This is a very nice 1959 Elcamino according to the VIN it started out as a six cylinder, the cowl tag says it was an eight but vin says six. Ive read online that all 59 came with the cowl tag for an eight?. This car was bought in  colorado in 2000 by a friend in New Mexico, who redid the car himself. This isnt a professional restoration but still was done very nice. He replaced the quarter panels on it and did the rest of the body work on it. The black on the car has a red metalic on it , the car looks good and turns heads everywhere. The floor pans where patched but not with oem pans. He just used some steel did a nice job but its not professional. Please see the pictures. There is two cracks on the drivers right quarter also see the pics. The interior is very nice he had the seat reupholstered, new carpet, new door panels and headliner. Has power windows with the switch located on the lower extended dash/ gauge holder. The speedometer and gas guage do not work, the temp, oil and alt gauge are working. The engine decodes to being a 1965 to 1967 283, it has a 1968 0r 1969 muncie 4 speed according to the number on the housing.  The engine runs out nice. The brakes need some work they stop but it has 4 wheel drum brakes with the original one hole master cylinder. The tires on the front are good, the rear have good tread but are dry rotted very bad i would not  drive far on them. It has dual exhaust in almost like new condition. the under side of the vehicle was also cleaned and coated. the bed was lined with a rhino type lining not sure what brand it is. It has the california one peice bumpers with the rear bumper having the steps on it. It has a custom grill but also have the original grill that goes with the car. The stainless is decent. Im sure there is more that ive missed, Im not trying to trick or cheat anyone ive told what i know if you have more question please ask and ill check . That being said if you do not have more than10  bids on ebay please conttact me first so that i know your real and not one of these players out there. If you do not contact me i will delete you. This is not professional retoration, But it is a very good looking car and turns heads you dont need to do anything major to this Elcamino just enjouy all the attention it gets. . So let me repeat this is not a professional job . There where only 22,246 of these made so not many left out there today. I dont need to sell this car and wont give it away.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado tows in new configurator, microsite

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

Judging by your continued enthusiastic response to configurator notices, dear reader, you enjoy speccing out new cars as much as we do. Better still, there tends to be even more ways to personalize, configure and bloat theoretical MSRPs on full-size trucks as there are with more ordinary passenger cars. In addition to trim level, engine and transmission choices, truck buyers usually have to specify items like cab configuration, bed length, number of driven axles, tow packages, gear ratios and all sorts of bits and bobs.
That's why we're pleased to see the DIY specification utility for the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado come alive so soon after this week's Detroit Auto Show debut. While the configurator lacks pricing (General Motors hasn't announced numbers yet) and full options, you can still spec out your half-ton rig, and even print it out or email it to your friends. Beyond the configurator, the new model-specific site is pretty cool, too, with various videos and closer looks at the truck's new features.
The new Chevrolet pickup range won't be on dealer lots until sometime this summer, so whether you're a building contractor, an avid sportsman or just a guy or gal that loves full-size trucks, you might want to check out the link below to keep your appetite whetted. If you're more of a Sierra fan, well, it looks like you're going to have to wait a while - GMC hasn't updated its site yet.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible is a Swiss hit

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

We've just received an early peek at the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible here at the Geneva Motor Show. General Motors was kind enough to let us attend the final dress-rehearsal for its press conference scheduled for tomorrow's opening media day, and we've come away with a good look at the droptop C7 in person.
In the metal, the new Corvette Convertible seems somehow less avant-garde than the Coupe, even in Z51 Performance Package guise. That's not necessarily a bad thing - more of an observation. That initial impression may be because the C7's new greenhouse is one of its most prominent departures from Corvettes past. While we didn't get to see the top erected, there's no rear side window in the stock images that Chevy has already released, suggesting the C7 convertible's profile will look a lot like its C6 predecessor. And with the new power tonneau cover in place, there are also no rear ducts that come as part of the Z51 package (they've been moved under the car).
As with its predecessor, the tonneau is a handsome double-bubble piece, and the body-color "waterfall" element into the cabin between the seats has made it to the new model as well. Thus, the overall look with the top down should be a bit more familiar to prior-gen C6 owners - if you're one of those put off by the C7's new shape, you'll probably appreciate the convertible bodystyle more than the coupe.

2013 Chevy COPO Camaro announced with two new engines and manual option

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Chevrolet is following up the 2012 COPO Camaro with another limited run of the drag-strip-ready production car for 2013. Ditching the superchargers, the 2013 COPO Camaro can only be equipped with one of three naturally aspirated V8 engines, and other new features include the option of a manual transmission, new front springs, some minor styling changes and a lower starting price of $86,000. All cars are designed to abide by the rules of the NHRA's Stock Eliminator or Super Stock classifications, depending on in which series buyers wish to enter their Chevrolet Camaro.
Returning for 2013 is the 427-cubic-inch V8 producing 425 horsepower, but the new engines include a 325-hp 350-CID V8 and a 375-hp 396-CID V8. Buyers can select to purchase all three engines, and each will be matched with the sequence number of that car; the track-only COPO cars will not have vehicle identification numbers and can't be registered for street use.
Chevrolet is also offering unique enthusiast-specific options such as a COPO Build Book and the opportunity for owners to help assemble their car's engine at the Chevrolet Performance Build Center in Wixom, MI.
