THIS IS A REALLY NICE ELCAMINO. THE MILAGE SHOWS 48,000 AND THE GUY WE BOUGHT IT FROM SAYS THAT IS CORRECT. WE DID A VEHICLE CHECK AND IT SHOWS IT WAS BOUGHT IN 87 AND TITLED BUT NEVER REGISTERED UNTIL 97 WHEN IT CHANGED OWNERS. IT WAS REGISTERED FROM 97 UNTIL 04 AND CHANGED HANDS AGAIN AND WAS NOT REGISTERED AGAIN UNTIL 2012 WHEN IT WAS SOLD AGAIN. THE GUY WE BOUGHT IT FROM DROVE IT A FEW MONTHS DURING 2012 AND WE BOUGHT IT. IT HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN SINCE. WHAT I'M GETTING AT IS THE MILAGE HAS A STRONG CHANCE OF BEING RIGHT. WHEN WE BOUGHT THE CAR IT HAD THAT JUNK 80S GM PAINT THAT ALL FELL OFF. THE CLEAR COAT WAS PEALING BAD. WE HAD IT REPAINTED (BASECOAT CLEAR COAT) AT A COST OF AROUNG $5,000. THIS CAR RUNS AND DRIVES LIKE IT SHOULD. THE AIR WAS WORKING WHEN WE PARKED IT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO BUT IT IS NOT BLOWING COLD NOW. IT MUST HAVE LOST THE FREON FROM SETTING. IT ALSO HAS A COUPLE OF CRACKS IN THE DASH THAT ARE COVERED WITH A DASHMAT. IT IS HARD TO FIND ONE THAT IS NOT CRACKED.( SEEMS TO BE THE NATURE OF THE BEAST) OTHER THAN THAT THE CAR SEEMS TO BE PERFECT. THIS CAR IS FOR SALE LOCAL SO IF YOU WANT IT THEN BID ON IT TO LOCK IT IN AND I'LL DROP IT LOCALLY. I WILL BE OUT OF TOWN UNTIL THE 27TH. IF YOU NEED TO COME LOOK AT IT I WILL BE AVAILABLE ANYTIME AFTER THAT. I TOOK A PICTURE OF THE VEHICLE REPORT SO YOU CAN SEE WHEN IT WAS REGISTERED. LOOK THE PICTURES OVER CLOSE AND YOU AN SEE THIS IS TRULY A NICE ONE... GOOD LUCK ROD |

Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla sells Model S 85 and 70D in Malaysia, Chevy Spark EV built using clean energy
Mon, May 18 2015Tesla will send Model S 70D and Model S 85 EVs to Malaysia for leasing to government-linked companies. Only those companies will have access to the models as a two-year lease, which will be imported and leased by Malaysian Green Technology Corporation. The plan is part of an initiative by the Ministry of Energy, Green Technology and Water to allow government officials and other influential people to get to know the electric vehicles and the benefits that come along with them. Most of the 120 vehicles available will be the 70D model, and the lessee companies will have the option to purchase the cars at the end of the two years. Read more from Paul Tan's Automotive News. Wanxiang is hosting students from Delaware in China as part of a program to learn Mandarin and visit schools and science and technology sites. Wanxiang, the auto parts company that acquired Fisker (which had manufacturing based in Delaware) and battery maker A123 Systems, will give the students tours of its solar technology facilities, among other places, and see what daily life is like for families in the region. The program helps students interested in science and technology to foster marketable skills — like learning a foreign language — that will help them get jobs in industries around the world.

The e-motors building of the General Motors Baltimore Operations complex has a new rooftop solar array and uses LED and CFL lighting, helping the building recently earn LEED Silver certification. The landfill-free facility also takes advantage of the 1.23-megawatt solar array on the grounds, helping it source six percent its energy from renewable sources. The plant has reduced its energy intensity by 15.5 percent in three years, and continues to work toward reducing consumption and sourcing clean energy. "We believe reducing our environmental footprint is good for the climate and good for our business," says GM Executive Director of Global Public Policy Greg Martin.

Driving Granatelli's turbine-powered 1978 Chevy Corvette [w/video]
Thu, Jan 8 2015With its curvy snout and feminine haunches, the third-gen Chevrolet Corvette looks like a dreamy – if dated – exemplar of Sports Car Fantasy 101 when viewed through modern eyes. This particular specimen circa '78, clad in silver and black paint with red pinstripes, appears to be a well-preserved example from the era. Apart from its low-profile Pirellis, slightly raised and slotted hood, spacious stance and a certain hand-painted descriptor alongside its crossed flag logos, you'd never guess there's a Space-Age propulsion unit powering this Coke bottle-bodied ride. Climb inside, and you're presented with aircraft gauges and big, colorful square buttons in the center panel. It takes a push of the "Ignitor" button, a tap of the starter button, and a slide of a T-handle for this nearly 40-year-old sports car to start sounding like Gulfstream G650 ready for takeoff. Yep, you're sitting in an 880-horsepower, turbine-powered Corvette, the only one of its kind in the world. Welcome to the whoosh. What The...? Built by Vince Granatelli, son of Indy 500 guru Andy Granatelli, this curious Corvette came into being by cramming a Pratt & Whitney ST6N-74 gas turbine engine into the donor car's lengthy front end. The same type of Jet A-burning mill powered Granatelli Senior's STP-sponsored racecar at the 1967 Indianapolis 500, where it famously led most of the 198 of 200 laps until a $6 transmission bearing failed, knocking it out of the race. The idea of turbine power usurping internal combustion was so threatening that Indy's governing body restricted turbine performance into obsolescence thereafter. A turbine-powered Corvette sounds excessive because it is. But there are also things about this 880-horsepower, 1,161-pound-feet monster that might surprise you. While it smacks of futurist exoticism and cost a then-dizzying $37,000 in 1967, the Canadian-built powerplant uses 80 percent fewer parts than an internal combustion V8 and will run on virtually anything combustible – whiskey, diesel, even Chanel No. 5. Though it's triple the length of a V8, the Pratt & Whitney beast weighs only 285 pounds. It's also one hell of a robust workhorse, typically serving as an auxiliary power unit for commercial aircraft or a generator in oil fields, where it can run for tens of thousands of consecutive hours before needing an overhaul. To adapt the Chevrolet for jet duty, the nose section was gutted and a sub-frame was built to compensate for the loosey-goosey front end.
GM does not have to turn over its ignition switch documents
Fri, Nov 27 2015In June the lawyer representing plaintiffs suing General Motors over faulty ignition switches accused GM and its firm King & Spalding of working together to cover up the malfunction. Bob Hilliard said that certain communication between GM and King & Spalding from 2010 to 2013, mainly focused on three Chevrolet Cobalt crashes, would reveal that they conspired in "burying what they knew" concerning the defect, and furthermore that the law firm broke rules of professional conduct once it found out about "ongoing fraudulent concealment" at GM. Hilliard filed a motion in a Manhattan court to force GM and King to hand over the memos, which were protected by attorney-client privilege. Hilliard said that the alleged ongoing fraud should trump attorney-client privilege, a GM spokesman said at the time that the issues in question had already been discussed previously, and that plantiffs already had much of the communication Hilliard's motion sought. US District Judge Jesse Furman ruled in favor of GM and King, refusing to order the release of the communication. In spite of finding probable cause that GM was engaging in a crime or fraud by not revealing the ignition switch defect, Furman did not find cause to believe that GM and King's discussions at the time were centered around continuing that potential crime or fraud. Saying also that plantiffs already had many of the disputed documents, attorney-client privilege should hold sway over the remainder. The class action case goes to trial in January 2016.
