1973 Chevrolet El Camino Estate Sale Very Original And Low Mileage on 2040-cars

Year:1973 Mileage:59707
Location:

Englewood, Colorado, United States

Englewood, Colorado, United States

For sale here is a very original 1973 Chevrolet El Camino that I purchased from an estate of an elderly couple. The vehicle is black with a tan interior. The car was repainted at some time in the past. The original color was a light metallic green (yuk). The paint job looks great as you can see in the pictures, however I would call it a decent "10 foot" paint job. It was done with pretty good care and all the edges, jambs, etc were painted black. The interior is clean and the seat was recovered in tan cloth at some point in the past. The rest of the interior is taupe, which is very dark green, almost black. The dash is cracked. The radio is an AM/FM cassette, but it is currently not working. The light come on, but no sound. I haven't fiddled with it yet.
The tonneau cover is in place, but it has some holes in it. It should be replaced. The wheels are aftermarket from the 1970's and look very good. The radial tires look almost new with plenty of tread.

I'm not sure, but I think the old couple bought the vehicle new. The mileage shows 59,707 and I would suspect there is a good chance that that is the original mileage, but I will not warranty that, because the documentation is not complete. The spare tire (G78-14/ 4 Ply Polyester) appears to be the original and has been "lightly down" mounted on a steel wheel. The motor starts right up and idles smoothly with no smoke. Interesting to note is the fact that the entire air pump system is still in place and operating. The car run, drives, shifts very well. It really is fun to drive and attracts lots of attention. I'm selling it as is, before I get hooked on it. I have way too many cars, but I couldn't pass up this beauty.

The vehicle is offered as is, where is, with no warranties expressed or implied. The vehicle is located in suburban Denver. All shipping costs, etc. are to be paid by the purchaser. Please email me with any questions prior to bidding. Your inspection, or that of your agent, is encouraged. Upon winning the bidding the purchaser must post a $500 non-refundable deposit by PayPal within 24 hrs. The entire balance is due and payable in 3 business days in the form of cash ,check or money order. If a check is used the vehicle will not be released until the check clears my financial institution.

Please check my feedback, I offer items as accurately as I can. You will not be disappointed in the condition of this vehicle. The reserve is not disclosed, so please don't ask. I never end an auction early, unless the vehicle sells locally. Bid early and often...good luck.

Lutz dishes dirt on GM in latest Autoline Detroit

Mon, 20 Jun 2011

Bob Lutz sits down for Autoline Detroit - Click above to watch video after the jump
Autoline Detroit recently played host to Bob Lutz, and, as is always the case, the former General Motors vice chairman dished out some great commentary. Lutz was promoting his new book Car Guys vs. Bean Counters: The Battle for the Soul of American Business, and talk quickly turned to his role as it related to product development and high-level decision making at GM. While on the topic of brand management, Lutz revealed a few rather interesting tidbits about his former employer:
All Chevrolet vehicles were required to have five-spoke aluminum wheels and a chrome band up front, as part of the Bowtie brand's overall image.

Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers

Fri, 11 Apr 2014



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?
