I have decided to sell my beautiful 1960 El Camino. Retired and downsizing. To many classic cars, not enough time to maintain and drive them all. This EC really is an Arizona vehicle. Bought new in Tuscon. It spent most of its life in Sierra Vista, AZ where it was restored. A total frame off restoration with no patch panels in the expected rust areas. The bottom is painted in Platinum Metallic and the top is Confederate Metallic. It will change colors and shades with different exposure to light. The grille is chrome plated and really stands out. The EC has a painted frame and underbody and everything is new or rebuilt. It sports 2" dropped spindles with power disc brakes up front. Front and rear stabilizer bars, new gas tank with locking cap, custom spare tire rack with full size spare fitted neatly under bed with easy access. Ididit tilt column with gray carrara leather steering wheel which matches the red and gray cloth and vinyl bucket seats and console. Stock red door panels and headliner with factory gray style carpet. Am-Fm/cassette player installed in factory dash position(not cutting). With the spare mounted under the truck, there is plenty of room behind the seats for luggage, storage or shopping needs. Speaking of storage, inside the Rhino lined bed with the diamond plate insert is a storage compartment for tool, jacks and any other accessories. It is located where the rear foot well would be in the station wagon chassis. It is accessed though a door that runs the width of the diamond plate insert." Very handy"

2014 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Convertible offers a few more views before reveal
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.
GM recalls Chevy Express, GMC Savana over rollaway concern
Mon, 21 Jan 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall notice for a small number of General Motors fullsize vans due to possible rollaway concerns. On certain 2013 Chevrolet Express and 2013 GMC Savana models, it is possible to remove the key from the ignition without the shifter being in park.
Only 980 total units are being affected by this recall, and GM is fixing the issue by replacing the ignition cylinder and associated keys. Affected Chevy vans were built during most of November and December while its GMC counterpart was only built for a week in November. The recall goes into effect on January 23, and to find out if your vehicle applies to the recall, the GM and NHTSA contact numbers can be found on the official recall notice, which is posted below.
Helicopter crashes on Top Gear Korea set while chasing Corvette ZR1
Mon, 11 Feb 2013The formula of Top Gear Korea is seemingly about the same as it is everywhere else in the world, including the flagship British original: involve interesting cars in fantastical situations with charismatic hosts. That prescription has proved to be pretty reliable over the years, and has lead to some truly memorable and exciting pieces of television.
Something like that was undoubtedly what the Korean producers were after when they lined up this segment - a drag race between a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and an AH1 Cobra military helicopter. The planners almost certainly did not expect the filming of the segment to go quite as wrong as it actually did, with the helicopter actually crashing into the dirt after the "drag race" had been completed. Thankfully, we're told that no one was seriously injured in the crash, but the footage, in the video below, is pretty damn chilling to watch, nevertheless.
