Rare 1959 Chevrolet El Camino on 2040-cars
Phoenix, Arizona, United States
|
Up for auction is my father's rare 1959 Chevrolet El Camino. First year for the El Camino and unique styling for this year. Way nicer than the 1960 and later models. These do not come up for sale very often. This car was done about 20 years ago. Not a frame off or expensive restoration. Was built to be driven not parked in a garage all its life. Was given fresh paint and a decent interior. This car is NOT a show car, just a daily driver. But from what I have seen for sale for this year El Camino, it is very nice. 90% of the trim is original to the car, only replaced what was missing. I included pictures of some of the nicks and scratches that are on the car. Some bubbling on the rocker panels, and some rust underneath the car. Overall good paint, shows very nice. He had a fiberglass tonneau cover built for it, but can be removed easily. The skirts are not original to the car, so the fit can be a littler better, but still looks cool. Interior is in good shape, nothing fancy, again, this was done 20 years ago. Replaced the rear sway bar, fuel pump and tires. 4 new Hankook tires with about 60 miles on them. Starter may need to be replaced soon, but I am not replacing, I do not want to put any more money into the car, I want to stay married. Small Block 350 motor, runs strong. My father drove the car on Sundays, so it shouldn't have too many miles on it. Edelbrock Performer intake, and Edelbrock 650 carb. Turbo 350 transmission. As far as we know, the car has never been in an accident. Pretty straight car. My dad bought the car in Texas and was there(El Paso) for the last 20 some years, so we are assuming it has always been a desert car. I have posession of the car now, in Phoenix AZ. All in all this a great looking car that needs a little more TLC. Great as is, or can be restored to be a great show piece. Buyer is responible for shipping, I will be willing to drive the car to a local shipper here in Phoenix and surrounding areas.

2015 Chevrolet Cruze spied on its home turf
Tue, 23 Apr 2013The next Chevrolet Cruze isn't set to go into production for about another year, and we're just now seeing prototypes of the new compact running around here in the States. Not much more has been revealed since we saw the car blasting through the snow in Europe, but we can still clearly see new design elements like the larger grille, slimmer headlamps and redesigned taillamps.
Our spy photographers worked up a composite image of this Cruze prototype alongside the current model, and here, we can clearly see some big visual changes are in store for the new model. The 2015 Cruze's hood slopes downward more dramatically, the windshield is more heavily raked, and the roofline looks more fluid overall. The next-generation Cruze will ride on the new global Delta platform that will also underpin other General Motors vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Equinox.
As for what's under the hood, we expect the normal range of gasoline four-cylinder engines (both naturally aspirated and turbocharged), and the compact's new turbodiesel four should carry over, as well. Have a look at the full brace of spy photos in the gallery above.
Are you the 2014 Corvette Grand Sport?
Thu, 21 Feb 2013When are stripes more than just stripes? Follow up question: Is the product development team at Chevrolet really cocky enough to hide the next C7 Corvette variant in plain sight? This very recently spotted, and ostensibly obscured C7 asks a lot more questions than it answers, but there's at least some evidence to support that it might be the next Corvette Grand Sport.
The first and most obvious tip-off that something is up with this 'Vette revolves around those silver stripes. Obviously the stripes themselves don't necessarily denote a new model. However, when Chevy recently launched its "colorizer" website for the Stingray, there was no provision made for racing stripes - solid colors only.
Grand Sport exhibit number two is actually an incriminating lack of badges. The production Corvettes we've seen to date have all carried Stingray badges on their fenders, just behind the vent. The car seen in these images has no such badges, which is an intriguing omission on an car that looks like a production-spec vehicle otherwise.
New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
