This is a true survivor car that is almost all original. I was led to believe it was bought new in Portland but do know it has been here since the mid 70's for sure. NO RUST in the spare tire carrier and floor. This is almost unheard of in an El Camino but it had a canopy on it since new until a year ago. Was in an accident in 1992 where the previous owner rear ended a pick up but the car had no frame damage. Car had the sheet metal replaced and was then painted from it's original sand color to the brown. That is where the title got it's brand. Car does have a couple minor rust spots in the rear quarters, back of the front fenders and under the vinyl top, but for one of these the condition is un-real. Interior is original, wiring is original and un-touched. Car was a factory Malibu with a 307, turbo 350, no power steering, no power drum brake car that in 1999 Ron Tonkin Chevrolet installed a new crate 350 4 bolt main engine. Still sports its stock 2 barrel intake, Trans was rebuilt at the same time. Has had a stereo in it but the dash and wiring are un-cut. Deck was in the glove box but the doors and pillars behind the seat have had 6" speakers in them. The previous owner who owned it since the late 70's is still in Portland and he is who I learned the cars history from. He had Matthews Memory Lane sell the car for him some years ago. Car runs and drives like new. Had the complete front end suspension rebuilt, rear end bushings replaced and brakes rebuilt a year ago. I have a PILE of parts that include a Summit stage 3 air gap intake, 650cfm Street Demon carb, Patriot mid length headers, new HEI and much more. Has 15" Vette Rally wheels and almost new T/A tires. This is a fantastic reliable unmolested could be daily driver car or is the PERFECT starter for your winter build. Payment will be CASH, cashiers check or bank wire and the car and title will NOT be turned over till the funds have cleared my account. PLEASE contact me with ANY questions you may have, I will not hide anything and will take a pile photo's if feel you need them. SLIGHT chance of trades or part trades but lets be serious. Car is also for sale locally so I reserve the right to end this listing at ANY time. Yes the price is up there but will look at SERIOUS offers. If you think you need to do a "buy it now" you had better be prepared to bank wire the money within hours.

GM investing $167m in Spring Hill for new midsize vehicles
Tue, 06 Aug 2013General Motors has announced a large investment in its Spring Hill, Tennessee facility. The former home of Saturn production will be getting a $167 million addition to a previously announced $183 million, to cover a pair of new midsize vehicles. The investment is expected to create 1,800 jobs at the factory.
That $350 million is being divvied up for a pair of programs at Spring Hill. The first will take the bulk of the money ($223 million) and create 1,000 of the 1,800 jobs, while the other will take the remaining $127 million and generate the leftover 800 positions. But GM says the investment will cover "midsize vehicle programs." So what could they be?
The leading candidate in our minds is a new crossover for Buick, called the Anthem, that will slot between the Encore and Enclave, but will be slightly smaller than the Equinox and Terrain. As we've explained, the new model will likely be the first product to sport GM's new D2UX platform, which will eventually replace both the Delta and Theta platforms. Spring Hill is already building the Equinox, so there could be some credence to this theory.
Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video
Mon, 11 Feb 2013If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.
