Rare 1965 Chevy Impala Station Wagon W/ Factory 396 Motor on 2040-cars
Richmond, California, United States
Vehicle Title:Clear
Drive Type: RWD
Make: Chevrolet
Mileage: 0
Model: Impala
Exterior Color: Evening Orchid
Trim: Impala
Interior Color: Black
This great looking wagon with a super rare factory 396 motor and Turbo 350 transmission is mostly all there, but needs a full restoration and IS NOT RUNNING. There are some rust issues, which can be seen in the photos, but at least most of the floor, except the front passenger side, is in good shape, as is the spare tire well and the rockers. However, as is the case with the majority of these sixties Chevy long roofs, there is rust along the lower portion of the side rear windows, and the roof has also just started to show some rust through along the drivers side, but not in the gutters. Amazingly, though, because the rear window is missing, there isn't any rust or rust through at the bottom of the tail gate. Its original color is Evening Orchid and the car also has a/c, which is a plus, but most of it is missing from the engine compartment but. It still has it's luggage rack, though, and even the optional airfoils around the back window as can be seen in the photos. The chrome is in very good condition, as is the trim, but some of the trim is missing at the lower part of the back fenders. Other than the missing rear window, all of the other glass seems to be in good shape and the car isn't all dinged up either. I have no idea what shape the motor is in, other than it's original and needs to be rebuilt, along with the transmission. I've included some photos of the car with the wheels I had on it....but that I'm keeping....to show how cool this car can look and, in fact, if I didn't need the money for another venture, I'd be keeping it. And, talk about rare, just Google this car and see what comes up for sale.

Race Recap: 2013 Twelve Hours of Sebring, cakewalk up front, grindfest out back [w/spoilers]
Tue, 19 Mar 2013This year's 12 Hours of Sebring wasn't exactly a foregone conclusion because we're still talking about racing, and anything can happen when the speeds are as high as the adrenaline and the desire. But we're still talking about Audi bringing it's two top-spec racers - and its huge budget and its nearly neurotic attention to detail - to a race that it uses as a test bed for The 24 Hours of Le Mans and as a way to open the endurance racing season with a victory.
Besides, 12 hours is a long time, especially at Sebring, and things didn't go all Audi's way. On top of that, although it was a pretty quiet race, behind the Audis things got even grimier, with plenty of battles, plenty of mechanical issues, and the new BMW Z4 GTE and Viper GTS-R being race tested. Oh, and that brand new chromed-out DeltaWing...
Chevrolet Camaros at SEMA are a mobile accessory catalog
Wed, 06 Nov 2013Chevy's goal at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas this week seems to be to show as much of its Performance and Accessories catalog as possible. That's why it brought three different Camaros - two with V8s and one powered by a V6 - with all of the best goodies from the catalog already fitted.
We gave a more in-depth recap of the Performance Camaro V8 Concept, the Performance Camaro V6 Concept and the Performance Garage Concept already, but we figured you'd like a short recap for each. It should be noted, though, that you can order all of the items you see here for your own Camaro, so be sure to take a long, hard look at our live galleries, just in case you're in the market for some mods.
Essentially, the Performance Garage Concept and the Performance V8 Concept are the same car - the only difference is that the later features a whole host of aesthetic tweaks in addition to its aftermarket, shorty exhaust headers and 2.75-inch exhaust. (The Performance Garage Concept has been usefully placed on its side; the better to see the new parts added to the vehicle.) The Performance V6 Concept is notable because, despite being a V6, there's no shortage of performance goodies fitted. All three of the Performance Camaros benefit from items from the Camaro ZL1, which can also be ordered through the catalog.
Corvette Stingray Convertible images mysteriously appear on web, so we add our own
Tue, 22 Jan 2013It was inevitable that we'd see the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray topless at some point, but that didn't make us any less interested when a pair of supposedly leaked official images showed up on theautoinsiderblog.com last week. We posted them on our Facebook page, but held off reporting on them here until we could get a little more information.
Those images, which feature a dark red car on a sterile black studio background, supposedly first appeared on the website of diecast model maker Maisto. A Chevrolet spokesman has been reported saying that they are "not official images released by Chevrolet PR," which isn't a denial they're the real deal, but neither is it a confirmation.
Close examination of the photos suggest they could be official shots of the Corvette Stingray Convertible, and while some have doubted their authenticity due to a lack of vents (which were seen on the C7s that debuted in Detroit last week), it could be that the images are of a base model car without the Z51 package that doesn't require the extra venting and cooling.
