CONTACT JEFF AT 570 977 0741. Up for sale and your consideration is a very rare equipped car. The ultimate factory sleeper ! What we have here for sale is a 1965 Chevy Impala 2-door hardtop bench seat car with a 340 horsepower 409 & 4-Speed & 4.11 rear. Extremely rare in this combination as early 1965 was the end of production for the legendary 409 engines. They were only offered until February of 1965 and then the 396 big blocks replaced them. So to find a 409 & 4-speed car today in this package is an extremely rare offering. Please take the time to look over all the photos here. I have a total of 50 photos of the car that I will be happy to send to any prospective buyer upon request. Just give me a call and I can send them out. I don't have a window sticker or a build sheet for the car, but I feel this is a true 409 4-Speed car based on physical inspection. It has dual steel lines coming from the gas tank to the engine that have obviously been there since 1965. The fuel line is 3/8". The original back up light switch was old and inoperative and was replaced with a new one. The bell housing, transmission, shifter and driveline all appear original. The original hold down ring for the shifter boot was found under the seat and used to hold down the new replacement shifter boot which is unique to a bench seat car. The numbers are as follows: The VIN # is 164375C111222 designating a 1965 Impala built in Southgate California. The last six numbers (production #s) are just plain interesting...111222 . The data plate shows a C code for Ermine White and a trim code of 811 for black vinyl interior. There is a # 70 after ACC on the data plate that I couldn't find a breakdown for. Engine code on engine flat boss is JB designating 1965 409-340HP manual trans engine. The original carburetor #7025123 was working poorly, so it was removed and replaced with a late model Edelbrock so the car would be driveable without problems with the fuel. The original carburetor of course goes with the car and the original tag is still on the carburetor. The 4-Speed trans is # 3851325 which designates a 1964-1965 Muncie M20 unit with a 2.56 1st gear. Transmission also appears to have been in the car since 1965. The engine runs great and appears to have been rebuilt somewhere along the line with new freeze out plugs installed. Since I don't have any receipts for a rebuild I can only assume by the way it runs and it's appearance that is a rebuilt engine. It is freshly serviced as well with an engine oil and filter change, new spark plugs, new air filter, and new fuel filter. The rear differential is a 12-Bolt non-posi unit with 4.11 gears. I do have a posi rear with 3.23 gears that goes with the car at the buyers request. I also have the original floor mats to include with the car and there is a trunk mat included. The interior has been renewed with new upholstery, door panels, carpet, headliner, etc. The factory in dash tachometer works. A rare optional clock sits on top of the dash. The car is also equipped with a rare tilt wheel. The lights and wipers all work. The AM radio and heater blower motor do not work. Underside photos of the car are provided so nothing is left to the imagination. Although this is a California car, it was stored outside for some time while in California, and unfortunately had worn out window and trunk seals, causing some rust on the left side floor and trunk. The rear floor was patched from the inside. The trunk floor was professionally replaced along with the gas tank being replaced with a new unit. Please refer to the underside photo and in trunk photo. Looking beyond the left side floor rust one can see that the rest of the underside is all-solid 1965 metal including body mounts and floor supports which are notorious for rust. Window and trunk seals have been renewed. Front suspension and shock absorbers have been renewed. Dual exhaust has also been replaced with Flowmaster mufflers and pipes which have a fantastic sound ! All the glass is fine. The body is rust free and has a presentable appearance with a few small touch ups. This is not a show car but certainly does qualify as an extremely rare one ! Since this car was purchased pretty much as you see it with only minor upgrades, my description is based soley on a thorough physical inspection. If any prospective buyer has any questions on the integrity of this car, I welcome the opportunity to show this car in person by appointment only to answer any questions. Although this is not a show car, it would certainly be a hit at the local cruise or car show. It's what I call "show me another one" car. I have a clean Pennsylvania title in hand ready for transfer to the new owner. The car has Antique status on the title and shows California as the prior title state. Mileage is listed as exempt on the title as many older cars are that do not have a sixth digit on the speedometer. The title will be processed properly by a licensed Pennsylvania Notary official into the new owners name. A complete bill of sale will also be provided to the new owner in their name. There will be no exceptions to this. Again looking to complete an honest sale here.
On Jun-07-13 at 10:25:45 PDT, seller added the following information:
After receiving multiple requests I forgot to include the engine casting number. It is 3857656 which in the book states 1965 Passenger car 409. The flat boss on the front of the motor is stamped T1211JB That corresponds to the Tonowanda NY assembly plant for engines and it was built on December 11th. I also have registration and insurance cards for the car from California and a shipping manifest for the car when it was shipped from California to Pennsylvania on July 16, 2002 so it has spent only 10 years and 11 months in Pennsylvania. Most of its life was spent in California.

Weekly Recap: Revisting the BBC report that ended Jeremy Clarkson's Top Gear run
Sat, Mar 28 2015Jeremy Clarkson's long run as a Top Gear host has come to an end, and the reason is clear: His physical assault on one of the show's producers crossed a line, and the government-owned BBC couldn't tolerate it. The incident between Clarkson and Top Gear producer Oisin Tymon was initially described as a "fracas," and Clarkson was suspended. But his popularity and widespread support – even British Prime Minister David Cameron weighed in – suggested that the controversial Clarkson might be given yet another chance. The BBC put this to rest Wednesday when it sacked Clarkson and revealed the findings of its investigation. The report spelled out how Clarkson struck Tymon on the patio of a North Yorkshire (UK) hotel, leaving him with a bloodied, swollen lip. It was severe enough that the producer sought medical treatment. During and after the attack, Clarkson shouted expletives at Tymon and threatened to fire him. The noise carried into the hotel's dining room and even to a bedroom. Local police investigated the incident, but Tymon isn't pressing charges. The huge audience numbers, Clarkson's popularity and the high-octane excitement of Top Gear all melted away in the eyes of BBC director-general Tony Hall, who saw an attacker and a victim. "For me a line has been crossed," he said in a statement. "There cannot be one rule for one and one rule for another dictated by either rank, or public relations and commercial considerations." In that moment, Clarkson was the bad guy, though he was actually the one who reported it to the network and made repeated attempts to apologize to Tymon. He's also urged the media to leave the producer alone. Hall voiced regret in the statement that announced Clarkson's contract would not be renewed, but the BBC decided to move on. Rumors are swirling about possible replacements for Clarkson. The network says it wants to continue Top Gear in 2016 and is looking to air the rest of this season's episodes. Despite the controversy, the show has a global audience of 350 million viewers and is one of the BBC's most valuable properties. It's unclear what Clarkson's co-hosts, James May and Richard Hammond, will do, as their contracts were also reportedly up to be renewed.

GM finds steering flaw, decides it doesn't warrant a recall
Tue, Apr 14 2015Guess what? General Motors is back in the spotlight for not recalling something. This time, though, not only does the company have an argument against a recall campaign, but its position is supported by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. According to The New York Times, over 50 owners of GM vehicles have reported instances of stuck or seized steering after driving long distances without moving the wheel. One owner complained to NHTSA that the "locked" steering of their 2013 Buick Verano caused a collision with a concrete barrier in a construction zone. Along with the 2013 to 2014 model year Verano sedans, Chevrolet Cruze and Malibu sedans are also affected. Considering the popularity of those models, GM needs to have a reason for not issuing a recall, right? "Based on a very low rate of occurrence – ranging from less than one half to less than two incidents per thousand vehicles – and the fact that the condition is remedied when the wheel is turned, GM determined this was not a safety issue," spokesman Alan Adler told The Times. The company has, however, issued a technical service bulletin for owners that complain of the problem. The fix is nothing more than a software update that is covered for 10 years or 150,000 miles from new. NHTSA cited GM's actions, along with descriptions of the problems from customers, in its decision not to issue a recall, with spokeswoman Catherine Howden saying, "the symptoms described would be a brief, perceptible change in steering feel that has little to no effect on the driver's ability to safely steer the vehicle." "When terms like 'notchy,' 'stick,' 'slip' or 'feel' are used, it does not indicate a meaningful increase in steering effort," Howden told The Times via email. What do you think? Is GM in the wrong here? Should there be a recall, or is the issue so limited as to not warrant one? Have your say in Comments.
