Today we have listed for sale a 1969 Chevrolet El Camino - a well loved, highly pampered, mildly customized and super sharp car/truck that is clean, rust free and very nicely done. This is one of two vehicles that we have for sale currently. They both belong to a gentleman who purchased a new 2014 Corvette and he's decided to let a couple of his toys go to help fund it. All of his cars are super nice, and if it needs done, (and sometimes if it isn't necessarily 'needed') it gets done. I will do my best to describe it so that you feel you know it, and to point out any and all problems (darn few). It's hard to show the total story of this pickup in the words I use, but I have added as many pictures as possible - I tried to use pictures that covered the overall feel and look of the car. I use lower resolution so that anyone in the world can download them with relative ease. Please be aware that this car is advertised and for sale locally, nationally and globally, and we do reserve the right to end this auction at any time if the vehicle sells before auction ends. This classic '69 'Camino is definitely for sale and definitely on the money price wise. If you are SERIOUS about the car - please call my cell # 503.580.6225 if I don't answer the first time - try again later - if I am at work I may not be able to answer your call. Please be considerate of the time. This is an amazingly clean turn key car with a ton of money spent on it. Buy it today and be the envy of those who hesititated and missed. P>

El Caminos - one of my favorite vehicles - and largely misunderstood. Is it a car? Is it a truck? Truly - they are both. With a full frame underneath, they are one of the most versatile vehicles ever made. A Chevelle / Malibu with a box in back. Good for everything but a back seat, but your Coupe can't haul what this one can! This is only being sold as the current owner has purchased a new 2014 Corvette. He and the previous owner have spent a ton on it - and it's ready for the next owner, who really needs to do nothing but turn the key, keep it cleaned and enjoy it. One thing I can't tell you, that may come up, is was this an SS396 car? The hood and door panels say yes, but the problem is that in 1969 there is no indication in the VIN that is was, or wasn't. I wanted to make that perfectly clear, so we are NOT calling it an SS. I will go through the vehicle and tell you what I do know. The cowl tag tells us that it's a model code 69-1360, a Malibu El Camino. The paint code is 67 67, which denotes the original color as Burgandy upper and lower (never had a vinyl top) Trim code is 755 (black coated fabric) followed by B80 B90 stainless roof drip molding and door window frame molding. The build date code is 05A which denotes first week in May production. The mileage at 09113 is probably 109k, and that's not bad for a 1969 vehicle. Under the hood we find an aluminum head, center bolt valve cover GM Crate ZZ4 350 (see the tag still on the oil pan) whic should be a 355 HP 405 lb/ft torque. The gentleman who originally 'hopped up' this El Camino was a GM parts rep, and had access to all the 'cool' stuff. The current owner added the Vintage Air heat and Air Conditioning setup, as well as the trick serpentine set up with all polished and chromed pulleys, small compressor, power steering pump and alternator - which are all upgraded. I would hazard a guess that there are very few miles on this engine. The carburetor tag reads 1904, and my guess is that it's an Edelbrock Quadrajet carburetor. It looks like, and probably is pretty much new. It has an electric choke. The intake is an Edelbrock Performer Air Gap aluminum set up. The air cleaner on top is a 14 inch K&N. The valve covers are Chrome GM ones. Headers are HPC coated Hooker Super Competition model and they flow into a pretty much new exhaust system with Flowmasters and a nice crossover setup. The sound is healthy, not too rowdy, but you KNOW that something gnarly is under the hood. An HEI distributor and Moroso Spiral Core wires take the spark to the plugs. Battery is brand new, two weeks old, and is an AC Delco Professional Series with 700 Cold Crank amps. There is a battery shut off just to the rear of the battery on the inner fender area. (the inner fenders are both steel, not plastic) This engine is beefy, has a nice cam lope and has gobs of power. The transmission is a Turbo 350 with just a mild shift kit, no hard 'bang' shifts. The differential is 'open', or not a posi. Power steering makes it turn and park easily. The brakes up front are power disc, and drums are out back. There is an upgraded sway bar up front and upgraded gas shocks all around. Wheels are Billet Specialties all around, tires are 225-50R15 up front and 275-50%15 BFG T/A's out back - the tires are like new. The car drives wonderfully - is solid, quiet and squeak/rattle free. Brakes don't pull, nothing funny or funky. You will love the exhaust bark - and sticking your foot in it a bit ever now and again is something you will enjoy doing. It pulls strong, and hard - and it's got lot of 'oomph' to put you back into the seat. This truck is a super nice driver of top quality. Inside, the interior is like new. Headliner, 80/20 loop pile carpets, sill plates, seats, door panels, weatherstrips, dash pad, you name it - it's new. The Vintage air keeps the inside cool when you need it to, and warm when needed as well. There's a Custom Autosound AM/FM/Cassette sending tunes out to a rear cab wall mounted Pioneer amp and into Pioneer 4 way 6x9's. Autometer 'Autogage' guages cover the oil pressure, voltage and temperature, and an Autometer rev limiter type tach covers the R's. The steering wheel is a 'sport type', that looks like factory, but I am not sure it is - and it's like brand new, with a correct vintage era center cap. As mentioned before - the door panels say SS396, but there is no SS insignia on the dash, so we don't think it to be, nor are we claiming it to be an SS. The interior is super clean, never been smoked in, and is like new throughout. One thing I like is that the shifter is the original one, and no aftermarket floor shifter - personally I am not a fan of 'em. You'll just not find any vehicle with a cleaner or nicer interior period. All the glass is good, side windows have been dark tinted (a couple of 'chips' on the tinting) - the windshield has been replaced. No breaks or chips. Outside - the El Camino is super nice again. The paint color is a base clear in a 90's Corvette Torch Red - a great bright red color with little to no orange peel, and a nice deep shine. This paint has been on for about 15 years, maybe a squeak more - so any issues would be making themselves known (there is one set of small bubbles at the bottom of one front fender - see picture) It's got very subtle flames in a purple pearl (some call them ghost flames) and all of the pinstriping has been done by Mitch Kim who is a renowned pinstriper of top quality in a light tangerine orange One Shot. His work is top notch and tasteful - some of the tastiest lines you will ever find. The floor pans are as new - and show no signs of having had any repair ever. Just super nice - and as nice as they come - you can see this in the pictures - nothing covered, nothing hidden - just honest and as the General made them. There is no road salt used in our area EVER, and the sheet metal you will find in our well kept native cars and trucks is as nice as you will find anywhere, and the plastics don't degrade as you might find in a hot, arid and drier climate. The bed cover is a 'BedCover' by Gaylords, it's a hard cover that is hinged in front, gas strut supported and it's lockable. Very nice, and color matched to boot. A rubber bed mat protects the bed floor - and the bed is as nice as it gets for a 45 year old hauler. There is no rust or rot in the bed. The bumpers are either new or have been really beautifully rechromed, and are both super nice. Trim is all nice, and some has been deleted. You will note that the tailgate has been smoothed, the front side marker lights have been deleted, and the front header panel seams filled. The hood, as mentioned before is the domed SS variety with the chromed grilles in it. The radio antenna has been frenched and is power. Grille is like new. We have not wahed, detailed, fluffed, buffed or rattle canned the truck in any way - it's just how it's been kept, and kept indoors for the last twenty plus years to boot. This is about as nice as they come for a driver - and the only thing better would be a full time show car. This is simply an awesome truck that you can hop in and drive dependably, cruise, show, daily drive - or just have fun with as you wish. It's an eye catcher and attention grabber and not for those who don't want to start conversations, nor for anyone who wants to be 'low key'. It's as nice as it gets - and I challenge you to find a nicer Camino anywhere at any price. This truck is better than any stocks or bonds and as good as money in the bank, if not better. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us and we will answer questions to the best of our ability.

Now for the nitty gritty: PLEASE DO NOT BID IF YOU DO NOT INTEND TO PAY! If you have zero or negative feedback - please contact us first.

2020 Chevy Silverado HD vs. 2019 Ram, Ford heavy duty trucks: How they compare on paper

Tue, Jan 15 2019

Last year was all about the latest in light-duty full-size pickup trucks, so this year, Ram, Ford and Chevy are launching the heavy-duty variants. The first out of the gate is the redesigned 2019 Ram 2500 and 3500 HD, and Ram dropped all the pertinent specs with the reveal. Chevy followed with the new Silverado HD in Chicago, and Ford revealed updates to the Super Duty at the same show. Ford hasn't released details on output, payload capacity, towing capacity or pricing for the updated Super Duty. As such, we'll be comparing the current Super Duty with the all-new Silverado HD and Ram HD. Both Chevy and Ram have revealed full specs for each of their respective trucks, leaving out only pricing, which we've estimated based on the outgoing models. You can see the raw details in the chart below, followed by extra information and analysis. Some things to keep in mind: These specifications cover all versions of the Ram HD, Silverado HD and Super Duty, such as 2500 and 3500 models, and all the way up to F-450. Specifications can vary widely based on engine, drivetrain, cab and bed configurations, so be sure to take a close look at the specific model you're interested in when you get particularly serious about buying. And of course, be sure to check out our car comparison tool if you'd like to look at other trucks on the market. Engines and drivetrains All three of these trucks offer gasoline and diesel engines, but only the Ram has two versions of the diesel. Starting with gas engines, Ram's 6.4-liter V8 has the power advantage with 25 more horsepower than the next-most-potent Super Duty, but the new Silverado HD's 6.6-liter V8 takes the torque crown at 464 pound-feet, nearly 35 more than the other two gas engines. The Ram is also the only one to pair an eight-speed automatic with the gas engine, whereas the Ford and Chevy make do with a six-speed. With diesel engines, horsepower is a weak point for the Ram. The Ram's entry-level turbo 6.7-liter inline-six is the weakest, as the only one with under 900 pound-feet of torque and under 400 horsepower. Even the high-output version only makes 400 horsepower, while the Chevy makes 445 and the Ford 450. But the tables turn with torque, as the Ram makes a best-in-class 1,000 pound-feet followed by the Ford's 935 and the Chevy's 910. Both the Ram and the current Super Duty diesels each get a six-speed automatic, but the new Silverado HD's diesel gets a 10-speed unit.

Jaguar I-Pace vs. Tesla Model 3 and other EVs: How they compare on paper

Thu, Mar 1 2018

The 200-mile club of electric vehicles is really growing. The most recent member is the Jaguar I-Pace, the company's first pure EV. It promises luxury, performance, style, and most important, good range. Nearly as recent is the Hyundai Kona EV, and while it doesn't promise luxury or performance like the Jaguar (it's also smaller), it does pack impressive range. With the introduction of both of these electric cars, we thought we would see how they compare against each other, and the other two big names in high-capacity electric cars: the Chevy Bolt EV and the Tesla Model 3. This isn't intended to be a direct, apples-to-apples comparison, as the four are quite different. If anything, they break into two groups: bigger and more luxurious, and smaller and less expensive. Then again, the number of vehicles with this electric range is small and comparisons to EV's with less range wouldn't be too kind to the other guys. If you want to learn more about these EVs, and compare them with other cars, be sure to check out our Car Finder and comparison tools. Horsepower and torque There is one clear winner here, and that's the Jaguar I-Pace. It packs a whopping 394 horsepower and 512 pound-feet of torque. That comes through a pair of electric motors (one at the front, another at the rear) that provide the Jag with all-wheel drive, the only one of these vehicles to offer it (at the moment). Altogether, it allows the I-Pace to have the best 0-60 mph time of 4.5 seconds. At the other end of the spectrum is the Hyundai Kona EV. It's front-drive, like the Bolt EV, and has effectively the same amount of horsepower as the Chevy at 201 horsepower, but its 0-60-mph time is almost a second slower. And the low-range version of the Kona, excluded because it doesn't go more than 200 miles between charges, is slower still. The Tesla Model 3 is the only vehicle with rear-wheel drive, and with a 0-60 mph of 5.1 seconds for the Long Range model, it is still very quick. Range and energy use Frequently, the all-consuming question with electric cars is, "How far can I go on a charge?" And to go the farthest, you need the long-range Tesla Model 3. It can go 310 miles. It has the added advantage of being able to use the network of Tesla Supercharger stations, though they are pay-per-use with the Model 3. Even the lower capacity Model 3, with just 220 miles of range, can use these stations.

GM promises to add 20 EVs and fuel-cell cars to lineup, paid for by SUVs

Mon, Oct 2 2017

DETROIT — General Motors outlined plans on Monday to add 20 new battery electric and fuel-cell vehicles to its global product lineup by 2023, financed by robust profits from sales of gasoline-fueled trucks and sport utility vehicles in the United States and China. "General Motors believes in an all-electric future," GM global product development chief Mark Reuss said on Monday during a briefing at the company's suburban Detroit technical center. Future generations of GM electric vehicles "will be profitable," Reuss said, but added it was not clear when GM could make all its new vehicle offerings zero-emission electric cars. Regulators in China and some European countries have floated proposals to ban internal combustion engines by 2030 or 2040. "We will continue to make sure our internal combustion engines will get more and more efficient," Reuss said. GM shares were up more than 4 percent in midday New York trading on positive comments from Rod Lache, auto analyst at Deutsche Bank. Automakers, including electric vehicle market leader Tesla, lose money on electric cars because battery costs are still higher than comparable internal combustion engines. The company offered sneak peeks of three EV prototypes: a Buick SUV, a sporty Cadillac wagon and a futuristic pod car wearing a Bolt badge. GM funds its forays into new technology using a river of cash generated by old-technology vehicles popular with its core customer base in the United States heartland. In comparison, Tesla has burned through an estimated $10 billion in cash and has yet to show a full year profit. GM earned more than 90 percent of its $12.5 billion in pretax profits last year in North America, amid robust demand for its lineup of large sport utility vehicles and pickup trucks. The company's profitable operations in China rely on consumer demand for an expanding lineup of gasoline powered SUVs. GM has previously announced plans to make some of its future electric vehicles capable of driving themselves in robot taxi fleets. The company offered sneak peeks of three electric vehicle prototypes: a Buick brand sport utility vehicle, a sporty Cadillac wagon and a futuristic pod car wearing a Bolt badge. GM collaborated with Korean battery maker LG Chem to build the Bolt battery system. Company officials did not say what companies would supply batteries for the larger fleet of vehicles promised by 2023. Fuel-cell vehicles will also play a role in GM's future, the company said.
