With a recent repaint in bright red, its hard to miss this El Camino, and youll be struck by just how right it looks. There isnt an awkward line anywhere on the car, and the grafting of the pickup bed onto the Chevelles front clip is seamless, a testament to the stylists at GM. The paint and bodywork remain in good condition throughout, with decent panel gaps and straight sheetmetal that has apparently never been rusty; this is due to the fact that it was a California car until 2011 and it has been garage keep. The paint is two-stage urethane, so it'll look this good practically forever given even moderate care. The bed has obviously seen some use, but then whats the point of having a truck if you cant put it to work now and again? I guarantee youll be the only one at the Home Depot with one of these carrying your supplies. Thanks to its Chevelle DNA, the El Camino benefits from the myriad of interior choices available to Chevelle restorers, including the two tone grey cloth upholstery found inside this Elky. A subtle contrast to the bright red paint. Using period-correct materials and factory designs surely help maintain the authentic feel, but a few smart upgrades help make this a car that can be driven daily. Theres a alpine stereo head unit under the dash, along with a pair of Alpine Type S 6x5 speakers mounted in after market kick panels to deliver the sound, and the gauges are all fully functional. Other than the stereo everything is period correct inside the vehicle. The powertrain, which is comprised of a 350LT1 and the original 4 speed Muncie manual transmission with Holley shifter. Although there were no 350s available in 1964, it looks like it belongs there thanks to a coat Chevy paint, simple valve covers, and a chrome air cleaner. A Elderbrook 4-barrel carburetor features an electric choke, electric fuel pump, and pointless distributor . Not really intended to be a street brawler, the engine is instead a relaxed travelling partner that isnt afraid to work hard with great torque and a wonderful V8 sound from the dual tailpipes out back. It has 15 in Foose Grey Legend Rim; the tires are brand new BF Goodrich. With all the goodness of a Chevelle and the practicality of a truck, perhaps its time to revisit the El Camino.

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
Chevy to show redesigned Captiva in Geneva, will it come to US rental lots?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013Unless you're renting a car or driving through Orlando, Florida (the rental car capital of the US), you'll probably never see a Chevrolet Captiva - the rebadged, fleet-only version of the old Saturn Vue - on our roads, but this crossover is popular in many other parts of the world. As such, Chevrolet announced that the Captiva will be getting an update for 2013, which will be unveiled next week at the Geneva Motor Show.
Coming off a pretty extensive refresh in 2011, the 2013 model year will bring even more changes to the Captiva like LED taillights, new 18-inch wheels and revised fascias with a new grille and fog lights up front and inset chrome exhaust outlets at the rear. New interior features include heated rear seats, dual-zone climate control as well as available options on some of the upper trim levels such as leather seating and keyless entry and start. We have yet to hear back from Chevrolet as to whether or not the updated Captiva will be making its way to a rental lot near you, as the model is only available in the US to fleet buyers.
Alongside the updated Captiva, Chevy is also showing off its new Trax in Europe, where the subcompact crossover will go on sale this spring. GM's press release for these two Geneva-bound models is posted below.
2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers

Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
