Hello, Up for auction is a 1971 Chevrolet Elcamino Project. This is a Non A/C car. This car was pulled out of a barn after sitting for 28 years. it does not run but the engine does turn over by hand. The couple i bough it from assured me it was a perfect running car when it was parked.so I would think a good tank cleaning and fresh gas it should fire right up. It has the original 350 with a turbo 350 Trans. Also has a 12 bolt posi rear end. It does have 8" corvette Rally wheels. One does need a tire that's why there is a cragar on in the pictures. The car will need a complete restoration to be perfect. However it is a solid one to start with. The body is in really good shape for the year. It has a really nice vinyl top. The bed has no rust in it. Front fenders are a little soft at the bottom and passenger fender appears to have some filler in it. The interior is in pretty good shape. The dash has no cracks and with a good wipe down it would look great. The door panels are in nice shape. the bucket seats are not original to the car. We believe they are out of a cuda The carpet is in good shape. the only thing the interior really needs is a good cleaning and a head liner. The headliner is there its just ripped. Underside of the car is pretty much solid besides a rust spot the size of a quarter on the passenger side. The frame on this does have rust where the rear trailing arms connect. when I noticed this I started looking for a good frame to put under it. I found another 71 that was out of California and was pretty much a parts car though solid. So in addition to the red and black 71 you get a ton of extra parts. Most important is the frame. it is a complete rolling rust free frame. It does have the front disc break set up on it. The red one has drums in the front so that is a plus when its switched over. The extra frame also has a 10 bolt rear end. I have made a list of the extra parts included with the sale. and have taken pictures of everything. So with this sale you get the complete Red and Black 71 and all these extra parts:
1 Complete rolling frame with disc breaks and break booster/Master cylinder & 10 bolt rear end.

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.
GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title
Thu, 12 Sep 2013General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.
2014 Chevy Silverado High Country spied wearing trappings of new luxury trim
Wed, 03 Apr 2013Spy photographers have spotted the new Chevrolet Silverado High Country and GMC Sierra Denali out on public streets for a little testing. From the looks of things, the Silverado will receive a much-differentiated front fascia along with special badges and those honking 20-inch chrome wheels. Expect to find a more posh interior as well. Likewise, the Sierra Denali will wear a tweaked nose with the familiar Denali bling. The one of the GMC trucks spotted here rolls on 21-inch gunmetal wheels instead of the 20-inch chrome pieces of the High Country.
Word has it both trucks will go on sale after the Texas State Fair this summer. While General Motors hasn't said for certain what we can expect to find under the hood, we'd be surprised to see anything outside of the range of engines found in the standard Silverado and Sierra models. That means buyers should be able to get their hands on the efficient, 23-miles per gallon 5.3-liter V8.
