Used and in Original Condition, not restored, need TLC."

Up for sale is my 1962 Impala SS. I have owned this car 7 years. All I have done is tune it up and drive it on the weekends. New Edelbrock card and air cleaner (have the original Rochester and air cleaner), Petronix points conversion (just for reliability), 327 4 barrel factory with a powerglide. Car is complete and drives great. minor power steering leak but that's normal, Minor rust here and there nothing bad. Like I said this is a survivor car that was repainted in the 70's from my guess. All numbers match as they should. Drivers window needs a lower frame. Car has factory power brakes also. This is a great and easy restoration. I have 2 others and this one is the best of all my cars. I am not in a jam to sell it, just putting it out there to see if someone has to have it. Trunk, quarters, doors, hood, deck lid all rust free. Minor rust in the lower front fenders and on small spot on the drivers floor. BY NO MEANS IS THIS A RUST BUCKET! I have had over 20 Impala's of this era and I know these cars to well. This is the best 62 survivor I have ever had. The original hubcaps are included and the dog dish ones also. If there is a pic with Rally's on it those wheels are on my 63 now and do not come with this car. Right now the Car has the Original 14 inch wheels and BRAND NEW Hankook Whitewalls with the dog dish hubcaps on it.  I am posting a lot of pics over the last couple years but the car has not changed. Always stored indoors and covered since I have owned it. Great car and if it doesn't sell I 'll keep it. Thanks and good luck. Cash only please.  TN Title in my name in hand!

Ok, I have had a ton of email on the SS thing. I'll just say IT IS NOT AN SS so the bickering will stop, my appologies. I will post the VIN and Cowl Tag info shortly and you all can decide.  

On a lighter note I forgot to mention a few new items I have done to the car are:

  • All new Energy Suspension bushings for the rear suspenstion are installed
  • All new Coil springs installed
  • All new shocks installed
  • New master cylinder
  • New radiator
  • Has a 1 wire alternator on it (but the harness has not been spliced or cut)
  • Have 2 spare wiper motors (the one in it is tempermental)
  • New Energy Suspension front sway bar bushings
  • There's morre but I can't remeber everything......

With all that said I have driven the car 60-70 miles a day around the area with no issues. Would I drive it to Florida (600 miles) tomorrow? I would want to go through it a little more so I suggest if you are not with in a safe radius (50-100 miles) you trailer it. Yes it is the original 327 and it has never been reduilt or touched along with the powerglide. Still has the Rams-Head manifolds on it. No, I will not tell you my reserve. Remeber I do not have to sell it, just will part with it for the right price. Let's just say I have seen recently some real junkers on here lately go for alot more than my reserve. Hope everyone is happy now. Good luck and have a blessed day.

The 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan is for drivers who value performance above all else

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

The car you see above is the 2014 Chevrolet SS, and it's important both because it is the first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan from Chevy in 17 years, and because it will be the nameplate the brand uses on NASCAR tracks all across the country starting this year.
Though it wears a name as American as baseball and apple pie, the machine was actually designed and built in Australia, sharing most of its parts with the brand-new VF-model Holden Commodore. That said, the basic chassis bits are shared with other Chevrolet models like the Camaro and Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle.
While Chevrolet is happy to sell a Malibu or Impala to anyone looking for a mainstream family sedan, but the SS is reserved for buyers interested first and foremost in performance. Most sedans sold these days are front-wheel drive, which is great for everyday driving and when the weather goes bad, but the SS is instead a rear-wheel-drive vehicle aimed at enthusiasts who love to drive and who prefer speed and performance above all else.

Supercharged 2015 Chevy Corvette Z06 takes the C7 beyond the ZR1

Mon, 13 Jan 2014



The Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.
After a bright-yellow false start, here is the real thing: the fourth-generation, 2015 Corvette Z06. If Chevrolet makes a ZR1 version of the C7 Corvette, it's going to be absolutely mega, because the Z06 is just about everything we got in the last ZR1, but better.

Camaro spy shots show subtly different grille, front fascia

Sun, 03 Feb 2013

It looks like there some changes in store for the Chevrolet Camaro - the only thing is that we just don't know what Chevy has up its sleeve. Looking at these spy shots, we'd initially be inclined to think that there is just a minor facelift or a new special edition, but upon closer inspection, there are a few oddities about this car that definitely have us intrigued.
The most obvious difference on this prototype is the slightly restyled front fascia with a smaller lower air inlet and the two-bar grille. Then we get to some of the car's mysterious details. For starters, this fascia has the SS vent above the grille, but it looks to be blocked off. Granted this could just be a one-off piece used for testing. What really piqued our interest was at the rear of the car where it has quad exhaust outlets that are used on the ZL1. Could this be the LS7-powered Camaro that we reported on back in December?
At this point, your guess is as good as ours as to what we're looking at here, so let us know in the comments what you think this could be.
