For sale here is a very original 1973 Chevrolet El Camino that I purchased from an estate of an elderly couple. The vehicle is black with a tan interior. The car was repainted at some time in the past. The original color was a light metallic green (yuk). The paint job looks great as you can see in the pictures, however I would call it a decent "10 foot" paint job. It was done with pretty good care and all the edges, jambs, etc were painted black. The interior is clean and the seat was recovered in tan cloth at some point in the past. The rest of the interior is taupe, which is very dark green, almost black. The dash is cracked. The radio is an AM/FM cassette, but it is currently not working. The light come on, but no sound. I haven't fiddled with it yet.
The tonneau cover is in place, but it has some holes in it. It should be replaced. The wheels are aftermarket from the 1970's and look very good. The radial tires look almost new with plenty of tread.

I'm not sure, but I think the old couple bought the vehicle new. The mileage shows 59,707 and I would suspect there is a good chance that that is the original mileage, but I will not warranty that, because the documentation is not complete. The spare tire (G78-14/ 4 Ply Polyester) appears to be the original and has been "lightly down" mounted on a steel wheel. The motor starts right up and idles smoothly with no smoke. Interesting to note is the fact that the entire air pump system is still in place and operating. The car run, drives, shifts very well. It really is fun to drive and attracts lots of attention. I'm selling it as is, before I get hooked on it. I have way too many cars, but I couldn't pass up this beauty.

The vehicle is offered as is, where is, with no warranties expressed or implied. The vehicle is located in suburban Denver. All shipping costs, etc. are to be paid by the purchaser. Please email me with any questions prior to bidding. Your inspection, or that of your agent, is encouraged. Upon winning the bidding the purchaser must post a $500 non-refundable deposit by PayPal within 24 hrs. The entire balance is due and payable in 3 business days in the form of cash ,check or money order. If a check is used the vehicle will not be released until the check clears my financial institution.

Please check my feedback, I offer items as accurately as I can. You will not be disappointed in the condition of this vehicle. The reserve is not disclosed, so please don't ask. I never end an auction early, unless the vehicle sells locally. Bid early and often...good luck.

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.

Chevy Gives World Series MVP Madison Bumgarner A Recalled Truck

Thu, Oct 30 2014

Last night must have seemed like a dream come true for San Francisco Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner. He helped his team win its third World Series Championship in four years, earned MVP status and was given a brand new 2015 Chevrolet Colorado. Bumgarner might want to hold off on taking a victory lap in his new truck however. The Colorado is currently under recall. General Motors issued a stop-delivery order earlier this month to fix the truck's air bag connectors, which were wired improperly during the manufacturing process. The faulty wiring can cause the system to deploy incorrectly. Only 138 customers have received their Chevrolet trucks, the rest were caught and repaired either in the plant or on their way to dealerships and show rooms. Recalls Chevrolet world series

Jaguar I-Pace vs. Tesla Model 3 and other EVs: How they compare on paper

Thu, Mar 1 2018

The 200-mile club of electric vehicles is really growing. The most recent member is the Jaguar I-Pace, the company's first pure EV. It promises luxury, performance, style, and most important, good range. Nearly as recent is the Hyundai Kona EV, and while it doesn't promise luxury or performance like the Jaguar (it's also smaller), it does pack impressive range. With the introduction of both of these electric cars, we thought we would see how they compare against each other, and the other two big names in high-capacity electric cars: the Chevy Bolt EV and the Tesla Model 3. This isn't intended to be a direct, apples-to-apples comparison, as the four are quite different. If anything, they break into two groups: bigger and more luxurious, and smaller and less expensive. Then again, the number of vehicles with this electric range is small and comparisons to EV's with less range wouldn't be too kind to the other guys. If you want to learn more about these EVs, and compare them with other cars, be sure to check out our Car Finder and comparison tools. Horsepower and torque There is one clear winner here, and that's the Jaguar I-Pace. It packs a whopping 394 horsepower and 512 pound-feet of torque. That comes through a pair of electric motors (one at the front, another at the rear) that provide the Jag with all-wheel drive, the only one of these vehicles to offer it (at the moment). Altogether, it allows the I-Pace to have the best 0-60 mph time of 4.5 seconds. At the other end of the spectrum is the Hyundai Kona EV. It's front-drive, like the Bolt EV, and has effectively the same amount of horsepower as the Chevy at 201 horsepower, but its 0-60-mph time is almost a second slower. And the low-range version of the Kona, excluded because it doesn't go more than 200 miles between charges, is slower still. The Tesla Model 3 is the only vehicle with rear-wheel drive, and with a 0-60 mph of 5.1 seconds for the Long Range model, it is still very quick. Range and energy use Frequently, the all-consuming question with electric cars is, "How far can I go on a charge?" And to go the farthest, you need the long-range Tesla Model 3. It can go 310 miles. It has the added advantage of being able to use the network of Tesla Supercharger stations, though they are pay-per-use with the Model 3. Even the lower capacity Model 3, with just 220 miles of range, can use these stations.
