Up for sale is a 1970 Chevrolet El Camino SS-396, project car/barn find. It is a midwest vehicle with rust that needs a complete restoration. I do not have a build sheet or any other documentation, but it appears to be a correct "SS-396" Super Sport El Camino. Odometer shows 62,790 miles, but probably is incorrect. It has factory air conditioning, tilt steering column, power steering, power front disc brakes, turbo 400 automatic transmission, 12-bolt rearend, 396 cubic inch V-8 engine with Rochester Quadrajet carburetor. Interior has a bench seat with automatic shifter on column, factory SS gauges and tachometer. Radio is an aftermarket unit. It has the "SS" hood (without the cowl induction flapper). The front bumper is from a Chevelle, and is not correct for an El Camino. It has correct 14 inch "SS" 5-spoke wheels. The engine runs and sounds good. The transmission goes into gear, but I have not driven the vehicle as the brakes are not in working order. Please look the pictures over and ask any questions that you may have before placing a bid. This vehicle is being sold "As Is", with no warranty. I have the vehicle for sale locally and I reserve the right to end this auction at any time. I require a deposit of $200 via PayPal within 24 hours of auction ending and the balance paid in full within 7 days in cash or U.S. Post office money orders. Vehicle must be picked up within a reasonable amount of time. After 30 days, a storage fee of $30 per day will apply. Thank you and good luck bidding.

New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows
Wed, 13 Mar 2013While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.
Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506
Thu, 02 May 2013With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
