1984 Chevrolet El Camino Conquista Standard Cab Pickup 2-door 5.0l on 2040-cars
Madison, Missouri, United States
|
You are bidding on a 1984 Chevrolet El Camino Conquista. It has a 305 ci V8 5.0L. It is the original engine. New valve covers were put on about 5 years ago. Rear brake lines were repaired in 2010 but more work is needed on the remaining sections. It has a 4 bbl carburetor with electronic choke. It has a turbo 350 transmission with 3 speeds. Should do 85-90 without any trouble. Suspension parts were updated with Moog center-link and new pitman arm and tie-rods. Rotors should be in good shape. They were replaced about 5-6 years ago.
Other updates include: -Steering box rebuild with new seals -power steering pump replaced -replaced turn signal/cruise/wiper controls -both rear brake drum cylinder/actuator with new springs and shoes -Valve covers/gaskets Needs restoring and some body work. Had ordered a few parts from honest charleys and OPGI. Would make a good project. Frame is in decent shape. Ball joints may need replacing. Needs interior work done. Dash is in decent shape save a few cracks around speakers. Driver seat is torn and adjustment cable is broken. Passenger seat in good shape with good material. Needs some TLC and I have neither the time or money to devote to getting in back in tip-top shape. I do not have a reserve, and all pick-up arrangements must be made by buyer. It is not licensed and is not drivable over long distances as it stands. Sold as is. I have listed as many updates, and problems I can about the car to give you as much information as possible. I'm not 100% sure on everything but I'll give you all the paperwork I can find on repairs/tune-ups. |

GM recalling 118K Colorado, Canyon pickups over missing hood latches
Thu, 20 Dec 2012General Motors has announced a recall of 118,800 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickup trucks due to the possibility of secondary hood latches not being installed at the time of manufacture. The affected vehicles are from the 2010, 2011 and 2012 model years, all of which were built between November 9, 2009 and August 28, 2012.
According to the official National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report, these trucks fail to "comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, 'Hood Latch System.' The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch." In other words, owners of these trucks could find their vehicles' hoods opening unexpectedly while driving.
The official recall campaign is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Dealers will inspect the affected pickups and if a secondary hood latch is not present, one will be installed free of charge. Scroll down to read the official NHTSA report.
Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
