She was born in 1970 and was purchased new by a woman from a dealer in California and was off to its destination of Nampa Idaho. This car was ordered by her with the right options including the following . 454 Turbo -jet engine with 345 H.P Turbo 400 transmission , power steering and power Disc brakes, This car was always babied by her she changed the oil every 3 k miles and always maintained it when it needed service . I have most of all the service records from her ownership. She drove the car through the 70's and 80's into the early 90's and then it was parked and sat for 10 years until the car was finally offered for sale to the second owner who is 70 years old today . He was searching hard to find a big block car and found one word of mouth. When he flew to Idaho to see the car he knew immediately that this was the car for him. It was completely rust free and all original in every way. The trunk was original and looked like new and still till today it remains the same and looks like new. All the metal was original and no rust anywhere. The paint was a little faded and to him it was something he was anxious to tackle and bring this awesome Impala back to looking like she did when she was Born. He had the fenders ,hood and doors taken off the car. They were blocked and sanded and painted the Original Color which is Green Mist. The rear of the car was then painted and also the trunk was removed to make the car perfect and not have any edges or tape lines . Everything was removed and it was done right. it cost him nearly 4 k to paint the car and install new seals and the bumpers were removed and re chromed and look brand new. This car was painted 8 years ago and still to this day it looks amazing and shines like a show car. The Interior is all original and in show condition as well. The carpets are new, headliner, dash and he upgraded the original radio to a period correct looking radio but its digital when it turn on . I still have the Original dash and radio they come with the car. Inside the car everything works. Ice cold AC. hot heat, am /fm Cassette. All the seat belts are functional and in place. The seats are firm and look brand new, The windshield wipers work perfect as well as do all the dash lights and outside lights. Now for the Monster laying under the hood . Chevy made 14,280 454 LS 4 cars in 1970. out of those you would be lucky to find 10% still in existence . The 512 Engine notes it being a big block car and it was made in the Tonawanda plant .The engine is all original and never been rebuilt or detailed . I decided to leave it original to show its beautiful state. Its very easy to dress up the engine compartment .  It still has the original carbs breathers etc. The only thing that isn't original is the alternator. The Original  air cleaner is in excellent condition and still has the original stickers on it. I did purchase a new 454 sticker and it will come with the car. The power in this car is incredible. It has monster power and sounds very mean.  Underneath the car you will find a complete new exhaust with flow master mufflers. It has a very nice growl. The under carriage is rust free and very solid. The frame is solid and was undercoated , Suspension is tight and brakes are like new. The tires have about 3000 miles on them and have plenty of tread left. The car sits on beautiful rally wheels that are pristine . I have the original wheels with tires still mounted on them and the center caps. I drove this car home from Alabama where I purchased it from the second owner. It was a awesome ride and 800 miles of pure enjoyment. Everywhere i stopped I was asked what year is the car. Is it original ? Is it really a 454 ? does it really have AC? and my answer was yes to all . This is a Original Numbers matching car , Documented 2 owners , Original window sticker , books service history ,and I even have the Original Title with the woman's name on it who was the First owner. This car is Truly Rare and will only go up in value . To find a 1970 impala 454 345 H.P car with original matching numbers Only 1 repaint and all original metal is RARE. I have had many classic cars and drove the best of them . But this one truly is special in the attention its gets from everyone. I think I am pricing this car very fair. There are a lot of impala's around but not many 454 big block car and this original someone will get an amazing car and be able to drive it and be proud to take it to shows. I can take more pictures if anyone requests them . Please call me with any questions you might have I will end the auction if I get a good offer . But click the buy it now I don't think you will find a better 70 impala out there. Steve 954-464-3515 


P.S When I drove the car home I noticed the front end was a little sloppy. It needed a New center link . I am having the front end completely  redone  with new alignment and ball joints and polyurethane bushings. So the car will be tight and ready to go. 


I took time decoding the car. here is what the numbers equated too. T = Tonawanda plant 02 = month it was produced 16 is the Day CGV is the engine suffix code and lastly the 10C1517 shows the 517 engine which is the 454 These numbers are on the block and match the vin # . I also have a Bill of sale from the second Owner Documenting the car to be a 2 owner car and all numbers matching. It was signed and Notarized.

Chevy might've pulled out of NASCAR if it weren't for new Gen 6 car

Wed, 20 Feb 2013

We've been on the fence with NASCAR for some time now. On one hand, it's some of the closest racing anywhere in motorsports, with actual passing and door-handle-to-door-handle action as a matter of course. But on the other, it's become template racing - a personality-driven sport more about the drivers than any sort of loyalty to a particular automaker. The Car Of Tomorrow format really rammed that message home, with a racecar's identity coming down to little more than headlamp stickers slapped on the nose. That's not necessarily a bad thing in and of itself, but we've wondered for some time what's in it for the automakers, who pay big money to stay in a series that has had little increasingly little do with street car sales, let alone innovation.
Apparently General Motors was beginning to wonder the same thing. In a new ESPN report, Rick Hendrick, team owner of Hendrick Motorsports, suggests that GM would have seriously considered leaving NASCAR if it wasn't for the move away from the COT to the new Gen 6 racer. According to Hendrick, GM North America boss Mark Reuss spearheaded the charge away from the 2007 COT and toward a racecar with clearer automaker ties - cars like the new Chevrolet SS racer shown above. Learn more about the fight for a closer-to-production look in the ESPN story at the link.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism

Mon, 07 Jan 2013

Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.

Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

With all of the attention given to the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray lately, you could be forgiven for thinking that it's already well along in production, yet tooling up for the new C7 has only just begun. In fact, production of the outgoing C6 generation in Bowling Green, Kentucky just halted on Thursday.
As the C6 has aged, production numbers have predictably ebbed along with demand, but this year, the addition of the 427 and 60th anniversary models resulted in an uptick in vehicles built - this, despite a model year shortened by around 25 percent to accomodate the new model changeover. The final C6 Corvette ever, No. 13,466 built this year, was a white 427 Convertible destined for the General Motors Heritage Center museum. The car's 7.0-liter V8 heart was assembled by Corvette chief engineer Tadge Juechter himself.
In total, Bowling Green pushed out 215,100 C6 Corvettes over nine years. If you're still a C6 fan at heart and are hoping to get a good deal on a phase-out model, step lively - Chevrolet reportedly had about 6,100 unsold units, which Autoweek suggests is good for around five and a half months of supply at the model's current sales rates. Given that demand will likely slacken even further as the C7 draws closer, that should be a big enough stockpile to keep dealers satisfied until 2014 Stingrays begin showing up on their forecourts in December.
