Very nice pro street el camino with lots of extras!! The wheels and tires are approximately 5 yrs old, paint approximately 9. Weld wheels with Mickey Thompson pro 33x19.5x15 on the rear 205/70R15 on front. The engine had a complete overhaul in 2010, fresh 30 over 350 with eagle crank, rods and speed pro flat top forged pistons. The cam and lifters are lunati (hydraulic). Two edelbrock 500 cfm carbs. MSD 6al box and distributor get the fire hot. T10 four speed with a center force clutch kit and blow proof bell housing. The rear end is a Dana 60 with 456 gears and strange axels. Also has drive shaft loop. Coil cover shocks hold up the rear and ladder bar set up makes it hook. Linelock (for burnouts) in center console. Very well built car, will handle almost any horse power, full exhaust with flow masters. This is not a show car, there are a few knicks and dings nothing that stands out. The bed has the most scratches and the seams have been sealed and touched up. The factory gauges are not hooked up, all the lights, turn signals, brake lights, wipers work. The speedometer and oil work, but not tach or temp or fuel gauge. It has a fuel cell so just pop the cap and check fluid, pretty simple. The two door panels have small knicks in plastic panel see pics for further detail. Body has no rust. This is a street legal vehicle!!! I am selling this for my dad, he is 70 yrs old and bought this car as a package deal with a 67 Camaro, he is not a drag car guy, he has owned this car since 2010 and has only driven around small town, no drag strips. it is a clean car. On the overhauled motor there is approximately only 1500 miles. Please only serious inquires only. No spam or trades Thanks for looking |

More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1
Thu, 28 Feb 2013During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.
Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues
Wed, 28 Dec 2011'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
