This is a 1962 Chevrolet Impala Sport Coupe in bright red with red interior. This car has a 327 V-8 with double hump heads and 300  horsepower. The transmission is a four speed manual. It has power steering and power brakes. The interior has bench seats. The owner  has added a trio of gauges under the dash, a tachometer and an AM/FM/Cassette stereo in the dash. Dash was not cut. The owner had a  shop recently repaint the car and they did a great job. The door handles exterior and interior and some trim pieces were replaced. The  car fires right up and runs well. The steering is tight and the car has no rattles; rides smooth. The wheels and tires are new - 17X7  wheels on the front and 18X9 wheels on the back. The exhaust is all new with 2-inch pipes and dual Flowmaster mufflers. The bumpers  and stainless are original and have aged. Some trim has dings. The owner is a buddy of mine who has decided to sell it to buy another  car. He doesn't own a computer - email me for his number if you have questions about the car, want to make an offer or want to set up a  time to see and go for a ride in the Impala. This car only has 63,179 miles - title pictured below says mileage is actual. The previous  owner bought the car in 1996 when it had 52K miles on it. This is a nice car that just needs a new home.

The car was painted by a pro shop. Body work is very nice.

GM recalling 135,000 SUVs with plastic jacks that can break

Sat, Jun 19 2021

General Motors is recalling 135,400 compact crossovers because their emergency jack can break under load. The problem occurs when the jack — which is plastic — isn't positioned correctly as detailed in the owner's manual. This can cause the jack to fracture. If the jack breaks and the vehicle collapses, there's a risk of injury or death, according to an NHTSA recall alert. The recall involves the 2020-22 Buick Encore GX and 2021-22 Chevrolet Trailblazer. A GM test driver discovered the problem when he broke a jack during a durability test on a Trailblazer. GM started investigating in April and found 21 claims of jack failures, including one reported injury. "This jack design may not be sufficiently robust against fractures if improperly or incorrectly positioned on the vehicle frame by the user," a NHTSA safety report said. GM will start notifying vehicle owners July 26. It will provide free replacement jacks that are made of metal.   Featured Gallery 2021 Buick Encore GX View 21 Photos Recalls Buick Chevrolet GM

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica

Fri, 03 Aug 2012

If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.

Feds open investigation into Chevy Express, Ford Freestar rust issues

Wed, 28 Dec 2011

'Tis the season... for road salt. And with that, comes rust. And what does rust bring? Well, for Ford and General Motors, a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation. According to The Detroit News, NHTSA is looking into potential recalls issues with Chevrolet Express vans and Ford Freestar minivans.
The feds have received five complaints that rust has caused leaking fuel filler pipes on 2003 Express vans. Separately, seven complaints have been filed over excessive rust in the rear wheel wells of 2004 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans. The Freestar and Monterey went out of production in 2007. Neither issue has resulted in any crashes or injuries, according to the report.
