This is a very nice, rare, and solid 1960 Chevy 2 door Impala bubble top. It is an older restoration that still shows very well. The car was completely disassemble to paint it this very attractive but non-factory color scheme. It is literally impossible to tell it was ever any other color. The color varies with the surrounding light levels. In the pictures I listed it appears to be more of a blue color than it actually is. In reality, it is more of a dark teal color in most lighting, but it is a very attractive color no matter what the surrounding light levels does to vary it. There is zero rust on this car as of now, the bottom is very clean, the door bottoms are solid, rockers solid, fenders, quarters, etc. but I can not honestly say that it has never had rust repair work done, and I do not know what State the car originated from. I do know that any replacement panels must have been professionally done as there are no signs of patchwork welds anywhere. It has all new weatherstripping. New tinted glass. All new reproduction interior. New gauges mounted to the same dash holes where the original gauges were. AM/ FM radio CD player in glove box. All new suspension, brakes, brake lines, etc. Power steering and brakes. All new polished American Torque thrust wheels and new B.F.Goodrich TA radial tires. The chrome and stainless trim is all in very nice shape but not newly re-plated. There are signs of where some of the trim was straightened out and polished, and the drivers side tail light bezel still has some dings and scratches on the edge of it. Car comes with matching color fender skirts, original factory steel wheels and hubcaps, front fender ornaments, and other misc, parts. Originally the car was built up as a 4 speed car and then later changed to the automatic. I do have every single piece to put it back to a 4 speed car, including Muncie 4 speed trans with Hurst shifter, bell housing, clutch, flywheel, all clutch rods, pedals, springs, drive shaft, etc. for an additional $875.00 if that would interest you. Currently, it is running a rebuilt 700-R4 over drive automatic with, now get this, a rebuilt 409 dual quad big block engine. Although it is not an original dual quad engine, it was built to similar specifications as one using a 1963 block and heads. It fires right up, choke works, and it cruises down the road like a new car. It also has a 3:55 factory posi rear end with the big "P" on the case. I was told it gets over 20 miles to the gallon on the highway, but have not verified that.

Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4
Wed, 29 May 2013Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!
2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit
Tue, 15 Jan 2013There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
Chevy Corvette Stingray picks up another award, this time from Automobile
Mon, 18 Nov 2013The new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray has picked up another buff book accolade after capturing Road and Track's Performance Car of the Year award. The seventh-generation of America's sports car (sorry Viper, Mustang, et al.) has been named Automobile Magazine's Automobile of the Year.
Automobile's award to the Corvette over competitors is the mirror image of its rival Motor Trend, which named the Cadillac CTS its car of the year over the C7. The CTS was, according to the Automobile team, the closest contender to the mighty Stingray. Great news all around for General Motors it seems.
As for what pushed the Corvette past its distant, four-door cousin, Automobile commended its excellent, 6.2-liter V8 calling the car's performance "simply awesome" while also remarking that it is easier to drive fast than ever before thanks to steering and chassis tweaks. Following a theme set by other publications, there were also plaudits for the interior, of all things, with the buff book complimenting the car's ergonomics and material quality, while also praising the standard seats.
