1959 Chevrolet El Camino White on 2040-cars
Eureka, California, United States
Feel free to ask me any questions about the car : perlahorwood@net-c.pl .
Up for sale is a bitchin 59 El Camino – one of a kind. This car has just undergone a 3 year nut and bolt
restoration with tons of time and money invested. There are not a whole lot of 59 El Caminos out there like this
one. If you are in the market for a good example, you need to consider this car. Look at the 24 pics, you will see
that this isn't your average restored 59.
This car was built with long term investment in mind. Nothing has been altered to permanently affect the cars
integrity or originality. Nothing was cut or welded. The car could easily be put back to stock later on down the
road if someone wanted to do so.
This is a very thorough build with everything new, rebuilt, replaced, or restored. Every single clip, screw,
bearing, seal, nut and bolt has been gone through on this car. It was done right and it shows.
The underside of the car was completely detailed and looks great. The frame was striped and painted semi-gloss
black. The floors were coated in 3m Shutz coating. This is a very fine textured coating that holds up very well.
All the suspension and front end parts were either powder coated or shot in base clear.
The car was in Arizona, where it had been most of its life. This was a super solid car to start with and was one
of the best unrestored El Caminos I had ever seen.
These are not easy or cheap cars to restore to this level. They don’t reproduce a lot for them and parts can be
tough to find. There are a ton of man hours into this build.
The paint on the car was professionally done and looks great! It is very slick and has been color sanded and
buffed to a glass finish. All DuPont materials were used. It’s done in a 2014 Corvette red.
Every piece of stainless, aluminum, or chrome was refinished. The one piece bumpers have been replated.
The inside of the bed is beautiful. Lots and Lots of hours went into just the bed alone.
The entire engine compartment was finished with great detail. The firewall is painted body color, as is the
underside of the hood. As you can see everything was painted apart. No painted-over bolt heads, all hardware is
either new or blasted and re-coated original. Lots of time and money spent getting the engine compartment to look
as good as it does.
Everything under the hood is brand new. The motor is a rebuilt 327 that runs very smooth. It has a polished Demon
Carb, billet HEI distributor; Billet Specialties streamline valve covers and air cleaner that were shot in red.
Stainless headers, polished intake, pulleys, wire looms and more. All hoses, wires, and anything else that could
be replaced was.
The tranny is a Muncie 4 speed that shifts nice and functions as it should.

Fewer than 1 in 3 Chevy dealers earn right to initially sell C7 Corvette
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Looking to make the launch of the 2014 Corvette Stingray as efficient as possible, Chevrolet will be limiting the numbers of its dealers that can sell the all-new coupe and convertible. According to Automotive News, sales of the C7 Corvette will initially be limited to less than a third of Chevy's total dealership network when the 'Vette goes on sale this summer.
Only 900 dealers out of more than 3,000 locations nationwide will be allowed to sell the new Corvette at first, and the reason for this is so that there are no shortages at dealers that can actually get the cars sold. The article says that the 900 dealerships chosen represented 80 percent of total Corvette sales in 2012.
Some of the requirements dealers had to make to get initial allocation of Stingray sales include having sold at least four Corvettes in 2012 and having a Corvette Stingray specialist who will be required to have gone through a training session costing more than $2,000 per attendee. Once demand for the 2014 Corvette Stingray begins to subside - approximately six to nine months after it goes on sale - then allocation could open up to more dealers, but the report indicates this could happen following the 2014 model year.
New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green
Fri, 01 Mar 2013With 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.
