1971 El Camino SS 454 Project, let me start out by saying how I came about the car, I bought the car from a restoration shop in Florida, I have been after this car for a long time now, the gentleman that had the car was in the slow process of getting the car redone when he passed away and the car has been sitting dormant in a shop till I was able to get the car from the family. The gentleman that had the car by my understanding from me and him talking at one time, bought the car from a local guy who owned it and bought the El Camino for the sole purpose to tow his LS6 chevelle to the drag strip, which the car still retains its trailer hitch that was used. The car in its present condition is a project, but a very great project for someone. The only rust that I know of in the car is a little in the bed, which you can see from the pictures. The floors are perfect from what I can see. The front fenders have one or two little bubbles coming up in them. But the best part is that the rear quarters have already been replaced, and where put in very well. So the little bit of rust left would be an easy fix for someone. The car features a cowl induction hood with factory hood pins, A/c, p/s, p/b, tilt wheel, buckets and console. But the best part is that the car is a factory SS 454 LS5 car, and I do have the correct numbers matching 512 block that has already been redone and is new wrapped up in plastic on my floor with a steel crank in it. The motor is standard bore and comes with a correct set of LS6 piston and rods. The piston and rods where in the motor when the car came to the restoration shop by my understanding. The transmission in the car is a Turbo 400, and I do not know if its the numbers matching trans, because I have not crawled under their to check. The rear end in the car is a 12 bolt, and looks to have never been taken out. The worst part of the hole car is that the cowl tag is missing off the top of firewall, I was told by the restoration shop that the tag was taken off by the owner, and I never got it from the family after he passed. I can look and see from the door jams and all that the car might have come from the factory a green color and had a white bucket seat interior. Most of the interior is still in the car, including the seats and complete SS dash, the tachometer and tilt wheel is still in the car. The Original shifter is still in the car but the console itself is missing. Under the Hood, the compressor and most all A/c stuff that I can tell is still their, as well the p/s and p/b setups. The car at one time was changed to headers and their still in the engine bay. The radiator is in the bed of the El Camino but the radiator topper is still attached under the hood and still retains the sticker that says 454 on it. This is a great project of a real car. And is going to make a amazing car when done. The car is for sale locally and is subject to be taken off if sold. The car is sold as is with no warranty. A 25% deposit is due within 3 days of the auctions end and the balance due within 7 more when the car is to be picked up or arrangements are made for the car to be shipped. If you have any questions about the car please fill free to ask and I will gladly answer them to the best of my ability. Thanks and God Bless Kody 251-454-5455 |

2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray order guide hits the web
Mon, 15 Apr 2013The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.
Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16
Wed, 06 Feb 2013The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.
The story of the 2014 Chevrolet SS: "Luxury, power, refinement, handling"
Thu, 07 Mar 2013Not 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.
