Up for auction is my 1962 Chevrolet Impala Super Sport with a dual quad 409 and 4-speed manual transmission.  The car has an all original drivetrain and engine, as well as all original sheet metal.  I bought the car 10 years ago and had it shipped from Florida to California.  I am the fourth owner after purchasing the car from a body shop owner who had too many cars on his hands.  I still have a copy of the original ad from when I purchased the car 10 years ago as well as all my receipts and paperwork going back to the original owner.

All drivetrain numbers match, including: Block # 3788068, Pad # A155243 + T0220QB, Heads # 3814690 K-361, Intake # 3814881, Carter Carbs # 3361(F), 3362(R), Exhaust #s 3814682 and 3814683, and Bell housing # 3785644.  You are unlikely to find a more original example, so bid accordingly, as this investment-grade car will only increase in value.

The odometer shows 34,797 miles, which may be original as the car sat for approximately 19 years, but I have no way to verify.  I have the original pink slip for the car.  I have restored or replaced everything on this car inside and out.  The paint was done about 5 years ago and still looks great.  The car is fully functional mechanically and it runs great as it should. 

I've installed an original-look Griffin aluminum radiator so the car runs nice and cool.  It also has a modern radio and speakers, but retains an original look, as seen in the pictures and even has the original reverb in the trunk.  The car also features an upgraded primary carburetor and vacuum advance distributor.  The 3:70 posi rear end was also completely rebuilt with the rest of the drivetrain. 

The winning bidder will also get the original 14" wheels with full spinners, the original radiator, the original radio, speakers, primary carburetor(Carter 3362), and the correct mechanical advance distributor. 

If you have any questions or need more information, please call Joe at 650-228-4680 or just click the ask a question link on the ad.

I will require a non-refundable deposit of $1000 within 3 days of the auction's end.  The car will be released when full payment is received.  Buyer is responsible for pickup and/or transportation of the vehicle, but I will help with loading if needed.  This vehicle is also for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

Thank you and good luck!

Corvette Stingray designer lists five goals of new exterior shape

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

Redesigning an icon is a difficult task, especially when you've got a blank sheet of paper in front of you and the all-new C7 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is intended to be your final objective.
General Motors has released a new short video featuring Kirk Bennion of the Corvette's exterior design team, talking about the challenges of sculpting Chevrolet's new flagship sports car and the five goals the team had to keep in mind as it worked. In the end, Bennion's team had the pleasure of seeing their hard work take center stage as the Corvette captured the world's eyes at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this year.

"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles

Fri, 04 Jan 2013

As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
Scroll down for the full list of GM's million 30+ mpg cars as well as an informative press release.
