Rear Suspension: GM 8.5" 10-Bolt from 2nd gen Camaro, stock '53 leaf springs, 1" lowering blocks

Body: Clean original body, decklid smoothed, pass door handle shaved, never completed drives side. Hood peak started but not finished. Has some minor rust on rear lower quarters and panel below decklid, as well as front floor pans, but easy fix. No rust anywhere else. Have all trim pieces including extra pieces. Taillights are '54 chrome bezels with aftermarket Lee bubble lenses. Headlights are original bezels and new headlights.

Interior: Original bench seats, recovered in the 90's with blue fabric/velour, looks decent. No carpet, headliner is original and needs to be replaced but have all bows, no door panels, but have door panel trim pieces, arm rests, and backer panels to be recovered or used as pattern. Have misc Bel-Air interior trim pieces to dress up the interior as well. Chrome garnish moldings in driver quality, dash is complete minus radio, have ashtray and glovebox. Complete instrument cluster. Stewart Warner fuel level gauge works. Good clean original glass throughout, only vent windows show age, all glass rubber in decent shape. Door hinge pins rebushed and open & close nicely.

Wheels/Tires: Stock 15"x6" Steel Wheels with chrome "spacer" caps. BF Goodrich 6.70-15 Bias Ply Wide White Wall Tires in great shape. Not many miles, but are showing age from sitting.

Misc: New Brass/Copper Aftermarket Radiator, New Hoses, New Belts, New Fluids, Oil Filter Relocation Kit, Dual Reservior Master Cylinder under floor, lots of extra parts. Have all bumpers, trim, extra front grille, misc trim pieces, all fasteners, all factory removed parts and extras.

Other: The alternator was robbed off this car and used on another vehicle, it was a Delco 10si, I might have another one I will toss in if I can find it. The brake master cyl was removed to fit new hoses and never reinstalled, two bolts and the hoses and it's done. It has speed bleeders on the front brakes for one-man bleeding. The oil filter relocation kit was to clear the stock '89 exhaust manifolds and was never mounted permanent, it could easily be mounted, or removed as the filter clears the manifolds fine. The exhaust was never hooked up to the manifolds. Was planning to build custom headers and a new exhaust system altogether, but didnt get that far. Easy to connect the pipes to the manifolds. The manifolds are original '89 with smog ports that were welded up, I have a set of identical manifolds without the smog ports that look better but are not installed. The firewall was smoothed, air vents left intact and they do work. Headlights, Taillights, Brake Lights, and Ignition all work. Car will need a new battery. I will include all extra parts and pieces I have for this car.

This is an easy project and can be put back on the road with a weekend of tinkering. Finish the body & paint and toss the interior back in and have a fine custom car that can be driven anywhere.

This car was a stalled project. In 2007 it got the engine/trans installed, rebuilt suspension, wiring, etc etc etc, and was running & driving in 2008, but never saw more than a few miles to work out the bugs. It got put on the backburner to work on other projects and has sat undriven since then, but was started every couple of months since. It has always been stored indoors, hasn't spent a night outside since we got it in 2007. This was an Oklahoma car, so the body is in decent condition. The title is a clear Oklahoma Title.

I'm sure I am forgetting things, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask via messaging and I will reply ASAP.

The car is located in North Austin, Texas. Will need to be towed away. No refunds, no returns, sold as-is.

 

**************************PHOTOS OF EXTERIOR WERE TAKEN WHEN THIS CAR WAS PULLED OUT OF MY SHOP THE DAY I MOVED, IT WAS PUT INTO THE NEW GARAGE ON THE SAME DAY. PLEASE EXCUSE THE DUST. I WILL TAKE NEW PHOTOS IN THE NEXT DAY OR SO AND WILL UPDATE THIS AD WITH THEM ASAP, THANKS.*****************************

2014 Chevrolet Impala [w/video]

Fri, 15 Mar 2013

Can A Fleet Queen Become a Fullsize King?
On paper, the Chevrolet Impala is a pretty strong seller, posting annual sales that have hovered right around 170,000 units for the last two years, but it only takes one trip to practically any rental car agency to discover where the majority of those sales have come from. In fact, General Motors told Autoblog that a full 70 percent of Impala sales last year went to fleet companies for things like rental cars and government vehicles. Logic tells us that this is neither good for resale values nor name equity, so Chevrolet is getting ready to roll out an all-new Impala with improved comfort, styling and technology, hoping to turn the tables on its retail-to-fleet ratio.
Chevrolet's sedans have come on quite strong in the last few months with the introduction of the Cruze diesel and the SS sedan, but while these will likely be low-volume sellers, there's more pressure for the new Impala to perform well as GM looks to slash fleet sales and compete with the wide variety of full-size sub-luxury sedans. Riding on a platform shared with the Buick LaCrosse and Cadillac XTS, the 2014 Impala will compete against the Hyundai Azera, Ford Taurus and Toyota Avalon on the more traditional side, while also looking to take a bite out of somewhat sportier models like the Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger twins and the Nissan Maxima. We headed to sunny San Diego to see if this totally new Impala can stand on its own without the assistance of fleet companies and rental agencies. [w/video

Pics Aplenty: Meet the 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra [w/poll]

Thu, 13 Dec 2012

Today was a pretty big day for General Motors, debuting the all-new Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra light-duty pickup trucks ahead of their official showcase at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. And now that the dust has settled at GM's big reveal event, we've had a chance to snap dozens of photos of the new pickup pair from every angle.
We already told you the important bits earlier today (click here in case you missed it), but let's recap. Under the hood are three new engines - a 4.3-liter V6, 5.3-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8 (you know, a version of the small-block that'll also be found under the hood of the C7 Corvette), all mated to six-speed automatic transmissions. The 2014 model year marks the return of the Z71 off-road package with Rancho shocks, front tow hooks and beefier underbody protection. Inside, there's a host of new technology and a greater focus on better quality and refinement.
Some of the nitty-gritty specifics (like engine output numbers and fuel economy) have yet to be revealed, and since we haven't driven the finished products yet, it's hard to say how these trucks will fare against rivals like the Ram 1500 and Ford F-150. For now, we can only judge these two books by their covers, and while we do like the designs of the new trucks, we Autoblog staffers are torn on exactly which one looks best.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
