Up for sale is one 1968 El Camino, a true american classic. An icon of American muscle car history. This 1968 El Camino is an original California car and still retains the original California black plates, they are both in great shape. Being a true California original, there is no rust issues to deal with whatsoever. 1968 El Camino still retains all of its original sheet metal as well. The floors, frame, quarter (bed) panels, doors, fenders, upper-lower cowl and firewall are all intact and rust free as it rolled of the assembly line in 1968. This 1968 El Camino has one of the cleanest original beds that you will find. Many of these were actually used for hauling loads and really show the effects of such use. This one is in excellent condition! This 1968 El Camino comes with a just plain nasty 383 cubic inch Chevy stroker engine. It is a full roller engine with a very impressive list of components. Down below spins a Scat crankshaft, Eagle Connecting rods, Ross pistons all tied together with A.R.P bolts. Inside side is a Crane cam with a full roller valve train. Chevy ported and polished cylinder heads fed by an Edelbrock tunnel ram intake topped off by a pair of Holley 450 carburetors. A shotgun style ram air scoop on top just looks mean! The engine starts with a new summit high torque starter and a new battery. Cooling is performed by a new 4 core aluminum cross-flow radiator and a huge electric fan. Summit fuel line system and fuel pump and fuel pressure gauge really looks fantastic. This 1968 El Camino comes with a Chevy turbo hydramatic 350 transmission with a B&M shift kit and a 2800 rpm stall speed converter. Both the engine and transmission were assembled early 2012 and perform flawlessly. The rearend is the stock 10 bolt unit original to the car. This 1968 El Camino was ordered from the factory with power brakes, power steering and air conditioning. The ac unit has been removed from the car. Entire interior of this car is brand new. Seats are by Procar, 5 point harnesses are by RCI and G-force. Equipped with AutoMeter gauges and a B&M shifter as well. Comes with a nice chrome fire extinguisher as seen in the pictures. This 1968 El Camino is very street-able. Starts instantly and is just a thrill to drive. Despite its looks, the engine idles fine thanks to the stall speed converter. All lights and wiring are working and in good order. Even the key buzzer and cigarette lighter still function. This 1968 El Camino has one of the best sound systems that I have ever heard installed in a vehicle. It is truly amazing to hear and feel! Alpine head unit, 3- 10" Zeus subwoofers and twin amps all tucked away in a custom enclosure behind the seat. This 1968 El Camino rolls on polished Weld wheels and new BF Goodrich tires. Has Yokohama's in the front. Turns heads everywhere it goes! Please bid with confidence as we have a 100% feedback rating and we here at AMCR intend to keep it that way.

As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
Scroll down for the full list of GM's million 30+ mpg cars as well as an informative press release.

Motor Trend admits, "This is an unfair comparison." But that doesn't make it any less fun to watch when they pit a Camaro Z/28 against the Porsche 911 GT3. The former has a 7.0-liter V8 with 505 horsepower and 481 pound-feet of torque shifted through a six-speed manual. The latter has a 3.8-liter flat-six with 475 hp and 324 lb-ft shifted through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. Yet those are only the little disparities – the big disparities are mass and money: the Camaro weighs 3,882 pounds and costs $76,150 as-tested, the Porsche weighs 3,267 pounds and costs $145,785. But they're both about hardcore performance, so MT takes them out on the street, to the drag strip, to the parking lot for figure eights and a skidpad test, and finally to Big Willow for Randy Pobst to give his professional assessment. Remember when a lotta people spent a lotta time debating Pirates vs. Ninjas? This is like that, only it's the "haul-ass good-time car" vs. the "track surgeon." Enjoy the debate in the video.
