1967 Chevrolet Biscayne

  This 67 Biscayne is a  beautiful car that drives like a dream.

Documentation  

It is a 2nd owner car with a lot of paper work. Paper work

including but not limited to the Title, the original 1967 DMV registration,

1967 custom feature booklet, Chassis Broadcast copy, Sun / Air

and wheels booklet, Owner Protection plan and warranty book,

The original sale contract, lots of service invoice including fluids,

tire rotations, EGR, as well as smog device.

    Engine and Drive train 

This 67 Biscayne is 100% Matching Numbers car.

Although it is no muscle car it has no problem going down the road

with its stock 275 horse power  327 cubic inch v8 engine and the always

popular automatic powerglide transmission. What this car lacks in power it makes

up for it in the ride. With its long body and wide stance this thing rides beautifully. 

Odometer

The odometer reads 11,515 miles. I was told that at one time the speedometer

cable had broke and was drove like that for about a year before it got replaced.

However, there is no documentation of that anywhere. I personally don't think that

there is any way this car has over 100,000 miles. Everything is tight with no

slack or play in the steering or the front end. In my opinion there may be 35,000

miles on the car at the most. 

Body and trim

This Biscayne has not been restored and is not being listed as perfect. I have had it painted a little over a year ago. It is currently a glacier white pearl. I did provide a picture to try to capture the green pearl to give you an idea of the color. The only rust that  I know about is located in the left rear quarter panel. If you look at the pictures I tried to show it the best I could. I believe that it was caused from the back windshield leaking, which I got cut out and reinstalled by a local shop owner and in return I let put his shop logo on the glass for advertisement. (Just to explain the sticker) All the body gaps look really good. I also included pictures of the underside to show the quality of the floor pans, trunk pans, and frame. Take notice to how good of shape the inner quarter panels and the whole under side of the car looks. It amazes everyone that looks at it. This would be an awesome start to a restore.  The only parts that I have put on this car is a new chrome strip across the hood, new GM back up light covers, wheels and tires(I still got the factory set with the hub caps also in the pictures),and a am/fm radio and cassette player(and you guessed it I still got the factory radio as well).  

Keys

I have two sets of keys to this car both have one key that fits the ignition and door locks. The other key fits the glove compartment and trunk. It has only one key that fits the gas cap. All locks are in good working condition. 

Payment and Shipping    

Their will be $500.00 deposit that will need to be made with in 48hrs. of agreement. The remainder of the payment will need to be made in cash before the car will leave my possession. I will not ship or deliver. If a deposit is made it will not be refunded for any reason.

History Lesson  

At its introduction in 1958, the Biscayne was available as a 2- or 4-door popst sedan. A Biscayne station wagon was available from 1962 to 1968.  The 2-door sedan was dropped after 1969, and consequently from 1970 to 1972 the only Biscayne model available was the 4 door.

Biscaynes were produced primarily for the fleet market, though they were also available to the general public, mainly  to those who wanted low-cost transportation with the convenience, room and power of a full-size automobile. While most Biscaynes were sold with a six-cylinder engine through the late 1960s, the V8 engine became the more popular engine by the early 1970s.1. Power steering and power brakes were made standard in 1970, while the TurboHydramatic transmission was standard on all cars ordered with a V8 engine starting midway through the 1971 model year.

Like the slightly upscale Bel Air, Biscaynes were easily identified by the use of two taillights per side. The only difference in the was in 1959 and 1972. The more expensive Impala  had three taillights per side. The Biscayne was largely devoid of exterior chrome trim and was normally fitted with small hubcaps, though several exterior trim pieces and upgraded wheel covers were available at extra cost. Interior trim was lower grade cloth and vinyl or all-vinyl upholstery trim, a standard steering wheel with center horn button, and rubber floor mats. Slight upgrades were made throughout the life of the series. For instance the 1964 models came standard with deluxe steering wheel with horn ring, deep-twist carpeting and foam-cushioned front seats.

Many of the luxury options  were made available on the more expensive full size Chevrolet models, like power windows , were not available on the Biscayne. However, customers could purchase a Biscayne with any of Chevrolet's big-block V8 engines and performance transmissions, like the floor-mounted 4-speed manual transmission with Hurst shifter and low ratio final drive. Original production numbers of cars built this way were very low, and examples of these high-performance cars are highly sought after by collectors today. Notably, Baldwin Chevrolet of Long Island, New York, became famous for offering the "Street Racer Special," a 1968 Biscayne coupe with dealer-fitted high-performance 427 cubic-inch V8, and heavy duty suspension components, turning the Biscayne into a serious drag car. Biscaynes with high-performance equipment were often nicknamed "Bisquick" by enthusiasts.

The 1965-1970 GM B platform is the fourth best selling automobile platform in history after the Volkswagen Beetle, Ford Model T and the Lada Riva.

Camaro-based Trans Am SE Bandit Edition borrows Burt Reynolds

Tue, Mar 29 2016

For some reason, modifying modern Chevrolet Camaros into the lurching, reincarnated shells of the Pontiac brand is still a thing. If you're the perverse sort that likes this kind of thing, you should check out the latest product from the Trans Am Depot, which comes complete with an endorsement from the star of Smokey and the Bandit, Burt Reynolds. Yes, the new Trans Am SE Bandit Edition has been signed and endorsed by the man himself, but what's important here is not the signature on the dash, it's the bits of Camaro that have been modified. Aesthetically, that means a Bandit-and-Frog-approved set of T-tops, a front-opening hood with a very large, prominent shaker scoop, an equally large and prominent screaming chicken, and Trans Am-inspired front and rear fascias. And naturally, Burt Reynolds' signature adorns the dash. There are plenty of reminders in the cabin about this car's Hollywood inspiration, too. Bandit decals can be found on the front headrests and center console lid, there are chicken wings on the Camaro-spec plastic door inserts, and the black-and-tan color scheme matches nicely with the exterior look. And power? Well, Sheriff Buford T. Justice would have a lot more trouble keeping up with this Trans Am than he did with the original. The 7.4-liter LSX V8 has been paired with a 2.9-liter supercharger which is good for 840 horsepower. It's fast and loud, and even if you can't get behind the look (we can't), at least this Camaro-in-Trans Am's clothing can impress with its performance. The Bandit Edition is limited to just 77 units with prices starting around $115,000. You can check out the official video from Trans Am Depot, which comes with a decent helping of Burt Reynolds, up top. Related Video:

Texas sues GM, saying it tricked customers into sharing driving data sold to insurers

Wed, Aug 14 2024

Texas filed a lawsuit Tuesday against GM over years of alleged abuse of customers' data and trust. New car owners were presented with a "confusing and highly misleading" process that was implied to be for their safety, but "was no more than a deceptively designed sales flow" that surrendered their data for GM to sell. The suit contends that at no point was selling driving data ever even suggested as a possibility, putting GM in violation of the state's consumer protection laws. Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is seeking a jury trial and at least $10,000 per offense (every GM car sold in the state since 2015) and a hefty add-on of $250,000 in cases where the victim was over 65. Texas seems to be flying high after a recent $1.4 billion settlement from Meta over other privacy concerns. This may well be a way to solve any pending budgetary issues in the Lone Star State.
