1965 65 Chevrolet Chevy Impala 283 V8 Auto A/c With Luxury Option New Interior on 2040-cars
Tustin, California, United States
|
I am selling a 1965 Chevrolet Impala- V8, Auto trans, A/c, caprice luxury option (This is not a caprice model, In 1965 caprice was a luxury option not its own models, 1966 was the first year the caprice was its own model). I have the title in hand and it is a clean title. If you want to see the car before bidding please let me know, I am more than happy to show it. I bought this as a driving project, to tinker with and restore but could drive at the same time, but I am working 2 jobs and have too many cars so decided to let this one go, Its been fun car to have and drive, gets a lot of attention when going down the road. With a good paint job it would be a very clean show/classic car, or it can be used as a reliable transportation & family car. It has a nice smooth ride to it, even with 4 people in the car. Goes down the road straight, No strange noises or vibrations, quiet inside. Comes with original Owners manual
Interior It has new seats, new headliner, new carpet, new visors, door panels have been restored, has the original AM radio, all original gauges, original steering wheel, All gauges function properly. Inter fan works, Heater works, Ac needs a new belt and to be recharged. The trunk is clean, recently painted with undercoating dyed to match the exterior color. I have $2175 in new interior work, I have all the receipts on the interior work. Engine: Engine is a 283 v8, with a 2 speed auto trans, upgraded 4 bbl carb, rebuilt alternator, new mastercylinder, almost of the vacumme lines have been replaced, Factory dual exhaust, recent oil and filter change, radiator was replaced about a year ago, new powersteering pump with life time warranty, Radiator hoses and water pump were replaced when radiator was replaced. Car starts right up, runs very well, a few months ago we drove it from orange county to Mammoth and back with no issues. About 3 weeks ago I drove it from Tustin to the Staples center every day for 5 days with no issues. Car does not over heat, even in hot CA weather in stop and go traffic. Car gets between 15-17 Miles per gallon depending on how you drive it and conditions. The car does not smoke except a tiny bit when it sits for a week or longer, and goes away after about 30 seconds. I was told the engine has about 50k miles since it was rebuilt, i was told that was about 10 years ago, I was not given any receipts so can not verify this, I was told it has a slightly mild cam installed in it when it was rebuilt, For a large car with a 283 it moves very well. I would recommend some new mufflers and exhaust sometime in the future, It does have some very small exhaust leaks in the pipes, You may be able to just weld them up. You dont really hear the leak, but if you stick your head under the car when its running you have slightly hear it if your listening for it. I have been driving it this way for a while now, never bothered me, Im just trying to make sure I tell everything I know about the car. Exterior: Outside is painted flat brown, Almost all the chrome trim and emblems are off the car ( I do have them, they are all in the trunk and go with the car), it has no major body damage, it does have a couple of small dings, nothing major, body is clean and pretty much straight except for the couple of dings I mentioned. It does have a bit of rust by the right lower corner of the rear window. All the body pannels line up and everything opens and closes smoothly. Grill is straight and has all the chrome pieces on the car, could use a polishing. both bumpers appear straight, front would look very good with a bit of polish, rear has some light surface rust on it, I was planning on painting the bumpers the same color as the car one day so I didnt really mind the condition of the chrome. All lights front and rear work. This car being the Impala with the Caprice luxury package came with a few more chrome pieces than the standard Impala, I believed all the pieces are there and in decent condition. It also has the original hub baps with little to no road rash or dents. Car is being sold as is where is. If you need the car shipped its up to you to arrange for shipping, Car must be paid for in full before I will release it. |

2014 Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra full configurators truck in
Sat, 15 Jun 2013You can now put prices to your wildest option-sheet dreams of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra. A microsite for the full-size pickup truck twins has been up since January, and now the full-blown configurator is live and ready to take your virtual orders. The only two chassis configurations available at the moment are the Crew Cab with either a short or standard bed - Regular and Double Cab versions will come later. In Silverado flavors that will run you $32,710 for the short box, $33,010 for the standard box, while the Sierra adds a $1,500 premium to both of those prices, and destination and handling for both models adds another $995.
Since these are American pickups the list of modifications is lengthy, but we added $11,450 in just two steps by starting with the Silverado Crew Cab and standard bed, then checking four-wheel drive and the LTZ Z71 package. Our final truck, resplendent in Brownstone Metallic paint, heated and cooled Cocoa/Dune perforated leather seating and tasty details like chrome recovery hooks, and engine block heater and LED cargo box lighting, rang up $57,285 at the candy store.
They'll be on dealer lots sometime this summer, so now's a good time to start practicing your box-checking.
NHTSA could add 1M cars to GM recall
Wed, 13 Mar 2013
The Detroit Free Press is reporting that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration may expand a recall campaign for faulty brake lamps. The agency is currently looking into complaints that certain 2004-2011 Chevrolet Malibu models as well as some 2007-2009 Saturn Aura sedans may have brake lights that do not illuminate when the driver presses the pedal. Alternatively, the lamps may also illuminate without input from the driver. General Motors recalled 8,000 Pontiac G6 models from the 2005 model year for the same problem, and NHTSA is currently investigating whether to add 550,000 more G6 models built between 2005 and 2009 to the list for the same issue.
In addition, investigators are currently examining 97 complaints from Malibu and Aura owners with the same trouble. If NHTSA adds those models to the recall campaign, more than one million units could be covered. GM, meanwhile, says there have been no accidents or injuries as a result of the problem.
Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors
Mon, 04 Feb 2013As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize.
