 Here is my 1964 Impala SS that I have been working on here and there for the last 3 years or so. I initially picked the car up from a retired fire fighter in Chicago area who was ill and could no longer enjoy the car. After getting it home I drove her once and began removing all the fenders, doors and trunk lid and suspension. Every nut and bolt has been replaced with new, along with all of the body bushings. The belly of the car (inside & out) and frame have been coated with POR-15, and then recoated with a gloss coating. The body is painted medium aqua metallic and the top is a Cadillac pearl white tri coat. I would rate the paint a 7-8 out of 10, there are a few little imperfections that you may or may not notice in the pics and video attached. http://youtu.be/hmuZQW_MRxo There are more videos under my videos section and pictures under my photobucket link here http://s1294.photobucket.com/user/debozmail/slideshow/ 

  • Trim: All of the side trim is original and in great condition with a nice luster. The front grill has been hand polished, and the eyebrows, hood lip and lower molding has been replaced with new. The rear trim is original, besides the cove trims I replaced due to them being dinged. Headlight rings have been polished, rear tail light chrome replaced. Bumpers are original and in nice shape.
  • Suspension: All of the suspension is either chrome or painted. the front upper and lower control arms are triple plated, along with the front coil springs, tie rods, spindles steering knuckles, rear trailing arms, center link & idler and pitman arms. All of the bushings are new energy suspension bushings.. Steering has been upgraded to a solid jeep shaft to eliminate the use of the old non responsive rag joints, and is hooked to a CPP 500 steering box with a sport ratio.
  • Interior: I replaced the front seat covers and foam a few months ago. The rear seat is original, but in good condition. The entire tub of the car has been coated in por-15 and then sealed with Fatmat sound deadening material all the way up to the door glass. All of the interior trim has been polished and looks great. All (5) of the interior lights work as they should. Custom kick panels and door panels that house (6) Pioneer 3 way speakers. The rear package tray has been recovered and houses (4) Pioneer 6x9 3 ways that match the door and kick panel components. Rear water fall trim has had the grain smoothed out and chromed, along with the center speaker trim in the seat. The interior is very nice, please see the pictures and video. The speedo cluster has been swapped to a Dakota Digital, and the column is a chrome tilt that was moved forward 2 inches for extra room. The stock ones always felt too close to me. Trunk is custom and houses (2) 12" Rockford subwoofers and a Rockford amp setup under plexiglass with L.E.D's. American Auto wire update kit is installed, every wire in the car is brand new and replaced.
  • Drivetrain: I replaced the sbc motor with a ls motor equipped with Vette heads, cam and intake. Chrome headers with o2 bungs, all new coils, plug wires, black an6 fuel line etc. Transmission is a 4l65e with shiftworks shifter linkage hooked to the original shifter. Front belt system is from Dirty Dingo, and water pump, gaskets, Melling oil pump are all new. Drive shaft has the CPP  HD aluminum carrier bearing, with slip yoke at the rear end. Rear end is a Versailles with all new gaskets. Car is equipped with 4 wheel disc brakes attached to a hydroboost system out of an 05 Silverado 2500. CPP show chrome master with built in proportioning valve, all new brake lines etc. Engine harness and computer is from PSIconversions out of NJ. Pedal and tac module are hidden behind the dash. Engine bay wires have been tucked for the clean low visibility look. New gas tank, Walbro fuel pump and 60 psi Vette filter/regulator. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUaTIzjs5WE  Have the mufflers, still needs exhaust ran before I forget to add that. Plan on getting it done as soon as time permits with my schedule.
  • Wheels: *NEW*13x7 72 spoke cross laced rims with Dayton spinners and new 155/80/13 tires.

 I'm sure like most I'm forgetting some things, but at this point it's easy to tell that this was an extensive build. Feel free to message me with questions if you have them and they're not covered here. $1000 deposit due at the end of the auction and I reserve the right to end the auction early. Car is sold "as is" with no warranties implied. Serious inquiries can text 937-418-0776. Thanks for your time and viewing my car.

General Motors shaking up its marketing... again

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

One of the things that dogs the full comeback of General Motors is the instability of its marketing. That part of the automaker got yet another big shakeup today when GM confirmed what I have been tweeting for a few days - strong rumors that the Chevrolet and Cadillac ad accounts are walking to new ad agencies.
Cadillac, GM's luxury brand, is going into review from Fallon Worldwide, Minneapolis and the indications are that Campbell-Ewald, Chevy's old ad shop, will end up with most or all of it. C-E just announced that it was moving from its long-time home in Warren, MI to a new downtown Detroit office next to Ford Field, just blocks from GM.
The other shoe to drop shortly will be the shift of GM's most important brand, Chevy, from Goodby, Silverstein & Partners of San Francisco to McCann-Erickson of Troy, MI. McCann used to be the agency for Buick and GMC, as well as GM's corporate advertising, and has retained some pieces of business over the last few years. Sources have even told us that it was McCann that did a lot of the creative work on Chevy's new ad platform, Find New Roads. (Not to be confused with a former McCann tagline for Saab, "Find Your Own Road.")

Was the C7 Corvette cut from Beyonce's Super Bowl halftime show?

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Someone was bound to receive a free 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray during the Super Bowl XLVII festivities; it just wasn't who we thought it was going to be. Despite a report back in December that superstar Beyoncé Knowles would be getting an all-new Corvette during her halftime performance, that turned out not to be the case. Joe Flacco, starting quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, did in fact win a Corvette for his MVP performance.
So what transpired that prevented Beyoncé from rolling on stage in the new Chevrolet? Anyone who knows isn't telling, but according to Yahoo! Autos, General Motors said that for one reason or another a deal "did not work out," and it appears to have been an eleventh-hour change. Regardless of who's to blame or what prevented this from happening, we're sure Chevy has had no problems getting attention for the C7 Corvette since it was introduced last month.

GM dealers unhappy about pickup prices

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

The backlash is beginning. Following General Motors' price hike of the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra last week, dealers across the country are expressing their ire over increasing prices in the face of rebates and discounts on trucks from Ford and Ram.
Speaking to Automotive News, Sam Pilato, the general manager at Dimmitt Chevrolet in Clearwater, FL, Silverados are "selling very poorly." W. Carrol Smith, the president of Monument Chevrolet in the heart of truck country, Texas, said, "[GM's] position is that the vehicle stands on its own and it doesn't need a bigger rebate. That's not what the market is telling us."
According to AN, that's the general attitude amongst Chevy and GMC dealers across the country, where the twin pickups are getting butchered in sales by competitors offering up to $9,000 off their sticker prices. Part of the problem for GM is that its trucks are arriving on the market near the end of the current F-150's lifecycle, a fact that Ford has taken advantage of.
