"1966 IMPALA 2 DOOR COUPE AT NO RESERVE READY FOR SOME TLC" I have been given the opportunity to sell this little gem by the current owner who received the car in a trade just recently. The condition of the car is based on a test drive and visual inspection of the vehicle by me and the little bit of info I could get from the current owner. The car comes with a bill of sale only, Alabama does not issue titles on vehicles older than 1976. The car is has a period correct 327ci V8 that starts quick and runs very well with no noises, ticks or rattles. The oil and filter have been changed within last 2 weeks and no oil, water or trans leaks were detected. Neither I or the current owner know if it is the original drive train in the car and we don't know what the mileage is. The odometer reads 22486. The turbo 350 3sp automatic shifts smooth and has no slippage or hesitation, the fluid is clean and pink. The Impala drives just like a 1966 vehicle should and goes down the road fairly strait and true. I did not inspect the underside of the car on a lift but the suspension worked well and I didn't hear or feel any noises or squeaks. The brakes are a little touchy due to having drums on all four corners that could use some adjusting but the car stopped correctly and strait. The body is where we have some work to do. For the most part it is strait and sports a maroon metal flake paint job that looks as if it was done on the cheap. The body work, if you can call it that was done very quickly with the use of lots of bondo in the area between the back glass and the trunk. I have provided pictures of the area affected. The rest of the car looks to be solid and has no areas of rust that I could see and the frame is solid as well. The bumpers are in very good condition. The interior is pretty spartan and in need of the carpet, headliner, sail panels, window cranks and arm rests. The door panels are home made and the seats looks to be possibly original but the front one needs recovering. The floor pans as you can see in the pictures are starting to rust thru with some dime or smaller size holes. The trunk is not as bad and the rust is isolated to the corners. Most of the interior trim is in the trunk but I haven't done an inventory to see what might be missing. The gauges and dash are complete but the speedo does not work and I don't know if any of the idiot lights work either. There is a temp gauge under the dash that works and it didn't go above 190 on the test drive. The current owner has installed a new gas tank within the last 2 weeks and the fuel gauge does work. The headlights, turn signals and running lights all work as they should. Overall this Impala is in average to above average condition given its age and the fact that it is still a running and driving vehicle. It doesn't appear to have any leaks or major issues and can be driven as is. The car is in need of a new home and owner that will give it some love and attention. The 2dr coupes are getting harder to find and I just know there is someone out there that has a desire to be able to drive this little project and work on it at the same time. Think about the potential of this Impala, rat rod or hot rod a little imagination is all it takes. The Impala is being sold with no warranties written or implied and all sales are as is where is but, If for any reason you as the buyer feel that I have deceived you in any way in this description. Upon delivery by myself or you picking the vehicle up. I will refund your deposit minus any fuel cost and we will go our ways with no questions asked. I can deliver the Impala anywhere in the lower 48 states for $1.25 per loaded mile on an open trailer and $1.50 per loaded mile in enclosed. Please fell free to ask questions or request more pictures. I am also interested in trades and open to cash offers. Bid to win and good luck. |

GM recalls 64k 2011-2013 Volts over carbon monoxide fears, stop sale on Trax and Encore
Thu, Mar 12 2015General Motors is recalling 50,249 Chevrolet Volts from the 2011-2013 model years in the US and an additional 13,937 exported examples because of fears over carbon monoxide buildup. According to a statement, if a Volt is accidentally left on while running on electric power, its internal combustion engine would eventually kick on to charge on the battery. If this happens in an enclosed space, then carbon monoxide can fill the area, leading to a potential exposure to the dangerous gas. According to GM, there have been two injuries reported due to this issue. To fix the problem, there's a software update to limit the time the vehicle can idle. According to Automotive News, GM is also issuing a stop sale on about 2,300 examples of the 2015 Chevrolet Trax and Buick Encore. In these compact crossovers, it's possible that the steering column assembly could touch the power steering circuit board and cause damage over time. This could potentially cause the system to stop working. Automotive News indicates that the automaker is still working with the supplier to get the necessary parts to repair this problem. General Motors is recalling 50,249 Chevrolet Volts in the U.S. from the 2011-2013 model years to implement a software update that will limit the amount of time a vehicle can be left idling in the "on" or "run" position. If a driver exits the vehicle and inadvertently leaves the vehicle "on" by failing to react to cues and warning chimes emitted by the vehicle, the vehicle's high-voltage battery will drain after a period of time and the gasoline engine will begin to run. If the gas engine runs for a long period of time within an enclosed space, such as a garage, carbon monoxide could build up. GM is aware of two injuries, both related to carbon monoxide build up. The total recall population including Canada and exports is 64,186. Related Video:
GM's latest production delays: Colorado/Canyon, Cadillac CT4/CT5, Camaro
Wed, Mar 24 2021DETROIT — General Motors Co extended production cuts in North America on Wednesday due to a worldwide semiconductor chip shortage that has impacted the auto sector. The U.S. automaker said its Wentzville, Missouri, assembly plant would be idled during the weeks beginning March 29 and April 5. It will extend down time at its plant in Lansing, Michigan, which has been idled since March 15, by two weeks. The action was factored into GM's prior forecast that it could shave up to $2 billion off this year's profit, spokesman David Barnas said. GM did not disclose how much volume would be lost by the move, but said it intended to make up as much lost production as possible later in the year. The chip shortage came as North American auto plants were shut for two months during the COVID-19 pandemic last year and chip orders were canceled, and as demand surged from the consumer electronics industry as people worked from home and played video games. That's now left carmakers competing for chips. Semiconductors are used extensively in cars, including to monitor engine performance, manage functions for everything from steering to automatic windows, and in sensors used in parking and entertainment systems. Vehicles affected by the GM production cuts include the mid-sized pickup trucks, the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon in Missouri, and the Cadillac CT4 and CT5 and Chevy Camaro cars in Michigan. Meanwhile, GM said its San Luis Potosi, Mexico, assembly plant, idled since Feb. 8, will resume production with two shifts beginning the week of April 5. Last week, GM said it was building certain 2021 light-duty full-size pickups without a fuel management module, hurting their fuel economy performance by one mile per gallon. Exacerbating the shortage is a recent fire at a Renesas Electronics chip plant in Japan. Barnas said GM was assessing the impact of the fire. Â
