You are bidding on our 1964 Chevy Impala 4-door hard top. This does NOT have the window side posts and is what people who know their Impalas would call the 'Gangster Ride'.

The interior seat covers are rough but I am pretty sure the original green seats are fine, the black seat covers just need replaced. The headliner is the 'air conditioning' headliner and it is in great condition (I think it has a small puncture hole of some sort in the back but it is GOOD!) The carpets could be replaced but they are not in bad shape.

There are some issues but it would be a great fixer up. It does run but needs an exhaust.

The trunk has a red liner in it right now, so that is all that is showing in the pictures. The hinges were messed up at one time and one of the previous owners attempted to turn it into a suicidal trunk but it was never finished.

We did have all working lights until after this (hopefully I can say) passed winter, our business neighbor's plow driver plowed a ton of snow behind it causing all but 2 of the back taillights to get broken.

It is a great rat rod project or would make a cool daily driver. We baught it at the Rebel Run Rod & Custom Nationals show in 2012 and drove it around until the beginning of last fall. We put it up to do some work on it over the winter but we just have too many projects going on right now and don't have the time to put the work into it.

I was going to use this as a parts car for my 2-door but it was just too nice of a car to destroy like that. (And we have a 6-year-old that is probably going to be really mad at us when this car sells).

PLEASE COME LOOK AT THIS VEHICLE BEFORE YOU BID. I understand that some of you checking out this auction are far away and may be having it shipped to you but this car is being sold AS IS and it is a fixer uper! The last time we sold a truck on here, the guy never came and checked it out and caused me many tears over a truck that I LOVED! That I would NOT have parted with except we were getting a new building and needed money to do so. Because of this, I can not stress enough AS IS so PLEASE come check it out before you place a bid. IT DOES NEED WORK AND IT HAS SOME ISSUES but it is WORTH the investment!!

The basic book of this car (in a #5 condition - which means something along the lines of it runs and that is it...it is probably closer to a #4...maybe even a #3 with the condition it is in, but will have to be the buyer's own judgement) is $4200 and that is not including the a/c extra % or any of the other %'s increasing the value. We just left our book with someone right now but there are (I believe) 2 - 15% more qualifiers for this car that the car has.

If you have any questions, please just let us know. I know there are several more pictures we could have taken, we just forgot. If I can add more in the near future, I will try and do so but at this point, our body shop is running full speed ahead (income tax time always gets like that) and I don't know if I will have the time, but I will try.

Payment/pickup is expected within a week of the end of this listing. If you can't make it, just let us know before hand so we can make arrangements. The vehicle can be picked up upon a clear payment...or bring cash with you when you come. We can accept Visa/MasterCard but it is a 10% charge to do so. We prefer cash, certified check or money order, or PayPal.

If I have forgotten something, please let me know. I am only human. AND AGAIN IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS PLEASE CONTACT US FIRST!! If you would like to call us, please call or text 419-296-7937 I have a problem with my microphone and have had several complaints from people on the phone not being able to hear me so if you would like to actually speak to someone, you may want to try our land line at 567-712-2285 (you can not text this number...it's a 'house phone').

Thanks for checking out our Impala. Happy Bidding!!

Recharge Wrap-up: Chevy teases Bolt driving range, China pursues EV subsidy cheaters

Tue, Sep 13 2016

Chevy is teasing the Bolt's driving range, which it is set to reveal on Tuesday. It will certainly be able to travel more than 200 miles between charges, but the second and third digits in that value, as it stands today, are still question marks. On its Facebook page, Chevrolet is asking fans to try to guess the official range. Of course, Tesla fans have already started posting their own snide remarks in the comments. Chevy fans are certainly hoping to see the Bolt's range eclipse that of Tesla's upcoming Model 3, which the California-based automaker puts at 215 miles. See Chevy's post on Facebook to make your own guess, or check back there (or here at AutoblogGreen) for the official number once it is unveiled. Fuel cell company PowerCell Sweden says it has signed an agreement with a Chinese company to make range extenders for commercial trucks. The unnamed Chinese customer has placed an order and signed a memorandum of understanding with PowerCell Sweden, and the partners will develop methanol reformer fuel cell range extenders for electric distribution trucks. "Our unique expertise in fuel cells and reformer technology is receiving an increasing attention worldwide and we are truly pleased to get another Chinese order," says PowerCell Sweden Sales Director Andreas Boden. Read more at Green Car Congress, or from PowerCell. China is accusing major automakers of violating EV subsidy rules. After the country's Ministry of Finance penalized five companies with fines and, in one case, revocation of production license for subsidy cheats, China has since named 20 more potential violators, including Nissan, Hyundai, JAC, and a subsidiary of BYD. Of the first five companies to be punished under the investigation, Suzhou Gemsea Coach Manufacturing is having its production license revoked, while four others, including a subsidiary of Chery, are being fined for about half of the subsidies received. The scandal is bad new for China's subsidy program, which has helped spur sales of plug-in vehicles. Read more from Fortune, or at Hybrid Cars.

Recharge Wrap-up: Free chargers for Canadian ELR buyers, Renovo gets funding for EV supercar

Thu, Sep 18 2014

Chevrolet offers versions of its Express passenger van with B20 biodiesel and E85 capability. Customers can buy the van with the Duramax turbodiesel V8, which is compatible with the 20-percent biodiesel blend. There is also a FlexFuel V8, which can use the 85-percent ethanol gasoline blend. It's a great option for shuttling the whole soccer team to practice using renewable fuels. Read more at Domestic Fuels. Early buyers of the Cadillac ELR in Canada will get a 240-volt charger installed at their home for free. It should help convince some buyers to adopt the range extended luxury EV. Cadillac's Chief Marketing Officer Uwe Ellinghaus says, "Professional installation of the fastest home-charging unit is a natural way to mark the introduction of ELR to the luxury market." Read more in the press release below. Renovo has received venture capital funding from California-based True Ventures to build its Coupe electric supercar. The impressive EV, with its 500 horsepower and 1,000 pound-feet of torque, is an inspiring vehicle built by a promising company, according to its financial backers. Toni Schneider of True Ventures says that Renovo has "created incredibly advanced technology and a beautiful machine that is well positioned to disrupt the automotive market." Read more in the press release below. Renault says it will build its Fluence ZE electric car in China for an unnamed brand, pending government approval. Chief Executive Carlos Ghosn announced the plan at a test drive event in France on Monday. Renault has a partnership with Dongfeng Motors to build and sell its cars in China. Read more at Reuters. Germany has lifted its ban on Uber. While the German court believes the ride-hailing service is operating illegally without proper licensing for drivers, it says Taxi Deutschland waited too long to file the case against Uber. The taxi association plans to appeal the decision soon. See more in the video below, and read more at The New York Times. A new report from UC Davis claims that a global expansion of public transit could save 1,700 megatons of carbon dioxide yearly and over $100 trillion by 2050. A "high-shift scenario" would be necessary, wherein governments invest in rail and clean buses, expand biking and walking infrastructure and shift focus away from projects that encourage car use. This shift to public transit would especially be important in the US, China and India. Read more in the press release below.
