Great El Camino Base
Standard Cab Pickup – Chevy 2 Door 140,000 actual miles located in High
Springs, Florida - 32643. Today I have a really
great deal for you! Of course you want to know as much as possible
in making a decision on this vehicle. My son needed dependable
transportation for his college years in December 2010. Without a lot
of cash – due to college tuition, but still wanting to have some cool factor on
campus -- he asked me to help him locate a Chevy El Camino. We are the 4th owners. You can be the 5th. Due to a local couple divorce, the husband's toy a 1986
El Camino – V8 305 engine – was required to be sold to divide the couple’s
assets. It was a local car - Mid-west in great original shape with
few owners. It had 112,000 original miles at the time – at an
excellent price for us then and that savings is being transferred to you now. Vin #: 3GCCW80H8GS914726 never has been
in an accident. A great looking CAR – a great looking PICKUP TRUCK –
the best of both a car-truck … CRUCK – some call these an Elky! Great Burgundy
original paint for 28-years old – absolutely no body repairs, no rust except for one small spot - minor surface rust from rock chips back rear tire - passenger side. Interior
Burgundy cloth, Front Disc Brakes – Rear Wheel Drive. See the
images. SALE INCLUDES a good SLIM STYLE - CUSTOM TOPPER Image #23 is of a similar topper - a $400 value. Let me know if you want a photo of the existing topper - it is in storage - fits like a glove. Also,
has a removable rubber bed mat. Ready to just drive or
fix up and show. Mileage is now 140,000. ORIGINAL 305 V8 - RUNS AND SHIFTS GREAT. A lightly used car - not driven in winter - no rust - a solid good driving car. No issues with under-carriage,
no leaks, no problems. AIR CONDITIONER WORKS NEEDS TO BE RECHARGED.
4 Speed Automatic transmission. For more information you can go to
this El Camino website. Your standard 1986 El
Camino - https://www.gmheritagecenter.com/docs/gm-heritage-archive/vehicle-information-kits/El-Camino/1986-Chevrolet-El-Camino.pdf The car has been a great
investment, and we have done all needed maintenance. Just in the
last two-years we have installed a new transmission -- which has one more year
remaining on its three-year warranty. Complete set of 4 new tires.
Packed the bearing in the hubs, and in June 2014 the engine had a complete
change of all fluids and replacement of hoses and belts – lights, and
everything checked and repaired. The repair bills will be given with
the title – in all over $3,000. In July the car was driven non-stop
from Missouri to Florida – with not a bit of trouble – it is reliable. You
can buy it - pick it up and drive it home – wherever that might be in the USA. So… you have to now be
wondering – SO WHAT GIVES?? Why sell a car that has everything updated, is paid
for and would be great drive for years? WHY???? Here’s why… My son worked hard while
in school to pay for his education and graduated with his degree in Science in
May 2014. He found a job and moved to High Springs, Florida – that
is why the car is now there. As a reward for
completing his degree, his mom and I offered him a brand new car for his
graduation gift and to get a start in life. He did not want a NEW
car – he wanted a MINT classic one – a convertible, with style, that would be
perfect for Florida. He has parked the El
Camino and now drives a low mileage - mint 1970 Cutlass Supreme Convertible a
real classic - purchased from the National Muscle Car Dealer – it was the
dealer’s personal car for his lake home. You might have seen it for
sale last month on eBay. Trust me jaws drop when that car drives past – I know –
I picked it up in Chicago and drove it to him in Florida. FYI - THE LAST IMAGE IS OF MY SON'S NEW 1970 CUTLASS SUPREME - NOT FOR SALE - INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY He doesn't need
two cars, so someone out there can have this ready to go El Camino. The funds from the sale will go to needed corrective eye surgery for my son. Do you have a kid in
high school or college that needs a good car? Do you need a
dependable pick-up truck? Get this CRUCK – ELKY now. I doubt it will last
long on eBay! I have a 100% customer
satisfaction in my eBay Buyer reviews. I want you to be Happy too!

Meet the mother-daughter team that's worked on almost every Chevy Volt
Sun, May 11 2014It's Mother's Day, and we're soft enough we love our mothers enough to share a new video from General Motors with you. In it, we meet Monique Watson (left) and Evetta Osbourne, a mother-daughter team that works at the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly where GM makes the Chevy Volt (along with all of GM's other plug-in hybrids: the Opel Ampera, Holden Volt and Cadillac ELR). The two work side-by-side and have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on almost all of those vehicles - nearly 80,000 of them - since GM started making the pre-production Volts in 2009. In a prepared statement, Watson said that she likes working next to her mom, day in and day out, and they the two are totally in sync when it comes to putting the 400-pound, 16.5-kWh packs into the vehicle undersides. They two can also share stories throughout the day, and Watson said, "The arrangement has absolutely improved our relationship." Osborne started working at Detroit-Hamtramck in 1999, Watson since 2006. If you're driving a Volt today, you probably have them to thank for doing a bit of the work putting your car together. See a short video of them in action below. It's Always Mother's Day for Detroit-Hamtramck Duo Mother, daughter install lithium-ion battery pack in nearly all GM electric vehicles 2014-05-08 DETROIT – For Detroit resident Evetta Osborne, every day is Mother's Day. That's because she literally works side by side with her daughter, Monique Watson, at General Motors' Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant. They have installed the lithium-ion battery pack on nearly every Chevrolet Volt, Opel Ampera, Holden Volt, and Cadillac ELR since production began. In fact, apart from vacation days and an occasional sick day, the mother-daughter duo has installed almost every battery pack since the Volt was in pre-production in 2009. The ELR launched earlier this year. All told – including Ampera – that's more than 80,000 electric vehicles. "We're a good team and our relationship is secondary when it comes to performing our jobs – but it's great to work alongside my daughter, said Osborne, a mother of five. Because the battery packs weigh more than 400 pounds each, automatic guided vehicles – robotic carts that use sensors to follow a path through the plant – deliver them just as the vehicle body structures glide into position overhead. The carts then lift the T-shaped packs, and Osborne and Watson guide them into the chassis and secure each one with 24 fasteners.
Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]
Fri, 25 Jan 2013The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?
