Up For Sale is a Solid 1965 Chevy Impala SS 327 300hp car. This car can be a driver or resto project and is wll worth saving.  This car was driven daily until a few years ago and now just gets driven occasionally.Tis car has good road and traffic manors such as does not overheat and idles well.  I have broken down the basic description of the categories below.

Drivetrain: 

    327 V-8 4 brl., Holley 650 double pumper,  Edelbrock aluminum Intake,  HEI Distributor mated to a MSD 6AIgnition,  Headers connected to true dual  exhaust and Flowmster mufflers.  The camshaft has been changed to a Crane .480/.280 that gives it a nice thumpy sound and the engine runs great with no smoke or oil usage.

  Turbo 350 automatic transmission that shifts well

   12 Bolt non Posi rear with unknown gear ratio

   4 Wheel non power drum brakes

   14X7 American Racing Torque Thrust wheels on Radial tires that have about 75% tread Left 

Exterior:

  As you can see in the pictures the car is very straight and solid although there are some rust issues that need to be addressed to restore the car.  The frame of the car is super solid and has no rust issues.  The rear quarters need to be replaced with the outer rear wheel housings.  I do have a passenger quarter skin that will go to the new owner of the car. The trunk floor was repaired several years ago and in my opinion to do the car right I would replace the trunk floor.  The interior floor is in good condition.  There are a few places on the lower door skins that need attention as well.  One positive thing about this car is the doors shut like butter, silky smooth and all the glass in the car is in good condition.  The front fenders are in great condition as well.  To my knowledge this car has been repainted once about twenty years ago the factory color.  There is rust in the rear header panel under the back panel that needs to be replaced although the inner structure of the car is solid.  The hood has rust holes and I would replace that as well along with the header panel.  The chrome on this car is in excellant condition and even though not installed in the pictures I have all emblems and moldings.  The front and rear bumper are laser straight and in good condition.  I have seen far worse cars restored and am trying to give an honest overview of this car.

Interior:

  This car came from the factory with white bucket seats and console.  It has the original seats, black carpet door panels, console and they show there age.  The interior is complete with the exeption of the clock and one other gauge in the console and the rear package tray.  I have installed an aftermarket am/fm/cd player mounted in the glove box that play through 6x9's in the rear deck for music. Also there is an Autometer Tach mounted to the steering column.  The interior chrome is in excellant condition and would just need a good polishing. 

 

  In summary this is a great piece of American history and would make anyone proud to drive or restore.  Lets face the facts there not making any more of these classics!.  Ive tried to give an honest description of the car and anyone can feel free to email me and ask questions.  I have a Clear Florida title and car will not be released until funds are recieved. It is the buyers responsibility to pay for and arange shipping although I can deliver to a terminal close by if need be.    Thanks and good luck bidding!

Read This: Auto Extremist advocates for Corvette as brand with multiple models [w/poll]

Fri, 25 Jan 2013

The 2014 Chevrolet Corvette really grinds Peter De Lorenzo's gears. Or, more accurately, the self-anointed Auto Extremist has an issue with what he sees as mismanagement of the legendary sports car by General Motors executives. In a new editorial on his website, De Lorenzo argues it's time to split Corvette off from Chevrolet to create an all-new brand, complete with a model range with at least three new takes on the sports car. Capable of fully leveraging the successes of the Corvette Racing program and brandishing the full might of GM's technical prowess, the Corvette brand would theoretically give Porsche something to sweat over.
Sure, that sounds like a party, but given GM's troubled track record when it comes to launching (let alone managing) brands, we say that's slippery slope that could just as easily end with the whole Corvette franchise in the scrap bin. Either way, the notion is certainly an interesting one. Head over to Auto Extremist to take in the full editorial, and then let us know what you think in Comments. Should GM split off its most storied nameplate?

GM throttles back Chevy Malibu, Buick LaCrosse production over swollen inventories

Wed, 06 Feb 2013

As inventory of the Chevrolet Malibu and Buick LaCrosse continues to pile up, General Motors will be idling its Fairfax Assembly Plant for two weeks, according to Automotive News. This move comes about a month after the plant was shut down for three weeks in late December and early January for the same reason. As of January 31, the GM had a 94-day supply of Malibu stock while the LaCrosse was a little worse with a 117-day supply.
Just last week, GM announced that it would be investing $600 million in upgrading this plant, but it's unclear what future plans the company has in store for Fairfax considering slow sales of both the plant's models. We do expect a refreshed and more luxurious LaCrosse shortly and an early design update for the Malibu to be announced at some point this year, although we have had no official word as to when either will happen.

GM 6.2L V8 claims most powerful light-duty truck engine title

Thu, 12 Sep 2013

General Motors has officially captured the horsepower crown for mainstream pickup trucks with its 6.2-liter V8. The big mill, available in both the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, comes to market with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque, handily outdoing its two cross-town competitors, Ram (5.7-liter V8, 395 ponies and 407 lb-ft) and Ford (6.2-liter V8, 411 hp and 434 lb-ft).
The new GM 6.2 will take a bit of an investment, though. Those that want the extra thrust will need to go with either the LTZ or High Country trims from the Chevy, or the SLT and Denali trims from GMC, which are the two highest trim levels for the respective vehicles. Trim levels aside, if you're in the business of towing, GM has you covered. Optioned with the 6.2-liter V8 and the Max Trailering Package, owners will be able to pull 12,000 pounds, a hugely impressive figure.
We still aren't certain as to what sort of economy the new engine will get, but it'll probably be a bad bet for the fuel conscious. As for availability, expect to see the 6.2-liter trucks in showrooms later in the fall.
