1984 Elcamino Ss All Stock 92k Orig Miles! Selling Cheap!! on 2040-cars
|
If you're looking for an affordable ElCamino that runs and drives with a nice list of options, this is it! with a small list of repairs, you'll be on the road and ready to drive cross-country! This is a 1984 "WHITE GOLD" edition SS with full gauge dash, tilt wheel, cruise control, completely intact and possibly working A/C, sunroof, a very presentable interior, a rust free bed that has been treated to RHINOLINER, aftermarket aluminum wheels [center caps not there, and I don't have original wheels FYI] LOOK AT THE PICS, THEY WILL LIKELY ANSWER ALL YOUR QUESTIONS! FOR THE STARTING BID, AND WHAT WILL PROBABLY BE THE FINAL PRICE- IT WILL BE HARD TO FIND A BETTER QUICK-FIX ELCAMINO THAT IS TURN-KEY! HERE'S THE "BAD" stuff, everything else that is good is very evident in the photos, but I'll mention most of the good as well... the driver side door issues: pull strap needs the decorative cap and screw, hinge pin bushings are sloppy, and outer door handle is cracked. DRIVER'S REAR QUATER has a significant [about 3-4" diameter] dent on the corner by the tailgate. RANDOM rust along the bottom edges of rockers, quarter panel, and some spots coming through over the rear wheel lips, rear brake line needs to be replaced, or possibly rear wheel cylinder- I'd bet on line- need to top off rear zone of master rather often- its last drive was about 25 miles and it needed a refill. Paint is about 90% original, with factory "WHITE GOLD" decals and stripes, some touch ups over the rear wheel well, can see in pics, wrong color gold spray paint..and it needs a new headliner, as with all GM's, THAT'S THE BAD, AND WHY ITS SOOOO CHEAP!!! Some good points to consider: all the factory options listed above, THIS WAS OWNED BY AN ELDERLY GENTLEMAN MOST OF ITS LIFE, USED REGULARLY, HENCE THE MINOR RUST. THAT SAID HE ALSO HAD NO REASON TO MODIFY ANYTHING!! All of the cruise control, A/C compontents/system, and all emissions control BS is there... the only modification is see is he or someone later, drill "breathing holes" along the top edge of the air cleaner. has a recent factory replacement "fake dual exhaust" 1 in muffler, 2 out, with chrome tips.
This car/pickup/ElCamino was daily driven until the summer of '13 when the brake issu started, the previous onwer had a baby, so between the brakes needing fluid and no room for a car seat, I bought it so he could have a deposit on a family car with no time to worry about Craigslist or eBay auctions, and now I pass the great deal onto the eBay public! None of the cars in the background are for sale, exc the Plymouth wagon and 57 Fury, those are, but only being stored for a friend. |

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 Corvette ZR1 to get 700 horsepower?
Tue, 19 Feb 2013Word has it General Motors may offer as much as 700 horsepower in the C7 Corvette ZR1. Motor Trend reports the next Corvette Z06 will continue to rely on its naturally aspirated 7.0-liter V8 engine for thrust, but the lump will deliver substantially more power. How much more? MT says the engine could deliver up to 600 ponies. That's a jump of 95 horsepower over the current Z06, though no figures have been finalized as of yet. Right now, GM is reportedly waiting to see what sort of grunt it can glean from the next ZR1.
The automaker has already made it clear it will resurrect the LT5 name for the new supercharged V8, and if GM is already pulling 600 from the Z06, the big dog ZR1 would theoretically offer 700 horsepower. Either way, the range-topping Corvette will be suitably insulated from its less potent siblings. Stay tuned. We aren't likely to see the Z06 for at least a year, with the ZR1 trailing along at some point there after.
Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
