when you get up close It has the rally or super sport stripes painted on the hood and a pinstrip going down the side which both make this Elcamino stand out.. The trim around the bed is dented up pretty good and the piece for the top of the tailgate is missing. Also the tailgate is dented up pretty good so you may want to look for a replacement if your going to do this car up right. Grille is good, rear bumper is driver quality with a few small dents in it, front bumper is messed up on the drivers side corner, think the pics show this. It has dual exhaust but one side has the tailpipe broken loose from the muffler which is an easy fix. Thats about all I know to tell you so if you have other questions just ask. Guys this is a very sharp car and as I said it needs very little work to make a really nice daily driver or weekend cruiser. Also remember it is a 77 model so be realistic and dont expect 07 condition. If you have less than 10 positive feedback you must contact me before bidding or I will cancel your bid. Sorry but tired of all the non paying bidders and scams. I also reserve the right to end this auction early as I have the car for sale locally. Its a grat car guys so dont miss out. Checkout my 100% positive feedback which is well over 500. You dont get great feedback like that if you lie and cheat people, I tell it like it is. This Elcamino has a clear WV title ready to go. Thanks for looking and good luck should you decide to bid on this great looking Elcamino. I require a $500 non-refundable deposit at auctions end and the balance in full within 3 days. I will work with your shipper and the cr can sit here awhile as long as its paid for according to auction terms. REMEMBER THIS IS A 3 DAY AUCTION ONLY!!!!!!!! Thanks!!!

Watch the live reveal of the 2014 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra [UPDATE]
Thu, 13 Dec 2012UPDATE: The trucks have been revealed. Click here for all of the official details.
As promised, Chevrolet and GMC are offering a live webcast of the world premiere for the all-new 2014 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500. After being teased with spy shots and blurry images like the one above for ages, now is the time to see the trucks in the metal, for real (well, as 'real' as it gets on a webcast, at any rate).
Shift your eyes down just below to see the reveal as it happens, starting at 9:30 AM EST. We anticipate having loads of images full technical information to share after the webcast, too, so truck aficionados should stay tuned. We'll also be bringing you live images of both trucks too, when we see them on the show floor at next month's Detroit Auto Show.
Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
GM cutting production at two plants
Thu, Feb 26 2015General Motors is continuing to adjust to excess supply of some of its brands' models. To get production more in line with the vehicles' actual demand, the automotive giant is idling two of its factories in North America in the coming months. The Orion Assembly plant is going to be down from March 9-13, according to an anonymous plant worker and another insider speaking to Automotive News. The factory builds the Chevrolet Sonic and Buick Verano, but there are plenty of both models sitting on dealer lots, including 216 days worth of Sonics, according to AN. The factory already had two idle periods announced to reduce the excess. In addition, downtime is scheduled at GM's "Flex" line at the Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, plant from April 13-17. This affects supply of the Chevrolet Camaro, Impala, Buick Regal and Cadillac XTS. Among them, the automotive giant has the largest supply of Regals ready for dealers with 213 days worth of them, according to AN. The future for the whole Oshawa factory is cloudy in general, though. There are rumors that it could close entirely in the future because the Camaro is leaving and the Regal and XTS might not last much longer than 2017. The Canadian government and the labor union there intend to put up a fight, though.
