1981 " Hell Camino" El Camino on 2040-cars
Salem, Oregon, United States
Here is your chance to own this 1981 "Hell Camino"! "Hell Camino" was nicely restored over a span of several years (2006-2009), as was featured in the TV show GEARZ. openexhaust.com/el_camino.html The link shows a clip of the show, and the entire restoration process. The build was beautifully done, and along with the link featuring the car and information on the build, I have 2 binders full of receipts and specs, that will come with the car. "Hell Camino" has a 350ci motor, a 350 turbo tranny (rebuilt in 2013) , with a B&M Ratchet Mega Shifter. Has a 10bolt posi rear end with Eaton Carrier; the axle shafts are Moser 28 spline, and the ring and pinion gear are Liberty gears 3:73. Has newer tires and rims. Also has a nice sound system. Even though the restoration was several years ago, she is still is in nice shape! She is a head turner, and sounds great! I took this clip on 04/30/14 youtube.com/watch?v=5QwWrPIFKrQ She still has the "Hell Camino" attitude! I've owned the El Camino for about a year, and had planned to put a 4spd in her, and put her back to the mint condition she was restored to. Unfortunately due to health issues I am unable to do so, so sadly I am selling her. Feel free to email me with any questions!!!!!! I do reserve the right to end the auction early as this car is for sale locally. Car is sold as is. No warranty expressed, written, or implied. Buyer is responsible for shipping and shipping costs, but I am willing to hold the car for a reasonable amount of time, while buyer gets shipping arranged, and I will help load if needed. I require a $500 deposit through Paypal within 24 hours of auction end, and payment in full with 5 days via cash in person, wire transfer, or cashiers check (cleared); SORRY NO PAYPAL FOR THE BALANCE! |

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch
Mon, 04 Feb 2013According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.
Chevy SS prototype spotted wearing Pontiac G8 clothes
Tue, 28 Aug 2012
Do not adjust your computer screen, you are not seeing the rebirth of the Pontiac brand. General Motors has chosen to use a G8 to disguise a test mule for the latest prototype of the forthcoming Chevrolet SS. The G8 was closely related to the Holden Commodore and Vauxhall VXR, the platform upon which the new Chevrolet performance model will be based. It should come as little surprise, then, that GM has opted to use the cladding from the former G8.
Thought the front clip of this mule is pure Pontiac, note the vents immediately behind the front wheel. That is a distinctive design hallmark of the Vauxhall VXR. Also note that this vehicle is right-hand drive, as the Holden and its Chevy counterpart will be very closely related. That likely includes potential drivetrains. The spy photos of this mule also reveal very wide rear tires, and rear wheels that do not match the fronts.
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.
