1978 Chevrolet El Camino Black Knight Clone on 2040-cars
Madrid, Iowa, United States
I am selling this for a friend. Bill is 88 years old and he says as long as youhave a project going on you go on! I did all the work for him and can answer thequestions for him. If you are really interested in talking with him I can giveyou his number and you can speak with him. Since the car was restored the carmay have 500 miles on it. When we got done with it he was scared to drive itbecause it did turn out so nice. The car is believed to be a Black Knight DealerClone! At the dealership they took El Camino SS and put Black Knight Decals onthem to stimulate sales. This vehicle does not have the Z16 on the cowl tag sowe are lead to believe that it was cloned at the dealership. During therestoration the car did not have the original 350 put back in it. Bill opted fora HO 305. This car is not sluggish and is very respectable. As you can see greatattention was given to make sure this car was restored with the respect itdeserves. All the way down to it's seat belt levers located in the doors,and yes they work! The car does have a little beefier stance than stock. Billwanted it this way. I agree it does look nice and handles well. New interiorpieces where installed with some reconditioned parts. Great attention was givento the spare tire area with insulation and a light installed to help with sounddamping and to see at night. The brakes and wiring harness was all restoredcorrectly and back to 1978 standards. As with all El Caminos the bed was a hugeburden as it was used. I decide to Line-X the box and I am very glad we did so.It looks nice fo

The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else
Sat, 16 Feb 2013The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.

Who sold the most heavy-duty pickups in 2012? PickupTrucks.com investigates
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Domestic manufacturers enjoyed a good year for heavy-duty pickup sales in 2012. PickupTrucks.com has taken a close look at exactly how those sales broke down between each manufacturer and between three-quarter and one-ton pickups. Ford sold some 67,786 F-250 Super Duty models last year with the Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD falling just behind at 56,359 units. The Ram 2500 HD came in third at 41,918, while the GMC Sierra 2500 HD earned itself fourth place with 27,616 deliveries. While Ford held onto the top spot in the one-ton market, Ram easily nailed down second place by selling more 3500 HD models last year than General Motors sold Silverado 3500 HD and Sierra 3500 HD trucks combined.
So, did GM manage to sell more trucks than Ford with its two brands? Very nearly. Ford sold a total of 119,338 heavy-duty pickups to GM's 111,555. Ram, meanwhile, moved a distant 77,583. But perhaps more interesting is the diesel take rate in this segment. PickupTrucks.com says 80 percent of all domestic one-ton trucks roll from the dealer lot with a turbo-diesel under the hood. Head over to the site for a closer look at the breakdown.
