Up for auction is my 1962 Impala SS. This car is a true, numbers matching SS. The exterior trim code is 936 Ermine White. The interior trim code is 845 Aqua Bucket Seat. The first 6 digits of the vin, 21847L, means this car is a true 1962 SS Hard Top built in the Los Angeles CA factory. This car has been rebuilt mechanically and modified for more driver comfort and drivability. The original 327 has been rebuilt completely using 210 hardened valves so you can run unleaded fuel. It also has a Comp Cams mild cam "12-211-2" with a .470 valve lift. The carb has been rebuilt as well. The radiator is a new custom built aluminum radiator from CG&J in Gladsden AL. The transmission is a freshly rebuilt 700r connected to a new 3.73 rear end. The brakes are new all around with front disc brakes from Hubbard's. The steering rack has been replaced with a CPP 500 p/s box and new intermediate shaft. Springs and shocks are MOOG with all new bushings front and rear. The front A-arms have also been replaced with CPP tubular A-arms for better handling. The car has a 1" drop and has a great stance. The car is a factory A/C car and I have upgraded to a Vintage Air Gen IV system. It's ice cold and the fan puts out far more air than the original. The gauges are upgraded versions from Classic Instruments. They are the "G" series and match the car perfectly. The wheels are American Racing Torque Thrust. They are Billet and are 18" front/20" rear. Tires are Nitto 235/40/R18 in the front and 275/35/R20 in the rear. All work on the car was completed in November 2013. Since the rebuild I have put just under 2,000 miles on the car. Everything has been dialed in and it runs, drives, turns, and stops like a new car. The steering has no play and the front shows very little body roll when cornering.

Cosmetically, the paint is in fair condition and appears to be mostly original. There is lacquer checking on every panel except the left rear quarter panel. The paint is still glossy though and shows well. It has a great patina to it and isn't noticeable until you get close to the car. The body is rust free and shows as a California-built car that spent most of its life in a dry climate. The bumpers are original and have some pitting and a couple small dings. The emblems, mirrors, doors handles, and window chrome look new. The glass is the original tinted glass to the car and is also in great shape. On the interior- the seats, carpet, door panels, rear panels, parcel shelf, console, steering wheel, and knobs are all restored or new. The headliner is original and is the "star" pattern. The dash is in exception shape and has a deep shine to it. You can choose to repaint it or keep it in its patina. I would encourage any serious buyer to come see/drive this car. You will not be disappointed. I will consider swapping for a Corvette. Corvette. If you have any questions or pic requests please don't hesitate to ask. I can email pictures of the complete rebuild. Buyer will get a photo album of the restoration and a binder with all receipts.THIS CAR WILL BE AT THE ACCA AUTOFAIR AT CHARLOTTE MOTOR SPEEDWAY SEPT. 18-21. Call Seth at 704-651-5349. Please leave a message, no texts.

Ford Police Interceptors dominate Michigan State Police testing

Tue, Nov 1 2016

Once again, Ford Motor Company builds the fastest police vehicles. The Blue Oval touted the news in an official release following Michigan State Police and Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department testing. Ford did very well. Except for one acceleration metric – zero to 10 miles per hour Â– the Blue Oval's Taurus and Explorer-based cop cars were the quickest, with particular praise coming for the EcoBoost-powered models, which bested Chevrolet and Dodge's V8-powered variants. Dearborn's products also posted the fastest average times around MSP's vehicle dynamics course. But it wasn't all positive for Ford. The only four-cylinder in the contest, the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost Ford SSP Sedan, had both the lowest top speed, 120 mph, and the slowest acceleration figures. It was also the slowest in track testing. Ford's products also failed to match the braking and top speeds of its rivals from Detroit and Auburn Hills Â– the rear-drive Charger Pursuit posted the best braking stats of the entire test, while the V8-powered Chevrolet Caprice hit the highest top speed, at 155 mph. Ford did score a top speed award, among SUVs, but at 132 mph, the naturally aspirated Police Interceptor Utility had to share its award with the equally fast, rear-drive Chevrolet Tahoe. The LA County Sheriff's timing isn't publicly available, but according to Ford, the EcoBoost-powered police cars put on a similarly impressive show for cops on the West Coast. We've assembled a spreadsheet on Google Docs that offers an easy to browse comparison of the different stats assembled by the Michigan State Police, and divided the vehicles between standard V6-powered sedans, high-performance sedans (EcoBoost and V8 models), and SUVs.

Why does Chevy want to trademark Camaro Krypton?

Mon, Jun 1 2015

The Chevrolet Camaro and Ford Mustang have the type of long-lived rivalry that is often found in the pages of comic books. Is the Camaro the Kryptonite to the Mustang's Superman, though? We might get to find out soon, if two recent trademark filings are any hints. On May 5, General Motors filed trademarks in the US for both Krypton and Camaro Krypton (not pictured above). While the move seemed potentially timed with the release of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice next year, engineer Al Oppenheiser shot that theory down to The Detroit Free Press. "I think that's just Internet buzz, which is great," he said to the newspaper about the alleged connection. "It's another thing about this segment of cars: there's always Internet buzz." Rather than a special edition connected to next the superhero film, Oppenheiser speculated something else. "Sometimes when we come up with a new color in our studios, they just apply [for a trademark] in case we ever use it," he said to The Detroit Free Press. "We never said we're going to do anything with that color." Still, as Superman's home planet and part of the name for the mineral that can harm him, Krypton undoubtedly has a superhero connection. To maintain the link to the comics, such a color would likely be a shade of green. Although, depending on the depiction in the books, the exact hue can vary between bright neon and a darker tone.

GM recalls 8,500 Chevrolet Malibu models for rear suspension glitch

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

According to a letter from General Motors to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, flaws in the build process of the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu have led to the recall of 8,519 cars. Units built between December 6, 2011 and January 15, 2013 may have been assembled with rear suspension cradles that had insufficient torque applied to certain bolts. That out-of-spec assembly could lead to issues ranging from slight noises to a loss of vehicle control.
The problem was first noticed in December of last year by a GM test fleet driver and eventually tracked back to the improperly torqued bolts on the suspension cradle assembled through July 2012 by a supplier located not too far from the Malibu's Detroit/Hamtramck Assembly Plant. Since an official NHTSA recall notice has not been issued yet, it isn't clear whether or not Detroit-built Malibus were the only ones affected (the 2013 Malibu is also built at GM's Fairfax Assembly Plant in Kansas City, Kansas). Dealers will fix the problem by inspecting vehicles for proper torque specs, retightening if not within specs and, in some cases, perform a rear-wheel alignment.
