This is a 1978 El Camino V8.  This vehicle was donated to help animal welfare as we are a 501c3 Non-Profit Organization. This car has current tags and is good until October 2013. We also have the California required smog cert for CA transfer....Car also has 4 new tires. Car is a great driver and only needs some body attention. It was a show car back 10 years or more...but now needs 3 little rust spots repaired but with the custom paint job such as this....you could just repaint the upper roof and seam line at the bed...a solid color or the 4-way changing color paint. See photos and you will see what involved. This paint back in the 1990's was $4,000 per gallon and would take a gallon and a half to paint this car. Hence the total paint job was worth $8,500 when done.  The interior is in good shape.

We are See Noahs Ark whose task is to help other non-profit's liquidate donated assets. Being a donated vehicle, we dont know much about this car, but it does have a passing smog certificate. This vehicle is sold as is. This vehicle's net dollars will be shared with the Ventura County Humane Society (a no kill shelter).

Winning bidder will be required to make contact with us within 24 hours to make payment and shipping arrangements. (Buyer responsible for shipping or pickup arrangements)

GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue

Wed, 14 Nov 2012

General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.

There once was a time when Daewoo was one of the biggest companies in South Korea. It was larger than both LG and Samsung, and second only to Hyundai. But these days the name is all but gone.
