3 DAY AUCTION ONLY!!!!!! This is relisted because the last winning bidder says they didn't realize how great the distance would be to come to pick it up so that being said PLEASE make sure you can pick this up or have it shipped BEFORE bidding. This is a 1974 GMC SPRINT which we all know is the same as the Elcamino. It is a running driving project car. It can be made into a road worthy daily driver with just checking it out and fixing a few minor things or redo it and make an extra nice car. This car has been off the road quite awhile so it needs checking over before putting it on the road so that being said it will need to be hauled to your location for this purpose. The engine is a good running 350 with a turbo 350 trans which seems to shift fine. We ran it and tried the trans while it was sitting on stands in the garage only because there isnt any license or insurance on it. This car would be an easy fix for someone that wants an Elcamino or Sprint but doesnt want to invest a lot of money. With a little minor work you can make it a daily driver and work on updating it as you have the time and money. The body on this car is pretty good but it does have the usual rust underneath as most of them this body style did. It also has weak front floor pans and the rear ones will need work immediately. These can be repaired with a simple patch or replace them with new panels depending on how nice you want to make it. The pics show red primer on parts of the car, some of the places look to have been body worked and some of the places are just surface rust primed to keep the rust down. There are no holes showing other than a very narrow section in the bed floor, think theres a pic of it. Its not major, would be an easy fix. The doors dont seem to have any rust thru on the outside and the bottoms of them are pretty good with surface rust mostly. Fenders are showing a little primer on them but I think thats mostly surface rust also as they look pretty solid. Quarter panels have had some work done on them I think but theres no rust showing through yet. The tailgate has no rust thru, just surface rust and a few dings. The tires all hold air but are about worn out. The wheels are a nice set of rallys with 2 of them missing the trim ring. The front bumper is pretty good with some chrome peeling. The rear bumper is bent up a little but ok for a driver. The interior is driver quality. Dash pad is cracked but the door panels are both pretty decent, tops and bottoms. The seat is pretty good also. Carpet isnt much but thats a cheap fix. The car has a tilt wheel and it has a little play in it as do a lot of the GM vehicles. Its an easy fix by just tightening 3 bolts inside it. The car also has what seems to be all the air conditioning parts on it although its going to need charged. The frame is in great condition. This is a good project car guys as it wont take much to get it on the road. I have a very fair buy it now price on this so dont miss out. Remember this is a 3 DAY AUCTION ONLY!!!!!! If you have any questions please ask before bidding. If you have less than 10 positive feedback you must contact me before bidding. Sorry about that but there seems to be more and more non paying bidders on here each day that just want to mess up your auction. Also the car is listed locally so I reserve the right to end the auction only. A lot of my auctions do end early so if you want the car dont wait around and maybe miss out. Also remember when the reserve is met the buy it now goes away. I require a nonrefundable $500 deposit at auctions end and the balance in full within 3 days. Delivery is possible depending on your location. I have a friend going to Knoxville TN next weekend so if your in that area and need it delivered he can do it for a good price. Checkout my feedback guys as its well over 500 and all positive so rest assure your dealing with an honest ebayer. You dont get great feedback like that if you lie and cheat people, we tell it like it is. Also the car can sit here a while you arrange shipping as long as its paid for according to the auction terms. Thanks for reading my novel and good luck should you decide to bid on this gret 1974 GMC Sprint.

Forgot to put in the listing that the windshield has a crack on the passenger side. These windshields are in the salvage yards for $50. Just wanted to mention this so theres no question later. Thanks

On Apr-29-13 at 16:09:52 PDT, seller added the following information:

I thought I had covered everything in the listing but with several questions about a few things let me try again. The car has been off the road awhile and its going to need checked out real good all over before putting it on the road. The brakes work but are very weak. The engine starts right up and sounds good although sometimes the carb wants to try and flood but not everytime. It does run!!!!! As far as the body, it has had rust repair in some of the places that the primer is showing but a lot of it is just surface rust. The rear floors are real bad and the fronts are very soft. I hope this clears up any questions you had about the elcamino. If not please let me know.

A Chevy Camaro hybrid? That's what EcoCAR3 could bring

Fri, Apr 10 2015

Figuring out a way for a hybrid powertrain to co-exist with the performance expectations of a classic American muscle car is a challenge that could vex that most experienced of automotive engineers. It's a challenge, in fact, being handed to a bunch of college students. Over the next four years, students from 16 North American colleges and universities will attempt to wring fuel efficiency from a 2016 Chevy Camaro as part of EcoCAR3, an advanced-vehicle technology competition sponsored by the Department of Energy, General Motors and others. They'll be attempting to use hybrid or plug-in hybrid technology while not sacrificing the performance of the Camaro, which was selected in part because the current model achieves just 17 miles per gallon in city driving and 28 MPGs on the highway, per EPA numbers. Students will get the latest version of the vehicle to work on, one that is expected to be unveiled next month on Belle Isle in Detroit. "If we still want to produce V8 Camaros, we're going to have to look at alternative methods of propulsion," said Al Oppenheiser, the chief engineer on the Camaro. "So the ideas that these college teams come up with could very easily be adapted to a car like the Camaro." Unlike similar competitions that reward fuel efficiency in vehicles, EcoCAR seeks those gains while emphasizing cost and consumer acceptance of these vehicles. The cars shouldn't look like experiments; they should look like everyday vehicles on the road. Previous competitions have allowed the teams to use whatever powertrain they desired. This time, EcoCAR officials designed the competition to concentrate on hybrid, hybrid-electric and diesel options. Competitors won't have the option of using hydrogen fuel cells as they have in the past. Last year, a team from Colorado State built a vehicle that contained both hydrogen and electric power sources. This year's limit is a curious choice, as some automakers such as Toyota have placed heavy bets on fuel cells in recent years. General Motors also runs a fuel-cell program. With the focus on cost and practicality, however, the program officials wanted to narrow the framework of the contest. "We always have some good decisions on what to make within the scope or out of scope," said Jim Kolhoff, global director of software engineering for General Motors.

GMC Canyon, Chevy Colorado diesels finally heading to dealers

Fri, Jan 1 2016

Customers who have been waiting to receive their diesel-powered Chevrolet Colorados and GMC Canyons should be relived to hear that GM will finally start to ship them out of the Wentzville Assembly Plant. "The highly anticipated 2016 GMC Canyon diesel has begun shipping to dealers," a company spokesperson confirmed to The Detroit News. The trucks originally had a fall launch date, but a final review forced a delay in deliveries. The 2.8-liter four-cylinder diesel in the midsize trucks produces 181 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, and the company touts the engine's low emissions. The Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board even put the mill through extra scrutiny with a real world test in the wake of VW's diesel scandal, and the Duramax passed with no problems. At that time, a Chevy spokesperson told Autoblog that the models' launch was on track. The Duramax engine adds $3,730 to the price of a comparable V6 model, but they're the most fuel-efficient pickups on the market. The EPA estimates the twins at 31 miles per gallon highway, 22 mpg city, and 25 mpg combined in two-wheel drive form and 29/20/23 with four-wheel drive. Buyers likely can't wait to finally experience these pickups after reading a heap of positive reviews. The Colorado diesel recently earned Motor Trend's Truck of the Year award. We also came away impressed with it during our First Drive and liked the Canyon during our Quick Spin. Related Video:

Will Chevy Bolt get Opel badge in Europe?

Sat, Mar 7 2015

General Motors' European plug-in vehicle name may go from A to B. That's because the Chevrolet Bolt could be sold under GM's Opel brand across the Pond, Automotive News Europe says, citing people familiar with the process that it declined to identify. The Ampera, the European version of the Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle, is being phased out due to poor sales. While the Ampera won the European Car of the Year in 2012, its sales have trended well below expectations. That the Bolt would be sold as an Opel hints to us that GM expects to distribute the electric vehicle in far smaller numbers than in the US. The Bolt, which was introduced in January in its concept version at the North American Auto Show in Detroit, will have a single-charge range of about 200 miles. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGeen on Friday afternoon. The car will also have a price tag in the US of about $30,000, factoring in federal-government tax incentives. That's if those tax incentives are still around in 2017, when the Bolt is expected to debut stateside.
