1970 Ss 454 El Camino, Black Beauty, Auto, A/c, Cowl Hood W/silver Stripes on 2040-cars
Bakersfield, California, United States
|
I have owned this car for the past 25+ years. It is a rock solid RUST FREE CAILFORNIA TRUCK. The body and paint are near perfect and have been meticulously maintained. It is black and has the straightest body lines of any El Camino I have ever seen. Everything is in good operating condition including the a/c, heater, tachometer, cowl hood , and wipers. New battery. Engine has approximately 7,000 miles since rebuild. It has been on the dyno at 550+ hp, with 425 hp to the rear wheels. I repaired two small rust areas in the panels between the doors and the rear wheel wells when I purchased the car and haven't seen any rust since. They were repaired the correct way. There are no dents, dings or scratches in the mirror like lacquer paint. Car runs very strong, will not disappoint you. Power steering, drives like a dream, no shimmies, no shakes or wandering, just straight down the road. Motor runs cool even in hot California sun, 210 degrees. Multiple show winner. Bed is in perfect condition. Front discs, rear drums. Cloth bench seat, LS6 tachometer. Ceramic coated headers, all polished aluminum valve covers, air cleaner, a/c compressor, intake manifold and more. All stainless bed trim and badging are correct and in excellent condition. New bed mat. This truck will not disappoint you. Wouldn't be afraid to drive it coast to coast. The only reason I am selling this truck is that my interests have moved from Muscle Cars to Cruisers. I might be interested in a trade for Tri-Five Chevy in like condition. Lets Talk!

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices
Mon, 21 Oct 2013The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.
These cars are headed to the Great Crusher In The Sky
Fri, 24 Aug 2012It happens every year. We bid adieu to some cars and trucks that will be missed, and say good riddance to others wondering how they stayed around so long. Whether they're being killed off for slow sales or due to a new product coming along to replace them, the list of vehicles being discontinued after 2012 is surprisingly long and diverse.
CNN Money has compiled a list of departing vehicles, to which we've added a few more of our own. In the slow sales column, cars like the Lexus HS 250h, Mercedes-Benz R-Class and the full Maybach lineup appear, while the Ford Escape Hybrid, Mazda CX-7 and Hyundai Veracruz are all having their gaps filled with more modern and more fuel-efficient alternatives. Obvious exceptions to the rule include models that still sell in decent numbers like the Jeep Liberty and the Chrysler Town & Country (which will eventually be replaced by a crossover-like vehicle).

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
