1959 59 Chevrolet Elcamino Custom Kustom Chopped Channeled Art 454 A/c Hot Rod on 2040-cars
Haysville, Kansas, United States
Here we have for your viewing pleasure a one of a kind radical kustom 59 el camino that I am listing for a friend of mine. Let me start by saying that if you are truly interested you should call GARY MEYERS. He's the builder and will be able to give you the most info about it. I'll give you a description of it from a fans perspective based on what I know from what I have learned from Gary. He started with the frame from a 69 chevelle wagon and then channeled the 59 elcamino down over it two inches which gave it a great stance and a comfortable ride. The whole car has been hand fabricated and not one panel was left untouched.. From the 2 and 3/4 inch chopped top with the dual frenched antennas on both sides to the pancaked hood and custom flip up side view mirror. Everywhere you look you will find subtle changes that made a dramatic change to the original body. Check out the custom fabbed headlight enclosures and custom fabbed taillight enclosures. Very COOL !!! Both the front and rear bumpers have been custom made from very thick plate and then chromed to be functional. Both the front and the rear of the car feature custom made roll pans that add to the clean flowing lines of the car. Look closer and you'll see the custom made bed enclosure that utilizes the roof skin from a van. Underneath that is the gas tank and ample storage for your luggage that you access from behind the custom seats. There's a lot to see on the outside so take your time and look at the pics closer. The more you look the more you'll see. The car has a great stance and an AWESOME PROFILE. Moving to the inside you will see that everything there is custom as well. The console is handformed steel that rolls around into seat enclosures. The console has a retractable cover and houses the shifter and other controls which leave the dash with a very clean and flowing look. You'll be riding in comfort thanks to the vintage heat and a/c unit that Gary installed. This is a driver and with that in mind Gary installed a 454 backed by a turbo 400 that moves the elcamino effortlessly down the road. It's rollin' on Diamondback whitewall radials and torque thrust wheels. everything is topped off with a custom R&M deep purple paint job with an awesome gold accent color. Keep in mind that this is a 12 year old build that has been driven. It's starting to show some wear and tear here and there but it is still so cool and looks so awesome that it was once again featured in a magazine. Because of the wear and tear Gary has priced this amazing one of a kind custom at a ridiculously low price so you'll be able to freshen it up or you could do what I would do and just drive it and enjoy all of the attention your gonna get.Well that about sums up about all I can tell you about it. Can you tell from my description that I love this car?? I know you will too so if your serious please hit up Gary for all the details. He can be reached at 316-570-8950. Buyer is responsible for setting up and paying for shipping but I will do what I can on my end to help you out. Payment to be made in the form of a wire transfer or cash in hand.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again
Wed, 13 Mar 2013One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")
2016 Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon recalled for opening console lids
Mon, Dec 28 2015The Basics: General Motors is recalling 9,200 examples of the 2016 Chevrolet Colorado with build dates between August 25, 2015 and September 24, 2015, and the 2016 GMC Canyon manufactured from August 28, 2015 to September 24, 2015. In total, 8,763 of these pickups are in the US, and the rest are in Canada or Mexico. The Problem: The console compartment lid could open in a crash, and the items inside the storage compartment might hit occupants during the accident. This fault puts the pickups out of compliance with the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard. Injuries/Deaths: None reported. The fix: Dealers will replace the console compartment door latch assembly with an improved part. If you own one: GM has not yet told NHTSA when the repairs for these pickups begin. Related Video: RECALL Subject : Console Door may not Fully Latch/FMVSS 201 Report Receipt Date: DEC 01, 2015 NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V807000 Component(s): LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES Potential Number of Units Affected: 8,763 All Products Associated with this Recall Vehicle MakeModelModel Year(s) CHEVROLET COLORADO 2016 GMC CANYON 2016 Details Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2016 Chevrolet Colorado trucks manufactured August 25, 2015 to September 24, 2015, and GMC Canyon trucks manufactured August 28, 2015 to September 24, 2015. The affected vehicles have a console compartment lid latch assembly that may fail to keep the compartment door closed in the event of a crash. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 201, "Occupant Protection in Interior Impact." CONSEQUENCE: If the console compartment door does not remain closed in a crash, the contents stored in the console may strike the vehicle occupants, increasing their risk of injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will replace the console compartment door latch assembly, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, or GMC customer service at 1-800-462-8782. GM's number for this recall is 16370. NOTES: Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
