 Up for sale is a nice 2 door impala. This is a PROJECT car that is mostly complete, missing a few trim pieces. This vehicle was repainted at some point, but the paint started to crack near the rear window/quarter areas. Looks like there is some bondo in those areas, not sure how much though. This was assembled in the LA plant here in CA and it looks like it never left. This vehicle was purchased in the condition that it is in now, so I am not sure what kind of history it has. If there are specific areas you want pictures of or info about, contact me prior to purchase so that we can avoid any issues later.

This is a running vehicle with a 283 V8 and a 3 speed auto transmission. Comes with power steering, power brakes and power windows. All windows roll up/down. The trunk opens, but requires effort to keep it open. Looks like one of the retainer springs is either missing or detached. Looks like someone had a sound system in the car before because it's wired for subs in the trunk and dynomat in the trunk too.

The interior is mostly all there with the exception of the kick panels, the right sun visor and possibly a few other small things i’m not remembering. The carpet will need to be changed (worn through on drivers side), the radio will need to be looked at (doesn’t turn on), the door panels are there but they show wear, the steering wheel/column have cracks, and the front seat has cigarette burn marks. Needs weather stripping and possible upholstery work.

With some time and effort this can be a great show car or a great weekend cruiser for those hot august nights. This is a highly desirable year and it’s getting harder to find one that is complete and running. This impala is not rust free, but the rust it has is mainly surface rust and it’s in the usual spots. This is a 52 year old car, so it's not perfect.

If you’re not sure about something or would like more info/pictures, send me an email and I’ll to my best to answer your inquiries. This vehicle is also listed locally, so I reserve the right to end this sale at any time if it sells.

PLEASE NOTE: The buyer is responsible for arranging tow/shipping for this vehicle.

Official USPS Muscle Cars stamps coming to a mailbox near you

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

As much as our digital lives have cut down on our trips to the post office, there are still times that sending "snail mail" is necessary. With us car lovers in mind and philately in their hearts, the good folks at the United States Postal Service will introduce a new stamp design called "Muscle Cars" starting on February 22.
Designed by artist Tom Fritz, the new collection of stamps consist of five classic muscle cars: 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona, 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS, 1967 Shelby GT-500, 1966 Pontiac GTO and 1970 Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda. In addition to just the stamps, the USPS is also commemorating the new series with plenty of collectable memorabilia. Previous car-related stamps include 50s Sporty Cars from 2005 and 50s Fins and Chrome from 2008.

Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR

Fri, 08 Feb 2013

There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard

Tue, 19 Mar 2013

Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
