Numbers Matching 396/375hp (L78) El Camino SS with Muncie M22 Transmission in Excellent overall condition! This
Very Original El Camino SS 396 looks, runs, and drives fantastic! Its original Code 10 black paint was repainted
once back in the 90's and still looks great on the very straight, solid, and original body. There are some minor
nicks and scratches from limited use. There is a spot on the tailgate and the right side of the roof behind the
window where there is some slight cracks in the paint as shown in the pics. There are only 2 minor rust spots on
the car. A couple tiny bubbles below rear window trim on drivers side and about a quarter size area at the bottom
of the right fender behind front tire. That's it and both areas are shown in pics. Overall, this car is very
presentable and draws lots of praise and attention. The original black bucket seat console interior is in excellent
condition. The seats have a split on the bottoms at a seam. Door buzzer still works! All of the glass and trim is
in excellent condition.
The Drive Train is the Original and Numbers Matching L78 396/375hp Engine, Muncie M22 Transmission, and KF Code 12
Bolt Rear End. This car runs, sounds, and drives awesome! Engine does not smoke, overheat, or have any unusual
noises. Oil pressure runs between 30 and 60psi. I did note that the VIN on the transmission appears to have been
ground out and restamped (shown in pic) and I'm not sure why but it is likely a factory grind out due to a mistake
as transmission definitely appears to be original to the car. Dates are correct (shown in pic) and it works
flawlessly. Even the reverse lock works. Factory power steering and power disc brakes help it to steer and stop
with ease. Car has its original SS wheels and nearly new BF Goodrich T/A Radials.
The undercarriage on this El Camino is very clean, original, straight, solid, and rust free! Bed is in beautiful
shape as well.

GM recalling over 243,000 crossovers over possible seat belt defect
Tue, 17 Aug 20102010 Buick Enclave - Click above for high-res image gallery
The summer of 2010's recall hit parade continues unabated today, with General Motors having just announced that it is asking 243,403 owners of its 2009-2010 Lambda crossovers to bring their three-row haulers in for inspection. The culprit? Second-row seat belts in select Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, GMC Acadia, and Saturn Outlook CUVs have "failed to perform properly in a crash."
According to GM, a second-row seat-side trim piece is to blame, as it can impede the upward rotation of the buckle after the seat is folded flat. As a result, if the buckle makes contact with the seat frame, cosmetic damage can occur, potentially requiring additional force to operate the buckle properly. So far, no great shakes, but in the process of applying that additional force, the occupant may push the buckle cover down to the strap, potentially revealing and depressing the red release button. As a result of this, the belt may not latch, or in certain cases, it may actually appear to be latched when, in fact, it isn't.
Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it
Wed, 06 Nov 2013We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.
Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty
Tue, 05 Mar 2013We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.
