Who
wants a bad little 57 Chevy bargain today? Check out this late 60's built ‘57 El Camino/UTE You will not see anything like this… Back when a 1957 was just another old car in the late 60's, these nuts took a perfectly good '57 4 door wagon and make it a UTE! Still retains the original 283/ 2-speed Power glide. Receipts for $1750 at a local shop to re-do the brakes, clean fuel system, rad, service trans and tune up to put her back on the road. It has a New California Registration and License thru 2014. Clean title in my name. Ready to go, runs and drives well. It’s
a Sick Hauler for your Chopper, Dirt Bikes, a Beach Cruiser for Surfboards or
Hall Hay or Whatever. This thing has a great eyeball, everyone loves it, it stops everybody at the cruises and at the beach, just like it is ! Original un-cut dash also. There is some rust (top down fresh water created - floors, rockers, not the East Coast variety). Frame is great. She has always been a California car from Paso Robles, CA. Call it a HOT ROD or a RAT ROD…nothing to hide - this is the Real DEAL. Drive the wheels off it, as I have been (my preference) or simply re-do a few areas and / or paint Surf or Shop Logos on it... Either way You could never build this today, would have to sacrifice a '57 wagon THEN do all the work. Way too much drama + cost. Let’s re-cap: - One Off - 57 Chevy Custom El Camino/Ute - Built in the late 60's - Real Original California car - Runs and Drives Great - Original Engine and Transmission - Period Cragar wheels - Current California License and Registration - Clean California title - $1750 in receipts for recent work done - FUN Cheap Cruiser - Ready to go************ (Killer parts car/shop car as well)

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]
Wed, 19 Jun 2013PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.
More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1
Thu, 28 Feb 2013During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.
Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
