Cheney, Washington, United States

 1973 Chevrolet Caprice Classic, Original "454" car with Turbo 400. It has the original engine, transmission and rear end. It looks like original paint and other than a few dings and dents and some rust on the lower sections, the car is a good old solid car. It has factory air conditioning, power steering, power disc brakes, after market cruise control, remote outside mirror, tilt steering wheel, factory fender skirts, factory under hood light, factory trunk light, factory bumper guards. The speedometer says 54,204 miles, but I would imagine that it has 154,204 miles? I have no way of knowing if it the speedometer has been turned over or not. The car needs a total restoration in my eyes, but it's up to you. We bought the car in 1998 and it was our daily driver until 2001. We parked it due to fuel costs because of of long commute to work, it was running and driving fine until that point. We were driving it around 35-40 miles a day, mostly freeway miles. So it's been parked behind our shop since 2001. I put a new battery and a new set of points in the distributor and some gas in the tank and it fired right up last month. We drove it in the shop, changed the oil and filter, cleaned it up a little and put it up for sale. The engine still sounds pretty good and the transmission works in all gears, but the brakes seem to be hanging up a little. It is a original green car with a vinyl top and green interior. I do have a few extra parts that I will throw in off of a 1972 Chevy Impala, a front bumper and a transmission cross member. They look similar to the Caprice, if you don't want them let me know. It would be a fun project for someone who likes these bigger cars. We have more pictures of the car if you want them or if there is some part of the car you would like to see better, just let me know. We tried to get pictures on Ebay to cover most of the car that we could. If you have any questions at all, please give me a call at 509-701-3633. The car will be sold as is. Thanks for looking, good luck. There will be a $1000.00 non-refundable deposit due as soon as the auction ends and payment due in full within 3 days of auction close. Pay Pal will work for the deposit and either cash in person or bank wire transfer, no exceptions.

Crash victim found still inside car 6 hours after it was towed away [w/video]

Wed, Jan 7 2015

Police near Dayton, OH, have quite a confusing case on their hands after the victim of a crash early on New Year's Day couldn't initially be found. Six hours later, the man was discovered lying on the vehicle's floorboard at the tow yard. The unidentified person was admitted to a local hospital in critical condition with possible leg injuries. The police first responded to the scene of the crash around 3:00 am on New Year's Day when a Chevrolet Impala hit a utility pole and drove through a fence, according to WHIO News. The authorities claim that they searched for the man for an hour and a half and came up with nothing. The car was then hauled away to the yard, which was only about 500 feet away. The tow yard worker found the man around 9:00 am and called 911. However, he was clearly dubious about the injured man's predicament and suggested to the operator that he might have returned to the Impala. Police are still investigating the incident. According to WHIO, authorities might have somehow missed the man in the sedan during the search. Alternatively, he could have left the scene of the accident and later returned. Watch the video below for more about this bizarre case. The video meant to be presented here is no longer available. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Can A Fleet Queen Become a Fullsize King?
On paper, the Chevrolet Impala is a pretty strong seller, posting annual sales that have hovered right around 170,000 units for the last two years, but it only takes one trip to practically any rental car agency to discover where the majority of those sales have come from. In fact, General Motors told Autoblog that a full 70 percent of Impala sales last year went to fleet companies for things like rental cars and government vehicles. Logic tells us that this is neither good for resale values nor name equity, so Chevrolet is getting ready to roll out an all-new Impala with improved comfort, styling and technology, hoping to turn the tables on its retail-to-fleet ratio.
Chevrolet's sedans have come on quite strong in the last few months with the introduction of the Cruze diesel and the SS sedan, but while these will likely be low-volume sellers, there's more pressure for the new Impala to perform well as GM looks to slash fleet sales and compete with the wide variety of full-size sub-luxury sedans. Riding on a platform shared with the Buick LaCrosse and Cadillac XTS, the 2014 Impala will compete against the Hyundai Azera, Ford Taurus and Toyota Avalon on the more traditional side, while also looking to take a bite out of somewhat sportier models like the Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger twins and the Nissan Maxima. We headed to sunny San Diego to see if this totally new Impala can stand on its own without the assistance of fleet companies and rental agencies. [w/video

Man spent $75 on a truck that lasted 38 years

Mon, Jan 5 2015

Absurd as it is, some buyers today are worried about getting their car to last throughout the term of their seven-year car loan. Minnesota resident Bob Sportel has the opposite issue: his Chevrolet truck seemingly won't die. Sportel needed a cheap ride to get to work when he took a job at a farmer's co-op 38 years ago, so he bought a rusty 1957 Chevy pickup for $75 from a farmer; at the time, the 20-year-old truck was almost as old as Bob was. After nearly four decades of daily driving and an estimated 300,000 miles, Sportel is still driving the truck today. Bolts secure a fender, Bondo secures the lights, what looks like a whole roll of duct tape keeps him sitting on the bench seat instead of in it. For a 58-year-old pickup that's never seen a garage or a new coat of paint – but did get its oil changed four times a year – that's not bad; Sportel thinks his repair bill hasn't got above $1,000 for the entire time he's owned the truck. He still has no plans to get rid of it, saying, "It just becomes a part of you." You can watch his story in the video above. News Source: KARE11.com Chevrolet Truck Classics Videos
