1970 Chevrolet El Camino Custom. This is an awesome car that has recently been redone... The car has went through a lot of updates... It is an original A/C car. The prior owner done away with it when the motor was redone. It has a great running 350 with a slight cam. Aluminum radiator with electric/automatic fan. New dual exhaust out of new ceramic coated headers... Runs and sounds great. It's got a great sound without being obnoxious. New wheels and tires with a fresh alignment on front end. The inside originally was brown with the bench seat. I changed it to black. The interior has completely been redone. New dash pad, door panels, carpet, headliner, seats, custom console with storage, cup holders, Ipod/cd player, new speaker kit on backboard. Additional hidden storage in backboard as well. All new weatherstripping and headliner lace all around. New steering wheel, A pillar tach. custom gauge cluster in dash for easy visibility. Body matching paint carried through the cab. New floor mats, door handles, window cranks, etc. Tinted Windows. Several drivetrain parts are also new... New A arms, sway bar bushings, etc. Everything that was wore out and needed replaced was replaced... Reese receiver with 7 plug wiring harness. New chrome all around, bumpers, mirrors, door handles, bed rails, window trims (front,sides, and back, etc. There was some minimal rust on each side of the bed on the rockers. These 2 areas (1 on each side) was cut out and new metal welded in. The car originally had a vinyl top. When I bought it, it was shot. I elected to remove it and paint the roof. The roof did have typical surface rust, it was ground down, sealed and finished. I installed a new SS hood, new SS grill and badges. I removed the reverse lights, and the rear badge from the tailgate to make a nice, clean & smooth rear end. The bed is black rhino lined. The body work was done and finished off with a burnt orange/copper color accented with dark charcoal grey racing stripes on hood and tailgate. This car is a real head turner... A lot of work and money was spent on this beauty and I am very proud of it but am moving onto a 48 Ford pickup project. This is a solid car that is fun to drive, rides great, and is pretty quick. Just get in and drive... I know there is a lot of parts that were replaced that I'm failing to mention. The side trim is original with new mounting clips. I also have a few misc. items and a small amount of paint to go with the car along with a very nice car cover made for the car. I'm sure if you're interested, you have questions... My name is Shane and can be reached at 765-661-6227. The car is located in Warren, Indiana. We are roughly 30 minutes south of Ft. Wayne and an hour north of Indianapolis right off of I69. This car is for sale locally as well.

Are you the 2014 Corvette Grand Sport?
Thu, 21 Feb 2013When are stripes more than just stripes? Follow up question: Is the product development team at Chevrolet really cocky enough to hide the next C7 Corvette variant in plain sight? This very recently spotted, and ostensibly obscured C7 asks a lot more questions than it answers, but there's at least some evidence to support that it might be the next Corvette Grand Sport.
The first and most obvious tip-off that something is up with this 'Vette revolves around those silver stripes. Obviously the stripes themselves don't necessarily denote a new model. However, when Chevy recently launched its "colorizer" website for the Stingray, there was no provision made for racing stripes - solid colors only.
Grand Sport exhibit number two is actually an incriminating lack of badges. The production Corvettes we've seen to date have all carried Stingray badges on their fenders, just behind the vent. The car seen in these images has no such badges, which is an intriguing omission on an car that looks like a production-spec vehicle otherwise.
Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
Why does the Corvette Stingray have so many vents? Here's why
Sun, 27 Jan 2013Just looking at the new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, it's not hard to see that the car's design was created with aerodynamics at the forefront, but Chevrolet designers point out exactly what went into designing the iconic coupe in a pair of recently released videos. The videos show the Corvette going through early design phases, including clay models and wind tunnel tests, as well as talking to the car's chief engineer, Tadge Juechter.
Both videos help explain various aspects of the C7 Corvette, but it's the aero tuning of the car that is most interesting. This includes extra attention paid to the lower air dam and vented hood to help reduce drag and lift, while the rear quarter inlets are for differential and transmission cooling. Juechter said that some of these aero-tuned elements were inspired from GM's involvement in racing.
If you have about five minutes and you can't get enough information about the new 'Vette, then check out the videos posted below.
