Arvada, Colorado, United States

 Rare 1971 Chevy Impala Convertible with BB 402, Turbo 400 transmission with shift kit up for auction!!! Runs and drives fine.  This car sounds and runs amazing (I have a video of the engine running if you would like to see it - email me and I will send it to you via email.  Ebay will not let me post a video)  Although it runs and drives fine, it has not been a daily driver for the last 2 years.  This is still a project and needs to be restored, but what an awesome starting point!

Again - has the Big Block 402
Turbo 400 Transmission with shift kit
It has 86K miles. 
Has dual exhaust
Does have rust in the trunk pan (see pics)
Has some rust in one rocker panel and one fender well (see pics)
Floors are solid
Body is straight
Needs carpet & new top
Has working power windows
Has tilt steering
Originally had AC, but has been removed, but ALL parts are in the trunk, including the belt
The original valve covers are in the trunk as well.
One center cap is missing

I've tried to take as many pictures as possible showing the condition.  I have been completely honest about everything I can think of.  I am not a professional though, so I am just hoping I have listed everything.  If there is anything specific you would like to know, PLEASE EMAIL AND ASK.  The car is being sold as is, with no warranty or guarantee.  There is a $500 NON REFUNDABLE Deposit due within 48 hours of auction close.  Balance is due upon pick up in cash.  Pick up is required within 7 days, unless prior arrangements are made.  Regardless of arrangements, balance is due within 7 days. Buyer is responsible for pick up/shipping.  This is an awesome project.  My husband was just cruising it around town today and is sad we are letting it go....but we moved and do not have room for all his projects any longer.

Chevy Corvette Stingray "colorizer" lets you chase the rainbow

Thu, 14 Feb 2013

After you've convinced your better half to let you buy a new Corvette, then comes the hard part... actually figuring out which 'Vette you want. While Chevrolet has yet to release the official configurator for the 2014 Corvette Stingray, it did give us something else to kill some time playing around with.
The C7 Corvette "colorizer" recently went online, and it lets you look at the car in all of its available colors and wheel options from four different angles so that when this car does go on sale, you know exactly which one you want. It includes the Corvette's full pallet of colors including Torch Red, Laguna Blue and the hue you see above, Velocity Yellow. Toss in the black wheels, and we're sold. If you have some time this afternoon, be sure to check it out the Corvette colorizer for yourself, and even if you don't have the time, we've put together a gallery with all of the possible color combinations.

2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Convertible is the track car for sun worshippers

Fri, 11 Apr 2014



Supercharged, 6.2-liter V8? Check. Seven-speed manual? Check. Obsession with weight? Check.
What did you expect when Chevrolet said it was bringing a new Corvette variant to the 2014 New York Auto Show? Maybe a sticker and trim package, like the C6 Corvette Grand Sport or a tie-in deal like the Black Widow car from Chicago? On the opposite end, maybe there was an even more hardcore Z06 waiting in the wings. Who knew?

Watch this creative way to pull a truck's engine

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.
