     This is a very clean '65 Impala.  It originally came out of Texas....so I was told, and by looking at the body I believe it.  This is not an expensive show car, but a nice affordable driver.  You can drive this car to work or the grocery store during the weekday, and then enter it in a car show on the weekend.  It has a non-matching numbers 350 c.i. motor, (block casting number 3970010) with the original 2-spd Power Glide automatic transmission.  I don't know what rear end gears it has.  Basically everything on this car is original except the motor.  The front and rear bumpers as well as the exterior trim is all original.  Along with everything on the inside.  There are NO RIPS or HOLES in the seats or headliner.  Sun visors are nice.  It also has the original AM Radio and dash clock, but they don't work...at least they are there!!!


It has an Edelbrock manifold and 600 cfm carb, HEI Distributor, custom made dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers, that sound nice, and the tailpipes are nicely tucked up underneath.  Not like some you see that hang down and look terrible.  Rear air shocks, 4 new tires mounted on American Racing rims that look like Centerline rims.  All the gauges work, as well as the Speedometer and Odometer.  It says 33000 miles but it's probably not the actual mileage.  Horn, turn signals, brake lights, back up lights, license plate light, head lights, wipers, all work.  This car is currently NYS Inspected and on the road.  Took it out a couple days ago when it got warm here.....which have been few and far between.

Since this car is not perfect, there are some small issues.  The motor does blow some blue smoke when it first starts, or when it's been sitting for a long time, and there is a valve cover oil leak that I just haven't taken the time to fix.  There has been some body filler put in around the bottom corner of the drivers door, and on the bottom inside edge of the trunk lid.  An easy fix for a Body Man.  Other than that the floors are all solid and in good condition.  No holes in the trunk floor.  All the glass is good....oh...I should mention that a girl had this car before me, and etched "Casper the friendly Ghost" on both of the rear side back windows.  I'm guessing she called it "Casper" !!!!!  It still looks kinda cool....you can barely see it.

I really wish I could keep this car, but I don't have the room for it anymore.  It was always garaged when not being used, but now it's going to have to sit outside.  I love this body style because there is no side pillar, and it looks sleek with the windows down. Nice long roof line.   I'm pricing this car to sell with NO RESERVE.  You bid...you're in the running.  A $1000.00 deposit is required within 48 hours of the end of the Auction into my Paypal account.  Balance do in CASH at the time of pick up.  NO sales outside the USA.  NO personal checks, Money Orders, or Bank Checks.  I use to....but almost got scammed.  So now I don't take that chance anymore.  You might want to just hit the "Buy it Now" button before the bidding passes that amount.

Chevy exec confirms SS production model reveal at Daytona on Feb 16

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet SS will make its racing debut for the 2013 Daytona 500, but the production version of the car will get its official unveiling on February 16 in Daytona, a week before The Great American Race. According to a report by Automotive News, the reveal has been confirmed by Jim Campbell, Chevy's US vice president of performance and motorsports. With the departure of the Dodge Charger, the new Chevrolet racecar will be the only competitor to feature a V8, rear-wheel-drive layout in both street and NASCAR form.
NASCAR fans will be able to see the new fullsize performance-oriented sedan on display in the festivities leading up to the Daytona 500, but the car won't go on sale until later in the year. The Australian-built Chevy SS will be a low-volume performance model, and it will be priced above the 2014 Impala, which starts at $27,535.

Subprime financing on the rise in new car sales, leasing too

Fri, 07 Dec 2012

We all remember the financial crisis that began several years back. At its core was a splurge of subprime lending for housing loans. The housing bubble burst, triggering a collapse of the mortgage-backed securities market. Apparently, those types of loans still exist in the automotive industry, and the market share for these types of "nonprime, subprime, and deep subprime," loans has grown 13.6 percent compared to the third quarter a year ago.
According to an Automotive News report, high-risk lending expanded to 24.8 percent of total loans in Q3, up from 21.9 percent for this time last year. As this level increased, average credit scores of borrowers dropped to 755, down from 763 a year ago. In that time, the average financing amount increased $90 per vehicle, to $25,963.
At 818, Volvo maintains the highest per-owner credit score, while Mitsubishi has the lowest, at 694. The highest rate of borrowers was at Toyota, with 14 percent of the market, followed by Ford with 13.1 percent and Chevrolet at 11.1.

Chevrolet planning low-cost Corvette under Stingray?

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

If you're burnt out on musings about the Chevrolet Corvette, you'll want to go ahead and skip this post. Motor Trend reports General Motors is hard at work on a low-cost version of the seventh-generation sports car for 2015. Rumored to be called the Corvette Coupe, the car will forgo the Stingray and skip the 450-horsepower 6.2-liter V8 engine in favor of a 5.3-liter V8 with under 400 ponies. If you're keeping track, that's a shade of the same engine found behind the headlights of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra.
The report also suggests the Coupe will receive a number of aesthetic tweaks to separate it from the Stingray, including different front and rear fascias as well as new front fenders and a rear diffuser. Motor Trend says the point of all this is to cut the car's price tag, which means we may see a Corvette on showroom floors for less than $50,000 if this car comes to fruition.
