1961 Chevrolet Impala 2 Door Hardtop Bubbletop Original Paint/patina on 2040-cars

Year:1961 Mileage:100000

I have a 1961 Chevrolet Impala 2 door hardtop. I bought the car from the second owner. Previous owner said that he had bought the car from the original owner in the 80's and drove it on the weekends up until the motor threw a rod in 2001 so he stored it in his garage until I purchased it this February. I had the motor rebuilt and it is a 327 with a 4 speed tranny. It runs and drives good but does leak a little bit of oil because I used the original oil pan that was a bit beat up. It has the original fawn paint with nice patina. Driver door was replaced so the paint doesn't match the rest of the body perfectly. The car has a little rust in the driver side fender by the headlight, a little spot on the driver rocker, and some bubbling on the lower rear quarter. The lower driver quarter has some damage that will need to be addressed if you are going to make a show car. The front floor pans were patched by previous owner as well. The interior is nice driver quality far from show though. I also have the original kick panels I just installed the plastic replacement with new mb quart speakers and tweeters for some sound and installed a new kenwood cd player hidden in the tissue dispenser. The car has the hard to find front grill guard and rear bumper guards as well. I also have all 4 original paint wheels with the original hubcaps. All of the headlights and blinkers work as well and the brakes are good, it was my daily driver this Summer. Hard to find these cars now a days especially drivers with original paint! I know that I am forgetting stuff so if you have any questions please email me and they will be answered! Thanks

GM already raising prices on 2014 Silverado and Sierra pickups

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

General Motors must be pretty pleased with sales of its two newest pickups, the GMC Sierra and Chevrolet Silverado, as it's announced price hikes for both models, as part of a planned price tweak.
Prices will be bumped by as much as $1,500, although weirdly, they'll be offset by as much as $1,500 in cash-back offers through the end of October. Fox Business reports that GM spokesman Jim Cain said of the price hike, "With the sell down of the '13 models nearly complete, this price adjustment was planned and is a normal part of business."
The move, as Fox is quick to point out, is an interesting one, as sales of the twin pickups struggled last month relative to the Ford F-Series, while both of GM's crosstown competitors have been aggressively undercutting Silverado and Sierra prices. The F-150 starts at $24,070 and the Ram 1500 comes in at $23,600, not counting any cash on the hood. A base Silverado, meanwhile, retails at $25,575.

PickupTrucks.com's latest test results in a familiar winner [w/video]

Wed, 19 Jun 2013

PickupTrucks.com has gone and thrown the latest batch of half-ton pickups into a cage match to see who would come out on top. The site put the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, GMC Sierra 1500, 2013 Ford F-150, Ram 1500, Toyota Tundra and Nissan Titan through a battery of tests. Those included 0-60 miles per hour acceleration, 60-0 mph deceleration, fuel economy, a hill climb, and payload and towing. They even threw the rigs on an autocross course to evaluate overall handling. Each truck was given points based on how it scored in each evaluation.
Who came out on top? Somewhat surprisingly, the 2013 Ford F-150 walked away with the gold, though fewer than 50 points separated first and fourth place. Head over to PickupTrucks.com to read the full evaluation and the final results. You may be shocked to see exactly where some of the segment's newest additions placed. You can also watch a video on the test below.

Chevy to show redesigned Captiva in Geneva, will it come to US rental lots?

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

Unless you're renting a car or driving through Orlando, Florida (the rental car capital of the US), you'll probably never see a Chevrolet Captiva - the rebadged, fleet-only version of the old Saturn Vue - on our roads, but this crossover is popular in many other parts of the world. As such, Chevrolet announced that the Captiva will be getting an update for 2013, which will be unveiled next week at the Geneva Motor Show.
Coming off a pretty extensive refresh in 2011, the 2013 model year will bring even more changes to the Captiva like LED taillights, new 18-inch wheels and revised fascias with a new grille and fog lights up front and inset chrome exhaust outlets at the rear. New interior features include heated rear seats, dual-zone climate control as well as available options on some of the upper trim levels such as leather seating and keyless entry and start. We have yet to hear back from Chevrolet as to whether or not the updated Captiva will be making its way to a rental lot near you, as the model is only available in the US to fleet buyers.
Alongside the updated Captiva, Chevy is also showing off its new Trax in Europe, where the subcompact crossover will go on sale this spring. GM's press release for these two Geneva-bound models is posted below.
