1964 Chevrolet El Camino survivor - 50 years old and still running. I bought this about five years ago with the intent of finishing the bodywork that a prior owner started and cleaning it up a bit for an oldies cruise night cruiser. Too many other projects have gotten in the way, and I've done almost nothing to it.

It originally had a 283 with a four-speed on the floor. The engine was replaced with a later model 350, although the prior owner thought it still had the 283 in it. I haven't crawled under it to check the numbers on the four speed to see if it is original to the car, but it very well could be.

The car spent part of its life in Texas, then moved to Wisconsin before I bought it and moved it to St. Louis. It's been stored indoors for at least the last five years, but as with almost any fifty year old car, there is rust. The prior owner started some body work, and I did do a little work on paint chips. The prior owner told me the sunroof was there when he bought it. It is obviously an older after-market flip-up model. It's been rained on a couple of times and hasn't leaked, but I don't know what might happen in a hard rain.

There is a security system with remotes and a hood lock mounted under the dash. Also under the dash is an AM/FM radio. The original AM is still in the dash, but it appears to be disconnected. I have not tried to see if it might still work. It has factory original bucket seats and still has the spare tire cover over the spare behind the passenger seat.

Lights and gauges seem to all work to some degree. Speedometer does not appear to be accurate at higher speeds, although it does seem to be within reason under 35 MPH. Gas gauge is clearly off, since it never reads over 3/8 full. Turn signals don't always cancel. Wipers work, although it could use new blades.

Tires have plenty of tread, although they are clearly not new. They do not appear to be weather-checked or age-checked, and all four on the ground hold air well. I haven't checked the spare tire pressure, although it does thump solid.

A regular rust problem with this year El Camino is just below the rear window. This car does not show rust problems here, nor do I see signs of prior repairs. Most of the trim is there and good. I have a complete set of letters to be installed on the tailgate.

The car runs decent, although it could be better with a good tuneup. I drive it to one of the local club's monthly cruise night several times a year, and have never had a problem.

This is a good candidate for restoration or a later-model rat rod. Spend the winter working on it and have nice cruiser come spring! Buyer responsible for shipping from St. Louis metro area. I will work with your shipper or help you load on your car hauler trailer. Cash is preferred, but cashier's check will be accepted, although I will hold the title until the check clears. With cash in hand, you will receive clean title and bill of sale at time of payment.

Opel CEO talks new EV, will likely be fresh face for Chevy, too

Wed, Jul 23 2014

The rumored demise of the Opel Ampera has been confirmed, but there's good news, too. Opel CEO Karl-Thomas Neumann has been busy Tweeting information about the brand's next plug-in vehicle, admitting that the Ampera is on the way out but that plug-in vehicles are here to stay. His Tweets, in full, read: After the eventual run-out of the current generation Ampera, we'll introduce a successor product in the electric vehicle segment. Our next electric vehicle will be part of our massive product offensive – with 27 new vehicles in the 2014-2018 time frame. We see eMobility as important part of the mobility of tomorrow and we will continue to drive down costs & deliver affordability. As we learned earlier this week, the Ampera will not be refreshed when the current Chevy Volt is updated, most likely because of slow sales. Opel sold just 332 Amperas in the first five months of 2014. For now, General Motors is still building Amperas in Michigan for export to Europe. So, what might this new EV mean for the General Motors plug-in fleet? Official spokespeople are being quiet, but we think it's safe to say the new EV Neumann is talking about is not simply a rebadged Chevy Spark EV. This is the first official word about an entirely new EV, and we expect it will come to both the Chevrolet and Opel brands.

Chevy recalls 73k Cobalts for side airbag non-deployment

Mon, Aug 24 2015

Chevrolet is recalling 73,424 examples of the 2010 Cobalt in the US and Canada because the driver's side curtain airbag might not deploy in a crash. These vehicles carry build dates between January 4 and June 23, 2010, and, specifically, 59,474 of them are in the US. "GM is aware of one crash with one injury that may be related to this condition," the company said in a statement. The problem occurs because of improper routing of the side-impact sensor wiring harness in the driver's door, and there can be a short circuit causing the curtain airbag not to deploy. The campaign to fix the issue will begin on August 26. Dealers will inspect the vehicles and will repair the issue on any affected examples. Related Video: GM Statement: General Motors is recalling 59,474 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt sedans in the U.S. because some of them may have been built with improper side impact sensor wire routing in the left front door. Dealers will inspect all suspect vehicles and any found with the condition will be repaired free of charge to the customer. GM is aware of one crash with one injury that may be related to this condition. Including vehicles sold in Canada, the total recall population is 73,424. RECALL Subject : Improperly Routed Side Impact Wire Harness Report Receipt Date: AUG 10, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V500000 Component(s): AIR BAGS Potential Number of Units Affected: 59,474 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle Make Model Model Year(s) CHEVROLET COBALT 2010 Details Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt vehicles manufactured January 4, 2010, to June 23, 2010. The affected vehicles may be equipped with an improperly routed Side-Impact Sensor (SIS) wiring harness in the driver side front door. The misrouted wiring harness could cause an electrical short that disables the driver side curtain air bag. CONSEQUENCE: A disabled driver side roof-rail air bag will not deploy in the event of a crash necessitating deployment of that air bag, increasing the risk of injury to the driver. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the sensor's wiring in the driver's door and make repairs as necessary, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin August 26, 2015. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is 15075.

2016 Lamborghini Huracan at the Horse Thief Mile | AutoblogVR

Tue, Sep 13 2016

AutoblogVR returns to the Horse Thief Mile in the Mojave Desert to put the Lamborghini Huracan to the test. It's everything we want a modern supercar to be: Powerful, striking in appearance, and a riot to drive. But does it live up to Lamborghini's unique performance heritage? Senior Editor Greg Migliore reviews the Huracan on Horse Thief's unyielding curves and elevation changes to find out. Meanwhile, Autoblog Editor-in-Chief Mike Austin reviews a different kind of performance car – the Chevy SS at the IndyCar circuit on Detroit's Belle Isle. He's ably assisted by ace driver Simon Pagenaud. You must watch his hot lap! The SS is old-school V8 American muscle wrapped in Australian design and engineering. This AutoblogVR segment also launches on the app Sept. 13, and the teaser follows the Huracan preview above. Each week, new episodes will launch on the AutoblogVR App. We'll preview them here on Autoblog, but for the full immersive experience, head over to the app, which you can download for free from the App store and Google Play. Be sure to try it with a cardboard viewer, too!
