How about it VOLS fans (or Longhorns fans, too)? What better way to show up at Neyland (or Royal) next fall that in this Classic El Camino in your favorite colors? Of course, we don't want to exclude other classic car fans, either. In fact who wouldn't get the biggest kick out of daily driving, or just cruising in this great GM A body unique design? The good news is that for whatever reason you buy, you are going to get a CarFax DOCUMENTED 88,000 MILE, NO ACCIDENTS, RUST-FREE FL/GA, great running and smooth handling car that is TOTALLY USABLE and elicits THUMBS-UP at every light. Let me repeat part of that; RUST FREE, that means none, nada, clean! The bright orange repaint was done after a strip to bare metal (it only measures 6mil) and there is only two small patches of filler needed to smooth out minor dents. The bed is in incredible shape - not only NO RUST, but no sign of there ever having been even the usual scratches, dents, and surface corrosion you'd expect. Look closely at the pictures; you'll see! The bed topper is a GM original option from what we understand and it, too, is in great shape and is very easy for two people to remove and reinstall. The engine is the original 5.0 V8, though the power-robbing air pump has been disconnected and an Edelbrook aluminum manifold and a BRAND NEW HOLLEY 4-barrel have been installed. The HEI ignition was recently replaced, all the way down to the distributor shaft for easy starts and very smooth running. Tires are very recent MICHELIN'S and the brakes are up to par. 

The cabin is very clean, smoke-free, and really quite comfortable with a split-bench seat and tilt column. Being a CONQUISTA, it features POWER WINDOWS and a REMOTE-CONTROL MIRROR (whoo-hoo!). The carpet is in need of replacement and the new one is included in the deal. But that's about all the new owner will need to do to make this car show-ready or cruise-worthy. AND you can haul pine straw from HOME DEPOT in it; try that in your 'Vette or custom A-body coupe.

In short, this is a NO EXCUSES, NO STORIES, straight-up car. It starts every time, hot or cold. Idles in traffic indefinitely without the temp gauge moving up. It will bury its 85mph speedometer easily and effortlessly cruise all day at that speed, the 4-speed Overdrive trans netting fuel economy certainly at least on par with a modern big SUV! The car does not shake or rattle, but it does ROLL! As you would expect from a babied 88k car, the suspension is tight (as tight as '80s cars get, that is) and the body sits properly on the unitized frame. Doors and tailgate shut with authority. The Chrome is excellent with most of the rubber trim having been replaced in the last few years. In order words - NOT A PROJECT CAR!

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General 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.

Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs

Sun, 01 Dec 2013



The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.

Race Recap: 2013 Indianapolis 500 better than Bollywood; all the emotion, none of the music [spoilers]

Mon, 27 May 2013

If the 2013 Indy 500 were a movie it would be the one expected to win all the little statues come awards season, and if it were an athlete it would have made spectators watch in awe as it broke record after record. And this kind of talk comes after last year's race was considered one of the best ever - the last lap hijinks in 2012 and Takuma Sato's crash leading to a podium ceremony straight out of a Golden Globes tearjerker.
But this year's race delivered more than anyone expected, from the 250,000 fans to the commentators to the IndyCar series itself and, finally, to the guy who hopped through a two-mile window on Lap 197 to take the lead and keep it until the end.
