The rockers need work. this car can be fixed by someone who is a auto bodyman. The car was sold by my parents while I was in the army. Last week I found it in a barn of the man who bought it. With my cancer it is just too much a project for me. The elky has a 235 six with a three speed Also has some extra trim in the back. The car is missing the el camino marker on the left side front fender.Side glass on the right door is cracked all other glass good."

 I bought this el camino as my first car in 1974. I dove it until I entered the army , my dad sold it.  I always thought I would like to own it again.  Last week I found it in a barn after 37 years and a friend helped me pull it out.  I was going to use it as a cancer project to keep myself busy. It needs someone in better shape than me to fix it.  The car needs a restoration to look as it should. floor pans rust under the headlights,left front fender buy head lights a rust hole,the back quarter panels, the bed behind the cab, The trim needs cleaned polished and repaired, The interior is there but the mice made beds inside, seat moves up and back, door handles all work has jack. This car would make a good project, and is a far better 59 than I've seen on ebay that needs restoration as  the car was in a barn all that time. I would rate it as fair condition.  There are also extra parts in the bed.

Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1

Mon, 13 Jan 2014



The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.

This is your 2014 Chevrolet SS

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Think you've waited long enough for this? If so, then you'll want to savor the high-res photos we've so far been given of the 2014 Chevrolet SS, the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from The Bowtie in 17 years.
We all know its our version of the brand new VF-model Holden Commodore, but what's under the hood that earns the appellation "performance?" A 6.2-liter LS3 V8 engine producing 415 horsepower and 415 pound-feet of torque. That's 35 hp and lb-ft less than the same engine is expected to produce in the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. Chevrolet says the sedan will get from 0-to-60 miles per hour "in about five seconds."
Shifting comes courtesy of a six-speed automatic with paddles on the steering wheel, while stopping arrive via four-piston Brembo calipers up front, a single sliding piston in back. The forged aluminum wheels are 19-inchers all around, each set supporting right around 50 percent of the sedan's weight, and the aluminum hood and trunk are meant to keep the center of gravity low.

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
