1966 Chevrolet Impala Ss Coupe True Super Sport on 2040-cars
Kearneysville, West Virginia, United States
|
1966 Impala SS This is a true Super Sport (see vin plate in picture to verify) and is the perfect car whether you are looking for an easy restoration project or just a weekend cruiser that will turn heads. You will not find a better Impala to restore or even for a quick flip! These cars are rare and one in this condition is all but impossible to find and only has 82K original miles. This beast drives great, has power steering, has NO rust anywhere and body is straight. The previous owner put it on a lift so I could look at the undercarriage and I tried my hardest to find rust and simply couldn’t as it was ordered with a factory undercoat that really did it’s job and was always garage kept. The only thing that wasn’t coated and did rust was the trunk pan and it was cut out and professionally replaced by the previous owner. It currently sits with the original 283 motor with a Edelbrock intake manifold and dual 4 barrel carb it also has a custom stainless dual exhaust. It runs great and I have driven it on several 2 hour trips with no worries. The seats, carpets, and vinyl top have all been professionally restored to factory original just a few days ago so the interior is 85% completely restored. All the electric windows work flawlessly but the switch on the passenger side does need to be replaced. Issues: Driver side brake light out. I replaced the bulb and the blinkers don’t work so it’s an electrical issue but with these cars that’s an easy fix. Rubber window and door seals need to be replaced. There is a small ding in the front grill but my body guy says he could easily work it out and replacement isn’t necessary, see attached picture. The interior other than floors and seats does need restoration. Lots of the chrome inside can be restored but some does need replacing. Everything is functional but some work and cash is needed to get everything showroom perfect. The motor runs great but there is a small oil leak and if I were going to keep it I would rebuild the engine and paint it and clean up the engine compartment just to make everything look pretty. There are some trim pieces that need replacing and other minor cosmetic work but overall this car is in unbelievable condition. The only reason I am getting rid of this car is that I had bought this car because it was too good to pass up and did plan on restoring it but I just found the car I really want to restore for sale and want to get the money out of this so I can buy that. Vin number shows that this is a true Super Sport. The average price for this car is $19,834. We are selling this one for well below that for an above average car.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
C7 Corvette makes inaugural ad appearance in Chevy's first spot with new slogan
Mon, 11 Feb 2013Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" tagline has finally been run into the ground, replaced with the Bowtie brand's "Find New Roads" slogan that's part of parent General Motors' plan to unify its everyday brand's marketing efforts worldwide. The new Chevrolet campaign was ushered in on prime time last night during the Grammy Awards on CBS, and the first spot, a 90-second full-line ad, also marks the first appearance of the 2014 Corvette Stingray in a commercial.
Being a full-line ad, the commercial is composed of vignettes centered on different vehicles in the brand's lineup. The all-new 2014 Impala also makes its first commercial appearance in dapper fashion, and time is spent on a skateboarding Sonic and a bouquet of brightly colored Spark hatchbacks driven by fashionable women. The ad starts and ends with Chevy's green halo car, the Volt, along with a young girl with her robotic dog (yes, really).
Chevrolet's "Runs Deep" campaign got off to a rocky start in the fall of 2010, but it did last for a couple of years with some tweaks. This new one, "Find New Roads" seems more intent on drawing new customers into the fold than the outgoing tagline, which seemed to play more toward the brand faithful. It admittedly reminds us more than a little the short-lived "Find Your Own Road" Saab motto (which, we note, was conceived while the Swedish brand was under GM's control), but no matter, we still think it's got more long-term potential than "Runs Deep."
Pushing Back: GM expanding Chevrolet into Korea, Daewoo out
Thu, 29 Apr 2010Chevrolet Camaro goes to South Korea - Click above for high-res image
General Motors decided several years ago to begin heavily promoting Chevrolet as its global mainstream brand even in markets where its existing brands like Opel and Daewoo were a dominant force. Today, at the Busan Motor Show in South Korea, GM Daewoo president Mike Arcamone announced that the Camaro would lead the way in GM's efforts to market Chevrolet in South Korea.
For now at least Chevrolet and Daewoo-branded vehicles will coexist in the Korean market. However, while we were in China last week GM officials told us that the Daewoo brand, which has been somewhat tainted by past quality issues, would eventually be phased out in favor of Chevrolet. When the new Aveo launches next year it will likely be badged as a Chevrolet even though GM Daewoo is in charge of engineering the car.
