Trafalgar, Indiana, United States
Email me at : JamesTrappe91hdx2f16@yahoo.com 1968 Chevy El Camino. This is a west coast Chevy from Washington state. It is avery solid car with a nice straight body. The car starts right up with no smokeor noises and runs good. Vin decodes as follows... 1= Chevy Custom El Camino V8 (Model - Series)80= Two Door Sedan Pick Up(Body Style)8= 1968 (Model Year)B= Baltimore MD. (Assy. Plant)The last six= Thesequential Production Numbers.In 1968 Chevy made 41791 El Caminos +/-Only 26690were Custom El Camino V8s like this one. 5190 Were SS El Caminos and the restwere -Standard El Caminos- with a 6 cyl. or 8 Cyl. engine.This is a greatdriver. I drive the car a few times a month without issue. The door jambs andengine bay are gloss black already, I just like the way it looks now andwherever I go people always say No Way don't paint the car... So this ishow I've driven it the last couple summers. I know everyone has differenttastes so if you did want the gloss black paint job with white stripes, thejambs have already been painted. It also has a very nice original steel cowlhood installed if you wanted to make a SS tribute car. Washington state platesthat came on the car when I bought it are included as well as other Washingtonstate info. It has the old two into one exhaust that I had planned on replacingwith headers and a dual exhaust system. It also has one seam that needs to bere-stitched on the original headliner and a new windshield wiper switch. Justsome little stuff that still needs attention but I wanted to point these thingsout to everyone. This is a very solid and honest old Chevy. If your wonderingwhy the picture shows the car with a Michigan plate on it it's because itwas the only plate I had that said 1968 on it so I put it on there for thepictures! Thanks for taking the time to check out my car and if you have anyquestions I will be glad to help.

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506
Thu, 02 May 2013With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.
Kurt Busch to shake and bake (again) in Ricky Bobby car at Talladega
Sat, 19 Oct 2013Kurt Busch will channel Ricky Bobby for another NASCAR race, this time driving a Wonder-sponsored Chevrolet SS, in this weekend's Camping World RV Sales 500 at the Talladega Motor Speedway. Unlike past tie-ins, though, there's actually an element of sponsorship here (the "Me" car was done when Busch was running on a team without sponsorship).
It was arranged by Flower Foods, the new owner of the Wonder brand. Wonder was part of the bankrupt Hostess company, which temporarily exited the US market 2012, and set off the Great Twinkie Shortage.
Busch has made something of a habit of channeling characters from famous racing movies, most recently running Tom Cruise's City Chevrolet livery from Days of Thunder in a Nationwide Series race earlier this year. Busch kicked off his movie-inspired antics, though, at Talladega in 2012, when he raced El Diablo's ("It's like... Spanish for like a fighting chicken") "Me" car complete with a cougar on the hood. He even went so far as to channel the lovable idiot that is Ricky Bobby during the race, dropping a few catchphrases about macchiatos and slingshots.
Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
