Here is a nice 1987 GMC Caballero. The Caballero is the sister car to the Chevy El Camino. Since Ebay doesn't list the Caballero in the models I used the El Camino listing to make sure she was listed with the other like cars. Everywhere I drive this car people ask me about it. I am the second owner of this car. Previous owner passed and his son sold it to me in an estate type sale about 5 years ago. It ran well when I got it but I made alot of improvements. Originally it was black but need to be painted because it was a little faded and I wanted her to look sharp. I have had the engine gone through by a professional mechanic - he rebuilt the carburator, installed new battery, replaced the oil pan, installed new brake lines. I installed some nice 16 inch wheels and white letter tires, had it painted, also converted it to dual exhaust. I also had the seats recovered and new carpet installed. I also added a nice stereo system installed with large new speakers behind the seats (It Rocks!). Stereo also has a USB port. When I bought it I noticed a slight body roll when I purchased it so I took it to a race mechanic and installed a larger steering (Sway bar - I think is what it's called) system. Now she sticks to the road like a Jungle Cat! There is no Body roll on this car! Exit and entry ramps are a blast! (in more ways than one). It is a pretty fast car - but I have babied her since she is a little old. Going down the highway she rides like my Cadillac! Let go of the wheel and she stays straight. Will she spin the tires? YES! but only one will spin! Some people have suggested adding Positive traction but I've already got too much money in it. Is the air cold? It's cool but will leak down. Originally I think it was Freon - but I have had some guys convert it to modern (whatever it is now). Maybe theres a leak in the system somewhere - but it is cold for quite a while. The suspension is nice - I guess it could use some modern front shocks but the rear is "air-ride". Yes, you can add air to the rear shocks through a valve beside the gas cap. The black rubber (window sills?) are dry rotted and rain will leak down into the doors. when caught out in the rain. I have kept her in the garage most of the time - I have noticed a few rust bubbles down low in the door panels. My mechanic says it wouldn't be too much to take care of. Well, I HATE to see her go but...it's tax time and I am moving out some of my toys. This is a FUN car to drive - I have used her as a daily driver over the past 4-5 years and I know she will serve her next owner well. Good luck!

Pony-car sales war: Mustang vs. Camaro vs. Challenger [UPDATE]

Fri, Jul 3 2015

Update: An earlier version of this story misstated the 2015 Mustang's weight when compared with previous models. Additionally, we have added comments from Chevrolet in the text. The Ford Mustang has blown past the Chevy Camaro as America's best-selling pony car, and in June, it wasn't even close. The 'Stang outsold the Camaro 11,719 to 8,611 cars. The Camaro remained ahead of the Dodge Challenger, which sold 6,845 units. Even though the Camaro did post an 11.5-percent sales improvement in June, the competition is arguably stronger than at anytime since the 1970s muscle-car era. The Mustang's sales leapt a whopping 53.6 percent, while the Challenger saw a gain of 56 percent. Several factors are weighing down Camaro sales, including its lame duck status. Chevy is launching a new generation of the Camaro this year that's more than 200 pounds lighter, offers a new turbo four-cylinder engine option, and has a nicer interior than the outgoing model. Put simply: wait a few months and you can get a better car. It's also unlikely Chevy will jack up the price much, as it's historically kept the Camaro within reach of everyday enthusiasts. While Chevy fans wait in anticipation for their new sports car, Ford and Dodge have downshifted. The new Mustang, which went on sale last year, is faster and more sophisticated than its predecessor. It also offers a 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder, which Ford has credited for the Mustang's recent uptick and makes up 36 percent of the car's sales, Ford analyst Erich Merkle said. View 17 Photos June's performance allowed the Mustang to widen its sales gap with the Camaro this year. Through the first five months, Ford sold 68,290 Mustangs, a 54.4-percent increased compared with 2014. Chevy sold 42,593 Camaros, an 8.7-percent decrease. The Challenger – long the No. 3 pony car in sales volume Â– has seen its sales surge 41 percent this year to 37,011 units. Spokesman Monte Doran said Chevy expected that 2015 would be a "relatively soft year" for the Camaro. "Mustang is taking advantage of years' worth of pent-up demand for an independent rear suspension," he said. "When Camaro introduced an IRS, in 2009, it helped make us the best-selling performance car in America.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
