1973 Chevrolet El Camino for sale here. The condition would be considered ok. It does have rust issues because it sat for so long. Everything on this vehicle is original. It has the original 350 engine, interior, transmission, casette player you name it. The only thing not original is the carburetor. It originally had a 2bbl but the previous owner swapped it out for a 4bbl.
The vehicle does run and drive, however it will need maintenance, since it is approaching 100,000 miles I am sure it will need tune ups required for that mileage. I bought it with 90,000 and know for sure that it needs a new water pump. This car would make an excellent part car as the 73 models are very hard to find parts for. The bumpers, interior, tailgate etc are all original and in great condition I just do not have the time or patience to cut it up and part it out. Or if youd like to put some money into it and have it for a daily driver that is also another option. The vehicle has a CLEAN TITLE and is currently registered in California which is smog exempt due to it being older than 1975.
The original owner bought it back in 1973 and had it sit for quite a while until he eventually passed away. His family drove it for a while until they decided to sell it, at which time I purchased it. They kept everything with the car original and in fact still have the owners manual that came with the vehicle.
I am auctioning this car off to see it go to a good home. It is a great old car and I hate to see it scrapped now that I no longer have use for it and need the money. Cars that are as old as this deserve to still be on the road or given a 2nd chance but I do not have the resources to put into it. The bid will of course start low due to the fact that the owner will have to pay for transportation of the vehicle. I am located in the central coast of California so please keep that in mind.

Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs
Thu, 03 Jan 2013General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum. For more on the what to expect out of GM's new SUVs, click on the C/D link below.
GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.
GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.
