For Sale By:Dealer
Engine:283
Drive Type: 2WD
Make: Chevrolet
Mileage: 100,001
Model: Impala
Trim: Brookwood
This is a very solid Brookwood that is ready to go. It appears to be wearing its evenly weathered original paint and the trim is all there. There is not a much cooler wagon than the 59-60 Chevrolets! This one has had a professionally installed air ride system from Ride Tech installed. It consists of a 4 gallon pancake tank, Viair 480, valves and gauges that have all been hidden with the exception of the control panel for that killer stance. It also sports a set of staggered Billet Specialties with 18x8'' fronts and 20x10'' rears. The 10'' rear looks killer! This wagon has also been treated to one of our full custom interiors as you can see. Everything was completely gutted and removed for cleaning and all panels were replaced with custom fitted ABS panels. They were then wrapped with custom sewn panels made from some of the best vinyls that feel like leather, but hold up and wear better than leather. All of the metal trim in the interior was also color matched and painted for that contemporary look that is so popular right now. All of the electrical has been gone through and checked and is in working order as it should be. The drive train consists of a 283 3speed on the column that is matching to the car from what we can tell. It had a little rust in the pans on the driver side (have pictures) and we replaced them with new ones so that the floors are super solid. We have the panel for the rust in the rear quarter but we chose not to replace it at this time so that we wouldn’t harm the original patina. We can install this if the new owner chooses. This is a great car to continue restoring while you drive for a show car, or leave as is for a great looking updated original. Give us a call and come and see it for yourself! If you're unable, feel free to have someone inspect it for you. Call Brian @ 615-220-9000 for any further details. This is an auction style listing so please don't contact me for the reserve. Bid to own it.1959 Chevrolet Brookwood Wagon

The Tesla Model S was the best-selling EV of 2015
Thu, Jan 14 2016According to numbers crunched over at Hybrid Cars, the Tesla Model S was the best selling pure electric vehicle last year with 50,366 deliveries. These numbers might not tell the whole story, since Tesla reports deliveries made in 2015 that might have been sold in a different calendar year, while other makers are tallying sales. However, it's inarguable that the Model S ended up in more worldwide driveways than the second-place Nissan Leaf, which did about 43,000 sales. In the US alone, Leaf sales were down 42.8 percent year-on-year, from 30,200 in 2014 to 17,269 last year, and that decline also increased throughout the year. That marks a great finish to a great start to 2015, when Tesla took the lead in EV sales in the US for the first quarter. On top of that, as of last year the Model S becomes the second-best selling EV ever, with 107,148 deliveries since the middle of 2012. It trails the Nissan Leaf, with well over 200,000 worldwide sales. The Chevrolet Volt/Opel Ampera combo takes a close third, with about 106,000 sales. The Nissan and Chevy rivals both launched at the end of 2010, a 16-month head start on the Tesla. Down the charts, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV which continues to be forbidden fruit for our market notched 39,000 sales. The BYD Qin PHEV sold 31,898 examples in China, and BYD would take the overall victory from Tesla with 58,728 deliveries if you counted all of its EV and PHEV production, such as its electric buses. The BMW i3 nabbed fourth place with 24,057 global sales. In 2011 the Munich automaker said it wanted to sell 30,000 i3s annually by 2014, but by the time the car launched the company considered 15,000 annual sales 'great for now,' so the 2015 number seems a fine place to wind up.

Indian tuner turns Chevy Optra into Mustang 'Eleanor' replica
Fri, 03 Aug 2012If you are a big fan of automotive oddities, this may come as a little treat. If you are a Shelby or Mustang diehard, prepare to have your sensibilities violated.
The master fabricators at BigDaddyCustoms are the minds behind what you see above. At first, it appears to be a slightly misshapen custom Mustang, modeled after "Eleanor" from Gone In 60 Seconds, but upon further examination, something appears to be amiss. In fact, the custom shop, based in India, has created an Eleanor replica grafted upon a lowly Chevrolet Optra. While it may take a second for the Optra to ring a bell, you should recognize its badge-engineered sibling, the Daewoo Lacetti, used on Top Gear.
We don't know what star would opt for the Reasonably Priced Car in Shelby's clothing, but it's clearly someone more concerned with the aesthetic than the performance credentials of this automotive mash-up.
GM to trim Russian output, raise prices amid currency woes
Thu, Feb 5 2015General Motors is shutting down its factory in Russia's second largest city, St. Petersburg, from the middle of March until the middle of May as the country's currency, the ruble, continues to give economists fits. The ruble's value has plunged due not only to western sanctions, but a precipitous fall in oil prices. We knew these factors were already impacting the auto industry there, as Ford reported in its 2014 earnings statement, and now they're forcing GM to cut production at the factory, shown above, that is responsible for production of the Chevrolet Cruze and Opel Astra. Meanwhile, Automotive News is citing Russian outlet Kommersant as saying that GM has hiked its prices in the country by an average of 20 percent over the past two months. While a GM spokesman confirmed the St. Petersburg plant would be shut down for the two-month span reported by Kommersant and AN, he would not confirm the price increase.
