  Purchased near Fargo North Dakota from an estate of an elderly gentleman who ironically purchased it from the original owners' estate in 1983. A very clean and garage kept car that runs and drives fantastic. We installed a 4 corner airride suspension to give the car a great lowered stance and a more comfortable ride, this is a procedure that we have perfected in the last 20 years of doing this type of work almost on a daily basis, unlike most systems that are on the road which leak and don't perform properly, ours is trouble free and easy to operate and there is no maintenance needed, if you like, you can just set it and forget it!! The car has an excellent body but before the new paint was applied, had its fair share of stone chips, a few door dings, and a couple of scrapes so at first we thought we would just touch up the couple areas but then deciding the car was far too nice to not to give it a show quality paint job. We straightened all the dings and scrapes, we smoothed all the stone chips and painted the car with base - clear urethane. It came out so nice most people would have left it alone but we again decided as nice as the car is, it deserved a wet sand and polish of the clearcoat. The paint is beautiful and looks a foot deep. When reassembling the car, we purchased new rubber seals for the doors and trunk. We installed new sill plates that hold down the original rubber mat, new chrome outside door handles and seals. We polished up the original dog dish hub caps and installed them on a new set of custom built 18x8" and 20x8.5" Billet wheels available only through our shop. New tires installed at the same time. We color matched the center part of the wheel to give the car a factory but contemporary look. The interior is in very nice shape for its age, the front seat bottom is starting to show some age but being a survivor interior I would leave it as it for now. Everything works on the car, horn, signals, lights, wipers, etc. We installed a new exhaust, it still had the 52 year old factory system on it and we only changed it because we needed more clearance for the rear wheels. The fuel gauge was not functioning when we bought the car so we installed a new fuel sending unit to take care of the faulty gauge but we figured we may as well install a new gas tank since we have it out. A great little car that came well equipped in 1962 if you were a cheap old man, no radio, rubber mat, 6 cylinder with a 3 on the tree. Enjoy it as is or throw in your dual quad 409 or LS3 in it and have even more fun. If you have any questions, feel free to email or call me at PatinaPlantation@Gmail.com 216-789-1647    OK, now here is the part I hate to mention only because eBay has become a breeding ground for jokers and squirrels, This is serious business not a game. this is for adults with integrity, not only me as a seller but you as a buyer. The last several successful listings I've had on eBay were non payers, flat out dreamers that thought bidding on eBay is fun and its no big deal to win an auction and than decide that they should have never done it whether they couldn't afford it or their wife wouldn't let them have it or whatever. There is a reason my feedback is squeaky clean, its because I HAVE INTEGRITY and I do the right thing. If you want to know the reserve, you will have to bid I know 100% that there are people who will not read the description and will call or email me asking how much, I know from experience those people will not buy this car or any car for that matter, they are dreaming for a great car for way under market and will troll ebay and never buy a thing, people who are serious will bid on the car. In my opinion the reserve is very reasonable. Those who bid and retract their bid will get blocked from any further bidding. Sorry for the rant

Is this '47 Chevrolet a rat rod or a sports car?

Sun, May 22 2016

These days there are plenty of vehicles that blur the conventional automotive class structures. For instance, was the Honda Crosstour a wagon or an SUV? And what exactly was the Nissan Murano CrossCabriolet? Regardless, those line-blurring cars (or trucks) are out there, and though this one didn't roll off a production line, it's still quite the automotive head-scratcher. Hailing from Missouri, this epic creation is one part mad science experiment, one part 1947 Chevrolet pickup, and one part '95 Mercury Cougar. Add it all up and you get an awesome truck-sports-car hybrid, complete with an outrageous wing and a V8 to boot. And interestingly enough, it's up for sale . RELATED: Check out this Wild-Styled Lamborghini Rat Rod So how does it all come together? According to the listing, the Chevrolet truck cab (which had previously been chopped) was sanded down to bare metal and given a thorough shellacking of clear coat. It was then melded together with the front end of a 1995 Chevrolet S10 pickup truck, and set low to the ground on Bilstein suspension drop spindles. Stance achieved. But instead of fielding an engine from either of those pickups, it pulls its heart from a 2005 Chevrolet Tahoe SUV—a big 5.3-liter V8 heart, that is. It comes backed-up to a GM Turbo 400 automatic transmission. Towards the rear however is where things get really interesting. A Copper Pearl coated tube frame chassis both attaches the rear independent suspension (a la Mercury Cougar) to the racy spoiler, as well as secures the rat rod's rear-mounted radiator, fan, and fuel tank. I'm not quite sure why, but it just looks glorious. RELATED: Reports Say Mid-Engine Corvette Will Arrive in 2018 Inside the vintage cab, the Chevrolet furthers its racing proclivities (it's said to have won burnout and auto-cross events) with a pair of harnessed racing seats, a drift brake, a detachable steering wheel, and a tachometer with oil and temperature gauges, but oddly no speedometer. The shifter is a crescent wrench. And its shift boot? That's a Crown Royal Purple bag. All in all, this grin-worthy Frankenstein creation tallies up bits and pieces from four different vehicles (five if you include the Camaro wheels), which make it truly a mash-up of epic proportions. Internet, what do you think? Related Video: This article by Zach Doell originally appeared on Boldride.

2015 Chevy Impala Bi-fuel burns CNG, starts at $37,385*

Tue, May 6 2014

Currently, the only natural-gas-powered passenger car offered for sale by an OEM in the US is the Honda Civic Natural Gas. Starting this fall, that long-running CNG car will be joined by a CNG-burning 2015 Chevy Impala for both fleet and retail customers. General Motors announced today that the car will start at $37,385, plus an $825 destination charge. That comes to $38,210 before taxes and options. Those options include two trim lines, the base LS and the upper-level LT. Chevy doesn't break out the details in the press release announcing the price, but you can see the trim details for the standard gas-powered 2014 Impala here. Exact information on the 2015 models is not available just yet, but GM spokesman Chad Lyons told AutoblogGreen that the equipment that you see listed on the site for 2014 is "almost exactly the same" as what will be available for 2015. The 2015 Impala gets around 19 city mpg on CNG, but official EPA numbers are not yet available. That means the LS will come with 18-inch aluminum wheels, electric variable-assist power steering, projector-beam headlamps, and 10 air bags. The LT adds an eight-inch touch screen with MyLink, premium Cloth interior and dual-zone automatic climate controls. The cost for this upgrade is unspecified. For CNG purposes, we can ignore the numerical prefix used for the gas-powered LT trims, since that denominates the engine type, and all the CNG models use a 3.6-liter engine with hardened valves and valve seats that can better handle natural gas. The trunk capacity also drops from 18.8 cubic feet to 10 cu .ft. in order to fit in the CNG tank that holds the equivalent of 7.8 gallons of gas. That amount of CNG should move you 150 city miles, which is around 19 mpg, but official EPA numbers are not yet available. With the addition of the gasoline on board, the overall range is 500 city miles. The car burns CNG when available and switches to gas with "no interruption" either when the tank is empty or when the driver selects the gas tank. Find more details in the press release below. GM says the CNG Impala will will be available nationwide this fall. CNG is a growing fuel in the US, thanks in part to fracking. The Civic Natural Gas, which starts at $26,640, is growing towards a nationwide availability. Next year, for example, the Shell Eco-marathon Americas in Detroit will allow CNG for the first time.

Recharge Wrap-Up: LAPD gets Zero MMX, Chevy's new inverter, Hyundai Tucson's new powertrains

Wed, Jul 16 2014

Some police in Los Angeles will be riding Zero MMX electric motorcycles on duty. The LAPD is adding the fully electric police/military all-terrain bikes to its patrol fleet. According to Officer Steve Carbajal of the department's off-road unit, "It costs less than 50 cents to charge compared to using gallons of gas, maintenance is simple, and the community appreciates how quiet they are." The electric bikes, with their lack of noise and a headlight the rider can turn off, also have the benefit of stealth, giving the officers what Carbajal calls "an added tactical advantage." The MMX also has swappable batteries, is designed for quick ignition and has power reserve capabilities so the rider won't be caught with a dead battery while chasing down a perp. Read more at Ride Apart. Remember when it seemed like we'd never run out of oil, and giving your buddy five bucks for gas was actually a worthwhile gesture? Drivers of classic cars in Detroit were able to fill up their tanks at gas prices corresponding to their model year, thanks to a promotion by Hagerty Insurance for National Collector Car Appreciation Day on July 11. That meant prices from 21 to 90 cents a gallon, as the cars that showed up ranged from the years 1929 to 1989. That's about as affordable as charging your EV. Head over to Autoweek for more details and some photos from the event. The next-generation Chevrolet Volt will likely benefit from a new inverter being developed by General Motors. GM is about two-thirds of the way through the development of the new inverter, which should be ready in January 2016. The inverter, which has a peak output of 55 kilowatts a continuous output of 33 kilowatts, will be adaptable for use in other GM vehicles. Chevrolet is working to reduce the Volt's production costs by $10,000 per vehicle, which should make it more affordable, and the new inverter could help reach that goal should it make its way into the car. Read more at Green Car Reports. Hyundai is likely planning some interesting powertrain changes for the 2016 Tucson, says Green Car Reports. Plug-in hybrid? Maybe. Diesel? Probably not. "We are covering the waterfront on all alternative fuel strategies, from standard hybrid, to plug-in, battery-electric, and fuel cell," says Hyundai's US Chief Dave Zuchowski.
