This is a 1978 El Camino V8. This vehicle was donated to help animal welfare as we are a 501c3 Non-Profit Organization. This car has current tags and is good until October 2013. We also have the California required smog cert for CA transfer....Car also has 4 new tires. Car is a great driver and only needs some body attention. It was a show car back 10 years or more...but now needs 3 little rust spots repaired but with the custom paint job such as this....you could just repaint the upper roof and seam line at the bed...a solid color or the 4-way changing color paint. See photos and you will see what involved. This paint back in the 1990's was $4,000 per gallon and would take a gallon and a half to paint this car. Hence the total paint job was worth $8,500 when done. The interior is in good shape.
We are See Noahs Ark whose task is to help other non-profit's liquidate donated assets. Being a donated vehicle, we dont know much about this car, but it does have a passing smog certificate. This vehicle is sold as is. This vehicle's net dollars will be shared with the Ventura County Humane Society (a no kill shelter).
Winning bidder will be required to make contact with us within 24 hours to make payment and shipping arrangements. (Buyer responsible for shipping or pickup arrangements)

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
Refreshed 2014 Camaro confirmed for New York debut
Thu, 07 Mar 2013We've already seen leaked specs and potential spy shots, but the refreshed 2014 Chevrolet Camaro will make its official debut at the New York Auto Show in a few weeks.
Besides a tweaked exterior and the possibility of a high-output LS7 under the hood, we really don't know much else about the 2014 Camaro, but here's hoping for an improved interior, too.
In addition to the refreshed Camaro, Chevrolet will also be showing off the recently introduced Chevrolet SS, making its debut on the auto show circuit, and we'll also get our first look at the C7 Corvette coupe and convertible side-by-side.
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.
