This is a consignment item for my father in-law. He is old school and doesn't understand computers or eBay. I will do my best for correspondence and answer questions as punctual as possible. The title is signed and in my possession as he is a OTR driver and frequently out of town. This is his right up of the vehicle and was critiqued by my self to enhance accuracy. The vehicle is "as is" and BUYER is responsible for transport cost or pick up. Buyer is expected to make a $500.00 deposit and pay the remainder within prior to pick-up and cashier check is preferable or paypal works. Thanks for looking and happy bidding :-) Regards, Mike

1985 Chevrolet El Camino
111,780 original family owned miles
My moms car, she was the original owner from new, then I inherited it.  Texas car for ten years of it's life, then relocated back to it's home area in Illinois in 1996. Since then it's served me well as my errand runner and maintenance has been kept up on. Great car and well taken care of most its life. Some age issues including surface rust and door bushing wear causing doors to be out of line. The car runs okay but could use a tune up. The cars exhaust is leaky, not loud as much as puffy. A few smaller dents as pictured and some oxidation on exterior along with surface rust patches. Solid underneath with little concern of problems, mainly sills and edges affected by rust but not throughout panels. Bumpers are great shape with only one small dent in rear and larger dent on the side, trim and chrome are good with lots of potential. Front bumper and grill are in great shape and shine well with a good clean. The tires are newer, fuel pump was replaced along with battery  not long ago and oil is freshly changed. The motor is a 4.3 liter 6 cylinder and was rebuilt in 2003. The cars interior is in good condition, the rear view mirror is missing and there is a small chip on windshield. The seats have a small split on the seam on driver side upper bolster. The dash has 3 splits from heat. The window winding handles are missing. Love the car but gotta let it go. Thanks, Raul.

New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

There's not much to see here, but if you're one of those waiting for the reveal of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, above is the teaser image that Chevrolet posted on its Facebook page. We've seen the truck in form-fitting camo before, and even less can be made out here beyond those seriously punchy Silverado-esque fenders and the knowledge that the projector-beam headlamps teased previously do indeed work. We'll have to wait until Thursday for a full perusal of the "bold exterior design" and "careful attention given to every detail" we've been promised.
Gathering intel and rumors, magnesium and aluminum contribute to the Silverado's weight loss plan, the purported "High Country" top-tier trim will contribute to luxury pickup truck competition and profit margins and the next-generation small-block V8 will contribute to improved fuel economy. On the engine note, there have been rumors of available V6 engines, and when Facebook user John Jones asked "Where's your answer to that EcoBoost Chevy?", the Bowtie replied "stay tuned on the 13th. We think you'll be pleased...".
Along with the "Raise the Bar" tag, Chevrolet says of the Silverado, "You asked, we delivered." You can watch the reveal live on Chevrolet's Facebook page at 9:30 am EST, this Thursday, December 13. The GMC Sierra 1500 will also be there, and we'll see both in person at the Detroit Auto Show in January.

First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph

Tue, 01 Oct 2013

Chevrolet's latest road rocket, the Corvette Stingray, is a very quick car. If one needs further proof of that, we recommend they take a look at this video from Hennessey of what is claimed to be the first privately owned C7 Corvette to make a pass down the quarter mile. Not just any quarter mile, mind, this black C7 blitzed its way down the tuner's primary testing dragstrip. The Chevrolet ran the quarter in just 12.23 seconds at 114.88 miles per hour. That is a very quick time for a stock car.
Equipped with the Z51 package and a six-speed automatic transmission, not only does the C7 run a solid time, but it does so with little to no drama. That won't last though, as Hennessey will likely return it to its owner with far more power - we just hope they show a drag run of the completed product. Take a look below to watch the C7's 12.23-second run on video.

Chevrolet donates 300 vehicles damaged by Sandy to help train first responders

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

Super Storm Sandy took out a lot of automobiles in its path of destruction through the Northeast last October. The number surpassed 250,000 at last count, and a few of those were owned by Chevrolet - cars either sitting on dealership lots or waiting at port to be shipped off. Rendered unsellable by the water damage inflicted by Sandy, these vehicles were facing the crusher. But Chevy didn't send them there.
Instead, Chevy had a better idea: It will be donating 300 of these vehicles damaged by Sandy to help train first responders at Guardian Centers in Perry, GA. Chevy is the official automotive partner of Guardian Centers, which is an 830-acre facility that trains first responders in disaster preparedness. Junked cars are practically a consumable commodity there, where a full-size cityscape simulator gives trainees an entire urban center in which to train for all sorts of rescue operations and disaster scenarios.
Chevy says its particular vehicles will be used "in conjunction with role players for wide area searches, traffic congestion in emergency situations, counter terrorism, public order and mass casualty exercises." While grim scenarios all, we're certainly glad there are people out there preparing for the unexpected. While a zombie apocalypse isn't officially on the list of potential disasters to prepare for, when the virus hits, we'll be hot-footing it to Perry, GA to hang with these guys and gals.
