Here we have an absolute rust free 60s survivor. I purchased it from a gentleman that bought it for his wife in 1964. Her favorite color was red and it was repainted 50 years ago and added 60's style interior. Was parked in 1984 and recently pulled out of its barn. ENGINE COMPARTMENT Its a 348 V8 with a powerglide automatic transmission. Runs excellent, shifts smoothly and drives great. Has original generator with power steering, also power brakes. New brakes all around including rebuilt master cylinder. Engine bay is untouched, looks like all original components are in place and in good working order. All lights work and it can be driven daily. New gas tank and sending unit to keep all the 30 year old dirt away from the rebuilt carburator. (still have the original gas tank to be cleaned and reinstalled if so desired) INTERIOR As previously stated, this is an original 60's style interior. Its in great shape showing some light fading due to age. Seat foam is firm like new, no rips or tears. Headliner and sunvisors are in great shape. The carpet has faded in some areas and theres a small hole near the front passenger sill molding due to age deterioration. The interior stainless, chrome and aluminum show no pitting or surface rust and is all in good shape. All gauges work except for clock. Fan and Heater work great and controls are very smooth. Dash paint is bright shows no damage. GLASS Windows go up and down with ease. There is a small crack on the left lower side of the windshield; according to the original owner, it was there for as long as he owned the car. Window frames are in very nice shape, with almost no pitting showing if any at all. EXTERIOR AND TRIM The chrome is in excellent condition for its age, bright and straight. Stainless trim is straight and shiny with some small dings on the side spears and side trim. Aluminum is also nice and straight with a few dings here and there. Doors, trunk and hood open and shut smoothly, better than a new car -must watch video- Floors are SOLID, no soft spots or questionable spots anywhere that I can see. The trunk had the infamous 59 rubber mat which is know to hold moisture, so there is some oxidation but nothing rusted or rotted through. I got rid of the mat and left the upper section in place as its glued down and didnt want to rip it out. All original metal, no body work ever done on this incredible rust free body. It is an original BLACK car with red interior. It was repainted red 50 years ago, all jams were done too. Still shows nice and its presentable, but keep in mind its half a century old. There are some "everyday" paint scratches and the trunk shows some of the paint that has come off. There are no notable dings, dents or body damage. So here is your chance to own a true one of a kind 59 Impala, you will be hard pressed to find another example of a clean solid ready to go survivor. You could to leave it alone and enjoy it as is; as a 60s original survivor. Or perfect to do a makeover with a great solid canvas which you know what it is from day one. There are lots of pics and Videos, please feel free to ask any questions and offers will be considered, but because the uniqueness of this car its very tough to put a dollar figure on it. Once its payed for, I can assist with shipping and can also store vehicle indoor for a reasonable amount of time.

GM recalls select Chevy Cruze, Sonic and Buick Verano models over airbag issue
Wed, 14 Nov 2012General Motors is recalling certain 2012 Buick Verano, Chevrolet Cruze and Sonic models due to a defect in the driver's airbag system. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, the airbag has a shorting bar which may contact two internal terminals. If that happens during a crash, the supplemental restraint may not deploy, increasing the risk of driver injury. The recall includes a total of 2,949 units.
GM will contact owners and replace the steering wheel airbag coil at no cost. At this point, it's unclear when the recall will begin, though owners may contact the automaker at 1-800-521-7300 for more information. You may also take a closer look at the full NHTSA notice below.
Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future
Wed, 19 Nov 2014The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.
GM says hybrid Corvette no laughing matter [w/poll]
Fri, 30 Aug 2013When Mark Reuss was in LA recently, he sat down to have a few words with the scribes at the Los Angeles Times. When the issue of a hybrid Corvette came up, Reuss answered with "Don't laugh." The General Motors president is a complete fan of the possibility, calling it "attractive" and "really fun," believing it would improve GM expertise and that "people would love it."
Naturally, the president being supportive of an idea doesn't give indication that a hybrid Corvette is on the way. However, with supercars like the Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari giving hybrid tech a solid, if remote, place in the performance car world, the inexorable trickle-down of technology means we shouldn't be surprised if and when it does happen.
And now that we have that non-negative half-answer to a speculative question, it would be irresponsible for us not to commence rumormilling for the C8 Corvette. Taking Reuss at his word, the C8 will obviously be a hybrid with all-wheel-drive - the left side wheels driven with electric motors, the right side with the mid-mounted, four-cylinder diesel engine. With coefficient of drag of just .16, figure on a 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of under 2 seconds and an all-electric range of something like 30 miles at top speed. Don't forget, folks, you read it here first.
