1983 Chevrolet El Camino 5.0l 305 Cu. In. Very Original! Phenomenal Shape! on 2040-cars
New Castle, Indiana, United States
This is in 90% Great condition! The heat and A/C seem to work. The tires have 80% tread left there are no flaws in the interior and the headliner was just professionally redone! The radio is still the original AM/FM that it came with from the factory. The spare tire is in great shape and is a full size spare not the usual doughnut spare. There are no tears or cracks in the upholstery. I use this as a daily driver and have never had a single problem!! The engine is strong and was rebuilt at the 100,000 mile mark so its exactly what the 5 digit odometer reads. The transmission shifts smoothly and has never clunked or hit hard. the brakes were recently bled and a new master cylinder was installed. I have also replaced the coolant hose that comes off the top of the radiator. The next thing I'm going to replace is the choke pull-off on the carburetor which just makes you have to start it twice on a cold start. After this is done that will no longer be a problem of course. The bed was painted just like it comes from the factory, it has some chips in the paint but NO RUST!. The paint was redone about 10 years ago and has been mostly garage kept in that time. I recently took it to a car show and it placed 6th out of all the cars that were out there. This is a NO rust car which is extremely hard to find with an El Camino. There is one area where the paint cracked on the drivers side in the rear behind the gas door. There is also a dent on the passenger side behind the door right at the bottom of the body. When the weather is cold the speedometer cable squeaks but this could easily be fixed by lubricating the cable. There is also an exhaust leaks that is slightly audible but nothing major. When spring rolls around if the car is not sold I planned on just replacing all the pipes and mufflers. It doesn't need to be done but it was just something I planned on doing.
Hagerty appraises this car at $13,600! If you have any questions feel free to ask via eBay, Email (jakegorman27@gmail.com), call, or text (765-465-2370). If there are anymore angles or photos of the car you would like to see just let me know and I'll work on it!! |

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
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.
Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.
