This auction is for my 1965 El Camino. I am the third owner of this car, the first two owners are in the same family. The car is from California and then Oklahoma. I have owned the car for 12 years. The car has had a complete body on restoration and has 18,xxx miles since the restoration. The car is always kept inside and covered with two California custom car car covers. It has been pampered for 12 years. here are the details:
BODY: No rust ever, all original body panels and fenders. All glass and upholstery were removed for the resto, interior insulated and all new interior installed. The paint is Glassurit German black with House of Kolor Tangelo pearl base coat/clear coat. The paint has been color sanded and buffed and is extremely smooth and glossy. Look at the pics of the body panels, lazer straight and smooth. The hood and cowl induction are steel, not fiberglass.
INTERIOR: Custom gauge panel with Autometer Pro Comp gauges, including trans temp. Tilt column with Billet Specialities steering wheel, custom sonsole with B&M shifter. Three point seat/shoulder belts. Door panels, headliner and carpet all replaced. Leather 6 way power and heated seats.
ENGINE: Small block chevy, 4 bolt mains, .030 over Hyperteutic pistons, 383 stroker, steel crank pink rods. Hardened valve seats, manley stainless steel 2.02 valves, screw in studs, guide plates,. Lunati cam and lifters, roller rockers. Aluminum high rise, Edelbrock 750 cfm elec choke carb, ceramic coated long tube headers. HEI ignition, 100 amp alternator, CVR gear reduction starter.The exhaust is 2 1/2" all the way with a Dr Gas X pipe and Flowmaster mufflers.

The rear has Global West tubular lower control arms, Hotchkis frame stiffeners, Koni shocks, custom springs, Praise Dyno carbon fiber brake shoes on later model 11" drums. The wheels are Billet Specialities fast lanes in 17".
GENERAL: This El Camino is super nice. It rides and handles really well, cornering is remarkably stable and precise. The best feature of this car is how tight it is and how well it drives. Fly in and drive it home, it is stone reliable. All the chrome has been replated, every piece of stainless has been polished. The car has factory air and works great. The car has no issues, it has been driven 18,xxx miles since all the work was performed and does have some minor signs of use. You really have to look hard to see flaws, but it is not perfect. In some photos the orange pearl looks "yellowish" it is not, pearl paint is difficult to capture with a home digital camera. All paint on this car is super nice. I am 66 years old and have been having fun with cars for a long time...this is a good one. Check my feedback, bid with confidence, no dissappointments. I have many more pics....if you want more let me know. Good luck bidding.

Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green
Fri, 01 Mar 2013With all of the attention given to the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray lately, you could be forgiven for thinking that it's already well along in production, yet tooling up for the new C7 has only just begun. In fact, production of the outgoing C6 generation in Bowling Green, Kentucky just halted on Thursday.
As the C6 has aged, production numbers have predictably ebbed along with demand, but this year, the addition of the 427 and 60th anniversary models resulted in an uptick in vehicles built - this, despite a model year shortened by around 25 percent to accomodate the new model changeover. The final C6 Corvette ever, No. 13,466 built this year, was a white 427 Convertible destined for the General Motors Heritage Center museum. The car's 7.0-liter V8 heart was assembled by Corvette chief engineer Tadge Juechter himself.
In total, Bowling Green pushed out 215,100 C6 Corvettes over nine years. If you're still a C6 fan at heart and are hoping to get a good deal on a phase-out model, step lively - Chevrolet reportedly had about 6,100 unsold units, which Autoweek suggests is good for around five and a half months of supply at the model's current sales rates. Given that demand will likely slacken even further as the C7 draws closer, that should be a big enough stockpile to keep dealers satisfied until 2014 Stingrays begin showing up on their forecourts in December.
Watch NASCAR racer Jeff Gordon put one over on a used car dealer... sorta
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Full Disclosure: in my younger days, I loved nothing more than tormenting passengers with my behind-the-wheel hijinks. Once, after a particularly artful handbrake turn on a two-lane at around 50 miles per hour, I left one backseat occupant crying in their own lap. This isn't necessarily something to be proud of, but it gives you a glimpse into why it is that I find this ad from Pepsi so damn disappointing. The premise is beautiful. Take NASCAR legend Jeff Gordon, give him a disguise and set him loose upon some unsuspecting used car dealer. Hilarity ensues.
Except that this Pepsi Max commercial is so obviously staged, it can't help but feel like some ham-fisted marketing fail. From the strategically placed aftermarket cupholder mounted mid-dash for the hidden camera to the fact that the supposed dealer Camaro is displayed as a 2009 model (Hint: Chevrolet didn't make any), this clip is about as organic as a Twinkie. Still, we would never turn down a chance to watch Gordon thrash on a rental-spec coupe - only problem is, he probably didn't even do the driving himself. Check it out below.
2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers

Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?
