1969 El Camino 350cu. In. V8 on 2040-cars

Year:1969 Mileage:46991
Location:

Temple, Texas, United States

Temple, Texas, United States

The vehicle was purchased in 1970.  The original vehicle has been modified to be a SS want-to-be by changing the hood and interior.

The engine is a 350Cu. In. which was rebuilt in 1998 with 38,950 miles on it.  The present mileage is 46,991.  During the rebuild, a new RV cam was put in, all new pistons and rings, push rods, rockers, valves and springs.  The heads were completely redone and modified to be able to use unleaded gas.  The engine also received a new Edelbrock intake manifold and carburetor.  It has a new fuel pump, starter, water pump and alternator.  It has the two-chamber Flowmaster mufflers with Hooker headers.

The rear end is a 12-bolt positive traction with 308 gears.  The transmission is a 350 turbo automatic three speed.

The front suspension and bushings were all replaced in 1994. Front Disc brakes were installed in 2005.

It does have a stock AC unit but it need some work.  New compressor but it might have a Freon leak because it is not as cool as it should be.

The painting on the vehicle was done in 2005. It is painted a pearl white with ghost flames in the black stripes.  The body work took over a year to complete and is straight with no fillers being used.

All the interior work was completed in 2005 with the SS package.  This includes seats, headliner, carpet and tonneau cover.

Even though the car is driven frequently since the overhaul, it has been entered in several shows and is a winner for it's class.

Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

With 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.

2014 Chevrolet Silverado tows in new configurator, microsite

Mon, 21 Jan 2013

Judging by your continued enthusiastic response to configurator notices, dear reader, you enjoy speccing out new cars as much as we do. Better still, there tends to be even more ways to personalize, configure and bloat theoretical MSRPs on full-size trucks as there are with more ordinary passenger cars. In addition to trim level, engine and transmission choices, truck buyers usually have to specify items like cab configuration, bed length, number of driven axles, tow packages, gear ratios and all sorts of bits and bobs.
That's why we're pleased to see the DIY specification utility for the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado come alive so soon after this week's Detroit Auto Show debut. While the configurator lacks pricing (General Motors hasn't announced numbers yet) and full options, you can still spec out your half-ton rig, and even print it out or email it to your friends. Beyond the configurator, the new model-specific site is pretty cool, too, with various videos and closer looks at the truck's new features.
The new Chevrolet pickup range won't be on dealer lots until sometime this summer, so whether you're a building contractor, an avid sportsman or just a guy or gal that loves full-size trucks, you might want to check out the link below to keep your appetite whetted. If you're more of a Sierra fan, well, it looks like you're going to have to wait a while - GMC hasn't updated its site yet.

Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1

Mon, 13 Jan 2014



The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
