1959 Chevrolet Impala
Convertible

** NO RESERVE ** 

Description: This car came from the factory as a red on red V8, automatic. This car is in very rough condition, it has rust and dents and is not a project for the faint of heart. To make it simple and avoid the risk of disappointing the new owner, lets just say it needs everything. If when you get it its better than described then that's a bonus. 

Reason for selling: I bought this car as part of a package that included 5-59 Impala Convertibles, a 59 Impala 2 door hardtop, and a 59 Biscayne Sedan. I was only after one highly optioned Convertible, but to get it I have to buy them all. Unless I live to be over 300 I won't have time to do them all so I'm keeping 1 and the rest will go on ebay over the winter.

Mechanical: There is no motor or transmission, the rear end is there and the car rolls, the frame is in good condition for the year, and it steers.

Body: The body is rough, the floors are rusty as are the body panels, the folding top is complete, the windshield trim inside and out is complete and the pinch weld molding that the convertible boot snaps to is there. This car has 1 piece bumpers front and rear.

Interior: The interior is rough (whats left of it)

Notice: The wheels, tires and hubcaps are not included, it will come with roller wheels, There are many parts that go with the car (too many to list) that are not shown in the pictures, but again for simplicity bid only on what you see in the pictures, what ever else comes with the car is a bonus.

Overall: 1959 Impala Convertibles are worth a fortune and as such I think this car is worth putting back together again. I've seen what people are asking for convertible specific 1959 parts and realistically I would do very well parting it out, but I don't have the heart to chop the car up.If you are not familiar with what these cars bring do your homework and check it out $50,00.00 seems about average with a well restored cars at around $110,000.00. Its hard to restore a car and make money but with a 59 convertible its possible.
If your looking for a project car that won't cost more than your house to complete but will be an actual investment than this may be the car for you. I'm offering it unreserved because I'm serious about selling it, I have too many and so some have to go. 

Location: The car is located just outside of Salmon Arm, British Columbia, about 3 hours from the US border. If you are a buyer from outside of Canada I will help with importation as I am familiar with US and overseas procedure for importation. I can in many cases help arrange a shipper, but this is time consuming so I will only try to get a quote for the winning bidder. 

Payment: Cash in person or bank to bank wire transfer is acceptable. Payment must be received within 7 days of the close of the auction NO EXCEPTIONS. I can store the car at no charge for several months if needed. 

 Scammers: I've heard it all don't waste my time or yours.

If you have less than 10 feedback please contact me after you bid so I can confirm that you are in fact a serious buyer

Thanks for looking!!!

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing

Tue, 21 Sep 2010

Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.

GM won't sell 2014 Chevrolet SS in Canada

Thu, 21 Feb 2013

Allow us to be the first to extend our condolences to our friends to the north. General Motors has announced the 2014 Chevrolet SS will not be available in Canada. The Globe and Mail reports the automaker has confirmed the high-performance sedan won't hit Canadian dealers, though GM hasn't offered up any reasoning as to why that is.
Buyers here in the US of A, meanwhile, can look forward to getting their hands on the 415-horspower, rear-wheel drive SS by late summer. Something tells us it won't be long after that before Canadian officials start seeing individually imported 6.2-liter V8 four-doors in their neighborhoods. Fortunately, Canadian buyers will still be able to take home the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette. The C7 bowed at the Canadian International Auto Show last week, reportedly drawing sizable crowds and interest.

Check out the official 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition commercial

Sat, 16 Mar 2013


The Poncho is dead. Long live the Poncho. Like certain other reoccurring personal maladies, the aftermarket community simply can't let the Trans Am go without another flare up. The guys at Trans Am Depot have worked up a quick commercial for their newest creation: The 2013 Trans Am Hurst Edition, and it watches pretty much like you'd expect it to. The footage is comprised of just about every TA male fantasy you can conceive of, from Daisy Dukes and white tank tops to tramp stamps, bikinis and ice cream cones. There simply aren't words for what you'll see below.
Of course, we like our T-Tops as much as the next guy. If you like what you see in the videos, you can pick up your very own TA by heading over to the Trans Am Depot site. The guys even have Chevrolet Camaro-based versions of the Pontiac GTO if the '77 TA treatment is too much for your tastes. Enjoy, but don't say we didn't warn you.
