1970 Chevrolet El Camino Custom. This is an awesome car that has recently been redone... The car has went through a lot of updates... It is an original A/C car. The prior owner done away with it when the motor was redone. It has a great running 350 with a slight cam. Aluminum radiator with electric/automatic fan. New dual exhaust out of new ceramic coated headers... Runs and sounds great. It's got a great sound without being obnoxious. New wheels and tires with a fresh alignment on front end. The inside originally was brown with the bench seat. I changed it to black. The interior has completely been redone. New dash pad, door panels, carpet, headliner, seats, custom console with storage, cup holders, Ipod/cd player, new speaker kit on backboard. Additional hidden storage in backboard as well. All new weatherstripping and headliner lace all around. New steering wheel, A pillar tach. custom gauge cluster in dash for easy visibility. Body matching paint carried through the cab. New floor mats, door handles, window cranks, etc. Tinted Windows. Several drivetrain parts are also new... New A arms, sway bar bushings, etc. Everything that was wore out and needed replaced was replaced... Reese receiver with 7 plug wiring harness. New chrome all around, bumpers, mirrors, door handles, bed rails, window trims (front,sides, and back, etc. There was some minimal rust on each side of the bed on the rockers. These 2 areas (1 on each side) was cut out and new metal welded in. The car originally had a vinyl top. When I bought it, it was shot. I elected to remove it and paint the roof. The roof did have typical surface rust, it was ground down, sealed and finished. I installed a new SS hood, new SS grill and badges. I removed the reverse lights, and the rear badge from the tailgate to make a nice, clean & smooth rear end. The bed is black rhino lined. The body work was done and finished off with a burnt orange/copper color accented with dark charcoal grey racing stripes on hood and tailgate. This car is a real head turner... A lot of work and money was spent on this beauty and I am very proud of it but am moving onto a 48 Ford pickup project. This is a solid car that is fun to drive, rides great, and is pretty quick. Just get in and drive... I know there is a lot of parts that were replaced that I'm failing to mention. The side trim is original with new mounting clips. I also have a few misc. items and a small amount of paint to go with the car along with a very nice car cover made for the car. I'm sure if you're interested, you have questions... My name is Shane and can be reached at 765-661-6227. The car is located in Warren, Indiana. We are roughly 30 minutes south of Ft. Wayne and an hour north of Indianapolis right off of I69. This car is for sale locally as well.

2014 Chevy Cruze Diesel arrives with 42 mpg for $25,695*
Thu, 07 Feb 2013The last time General Motors had a diesel passenger car in the US, it was the 1.8-liter 1986 Chevette. At the 2013 Chicago Auto Show today, GM is unveiling the much-anticipated 2014 Chevrolet Cruze Diesel. The compact bows with a 2.0-liter turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine that boasts 148 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque, with full twist coming on at just 2,000 rpm. What's more, the common-rail, direct-injection diesel features an overboost function that allows the engine to deliver up to 280 lb-ft of torque for 10 seconds at a time. Even with 10 more horsepower and 110 more pound-feet of torque than the available turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder in the Cruze, the 2.0-liter diesel engine can return up to 42 mpg (highway) bolted to its six-speed automatic transmission.
If you're counting, that figure meets the less powerful Cruze Eco with a six-speed manual transmission. More importantly, the auto transmission Cruze Diesel matches its main competition, the Volkswagen Jetta TDI, in highway fuel economy. The Cruze 2.0 TD (as it will be badged) can also handle up to 20 percent biodiesel (B20), whereas the Jetta is rated only for B5. General Motors has not released city fuel economy for its newest diesel, but we do know how much it will cost you to jump behind the driver's seat.
GM will kindly ask for $25,695, plus an $810 destination fee. That marks a $2,115 premium over a loaded Cruze LTZ Auto and $2,640 more than the Jetta TDI, though the MSRP will net you a leather interior, 17-inch alloy wheels and an Aero Performance Package, as well as a two-year maintenance plan and five-year, 100,000-mile powertrain warranty. Compared to the gas-powered Cruze, you also lose a couple cubic feet of rear cargo space thanks to a 17-liter diesel emission fluid tank. That urea fluid, which helps put the clean in clean diesel, will need to be refilled at least every 10,000 miles.
Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing
Tue, 21 Sep 2010Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
Use this PowerPoint when convincing your spouse to let you buy a Corvette
Thu, 14 Feb 2013When you are not the one in charge of the purse strings, creativity is a must when trying to get the string-holder to bankroll that next shiny object you just can't live without.
When I was a kid, I decided that life wasn't worth living if it weren't in pursuit of owning a GMC Typhoon. My 12-year-old self crafted a fiscal strategy that, when combined with my offer of a 49-percent share of ownership in the car in return for my parents' contribution of 80-percent of the purchase price, would see me behind the wheel of a Typhoon by the time I hit college. They walked away from the negotiating table and, the economic climate of the 8th grade being what it was at the time, another partner wasn't found before the Typhoon was discontinued.
Roy El-Rayes, however, has succeeded where 12-year-old me failed, and he did it by using the sort of professionalism that only a PowerPoint presentation can provide, along with some humor and bold-faced flattery.
