Re-listing with a low reserve. ARIZONA EL CAMINO, NOW IN IDAHO.

350 engine, 350 tranny with Stage II shift kit, done by local transmission shop in June 2013, brand new tranny cooler added as well. Runs VERY strong.

All new rubber seals.
New Dual Flow Masters. 50's series.
Brand new Red Top Optima battery. (Battery tray should be replaced as it's corroded from batteries over the years).
All BRAND NEW interior (except seat belts), from O.P.G.I still in boxes. Includes door panels, water shields, window/door handles, springs, arm rests, interior / exterior mirrors, headliner, wind lace, sail panels, carpet kit, the list goes on....... 
Thousands in receipts. You finish inside, with all the new parts that go with it.
Comes with owner's manual, receipts from original owner, and build sheet.
Power steering.
Power brakes
.
Electronic Dist.

Front bench seat needs to be re-upholstered.
Rear bumper needs to be mounted.

Car looks, and runs GREAT. A real head turner, and a true American muscle car. I'm basically the 2nd owner of this Arizona Elky

The bed was protected by a hard fiberglass tonneau cover since new, however it does have a few dents, and previous owner drilled a couple of holes on bottom of the bed.
Pics really don't show true color. I will add one a.s.a.p. It's a light metallic, blue with gold specs. Pics were taken on overcast morning. When in the sunlight you can see the gold flakes better.

If you're thinking of restoring a 1970......... consider this one. It's mostly finished, and I know for certain I will be taking a loss. This El Camino was purchased new, and was a one owner. Previous owner passed away, and handed down the vehicle to his daughter, who kept
it in a barn, but fired it up periodically. I bought it because it was so original, but mostly because it was RUST FREE.


(I will change pics soon. The ones posted DO NOT show true color, it's a really nice ice blue, with gold flakes. One VERY small chip where hood meets head light housing, approx less than 1/2" chip, another above rear window the same size. Fixable) NOTE: All existing interior is tan. NEW interior is BLACK. Dash is perfect, no problems mechanically, electrically, no fluid leaks, etc. With the brand new 600 cfm carb, this gets up, and goes, please just don't expect it to be a race car, nor a show car. Not butchered, or hacked. All body lines are good.


Note: I have owned the vehicle for approx. 6 years. It's been my Sunday driver, and it's a fun ride. Always get waves, and thumbs up. Odometer shows @ 46,000 miles, but I believe there is only approx. 23,000 on engine. I've only put on about 1,000 miles since I've owned it, I am disabled, and don't drive much. All the new engine parts listed are about 10 months old. Wires shown in one pic. are from an old 8 track stereo I removed. I do have the brand new fender tip, and cowl hood stainless trim. I don't have the trim for rear, and front glass. Paint is nicer than most I've seen. Never driven on freeway, and driven only in summer. Front end, steering is all tight. Never wrecked, and no bondo. When the body/paint work was done, there was a little rust found at the bottom of both front fenders. They were professionally patched. You'd be hard pressed to find such a straight Elky, then do all I've done to it. Brake booster is rusty, and engine bay just needs a lot of detailing as it's pretty dirty!
License plates not included. I encourage anyone who is interested to call. This is one HONEST El Camino............ in need of interior, and some elbow grease.......! Check back soon, as I plan on taking better pics.

Car will be sold "As is, where is" with no warranty. 
Seller has the right to end auction at any time. Payment to be made by Cashier's check. Buyer's responsibility to arrange shipping. Winning bidder please call me to help assist with your shipping company. When Cashier's check clears, you get the vehicle. Clear Idaho title in hand. Thanks, and good luck bidding.


Feel free to call with any questions. My name is Mike, Ph. #: 208 968 9729

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.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible headed for Geneva debut

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

While most of the world is still coming down from all the hype surrounding the debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month, we're already looking to the future. And according to Autoweek, the next chapter in the C7 story will unfold at the Geneva Motor Show in March. That's right, General Motors is reportedly using the Swiss stage as its venue to debut the Corvette Stingray convertible.
If this strikes you as odd, you aren't alone. After all, with a car that's such an American icon, we'd fully expect Chevrolet to unveil it here on our shores in either Chicago or New York. But according to Autoweek, GM is looking to boost export sales of its halo car, and since the C7 was engineered to compete with the world's best and brightest, showing it off in Geneva is somewhat of a smart move. What's more, those with sharp memories will recall that GM used the Geneva expo to debut the sixth-generation C6 Corvette convertible back in March 2004, so there's also a precedent.
Details surrounding the Corvette Stingray convertible are still slim, though we fully expect the 6.2-liter V8 and choice of either six-speed automatic or seven-speed manual transmissions to carry over unchanged. Prototypes spotted on the road showed the car fitted with a cloth convertible roof, as well.

Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.
