This is an all original, unrestored, low mileage 1969 Chevrolet Impala. Paint, interior, drivetrain, etc are all original and have never been touched. This is a true survivor car that is just like they came out of the dealer in 1969. This car drives great and represents the ride of the late 60s and early 70s. It feels like you are gliding down the road, no wind noise, no squeaks, no rattles. It is a different feel than you get from modern cars that have a typically harsh ride. It really puts you back in time. The odometer show 15232 miles. The speedometer works but the odometer does not advance. With that, I don't know what the exact mileage of this car is. Based on the lack of visible wear on the carpet scuff pad under the brake pedal, the lack of wear on the brake and gas pedal, the cleanliness and lack of buildup inside of the engine, and the lack of any wear within the carburetor, my best guess is that this vehicle has no more than 35,000 original miles. The engine compartment is complete and is missing nothing. The bale on the brake master cylinder still has the plastic tag on it from the original assembly at the factory. All wiring is in perfect condition with all original connectors. I installed a rebuilt kit in the original carburetor. These Quadrajets always need bushings installed in the primary throttle shaft bores. This one was perfect with no play or evidence of any wear. The accelerator pump lever is also a common item to show wear. Again, there was no wear on this lever. The upper radiator hose is original with the original clamps. The lower hose had been changed at some point. New plugs and wires have also been installed. There is a picture through the oil fill hole that shows how clean the interior of the engine is. There is no oil buildup at all. The heads are the typical 441 castings. The engine is the 255 hp 350. The transmission is a Turbohydromatic 350. It upshifts and downshifts flawlessly. There is absolutely no slip. The transmission fluid looks and smells clean. The rear axle is a stock, non-positrac 12 bolt. I have not checked the codes but it is most likely a 3:08 ratio. Tires are newer with all season tread. The hold air just fine. The trunk in this car is flawless and speaks to the low mileage. There is no rust or damage in the trunk. The spare tire does not hold air. All original bumper jack pieces are there and in great shape except for the wing nut. It is missing. The interior of this car is just incredible. There is no visible wear on any part, The dash pad is not cracked or faded. The seats are in beautiful original condition. The front carpet is in great condition but has the appearance of some very minor fading if you look at it closely. The drivers side scuff pad shows no wear. The brake and gas pedals are also in great shape with no signs of wear. There was apparently an 8 track tape player installed under the dash, in the area of the ash tray. The mounting plate is still there. There are also what appears to be some aftermarket speakers installed on the hinge pillars between the front and rear doors. These are in great shape and are probably from the early 70s. All glass in the vehicle is original and in great shape, including the windshield. The stainless window mouldings are also in great shape. Door handles, emblems, and other chrome items are free of any pitting or corrosion. The front clip is in near perfect condition with the exception of the right lower fender. There is rust as shown in the pictures. The rear wheel wells also have a very small amount of rust as shown. The paint on this car is all original. It is only lightly oxidized and could be polished. I left it alone as I felt this car should be left untouched. This is a unique example of an all original car from another time. I have driven it around town and on the local rural roads and enjoyed it very much. You really get peoples attention with a car like this because you just don't see them around much anymore. Whoever gets this car will certainly enjoy it!

The Army goes off-roading with a hydrogen Chevy Colorado
Sun, Nov 22 2015The Chevrolet Colorado is joining the service. General Motors is working with the US Army Tank Automotive Research, Development & Engineering Center (TARDEC) to build a Colorado powered by a commercial hydrogen fuel cell stack, and the Army will use it in "extremes of daily military use for 12 months." TARDEC is the department that tests "advanced military automotive technology" and integrates them into ground systems. The aim is to see how well the benefits of a fuel cell vehicle can be adapted to the battlefield; hydrogen-powered vehicles are quiet, torquey, produce water, and can be used to provide electricity in the field. GM says the design sketch above "foreshadows" the Colorado that will go to boot camp and beyond, making it clear that this won't be the average midsize pickup. The press release below has more. Related Video: GM and U.S. Army to Demonstrate Extreme Off-Road Hydrogen Fuel Cell Chevrolet Colorado Agreement focused on proving unique utility and viability of fuel cell propulsion WARREN, Mich. 2015-11-19 – General Motors and the U.S. Army Tank Automotive Research, Development & Engineering Center (TARDEC) are modifying a Chevrolet Colorado midsize pickup truck to run on a commercial hydrogen fuel cell propulsion system and will expose the truck to the extremes of daily military use for 12 months. "Hydrogen fuel cell technology is important to GM's advanced propulsion portfolio, and this enables us to put our technology to the test in a vehicle that will face punishing military duty cycles," said Charlie Freese, executive director of GM's Global Fuel Cell Engineering activities. Fuel cell propulsion has very high low-end torque capability useful in off-road environments. It also offers exportable electric power and quiet operation, attractive characteristics to both commercial and military use. "The potential capabilities hydrogen fuel cell vehicles can bring to the Warfighter are extraordinary, and our engineers and scientists are excited about the opportunity to exercise the limits of this demonstrator," said TARDEC Director Paul Rogers. "FCVs are very quiet vehicles, which scouts, special operators and other specialties place a premium," he said. "What's more, fuel cells generate water as a by-product, something extremely valuable in austere environments." GM and TARDEC have fuel cell development and research facilities located 20 minutes apart in Pontiac and Warren, Mich.
Camaro driver clocked at 171 miles per hour
Wed, Apr 13 2016Chevy's 2016 Camaro SS is a fantastic piece of automotive engineering. It is also, apparently, very, very fast. This latter fact was perfectly illustrated when, on April 8, a Camaro SS driver was nailed in Two Harbors, Minnesota for doing 171 mph. According to WFAA, the unnamed speed demon was flying down Highway 61 near Two Harbors when Hermantown, MN Deputy Police Chief Shawn Padden clocked him at an eye-watering 171 mph. He then recorded the speeder at 168 and 141. At the time, Deputy Chief Padden was working with Minnesota State Patrol on an anti-DWI program called "Toward Zero Deaths". Padden, who was interviewed by the Duluth News Tribune, said he was surprised at the driver's sheer speed. "When he went by me, it was a blur," Padden told the News. "You get used to seeing people going 65 or 70 and what that looks like. But I've never seen anything like this. It's like a rocket on wheels." Fadden chased the Camaro down eventually, but it took some doing. To catch the Camaro, he pushed his Dodge Charger Pursuit to 135 mph just to get into range so the Camaro could see his emergency lights. The speeding driver was ticketed for careless driving, but may lose his license due to a Minnesota law that gives courts the option of revoking licenses for drivers caught doing more than 100 mph.

Diesel-powered 2020 Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra get big price cuts
Tue, Sep 8 2020General Motors is reducing the price difference between its diesel-powered light-duty pickups and their gasoline-burning counterparts, according to a recent report. As of September 3, 2020, the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and the GMC Sierra 1500 benefit from a $1,500 price cut when they're ordered with a turbodiesel under the hood. Enthusiast website GM Authority first reported the news after looking at internal documents sent to dealers across the nation. It wrote the discount applies to in-stock and in-transit units of the Silverado and the Sierra (pictured), and it added dealers will begin receiving amended window stickers on September 8. And, it's not just a quick, easy way for General Motors stores to clear out 2020 inventory. Incoming 2021 models will benefit from it, too. Chevrolet's cheapest diesel-slurping 2020 Silverado, a double-cab LT with two-wheel drive, now starts at $44,000 once a mandatory $1,595 destination charge enters the equation. For context, the same configuration costs $38,795 including destination when it's ordered with the 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder, which is the smallest and cheapest engine on the roster. Selecting the more efficient engine option costs buyers $5,205. At the other end of the spectrum, the crew-cab High Country with a standard cargo box and four-wheel drive is now priced at $59,690. Walk a block to the GMC store, and you'll need to spend between $44,470 (double-cab SLE with two-wheel drive) and $61,685 (crew-cab Denali with a regular cargo box and four-wheel drive) for a diesel-powered Sierra. It doesn't sound like either company is making major mechanical changes to the trucks for 2021. Both are powered by a 3.0-liter straight-six Duramax engine, which makes 277 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque. Rear-wheel drive and a 10-speed automatic transmission come standard, and four-wheel drive is offered at an extra cost. In its most efficient configuration, the Silverado returns 23 mpg in the city, 33 mpg on the highway, and 27 mpg in a mixed cycle, impressive numbers for a body-on-frmae pickup that's as heavy as it is capable. Ram's diesel-powered 1500 posts EPA estimates of 22, 32, and 26, respectively. Ford pledged the recently-unveiled 14th-generation F-150 will offer a turbodiesel engine, too, but its fuel economy figures are not available yet.
