I purchased this beautiful, low mileage classic a few months ago to be my son's "cool" driver when he got his license.  Turns out, a 30 year old classic is super cool to my generation, but not so much to my 16 year old.   So my loss is your gain.

This is a rare choo-choo custom SS.  There were 1,300 made that year.  Although in excellent overall condition, I managed to find some up-grades that were needed.

1.  I had the A/C system completely overhauled, new compressor, etc., works perfectly.

2.  Replaced air shocks with shocks that matched the factory original air shocks.

3.  New performance muffler with tail pipe installed.

4.  Engine tune-up and battery replacement.

5.  Replaced original velour seat upholstery with nice leatherette to match door panels.  Seats were in excellent contition, but I just didn't like 1980's velour.

6.  New carpet.

6.  Replaced both door window seals.

Prior to my purchase, the car had received a two-stage re-paint in its original white.  No rust.  Body is lazer straight.  Tires are like new.  Original wheels.  Brakes like new.

This was a one family car, purchased in Kentucky that had obviously been well cared for.

Starts, shifts, and runs great.  Hard tourneau cover.  Original factory wheels with like new radials.

My mechanic believes the mileage is correct given the excellent overall condition of the car. 

I looked for several months before finding an El Camino of the quality and condition to be a daily driver.

I've already purcnased my son a new car, so I would like to sell this one A.S.A.P.

Please call (337) 439-1410 Office, or (337) 855-8533 Home for questions.  I reserve the right to sell this vehicle prior to close of auction.

Show ready or set up for your daily driver.

As is - no warrantee.

Corvette Stolen In Detroit Returned To Owner After 33 Years

Wed, Jun 25 2014

A Detroit man had his stolen Corvette returned 33 years after it disappeared while parked on one of Detroit's main drags, according to ABC 7. The last time George Talley saw his 1979 Corvette was on a July day in 1981, when it disappeared from its parking spot on Jefferson Avenue in Detroit. He had given up hope of ever seeing his car again, until a phone call from AAA brought his sporty ride home. Authorities had come across a Corvette with a questionable VIN in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. When they ran the number Talley's stolen car report came up. The car is still in pretty good shape and only has 47,000 miles on the odometer. Talley wasn't sure how he could get the car back home, but General Motors stepped in and agreed to cover the cost of bringing the 'Vette home. Talley has always had a passion for Detroit-made muscle cars. "I've always liked Corvettes. It was attractive. The ladies like 'em," Talley told ABC 7.

GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.
