I am listing this for Dad and put my 100% feedback rating on the line for him and this El Camino. In the last 2 years we are trying to reduce the number of toys he has , and I have sold for him a backhoe, Segway, boat, Polaris ranger, Goped, and a few other items. Now the El Camino.  He bought it at a auction and it was represented as a ground up restoration, well that was partly true, but I know he has spent a boatload on all the items he replaced with new to get everything working. A VIN number could not be found on the car by 2 "experts" (not me). So the NC DMV issued him a new VIN, and he has a clear title, not a salvage or rebuilt. We think the car was assembled from 2 cars, but I have no way of knowing. The emblems say its a SS396 but it has a 454 crate motor in it, and it's a rocket and drives great, everything works including the A/C.  Here is what I do know:

  • 454 
  • New wheel bearings, tires, springs and shocks
  • New control arm bushings
  • New water pump
  • New chrome alternator
  • New power steering pump
  • 2 new kick panels
  • New rear view mirror
  • New dash lights
  • New shift panel indicator
  • New brakes
  • New rear window
  • Billet pullies
  • Headers
  • New exhaust system
  • New A/C compressor
and much, much, more.  This car is easily a daily driver and is stored inside all the time. If you want to inspect the car before bidding, just message me and I will give you my Dad's phone number and you can set up a time to see it.  If you have questions, you will need to contact him as I am not with the car he is.
The car is in Tryon, NC.  

No Reserve!!!  We will not end the auction early, so don't ask!!!

These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky

Fri, 24 Aug 2012

It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).
Check out our gallery of discontinued cars above, then scroll down for more information.

The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"

Thu, 07 Mar 2013

Not including the women and men who built it, the 2014 Chevrolet SS has only been seen in person by a piddling number of people - fewer humans than would fill the gymnasium at a high school volleyball game. Not including the men and women who built it, no one has driven it. Even so, it is already saddled with two controversies: the way it looks and the way it shifts.
First to that shifting. Did we love the last Americanized Holden, the awesomely sportsome Pontiac G8 GXP, and its six-speed manual? Of course. Do we wish the SS came with a six-speed manual? Of course. But we'd like a toboggan to come with a manual transmission. We'd put a manual transmission on a weasel if we could because we're just wired that way; if it moves, it should come with a stick and a clutch. Or at least the option.
Let's climb down off the ledge, though. We haven't driven the SS and we have no idea how good (or not) the automatic is. And the Hobson's Choice in transmissions when it comes to sport sedans like the BMW M5, Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG and Jaguar XFR-S and, oh yeah, cars-that-really-should-have-manuals like the Audi R8 and Nissan GT-R and Porsche 918 and every single Lamborghini and Ferrari, for instance, hasn't stopped us from enjoying what is clearly the gruesome, dual-clutched demise of Western automotive civilization. Because in spite of our ululations at the dying of the six-speed light, we understand.
