If you are shipping, once the vehicle has been shipped, the transaction will be considered complete and there will be no cancelations or refunds of any kind. (for obvious reasons) Here is my detailed report on this vehicle which was prompted by some of your questions. I will be using a scale of 1-10 Here is my guide: 1-being beyond repair 5-being functional but needing cosmetic repair or vice versa 10-being completely perfect or good as original As I stated in the description and from what you can't see in the pictures, are some minor cosmetic imperfections. Small scratches, chips, and dents are present, but they are very minuet. I will send you a few pictures to clarify. If the paint and body was literally 100% flawless, (which would be better than the factory finish) is a 10 - this car would be a 7. If there were no blemishes that occurred after the paint job I would give it a 8. The wearable items (brakes, tires, ect.) are all new or near new - 9 The glass is all original and is in very good condition. Some very minor blemishes and typical slight delamination in the corners, hardly noticeable - 9 The engine, transmission, and differential, (and their counterparts) are numbers matching and in great condition , cosmetically and mechanically. I will say an 8 for cosmetic and a 9 for mechanically operable. 396cid Turbo Jet/325hp - 400 hydramatic (Turbo 400) 12 Bolt Posi ( I believe 3.08 gears - If you need to know for sure I will find out positively its either 3.08 or 3.55) The suspension has mostly been replaced/restored and is an 8 cosmetically and a 9 for operable as well . The electrical system and everything it encompasses is sound and all functions are operable with the exception of the 8-track. It seems someone has possibly had a modern radio head installed at sometime in the past and when they put the original 8-trck back in, they did not bother to connect it electronically. - I will investigate this more if desired. Other than that - this gets a 9 for function and a 9 for appearance. (wire routing, splicing, ect) The interior is mostly all original we suspect. The vinyl seats, panels, and dash are in very good condition. you may find a small superficial hairline crack, but for the most part, it is as good as it gets. Some minor dullness (you can see in the pictures). The plastic and metal parts are all in fine shape. Anything less than what it looked like in 1968 is due to time, not wear. Some dullness and light checking. (you can see this on the steering wheel in the pictures) . The top is new and functions as designed. Interior score - 7 with the potential to be an 8 with a bottle of interior refresher / conditioner and some time. Trunk, engine compartment, and undercarriage - Pictures speak for it - 8 or 9 ? I will say this vehicle over all is an 8. You can see what it sold for at Barrett Jackson by clicking the link above. I believe that alone should instill your confidence in this vehicle. This car is a cross between a show car and a driver. It may not be the best at the Barrett Jackson type auctions but it might be the nicest one at your local car show. This is a car you can drive and enjoy without having to worry about every bug that hits your windshield. This car appeals to every type of potential owner. It can be a driver, show car, collector piece, small project, or all of the above. If it were mine, I would drive and enjoy it as a "Sunday car", touch up little things as I go,(and as more develop inevitable from use) and take it to car shows. If you are looking to do a restoration, - this is not the car If you are looking for a trailer queen - this is not the car ( but it can be I suppose) This is a car that is in probably as good as shape as the late model car you drive everyday, and I bet this 1968 Impala will cost less than the car you are driving now. Just saying - what kind of car can you buy nowadays under $27,000 ? Like I have stated, this is not my car, but a car I am listing for a very good customer. I been around this car several times over the passing years and recently I went over it very thoroughly in order to list it. My opinions are true, professional, and unbiased. Happy bidding! Questions are always welcomed! Here is a link to the pictures of virtually the only few marks on this car. Video of this vehicle selling at Barrett Jackson!

Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it
Wed, 06 Nov 2013We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible is a Swiss hit
Mon, 04 Mar 2013We've just received an early peek at the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible here at the Geneva Motor Show. General Motors was kind enough to let us attend the final dress-rehearsal for its press conference scheduled for tomorrow's opening media day, and we've come away with a good look at the droptop C7 in person.
In the metal, the new Corvette Convertible seems somehow less avant-garde than the Coupe, even in Z51 Performance Package guise. That's not necessarily a bad thing - more of an observation. That initial impression may be because the C7's new greenhouse is one of its most prominent departures from Corvettes past. While we didn't get to see the top erected, there's no rear side window in the stock images that Chevy has already released, suggesting the C7 convertible's profile will look a lot like its C6 predecessor. And with the new power tonneau cover in place, there are also no rear ducts that come as part of the Z51 package (they've been moved under the car).
As with its predecessor, the tonneau is a handsome double-bubble piece, and the body-color "waterfall" element into the cabin between the seats has made it to the new model as well. Thus, the overall look with the top down should be a bit more familiar to prior-gen C6 owners - if you're one of those put off by the C7's new shape, you'll probably appreciate the convertible bodystyle more than the coupe.
Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.
