Condition: Used: A vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections. ...

Parents have had this vehicle for over ten years, and what was once a project car is now too much to do for them now. Unfortunately, I live too far to help with the restoration and for them it's time to let it go.

Odometer says 10469. But do not know if that is 110469 or 210469. I'll have to review the clear title again to confirm.

Have a 1964 Impala Hardtop Coupe, 2-door. It has a crate motor 327, so it is not the original I have been told. Had the car looked over briefly and was told that the dipstick on original Chevy engines in that era were on the driver's side, so I can only assume it is a crate motor. We were unable to find block ID numbers on it, but did find the firing order cast in the intake. I don't know much about all the identifying features of cars from that era (or any era), so doing my best to supply as much info and pics as I can.

Transmission is a 2-speed automatic (I say 2 because only D-L on steering column indicator). Is it a Powerglide, don't know. Didn't get under the car to check it out, and again, living so far away, not able to do much with checking that out. My understanding is that they were pretty populat during that time, so it's a toss up whether it has one or not. Unfortunately, can't really check on that right now and the folks sure wouldn't be able to determine that.

Interior appears to have been re-upolstered when the car was purchased. Both the front and back seats were covered in a vinyl covering. I removed the front seat covers, and left the back on, so that you could see the product. If you want to put that back on, it's in the ample trunk. Seats look good, and underneath appears to be the original springs. Don't have a lot of history on the car, but think Dad bought it for the nostalgic value, he had a '64 convertible in a similar color in his heyday. And looks like the replacement carpet was just laid on top of the original, as there is another layer of carpet underneath.

Ignition and locks were replaced with a newer set, as well as the lock to the trunk and glovebox (which does not latch). It will need some electrical work as I could not get all the interior lights to come on when opening the doors (or to stay on). No A/C, and the heater core was bypassed. I plugged it back in and ran the car and got some leaking, so bypassing it again. I did not check under the carpet to see if there was any rust damage.

Exterior color is not original. Supposed to be Ermine White, but the repainted color caught Dad's eyes. It will need another coat, some holidays visible, but the car appears pretty straight given its age. I unfortunately did not get any pics from under the car, but I did see some bubbling on the driver's side front and rear panels, pics below, indicating some small rust areas. Again, the body is pretty straight overall. The molding was removed prior to buying the vehicle and given to us loosely. It's in bad shape and missing the clips/retaining nuts. The old trim will be included with the auction purchase. There is also some trim work missing around the headlights, both the light itself and on the front quarter panels around the front grill. The passenger side mirror and gasket (?) are also missing.

Appears the vehicle was in an accident and the front passenger panel was replaced, hence the missing front trim work and tweaked bumper. I also noticed that the passenger fender well was damaged some, but still installed.

Mechanically, it's almost 50 years old. But it runs. Front brake hardware was replaced this year with over-the-counter parts from local auto parts store. Some parts ordered online, as they are harder to come by. Car runs a little rough, but running on tank gas (fuel gauge off, reads full with 2 gallons). Drive it around the shop to keep the juices flowing, and it will need some work. Non-original carburetor part of crate motor's lifeline. But it does run, shift, brake. Car does not have current tags or inspection sticker. Windshield motor works, but not pumping water/fluid. The wipers move in full range, but cannot get motor to prime. Wheels are original type with decorative ring. Tires are so-so, but not sure on how old they are, but guess they are the same ones purchased over ten years ago.

All the glass is in good shape. There is some old tint on the rear windows that will have to be removed for full restoration. Of course, I did not get enough pictures to show every detail of the car. Sure someone will want some additional photos, but unfortunately, won't be able to get them until later this summer when I go back to visit. If there are several interested in purchasing, can make arrangements to have a day to show the car in the Arlington, Texas area. It will take a little scheduling on my part as I do not work a regular job, so time off is sometimes difficult.

The kicker: pay the Buy-It-Now price and we'll order all the side molding trim work for this vehicle (some 14 pieces) of reproduction quality and the retaining hardware. We'll also order a pair of front fender emblems (V-flagged for 327), the "Impala" letters (2 sets for rear panels), and a pair of Impala logos for the rear panels, all for the 1964 Impalas. The Buy-It-Now price will also include a reproduction heater core. I really don't want to get under that and replace it. I promise that these parts will be from reputable companies and new reproduction replacement parts.

But feel free to ask any questions, I'll do my best to answer. Of course, there is no warranty or guarantees with this vehicle and new owners will be responsible for taxes, registration, and any fees outside of eBay. Thanks for looking.

Consumer Reports no longer recommends Honda Civic

Mon, Oct 24 2016

Consumer Reports annual Car Reliability Survey is out, and yes, there are some big surprises. First and foremost? The venerable publication no longer recommends the Honda Civic. In fact, aside from the walking-dead CR-Z and limited-release Clarity fuel-cell car, the Civic is the only Honda to miss out on CR's prestigious nod. At the opposite end there's a surprise as well – Toyota and Lexus remain the most reliable brands on the market, but Buick cracked the top three. That's up from seventh last year, and the first time for an American brand to stand on the Consumer Reports podium. Mazda's entire lineup earned Recommended checks as well. Consumer Reports dinged the Civic for its "infuriating" touch-screen radio, lack of driver lumbar adjustability, the limited selection of cars on dealer lots fitted with Honda's popular Sensing system, and the company's decision to offer LaneWatch instead of a full-tilt blind-spot monitoring system. Its score? A lowly 58. The Civic isn't the only surprise drop from CR's Recommended ranks. The Audi A3, Ford F-150, Subaru WRX/STI, and Volkswagen Jetta, GTI, and Passat all lost the Consumer Reports' checkmark. On the flipside, a number of popular vehicles graduated to the Recommended ranks, including the BMW X5, Chevrolet Camaro, Corvette, and Cruze, Hyundai Santa Fe, Porsche Macan, and Tesla Model S. Perhaps the biggest surprise is the hilariously recall-prone Ford Escape getting a Recommended check Â– considering the popularity of Ford's small crossover, this is likely a coup for the brand, as it puts the Escape on a level playing field with the Recommended Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Nissan Rogue. While Ford is probably happy to see CR promote the Escape, the list wasn't as kind for every brand. For example, of the entire Fiat Chrysler Automobiles catalog, the ancient Chrysler 300 was the only car to score a check Â– there wasn't a single Dodge, Fiat, Jeep, Maserati, or Ram on the list. That hurts. FCA isn't alone at the low end, either. GMC, Jaguar Land Rover, Mini, and Mitsubishi don't have a vehicle on CR's list between them, while brands like Mercedes-Benz, Volvo, Nissan, Lincoln, Infiniti, and Cadillac only have a few models each.

400,000 Chevy, GMC pickups recalled: Side airbags can explode

Fri, Jul 9 2021

DETROIT — General Motors is recalling more than 400,000 pickup trucks in the U.S. because the side airbags can explode without warning and spew parts into the cabin. The recall covers certain 2015 and 2016 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500, 2500, and 3500 trucks. Documents posted Friday by U.S. safety regulators say the airbag inflator can rupture or the end cap can fly off on both sides of the trucks. Documents say three inflators ruptured in 2015 Silverados last month, one in Florida and two in Texas. All three trucks were unoccupied at the time, and GM says it has no reports of injuries. Dealers will replace both side airbag modules. The company says it has a limited number of replacement parts available. Owners will be notified starting Aug. 16 and they'll get a second letter when parts are widely available. About 9,000 of the trucks were recalled last year for the same problem. The company says a manufacturing defect allowed moisture into the inflator while it was being manufactured, causing corrosion. The inflators were made in Mexico by Joyson Safety Systems, the company that took over Takata. Back in April, Silverado and Sierra were among nearly 750,000 GM vehicles in a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) investigation into non-deploying driver-side airbags. That investigation is ongoing. Takata is responsible for the largest recalls in automotive history, covering about 100 million inflators among 19 major automakers worldwide, including about 67 million inflators in the United States. Nineteen deaths in the U.S. have been attributed to Takata inflators. Only about 50 million of the 67 million recalled inflators in the U.S. have been repaired. This latest recall is a good reminder to go to NHTSA's recalls website and enter your car's VIN. Millions of recalled vehicles still pose a danger to their owners. Yours could be one of them.
