Here we have my 1969 El Camino. It has been recently restored and has thousands of dollars of new parts and work. I will do my best to list them all but rest assured if it was worn or ugly it was replaced. The car was stripped to bare metal epoxy primed and finished. the front fenders, inners and hood are all brand new goodmark, The doors were perfect! the rear quarters were patched behind the rear wheel on both sides but that was it for rust. The gate bed and floors had no rust. All door seals, rubbers and window felts were replaced. All bed chrome trim was replaced new as well as back up lights and tailgate emblem, the bumpers front and rear are new as well as the brackets. the mirrors and side marker trim are new. The front grille is completely new with besels emblems and all trim. The interior headliner and seat were both good but the carpet, door panels and steering wheel were replaced with new. There were year one seat extenders installed as well. The engine had a light rebuild as it was in very strong shape. New bearings rings and a valve job, new intake, car, distributor, valve covers. water pump, hoses, billet pulleys, alternater, powersteering hoses, radiator hoses, heater hoses and an aluminum radiator were added. It is new under the hood! New exhaust from headers back - 2.5" front to rear with crossover and turbos, it sounds really good. The transmission was rebuilt with a shift kit and new stock type convertor. The rear is a 10 bolt non posi wit 3.73 gearing. The front brakes are all ne drilled and slotted with new calipers rotors and 2"drop spindles. There are new shocks all around and the rear has ladder bars added. The wheels are 17x8 front with 255/60 tires and the rears are 17x10 with 295/60. tires are nitto's Needs; There is a scuff in the passengers door glass that may be able to be buffed out? the dash was cut for a newer type radio and it needs one installed but I don't have one and like to hear the engine anyways. That's all I know of.. I have pictures of the restoration that shows body condition and all of the work that was completed. I will answer any questions before auction end but once you win the auction you own it! I encourage anyone to come check it out before you bid. \ I will entertain possible trades but no junk and chevy muscle type cars only.. $500.00 down via paypal immediately after auction end and the rest to be paid in cash when the cr is picked up. The car must be picked up within 10 days unless other arrangements are made. GOOD LUCK! |

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
Chevrolet donates 300 vehicles damaged by Sandy to help train first responders
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Super Storm Sandy took out a lot of automobiles in its path of destruction through the Northeast last October. The number surpassed 250,000 at last count, and a few of those were owned by Chevrolet - cars either sitting on dealership lots or waiting at port to be shipped off. Rendered unsellable by the water damage inflicted by Sandy, these vehicles were facing the crusher. But Chevy didn't send them there.
Instead, Chevy had a better idea: It will be donating 300 of these vehicles damaged by Sandy to help train first responders at Guardian Centers in Perry, GA. Chevy is the official automotive partner of Guardian Centers, which is an 830-acre facility that trains first responders in disaster preparedness. Junked cars are practically a consumable commodity there, where a full-size cityscape simulator gives trainees an entire urban center in which to train for all sorts of rescue operations and disaster scenarios.
Chevy says its particular vehicles will be used "in conjunction with role players for wide area searches, traffic congestion in emergency situations, counter terrorism, public order and mass casualty exercises." While grim scenarios all, we're certainly glad there are people out there preparing for the unexpected. While a zombie apocalypse isn't officially on the list of potential disasters to prepare for, when the virus hits, we'll be hot-footing it to Perry, GA to hang with these guys and gals.
GM recalls Chevy Express, GMC Savana over rollaway concern
Mon, 21 Jan 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall notice for a small number of General Motors fullsize vans due to possible rollaway concerns. On certain 2013 Chevrolet Express and 2013 GMC Savana models, it is possible to remove the key from the ignition without the shifter being in park.
Only 980 total units are being affected by this recall, and GM is fixing the issue by replacing the ignition cylinder and associated keys. Affected Chevy vans were built during most of November and December while its GMC counterpart was only built for a week in November. The recall goes into effect on January 23, and to find out if your vehicle applies to the recall, the GM and NHTSA contact numbers can be found on the official recall notice, which is posted below.
