This is my 1966 Impala Sport Coupe. It started life as a base model, 283/powerglide/10 bolt car. Now- 427 Big Block, M-20 4-speed, 12 Bolt Posi rear with 3.73's. Now it's fun.  There are some parts taken from various Super Sport cars I've picked apart over the years. Bucket Seats, 4 speed pedals, grill emblem, trunk emblem, and I have Super Sport fenders if the high bidder would like them.  The car was purchased by me about 4 years ago from a guy who had owned it since the 80's. He bought it from the original lady owner/family friend who mostly drove it in the summer.   He did the body work, lower quarters and some fender work. Neither of us ever got to painting it. He kept it stored all those years in a wood stove heated garage, and since I've owned it, it's never been in the rain. Very solid car, rust free floors, trunk, rockers, etc... I have and will include all of the exterior trim for the car, and it's in very nice shape.  I made the Hood for it and it's the one on the car now. It's got the bumps from a 67 SS Chevelle grafted onto a stock hood, gives it some Hot Rod flavor. The stock tan hood is included too.  The interior shows its age and could use freshening up. The seats are marina blue 66 impala SS buckets that have seat covers on them, the rest of the fawn interior appears to be original. Front shocks are new, springs are for a small block- it sits low, looks mean.  New urethane sway bar bushings. It has power steering, no power brakes. 4 wheel drum, however, I will be including a set of spindles from a 73 Corvette. These are a great alternative to China crap when converting to disk brakes. Look it up, it's being done and the calipers, pads, rotors etc... can all be had from Napa. The wheels are 15x7 and 15x8 Corvette Ralley wheels, 255/60/15 fronts, 275/60/15 rears, Goodyear Eagle GT-II tires with low miles.  The pics shown with the SS emblems are how it is now, the pics without are to show the stock hood, really not much difference.

Engine: 1970 402 Big Block Chevy bored to 4.25 with Keith Black pistons 9.75:1  Crank turned 10/10, new bearings throughout. Heads are a set of 1970 820's oval port, open chamber that have had a competition valve job, new parts installed and new comp springs. The valve train is a Comp Thumper set up, Edelbrock performer intake, Holley 750 Street HP carb (new/no choke), Crane Electronic ignition module, MSD 8.8mm wires, Hooker Super Comp. Headers, Pypes 2 1/2" Dual Exhaust.  Also has a Griffin aluminum radiator, 2 speed electric fan, New 75 amp alternator, solid state regulator, and Bosch starter.  Interstate battery too.

Transmission: 1973 Muncie M-20 4 speed. 26 spline input, large (turbo 400) output, Hurst completion plus shifter, Ram Billet flywheel and 11" Clutch. Severe Duty U-joints.  The front seal has a slight leak, and the 2nd gear synchro gets touchy. Sometimes it shifts perfect into 2nd, other times it may grind.

Rear End: 1965 Impala 12 Bolt  2 upper control arms, 2 lower control arms- Must have for horsepower. All new urethane bushings when it was installed, new shocks, new coil springs, breaks gone through.  Detroit Tru-Trac Posi unit with a new Richmond 3.73 Gear set all professionally set up.

This car is a fast, and it cruises well. Check out the pictures and ask questions. If your local, inspections are ok. Serious about selling, you should be just as serious about buying. Sold As is / Where is.  $500.00 Non-Refundable deposit due within 24 hours of auctions end. I'd like to see the car picked up within 10 days of auctions end unless other arrangements are made. Shipping is on you, but I will assist with getting it on a truck and on it's way. This is a solid car with a reasonable reserve. I've got other interests and need the space. Good Luck

How Chevy used popular Instagram user to promote 2016 Volt

Thu, Feb 26 2015

A picture is worth a thousand words. When it comes to Chevrolet and its Volt extended-range plug-in, the automaker is hoping pictures can be turned into a few more buyers. The company extended a little love to one popular social-media practitioner to see if the trick works. Former biochemical engineer Kevin Lu started his Instagram account a couple of years ago during a road trip, and the quality of his shots has attracted about 181,000 followers. With that popularity in mind, Chevy brought Lu up to Detroit to check out the unveiling of the next-generation Volt at the Detroit Auto Show last month. Lu also got to see the Detroit-Hamtramck Assembly factory where the Volt is built, Automotive News reports. As for the next-gen Volt, Chevy says a more efficient powertrain and lighter battery help give the car an all-electric range of up to 50 miles and a total driving distance of more than 400 miles. Chevy also touts the model's streamlined grille and (tight) seating for three in the rear. General Motors hopes a combination of those improvements and exposure from sources such as Lu and his Instagram account (and some sleepy ads, apparently) revitalize sales of the model. Last year, Volt sales fell 19 percent to 18,805 units.
