Ringgold, Georgia, United States

Up for sale is a 1968 Chevrolet Impala. It is originally from Montana and is very solid. There has been some money spent on the paint and other upgrades to make it unique. I will be highlighting this Car in three main paragraphs. They are Exterior, Interior and Drivetrain. If I happen to leave anything out please use the contact information I have listed to ask.

Exterior: The body has seen one repaint since factory. The car was resprayed base coat/clear coat in the brightest red the painter could find. There is no rust in the frame,trunk or in the body itself. The bumpers and all other trim are original. While not perfect they shine up very well. All the glass is still clean. I will rate the body at a modest 9 on a 1-10 scale. I think with a little more TLC it could be a 9.5!

Interior: It is mostly all original on the interior. The carpet has recently been replaced. The front seats and rear seat are very nice. The dash is not all cracked up. I will try and display everything on the interior fairly. There has been a AM/FM radio added in place of the original but retains the stock look. The speakers have been upgraded as well. I will rate the interior at a 8.5 on a 1-10 scale.

Drivetrain: The original 396 V8 engine runs strong and always cranks with zero issues. The 3 speed Auto transmission shifts awesome. We recently added all new 2 1/2" exhaust from the manifolds back. We used 2 chamber Flowmasters and an h-pipe in the center,we then dumped the exhaust hot rod style at the rear tires. This car sounds awesome. The 17 inch wheels and Nexen tires are almost brand new. With the upgrades its a awesome cruiser/driver. This car turns heads!

In Closing: This is a very solid example of a 68 Impala. These are getting harder to find. The upgrades that have been done make it even more unique and hard to compare to others. I have set a fair reserve price. This vehicle could not be duplicated for what I would take for it. I have the right to end this auction at any time. As always this Impala is being sold as is/ where is. I have a clean title in hand.Thanks for looking and God Bless!

Call me at 423-413-4478 with any Questions. My name is Josh.

2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible headed for Geneva debut

Mon, 28 Jan 2013

While most of the world is still coming down from all the hype surrounding the debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month, we're already looking to the future. And according to Autoweek, the next chapter in the C7 story will unfold at the Geneva Motor Show in March. That's right, General Motors is reportedly using the Swiss stage as its venue to debut the Corvette Stingray convertible.
If this strikes you as odd, you aren't alone. After all, with a car that's such an American icon, we'd fully expect Chevrolet to unveil it here on our shores in either Chicago or New York. But according to Autoweek, GM is looking to boost export sales of its halo car, and since the C7 was engineered to compete with the world's best and brightest, showing it off in Geneva is somewhat of a smart move. What's more, those with sharp memories will recall that GM used the Geneva expo to debut the sixth-generation C6 Corvette convertible back in March 2004, so there's also a precedent.
Details surrounding the Corvette Stingray convertible are still slim, though we fully expect the 6.2-liter V8 and choice of either six-speed automatic or seven-speed manual transmissions to carry over unchanged. Prototypes spotted on the road showed the car fitted with a cloth convertible roof, as well.

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works

Fri, 22 Mar 2013

When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.

GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales

Mon, 04 Nov 2013

Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.
