Up for auction is my father's rare 1959 Chevrolet El Camino. First year for the El Camino and unique styling for this year. Way nicer than the 1960 and later models. These do not come up for sale very often. This car was done about 20 years ago. Not a frame off or expensive restoration. Was built to be driven not parked in a garage all its life. Was given fresh paint and a decent interior. This car is NOT a show car, just a daily driver. But from what I have seen for sale for this year El Camino, it is very nice. 90% of the trim is original to the car, only replaced what was missing. I included pictures of some of the nicks and scratches that are on the car. Some bubbling on the rocker panels, and some rust underneath the car. Overall good paint, shows very nice. He had a fiberglass tonneau cover built for it, but can be removed easily. The skirts are not original to the car, so the fit can be a littler better, but still looks cool. Interior is in good shape, nothing fancy, again, this was done 20 years ago. Replaced the rear sway bar, fuel pump and tires. 4 new Hankook tires with about 60 miles on them. Starter may need to be replaced soon, but I am not replacing, I do not want to put any more money into the car, I want to stay married. Small Block 350 motor, runs strong. My father drove the car on Sundays, so it shouldn't have too many miles on it. Edelbrock Performer intake, and Edelbrock 650 carb. Turbo 350 transmission. As far as we know, the car has never been in an accident. Pretty straight car. My dad bought the car in Texas and was there(El Paso) for the last 20 some years, so we are assuming it has always been a desert car. I have posession of the car now, in Phoenix AZ. All in all this a great looking car that needs a little more TLC. Great as is, or can be restored to be a great show piece. Buyer is responible for shipping, I will be willing to drive the car to a local shipper here in Phoenix and surrounding areas.

Chevy's Android Auto update will reach cars in March

Fri, Sep 25 2015

Buying a new Chevy with the hopes of using Android Auto during your daily commute? You'll have to sit tight for a while before that dream becomes reality. The carmaker announced that an Android Auto software update will only reach its 2016 model-year vehicles next March, starting with those that have 8-inch MyLink touchscreen systems. That's going to be a long half-year wait if you're eager to get Google Maps directions through the center stack. The good news? Chevy is promising that all vehicles with 7- and 8-inch MyLink displays (ranging from the Spark to the Corvette) will eventually have Android Auto, so you won't have to drive one of the brand's swankier machines to get a smartphone-powered infotainment deck. This article by Jon Fingas originally ran on Engadget, the definitive guide to this connected life. Related Video:

Former Fisker CEO has some advice for Tesla Motors

Wed, Oct 22 2014

Former Fisker Automotive CEO and ex-Chevrolet Volt vehicle-line director Tony Posawatz has some words of caution for Tesla Motors. The long-time automaker executive questions the California automaker's long-term viability – and gives some praise Â– in a talk with Benzinga, which you can listen to below. While the all-wheel-drive D that Tesla unveiled earlier this month in Southern California wowed a packed crowd, Posawatz (starting at around minute 4:45 in the interview) says Tesla would've been better off taking the resources it expended toward that Model S upgrade and directed them towards speeding up the development of a more affordable plug-in. Perhaps a number of investors agreed, since the company's stock fell the day after the D was announced. Posawatz says Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of ZEV credits. Posawatz also says that Tesla has been over-reliant on the sale of zero-emissions vehicle credits in California for its earnings and questions whether the automaker will ever work at a large enough scale to sufficiently drive down costs and make consistent profits. Tesla CEO Elon Musk would take issue with this characterization. Posawatz first made his mark in the plug-in vehicle world when he was the vehicle-line director at General Motors for the Volt extended-range plug-in from 2006 to 2012. Later that year, he joined extended-range plug-in maker Fisker Automotive as its CEO, though quit that job during the summer of 2013 as the company was descending into insolvency. He joined the Electrification Coalition this past March. News Source: Benzinga Green Chevrolet Fisker Tesla Electric PHEV Tony Posawatz
