Here is your chance to own this 1981 "Hell Camino"!

"Hell Camino" was nicely restored over a span of several years (2006-2009), as was featured in the TV show GEARZ.

openexhaust.com/el_camino.html

The link shows a clip of the show, and the entire restoration process.

The build was beautifully done, and along with the link featuring the car and information on the build, I have 2 binders full of receipts and specs,

that will come with the car.

"Hell Camino" has a 350ci motor, a 350 turbo tranny (rebuilt in 2013) , with a B&M Ratchet Mega Shifter.

Has a 10bolt posi rear end with Eaton Carrier;

the axle shafts are Moser 28 spline, and the ring and pinion gear are Liberty gears 3:73. Has newer tires and rims.

Also has a nice sound system.

Even though the restoration was several years ago, she is still is in nice shape! She is a head turner, and sounds great!

I took this clip on 04/30/14

She still has the "Hell Camino" attitude! I've owned the El Camino for about a year, and had planned to put a 4spd in her, and put her back to the mint condition she was restored to. Unfortunately due to health issues I am unable to do so, so sadly I am selling her.

Feel free to email me with any questions!!!!!!

I do reserve the right to end the auction early as this car is for sale locally. Car is sold as is. No warranty expressed, written, or implied. Buyer is responsible for shipping and shipping costs, but I am willing to hold the car for a reasonable amount of time, while buyer gets shipping arranged, and I will help load if needed.

Recharge Wrap-up: 'Racing Extinction' Tesla, Wards praises 3 hybrids

Fri, Dec 11 2015

The makers of Racing Extinction used a tricked out Tesla Model S for their movie. The artists and activists used the electric car as a platform to project images from nature in various cities to raise awareness about imperiled wildlife. In addition to a the high-powered projector, the Model S features a electroluminescent paint job that emits light to mimic creatures found in the wild, such as bioluminescent sea life. It also has a thermal imaging camera in the front of the car with a filter to view CO2 emissions. Check it out in the video above, and read more at Ecomento. WardsAuto has named the 2016 Hyundai Sonata Plug-In Hybrid's powertrain to its list of 10 Best Engines. As the first plug-in hybrid to make the list, WardsAuto World Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter praises Hyundai engineers for their "impeccable job blending fuel efficiency with refinement and daily usability." Wards notes the car's smooth transitions between electric and hybrid modes, and a well-connected six-speed automatic transmission. Other electrified vehicles to make the list are the 2016 Chevrolet Volt and 2016 Toyota Prius. Read more from Hyundai, at Green Car Reports. FEV's plug-in hybrid battery pack has gone into vehicle series production. The 10-kWh battery pack, developed by the German development services provider, offers an all-electric range of about 30 miles. FEV says its battery management algorithms are just as important as choosing the right battery hardware. "The core system for the battery development is our own mature battery management system (BMS), now in its third generation, that together with optimized algorithms allows a very reliable and stable control of the battery," says FEV's Dr. Michael Stapelbroek. Read more at Green Car Congress, or in the press release from FEV below. Hybrid Vehicle Goes Into Series Production FEV development competence consists of batteries, controls, as well as complete drive systems FEV has demonstrated competence in the development of alternative drive concepts for almost twenty years. Most recently, yet another plug-in hybrid vehicle has gone into series production with technology provided by the Aachen-based developer. In addition to using an innovative transmission concept which is based on a FEV patent, FEV also developed the battery technology of the plug-in hybrid vehicle to series production readiness.

Chevy monitors drivers' biometrics while experiencing new Corvette Stingray

Fri, 25 Oct 2013

We tell you about what a car is like to drive every day, remarking on throttle response, steering weight and feedback, squat, dive, brake fade and a dozen or more other factors of performance. What we can't tell you, though, is what the car does to us - how its performance impacts us, physically. That's what makes this video series from Chevrolet so darn cool.
The Bow-Tie brand rented out Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch, got several (very) different individuals together, strapped a bunch of sensors to their bodies to record biometric data ranging from heart rate to respiration to brain activity, and then handed them keys to the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray. The results are explained in a series of videos, devoted to each driver, showing how different people react to the Corvette's performance.
If, like your author, you're a nerd for medical science, this is going to be a fascinating set of videos. If not, it's still pretty cool to see how the body of someone with racing experience, like Gran Turismo creator Kazunori Yamauchi, reacts to tracking a car like the Corvette Stingray compared to the owner of legendary Detroit barbecue joint, Slows BBQ. Take a look below for all six videos from the series, or hop over to the Corvette Vimeo channel for the interactive experience, where you can see all the different metrics.
