I am offering my 1979 Chevy El Camino "Candy O". I am the proud owner of this vehicle for now 10 years! This was a FRAME OFF RESTORATION done 4 years ago. I am going to explain the detail but I could write for days so again call or e-mail with questions. Car is an original V8/Th350 automatic. I installed a 1971 Camaro 307 V8 4 years ago. The mileage on the engine at that point in time was about 55k. The guy with camaro put in 600+hp engine and had no use for original engine. This was a score for me. The engine was a virgin as they come. Rated at 9.1 Compression and 200hp it is more powerful that the typical 1980's 350 and superior over the 140hp 305's of the same time period! I installed HEI ignition as well as a 1980 Corvette Rochester 4 barell mated to an Edlebrock proformer intake backed by $1000.00 of pypes dual exhaust and ceramic headers! Going easy pushing 240 HP if not better. ZERO running issues at all. I put at least 35,000k on it since I installed the engine. The point in case is the car didn't sit around. I used it again and again! The transmission is a Th350 3 speed automatic. I had this rebuilt by a professional trans shop in NJ. MAYBE if it has 10k on it that would be a lot. The complete front end was rebuilt, all new upper/lower conrol arm bushings, springs all around, new calipers, brake drums, master cylinder. EVERY SINGLE BRAKE LINE was replaced BRAND NEW. YES EVERY LINE.... BRAND NEW (7 out of 10 G Body GM cars have time bomb brake lines ticking away waiting to explode and leave you stranded). All new flex hoses. The body was removed from the chassis and I replaced the whole chassis with a perfect rot free one! (The prior chassis was rotted in 3 places) ALL NEW BODY MOUNTS WERE INSTALLED. AM/FM CD player, speakers in box behind seat. The bottom of the car is just about new. NO HOLES IN FLOORS. NO HOLES IN BODY.Bottom of the car painted in satin black 4 years ago. The rear end was rebuilt and 3.42 gears were installed. It has massive acceleration power from a standstill. Most lazy rear ends were 2.41 2.73 in these cars. NO WIRING ISSUES WHATSOEVER. Everything works, all lights, horn, heater. It is a FACTORY STYLE NO A/C car. (included but not shown in photos is a complete A/C unit I saved from another car of same vintage as well as many other misc odd items I have hoarded away, trim, mechanical, etc- There is a street value in these items alone. All goes with car upon sale)The bed will be loaded with all extra parts for new owner to keep or sell. The paint was stripped to the bare metal and car is painted with basecoat/clear Diamont products (not cheap ). Bumpers are like new, the only defect I want to mention is some surface paint bubbles in both front corners of the doors. THE DOORS ARE NOT ROTTED! They are solid as a rock. This is common in this 78-88 G body cars as that is where moisture collects. If this is offensive to you $500 addition will correct it before you take the car. If not you take it as is. I have ZERO to hide and most would not even mention it. It's not even that bad I am honest seller and don't have time to waste by telling stories. I live in NY 10920. Car is also for local sale. Listing may end at any given time. IF you want the car come view in person if need be. If you bid on it from far away, know and understand that bid is contract. I don't want to deal with confused people who don't have the money or bid for the purpose of their entertainment. The car is well worth $10,000 if not better. My RESERVE IS NO WHERE NEAR THAT. I don't owe this car a nickel. It's been with me ten years. I am bailing out and calling it a day. FAR MORE IN IT THAT IT'S ACTUAL VALUE. Terms of sale are as follows. $500 pay pal deposit no more than 24 hours after end of auction. If you DO NOT HAVE IT, DO NOT BID. The rest cash in hand, bank check, or direct deposit. I am not going to ACCEPT PAY PAL as payment of car, if that is your intention do business elsewhere. This isn't a part, this is a vehicle. A vehicle I am giving away, so let's make this transaction quick and to the point. The full amount is due no more than 7 days after the end of auction. All non paying bidders will be reported. Please be serious and back up your bid for the fairness of others. Car is AS/IS, WHERE IS in NY 10920. Buyer is responsible for all transport fees to their home. Come pick up and drive home after paid in full. I have a CLEAN NY tittle in my name. It is the ownership of the vehicle. Do your homework.... $1500-3000 or so buys you junk. You will put more into something you buy for that price. I did all the work for you, find the money. This is worth it. I have others at a local level who dream about this so I'm just waiting on an educated cash offer and it leaves my life.... time waits for no one.... no favorites. Thanks for reading.....
On Aug-25-14 at 11:34:22 PDT, seller added the following information: YES I AM AWARE OF A FEW SPELLING ERRORS. I WAS DOING THIS FROM A CELL PHONE. I WAS SAYING CAR BEING RELISTED DUE TO FALSE BIDDER. DO NOT BID ON THE CAR UNLESS YOU HAVE THE MONEY AND ARE READY TO GO. |

First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph
Tue, 01 Oct 2013Chevrolet's latest road rocket, the Corvette Stingray, is a very quick car. If one needs further proof of that, we recommend they take a look at this video from Hennessey of what is claimed to be the first privately owned C7 Corvette to make a pass down the quarter mile. Not just any quarter mile, mind, this black C7 blitzed its way down the tuner's primary testing dragstrip. The Chevrolet ran the quarter in just 12.23 seconds at 114.88 miles per hour. That is a very quick time for a stock car.
Equipped with the Z51 package and a six-speed automatic transmission, not only does the C7 run a solid time, but it does so with little to no drama. That won't last though, as Hennessey will likely return it to its owner with far more power - we just hope they show a drag run of the completed product. Take a look below to watch the C7's 12.23-second run on video.
2016 Chevy Volt arrives with 50-mile EV range, 41 mpg [w/ video]
Mon, Jan 12 2015Let's start with the numbers. The 2016 Chevy Volt will have an all-electric range of 50 miles from a new, 18.4-kWh lithium battery. It will get 41 miles per gallon (combined) once the battery runs dry and have 102 MPGe. Oh, and it has five seats, sort of. To compare, today's four-seat 2015 Volt has a 38-mile range from a 17.1-kWh battery in a powertrain that offers 37 mpg and 98 MPGe. So, across the board, there are notable improvements. Now that that's out of the way, let's talk story. General Motors will unveil the new Volt at the Detroit Auto Show later today, but it's been talking about how this new version – the first major plug-in hybrid vehicle to get a serious redo in the modern era – was crafted with reams and reams of data from first-gen Volt customers. At a preview event for journalists last week, GM executive chief engineer Pam Fletcher told Autoblog that these owners "gave us the recipe" to make the second-gen model. At the top of the request list was more range (check), more "fun-to-drive" behavior (check?) and a smoother and quieter experience (we'll assume a check here, given that the new 1.5-liter four-cylinder – the first North American application of this new engine family – should offer more power with less noise than the previous 1.4-liter, four-cylinder powerplant). Other customer-driven changes in the new Volt include a different place to store the charging cable (in the side of the trunk instead of under the load floor) and a new brake system with improved blended regenerative braking feel as well as driver-selectable regen levels. The requested 50-mile range comes from a new, lighter battery that has increased capacity from fewer cells (192 vs. 288) and a simplified control architecture. Along with the new battery, the electric drive unit is a two-motor deal that is up to 12 percent more efficient and 100 pounds lighter, while also being "tremendously smaller," notes Fletcher. It offers 294 pound-feet of torque and a maximum 149 horsepower of "motoring power" delivered to the wheels. GM says it has worked hard to reduced the amount of rare earth materials in these motors, and one of them doesn't use any at all. The new powertrain offers improved acceleration times, as well. The 2016 Volt can go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 8.4 seconds, a seven-percent improvement, while the 0-30 mph time has been improved by 19 percent, down to 2.6 seconds. The new Volt is more conventional looking, but certainly not completely ordinary.
GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles
Tue, 06 Aug 2013General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.
