This is a beautiful custom 1987 El Camino. Unfortunately, I no longer have room for it in my garage, so I have to sell it.


The mileage listed is what currently reads on the odometer, but like all 1987 El Caminos, the odometer is only 5 digits and has "rolled over" back to zero after passing 99,999. The title to the vehicle indicates the fact that the odometer has exceeded its maximum threshold of 99,999. eBay lists this odometer notation as a "title problem", however any 1987 car with a 5-digit odometer is going to show this. The title is completely clear other than the notation regarding the 5-digit odometer.

There is no rust, and the paint is great. All of the chrome is also recently replaced. I've included close-up photos of the quarter panels to show the lack of any rust. 

Car has custom white powder-coated wheels and exhaust tips.

Interior was also redone with new carpet, new dash cover, new seat belts, and seats reupholstered in leather. The car has an in-dash head unit which has hard-drive navigation, Sirius satellite radio built-in, CD player, and hard drive for storing MP3s. It also has an alarm with keyless entry. A/C blows cold.

The car starts up, runs, and drives great.

The car was well-maintained and there are no glaring problems of which I'm aware. I need to sell only because I now have too many cars and therefore no longer have garage space for this El Camino. It's a shame to keep such a beautiful car outside, so I'd rather sell it to a good home that has space for it.

I've included lots of photos. In the bed photo, what you're seeing is a little bit of ice from a winter storm we recently had. Like I said, I ran out of garage space for this car recently, which is why I am selling.

It also has a spray-in bedliner which is color-matched to the paint job. This is pretty rare and looks cool.


On Feb-02-13 at 22:25:05 PST, seller added the following information:

When I was referring to all of the chrome being replaced recently, I was referring to the front and rear bumpers. The around the bed trim (which isn't actual chrome) is still all original, but is in good shape. The only part of the original bed trim that looked warn was the two rear corner pieces, and as a result I replaced both of those with fresh pieces about two years ago.

The only part of the original bed trim that looked warn when I bought the car was the two rear corner pieces, and as a result I replaced both of those with fresh pieces about two years ago. Now, with those two pieces replaced, all of the trim around the top of the bed looks great.


On Feb-04-13 at 05:09:23 PST, seller added the following information:

The car has factory electronic fuel injection.


The transmission is a 700R4.

The navigation/CD/satellite radio/hard drive head unit is a JVC KD-NX5000.

GM reports third straight sales drop in China in 2020

Wed, Jan 6 2021

BEIJING — General Motors' vehicle sales in China fell 6.2% in 2020, as the U.S. automaker suffered a prolonged slowdown in the world's biggest auto market. GM, China's second biggest foreign automaker, delivered 2.9 million vehicles in the country last year, the company said on Wednesday, for a third straight decline in annual sales. But sales have been recovering in the second half of last year, up 12% between July and September and 14% in the final three months. GM has a Shanghai-based joint venture with SAIC Motor, in which the Buick, Chevrolet and Cadillac vehicle brands are made. It also has another Liuzhou-based venture, with SAIC and Guangxi Automobile Group, in which they make no-frills minivans and have started to make higher-end cars. Sales of its Buick brand grew 4% on the year and Wuling rose 9%, the statement said. Luxury brand Cadillac's sales increased 8%. Sales of GM's more affordable Baojun brand dropped 33% last year, while sales of its mass-market Chevrolet tumbled 30%. GM's delivery of 2.9 million vehicles in China follows 3.09 million vehicles in 2019, 3.65 million vehicles in 2018, and 4.04 million in 2017, for a three-year decrease of 28%.

Mustang, Camaro, Challenger gallop onto USPS pony car postage stamp set

Tue, Jul 19 2022

Some of America's most iconic cars are about to be immortalized on postage stamps. A new set by the U.S. Postal Service will celebrate the the golden era of pony cars, featuring five classic examples of Detroit iron. Each one is beautifully illustrated in oil-on-canvas style, with subjects in motion and sunlight glinting off the chrome, and would add a nice touch to any first-class letter. The pony car segment was all about (relatively) small, sporty alternatives to the full-size land yachts of the 1960s. They typically came equipped with 6-cylinder engines or small-block V8s. The category was named after the Ford Mustang, hence  the name. Some, though, argue that the Plymouth Barracuda, which was launched a couple of weeks before the Mustang, is the first. Luckily, the Falcon-based Mustang's distinct styling generated a sales sensation, or we might be calling them fish cars. Appropriately, one of the featured cars is a Mustang. But it's not just any Mustang. The 1969 Boss 302, seen here resplendent in Bright Yellow, was created for the hotly-contested SCCA Trans-Am racing series. One of its main rivals would have been the 1969 Chevy Camaro Z/28, also created specifically for the series, and is included in the set in Fathom Green. Representing Auburn Hills in the set is a 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T in Plum Crazy, while Southfield's American Motors gets a nod with an AMC Javelin in Big Bad Orange. The Mustang's platform cousin, a 1967 Mercury Cougar XR-7, is portrayed in a gorgeous Burgundy Poly that almost looks incomplete without Neko Case on the hood. It's not the first time the USPS has honored America's rich car culture on its stamps. In 2013, it issues a series of muscle car stamps with the help of Richard Petty. That set featured a 1966 Pontiac GTO, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1970 Chevelle SS, 1970 Plymouth Hemi ’Cuda and, of course, a 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona. Another set in 2016 featured classic pickup trucks. Going further back, a 2008 release had chroed and finned automobiles of the 1950s and a 2005 release featured sporty American cars of the same era. The pony car stamps will debut on August 25 at the Great American Stamp Show in Sacramento, California in partnership with the American Philatelic Society. The public is free to attend the dedication ceremony, but you must RSVP first. After that, they will be available at local post offices and on line at the USPS store.
