Condition

Drivetrain

Engine starts right up and runs strong as you would expect with low mileage.  3.9L high output V6 engine.  Only 67k miles.  Title is checked off "not actual miles" and lists "9 miles".  I believe the currently displayed mileage to be correct.  No engine knocking, smoke, or dripping leaks. Underside of engine looks dry as you can see in pics. Shifts into and through all gears smoothly as it should. Has very powerful acceleration and cruises at highway speed.  Has been fleet serviced since new.  These engines normally last 300k+ miles with proper maintenance. 

Exterior     

Paint has all of its factory shine and glistens in the sun as you can see.  No dents or rust on the body.  There may be a few very minor blemishes here and there but body is straight and in very good condition as you can see.  The bumpers have some scuffs.  There were 3 roof mounted antennas that were removed and holes plugged.  There was a spotlight that was removed and the base plate is still mounted.  While this is not a showroom new vehicle, it is in exceptional condition for its age and mileage.  This is one of the nicest Police Impalas I have had. 

Interior

Interior is in very good condition with no rips or tears in carpet or seats.  No excessive wear.  The stock vinyl floor was removed and a new aftermarket carpet installed for aesthetic purposes. There are a few tiny holes drilled in the trim panel around the radio where some equipment was mounted.  Inside is fresh and clean with no evidence of smoking or pets.  The ABS light is on, and pertains to a faulty front left wheel speed sensor.  The right front tire pressure sensor is not working and the low tire icon/light is illuminated.  A/C  blows ICE COLD.  All interior electronics function as they should.       

Wheels and Tires

·  Tires have approximately 50%+ tread remaining. Has factory alloy LT/LS style rims.  

I have test driven approximately 50 miles and assessed the overall condition of the vehicle.  It should have no problem driving anywhere.  Obvious defects have been noted but there may be repairs required and additional defects beyond what is listed.  As I recommend to all my customers, you should have your mechanic look over any newly purchased vehicle before extensive use.  I have tried to list as many details about this vehicle as I can, including known defects.  Please keep in mind this was a police/emergency vehicle as well as salvage, and may have greater wear and tear than normal vehicle.  There may be deficiencies that I am not aware of so buyers are encouraged to inspect in person.  If you are local I encourage and welcome you to come down and check out the vehicle for yourself or have an independent inspection completed PRIOR to bidding.  There will be no price adjustments or sale cancellations for failure to do so.  IT IS THE BUYERS RESPONSIBILITY TO ASK QUESTIONS AND/OR INSPECT THE VEHICLE BEFORE BIDDING AND PURCHASE.  FAILURE OF THE BUYER TO DO SO DOES NOT CONSTITUTE NON-DISCLOSURE OF DEFECTS ON THE SELLERS PART.  I am happy to answer any questions so feel free to e-mail me or call.

Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels

Thu, 24 Jan 2013

The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.

New Chevrolet Silverado to be revealed on Facebook on Thursday

Tue, 11 Dec 2012

There's not much to see here, but if you're one of those waiting for the reveal of the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500, above is the teaser image that Chevrolet posted on its Facebook page. We've seen the truck in form-fitting camo before, and even less can be made out here beyond those seriously punchy Silverado-esque fenders and the knowledge that the projector-beam headlamps teased previously do indeed work. We'll have to wait until Thursday for a full perusal of the "bold exterior design" and "careful attention given to every detail" we've been promised.
Gathering intel and rumors, magnesium and aluminum contribute to the Silverado's weight loss plan, the purported "High Country" top-tier trim will contribute to luxury pickup truck competition and profit margins and the next-generation small-block V8 will contribute to improved fuel economy. On the engine note, there have been rumors of available V6 engines, and when Facebook user John Jones asked "Where's your answer to that EcoBoost Chevy?", the Bowtie replied "stay tuned on the 13th. We think you'll be pleased...".
Along with the "Raise the Bar" tag, Chevrolet says of the Silverado, "You asked, we delivered." You can watch the reveal live on Chevrolet's Facebook page at 9:30 am EST, this Thursday, December 13. The GMC Sierra 1500 will also be there, and we'll see both in person at the Detroit Auto Show in January.

Steve McQueen's last movie car, now Pawn Stars-owned, up for auction [w/video]

Sun, 03 Feb 2013

The last car Steve McQueen ever drove in a movie is officially up for auction. The 1951 Chevrolet Styline DeLuxe Convertible you see above is now owned by none other than Rick Harrison of Pawn Stars fame, but once ferried McQueen around the set of his last film, 1980's The Hunter. That flick saw the Bullit star play a bumbling bounty hunter and didn't exactly set the box office on fire. McQueen bought the car after production wrapped, and four years later it sold at his estate sale at the Imperial Palace in Las Vegas.
Flash forward to 2003, and the convertible received a full restoration back to near-stock specifications. Hagerty Insurance estimates the car to be worth around $45,000 without the significant providence. Given its ties to one of film's most popular gearheads, the old Chevrolet could fetch up to 10 times that when it goes under the gavel in Ft Luaderdale, Florida on March 22. You can head over to the Auctions America site for more information. You can also check out the trailer for The Hunter below.
