1962 Chevrolet Impala 4-door Hardtop Original 327 Car Rust-free Survivor on 2040-cars
Helena, Montana, United States
|
OFFERED FOR SALE IS THIS 1962 CHEVROLET IMPALA 4 DOOR HARD TOP!
THIS CAR IS AN ABSOLUTE GREAT FIND! EVEN THOUGH THE MILEAGE IS PROBABLY IN EXCESS OF 200,000 MILES, IT'S VERY COMPLETE, UN-TAMPERED, AND RUST AND ROT FREE! IT RUNS AND DRIVES. ORIGINALLY PURCHASED IN CALIFORNIA, IT SPENT MOST OF IT'S LIFE IN BARSTOW AND HAD BEEN IN STORAGE IN MONTANA UNTIL JUST RECENTLY. THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES, BUT THE CARB DOES NEED A KIT. I HAD NEW PLUGS, POINTS, CAP, ROTOR, AND FUEL PUMP INSTALLED. I FIGURED THE BUYER COULD TACKLE THE CARB. THE POWER BRAKES ARE VERY, VERY TOUCHY. THE MUFFLERS ON THE DUAL EXHAUST WERE ABSOLUTELY SHOT, SO I HAD TEST PIPES WELDED IN, BECAUSE IT WAS LESS EXPENSIVE THAN NEW MUFFLERS. THE CAR IS LOUD. ALL THE WINDOWS ROLL UP AND DOWN WITH EASE. THE WINDSHIELD HAS A WIPER TRACKS ON IT, BUT OTHER THAN THE PASSENGER'S WING WINDOW, THERE IS NO BROKEN SOFT RAY TINTED GLASS (THE WING WINDOW ONLY HAS A ROCK CHIP CRACK IN IT). THERE IS NO WASHER SYSTEM FOR THE WINDSHIELD. LOOK AT THE PICTURES OF THE FIREWALL AND THE WIPER CONTROL. THE INTERIOR IS DIRTY AND COULD USE A GOOD CLEANING. I DID A QUICK VACUUMING. THE MAJORITY OF THE WEAR IS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE (CARPET AND VENT KICK). THE AM RADIO WORKS AND THE SPEAKER SOUNDS GOOD. THE DRIVER'S ARM REST IS WORE OUT. THE FRONT SEAT HAS BEEN RECOVERED AND THERE IS A SPRING POKING THROUGH ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE BACK (PICTURED). THE CAR DOES HAVE ALL FOUR ORIGINAL HUBCAPS, ORIGINAL SPARE TIRE, AND JACK/LUG WRENCH (IT IS MISSING THE J-BOLT THAT HOLDS THE JACK AND SPARE TIRE DOWN). THE A/C DOES NOT WORK, BUT I HAVE MOST OF THE PARTS (THE BRACKETS FOR MOUNTING THE COMPRESSOR TO THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD ARE MISSING). THE TIRES ARE AT AT LEAST 75% LIFE LEFT. THE GENERATOR HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO AN ALTERNATOR (THE UPPER ALTERNATOR BOLT EAR IS BROKEN, BUT A REPLACEMENT ALTERNATOR IS INEXPENSIVE). I HAD THE OIL CHANGED AND IT HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO A SPIN-ON FILTER. THE TITLE IS CLEAN, CLEAR, AND IN MY NAME. THE ENGINE CODE SUFFIX IS "SA" (PICTURED), WHICH ACCORDING TO THE MANUALS, DENOTES A 1962 327cid ENGINE WITH A POWERGLIDE AND AIR CONDITIONING. HERE IS THE BAD NEWS/GOOD NEWS: THE HEATER CORE LEAKS AND IT RUINED THE CARPET ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE. GOOD NEWS: IT CAN BE FIXED AND THE FLOOR BOARDS ARE SOLID. SOME MORON CUT THE AIR CONDITIONING HOSES, UN-BOLTED THE COMPRESSOR, AND LOST THE MOUNTING BRACKETS, SO IT DOES NOT WORK. GOOD NEWS: I HAVE THE COMPRESSOR AND THE CUT HOSES. THE TRUNK LOCK WAS DRILLED AND THE CYLINDER AND EXTENSION ARE GONE (PICTURED). GOOD NEWS: I'M SURE THEY ARE EASY TO FIND. ONE TAIL LIGHT BULB SOCKET IS BROKEN (PICTURED). GOOD NEWS: GM USED THESE SOCKETS ON MILLIONS OF CARS, SO THEY ARE PLENTIFUL IN THE SALVAGE YARDS. THE CLOCK DOESN'T WORK. GOOD NEWS: WE HAVE WATCHES AND CELLULAR PHONES WITH CLOCKS. THE LIGHTER IS MISSING (SOCKET IS STILL IN THE DASH). GOOD NEWS: SMOKING IS NOT GOOD FOR YOU, SO WITHOUT A LIGHTER YOU WON'T BE TEMPTED TO LIGHT UP. THE POWER STEERING LEAKS. GOOD NEWS: IT ISN'T A LOT AND CAN BE FIXED WITH A NEW HOSE. THE PASSENGER'S WING WINDOW HAS SMALL CRACK IN IT. GOOD NEWS: IT'S STILL INTACT. THE GLOVE BOX LINER IS SHOT. GOOD NEWS: IT'S FOLDED CARD STOCK AND MORE THAN LIKELY CAN BE REPRODUCED. THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR COURTESY DOME LIGHT SWITCH IS ERRATIC. GOOD NEWS: THE PASSENGER'S SIDE WORKS FINE. THE ENGINE RUNS REALLY, REALLY RICH. GOOD NEWS: A CARB REBUILD WOULD FIX THAT. I'M LEAVING THAT TO THE BUYER. THE PARKING BRAKE RELEASE HANDLE IS BROKE AND THE PEDAL PAD IS MISSING (PICTURED). GOOD NEWS: I'M PRETTY CERTAIN A SUITABLE REPLACEMENTS COULD BE FOUND. THE DRIVER'S SUN VISOR MOUNTING BRACKET IS BROKE (PICTURED). GOOD NEWS: IT CAN BE WELDED, GROUND, AND RE-PLATED. THERE IS A SMALL TEAR IN THE HEADLINER NEAR THE PASSENGER'S SIDE COURTESY LIGHT (PICTURED). GOOD NEWS: IT WILL GO AWAY WHEN THE BUYER INSTALLS THEIR OWN CUSTOM INTERIOR. THIS IS THE BEST NEWS ABOUT THE CAR: OTHER THAN A VERY SMALL AMOUNT OF SURFACE RUST, THE BODY, FRAME, AND FLOOR PANS ARE SOLID AND RUST FREE. THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR DOOR HAS SOME VERY MINOR DAMAGE (PICTURED). THERE IS KINK NEAR THE DRIVER'S HEADLIGHTS (PICTURED). THE USUAL PARKING LOT DINGS ARE PRESENT NOTHING DEEP OR SEVERELY CREASED (THE WORST IN THE DRIVER'S REAR QUARTER. PICTURED). THE DOORS, DECK LID, AND HOOD FIT GOOD AND OPERATE WITH EASE AND NO BINDING. ALL THE DOORS CLOSE WITH A RESOUNDING "CA-CHUNK" THE BUMPER LICENSE PLATE PANELS HAVE SOME MINOR "RIPPLING" (PICTURED), THE GRILLE IS REASONABLY STRAIGHT, BUT IT COULD USE SOME MINOR TWEAKING (PICTURED). THE SEATING SURFACES SHOW WEAR, BUT ARE NOT TORN (EXCEPTION: SPRING POKING THROUGH THE BACK. NOTED EARLIER AND PICTURED). THE HEADLINER IS INTACT (ONE SMALL TEAR NOTED EARLIER AND PICTURED). THE CARPET IS A LOSS, AS IT SOAKED UP COOLANT FROM THE LEAKING HEATER CORE AND JUST FLAT DIRTY FROM GROUND IN DIRT. I TRIED TO CLEAN IT, BUT ITS TIME FOR IT TO BE REPLACED, AS THE DRIVER'S SIDE IS THREADBARE. I FIND NO EVIDENCE THAT CAR WAS EVER IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT. I'VE DONE MY BEST TO PICTURE THE CAR, BUT I'M ONLY ALLOWED 24 PICTURES, SO I LINKED THIS LISTING TO A PORTFOLIO ON PHOTOBUCKET.

2023 Chicago Auto Show Mega Photo Gallery: See all the new cars from the show
Thu, Feb 16 2023The 2023 Chicago Auto Show played host to a number of reveals this year, and we were there to capture all of them. In traditional auto show fashion, that means you’re getting a mega gallery of galleries to flip through and see all the vehicles on the show floor. Our EditorsÂ’ Picks from the show are already out — spoiler alert, the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander took home the prize. That said, there were other important reveals like the 2024 Volkswagen Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport and the 2024 Subaru Crosstrek. We also learned some interesting tidbits, such as the fact that VW is considering a pickup, and Jeep owners really are plugging in. To see the photos, scroll on down and start flipping through those galleries.  2024 Toyota Grand Highlander 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander View 7 Photos 2024 Volkswagen Atlas 2024 Volkswagen Atlas View 14 Photos 2024 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport 2024 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport View 7 Photos 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse with its carbon fiber wheels 2024 Ford Mustang Dark Horse with carbon fiber wheels View 7 Photos 2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray 2024 Chevrolet Corvette E-Ray View 10 Photos Jeep Wrangler Anniversary Editions Jeep Wrangler Anniversary Editions View 3 Photos 2023 BMW XM 2023 BMW XM View 6 Photos Ram Revolution Concept Ram Revolution Concept View 6 Photos NASCAR Chicago Street Race Pace Car — Toyota Camry NASCAR Chicago Street Race Pace Car ?

Meet the Greenest and Meanest vehicles of 2016
Wed, Jan 27 2016If you've been keeping track, you won't be surprised with the number one entry in this year's list of greenest cars from the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE). In fact, the top three spots on the 2016 list are all the same as they were in 2015. After that, things get interesting. For one thing, this is the first Greenest list that doesn't have any purely internal combustion engine powertrain on it. Hybrids, yes, but if you want to be one of the top 12 greenest cars this year, you'd better have some sort of electric angle. ACEEE says that the conventional, gas-powered Smart Fortwo and Chevrolet Spark just missed the cut. In a statement, ACEEE lead vehicle analyst Shruti Vaidyanathan said, "The 2016 scores are in, and plug-in electric vehicles are outpacing all other vehicle offerings in terms of environmental friendliness." Like last year, one of the noticeable vehicles missing from the green list is the Tesla Model S. One reason? ACEEE takes curb weight into account (lighter is better), and the Model S is a heavy beast. The ACEEE doesn't just look at the clean side of the ledger. It also puts out a "meanest" list. These are the vehicles that pollute the most, not only from their tailpipes, but also any pollution created during the entire manufacturing process, from mining the raw materials to the energy used to produce the vehicle at the factory. The entire list, from greenest to meanest, is done using a "cradle to grave" analysis. You can see how the ACEEE determines its rankings here, explore the entire greenest cars site here, or click through our galleries to see which vehicles are extra green (above) or extra mean (below) this year. 12: Mercedes-Benz GL550 4MATIC View 12 Photos More Electric Cars than Ever on Greenest Vehicles List Electric Vehicles Nab 9 out of Top 12 Spots in ACEEE's Environmental Vehicle Rankings Washington, DC: Despite a tumultuous year for the automotive industry, manufacturers have continued to offer exciting technology options for a growing vehicle market. Today at greenercars.org, the American Council for an Energy-Efficient Economy (ACEEE) released its 19th annual comprehensive environmental ratings for vehicles. The following vehicles comprise the Greenest List for 2016: Greenest Score 1. Mercedes-Benz Smart ForTwo Electric Drive Convertible / Coupe 63 2. Chevrolet Spark EV 63 3. Fiat 500E 62 4. Toyota Prius Eco 61 5. Volkswagen E-Golf 61 6. Nissan Leaf S / Leaf SV 61 7. Kia Soul Electric 59 8.
Next-gen Chevy Camaro ZL1 teases big changes under its camo
Mon, Aug 3 2015With work complete on the lighter, stiffer 2016 Camaro, it's time for Chevrolet's engineers to really start having fun by developing the next, ZL1 version. Here it is for the first time. Unfortunately, the muscle car is still wearing quite a bit of camouflage, but the concealment isn't enough to hide some of the meaner model's more obvious performance tweaks. Starting from the front, this Camaro now wears a much more aggressive front fascia with bigger air inlets. Managing the airflow around the engine bay is clearly a big deal because another photo reveals a fairly large extractor in the hood, as well. Moving down the profile, the lower side sills and orientation of the camo suggest some blistered fenders in the back to cover wider rubber, and at the very rear a much larger wing further suggests the need to keep things planted to the road. Check out the comparison images in the gallery for a better look at the tweaks. What will power the next ZL1 is still entirely a mystery, although sticking with a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 could be a possibility, especially if you take the big extractor in the hood as a hint. Whereas the current ZL1 makes 580 horsepower and 556 pound-feet of torque, the LT4 in the latest Cadillac CTS-V pumps out 640 hp and 630 lb-ft. Combined with the Camaro's other improvements, we're thinking that this new ZL1 will be quite a hot ticket, and based on these spy shots, we can't wait to find out.
