Hi, I'm selling my California born 1962 Chevy Impala. As you can see by the pics this car is in very good condition in & out. Below I will try and describe to you exactly what I see and know about the car.

Starting with the outside: A fairly new 2 stage blackberry paint job over a really straight and rust free body. Paint job is very nice and looks black at night and at certain All the chrome including front and rear bumpers are rechromed in show quality triple chrome plating. All the stainless is redone also. Basically everything on the outside is new or redone. There's a new hood lip molding, headlight bezels, license plate frames, parking lamp lenses, windshield wipers, rear antennas, outer door handles, all emblems, taillights, top grill ornaments, mirrors, f&r window chrome, rubbers, front bumper guard, and door moldings. Rear panel is color matched to the rims(nice touch), and all side glass and frames all look to be original but still in real good shape. All exterior headlights, tail lights, and turn signals are in proper working order.

Inside: the inside is completely redone top to bottom. It was redone in a two tone burgundy pattern that looks really clean as you can see by the pics. There's all new seat covers and foam, door panels, arm rests bases, and inner door handles, headliner & visors, new carpet & floormats, rear deck lid panel with custom Impala insignia, door sill plates, leather kick panels, dash bezel, front seat side chrome, repainted dash & steering wheel, rear ashtrays, dome lamp lenses & covers, rearview mirror & bracket, turn signal lever & shift column lever, all pedal covers, e-brake handle, all window cranks, new dash pad, 3 gauge pod, and door locks & ferrules. A custom after market stereo CD player mounted in glove box with 2 6x9s on rear panel. Dash lights and done lamp lenses work. Headliner top stainless is all original and shows some normal flaws.

Motor & Transmission: Nicely detailed engine and bay. Newer crate 350 motor with receipts and lots of power and maybe 1,500 miles on it. All accessories are new. Painted block, all billet finned valve covers, air cleaner, wire looms, aftermarket headers, mild cam, new battery, alternator, hoses, belts, water pump, fresh tuneup, hei distributor, chrome thermostat housing, new radiator cap, radiator overflow bottle and stainless covered heater hoses. This is a power steering and power brake car and they both are in proper working order.
Transmission is a power glide that was rebuilt when the motor was replaced and shifts as it should. Very strong running car. Could be used as a daily driver if needed or your weekend hot rod for your local car show.

Rims & Tires: Brand new staggered Streeter Showwheels in the classic grey. Rim size is 20x10s in the rear with 265-35-20 tires. Front rim size is 20x8 with 245-35-20 tires. I also have a set of stocks with newer tires if you prefer the original look. Aftermarket springs were added for a more aggressive stance. Brakes are brand new front and back along with wheel cylinders.

Trunk & Undercarriage: Trunk is very clean and recently sprayed with a black speckle paint and trooped off with a new 3 piece trunk mat. Undercarriage is very clean and doesn't show any signs of rust anywhere. Nice sounding flowmasters with chrome tips cut before the rear wheels.

Thank you for reading my posting. Above I've described the car to the best of my knowledge. This car is priced to sell. Please email the above listing, or text or call if you have any further questions 408-712-942seven

2015 Chevy Colorado takes Motor Trend Truck of the Year calipers [w/videos]

Wed, Dec 3 2014

The final winner of Motor Trend's prestigious Golden Calipers has been named, with the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado taking the title of 2015 Truck of the Year, likely shocking those who thought Ford's all-aluminum, next-generation F-150 would take the crown. But win the Colorado did, beating not only the new Ford, but two other brutish Blue Ovals in the F-450 and Transit. The midsize pickup also bested its brethren from General Motors, beating the heavy-duty Chevy Silverado 3500, GMC Sierra Denali 2500 and the GMC Canyon, the Colorado's fraternal twin. After an unprecedented two-year stint with the Golden Calipers, Ram sat this year's awards out. Most impressive about the Colorado's victory isn't that it simply beat the US market's other trucks, it did so with a unanimous vote. Praise from MT's editors focused on the trucklet's price, spacious interior, fit and finish and performance. Former Autoblog staffer Jonny Lieberman called the Colorado's steering the best he'd "ever experienced on any truck, full stop," in MT's awards article. "After days of testing, hundreds of miles on the road, and our most rigorous truck testing program to date, our editors unanimously selected the Chevy Colorado as our 2015 Truck of the Year," said MT boss Edward Loh. "Colorado is a smart, capable, and refreshingly honest truck that makes a strong value and efficiency statement. It's perfectly sized and suited for the needs of many of today's truck users." The Colorado joins the 2015 Volkswagen Golf and 2015 Honda CR-V among Motor Trend 2015 award winners.

AMC Trans Am Javelin SST, an ultra-rare underdog, is up for auction

Sat, Sep 9 2023

Among the rarest of the American muscle cars that went racing in the early Seventies — cars including the Camaro Z/28 and the Boss 302 Mustang — the 1970 AMC Trans Am Javelin SST may be the most hard to find, and among the most valuable. Only 100 units of this unique Javelin were produced, and one of them is up for auction at the Mecum event in Dallas on September 20. The Trans Am Javelin was fashioned in a patriotic livery of tricolor paint — red, white and blue — and arrived after the American Motors Corporation had decided in 1968 to compete in the Trans Am racing series against Ford and General Motors. The company's chief driver, Mark Donohue, would dominate the 1971 season, taking seven wins in his Javelin AMX and that yearÂ’s SCCA Trans-Am Championship. AMC took the trophy with 82 points, well ahead of Ford's 61, Chevrolet's 17 and Pontiac's paltry 7. The example listed for auction came equipped with a 390-cubic-inch V-8 engine with 325 horsepower at 5,000 rpm and 420 pound-feet of torque, power steering and brakes, dual exhaust, BorgWarner four-speed manual transmission and Hurst competition shifter. Its “ram induction system” sealed a chamber around the air filter so that cool air from the functional hood scoop would be funneled into the intake. This JavÂ’s factory price was $3,995 — a mere $32,000 or so in today's money, though it was expensive by the standards of the time. The 100 Trans Ams were among 19,714 Javelin units built in 1970, so they started out rare, and today the surviving examples are highly collectible, if and when they come up for sale.

GM veteran Bryan Nesbitt tapped to head Buick design

Sat, Jun 6 2015

General Motors styling veteran Bryan Nesbitt (pictured above) took over a new role on Monday as executive director of global Buick design and global architectures. Andrew Smith, who previously did that job and also coordinated the look for Cadillac, has remained in charge of the pen at Caddy with this shift. Nesbitt rose to prominence when he designed the Chrysler PT Cruiser, according to Automotive News. He joined GM in 2001 and has been there ever since in multiple high-level roles. In 2007, he was appointed vice president of design for North America and was later briefly general manager of Cadillac in 2009-2010. Nesbitt took over as the vice president of GM's international operations design in China in 2011. This shuffle also moves Ken Parkinson, currently styling boss for Chevrolet trucks, to China as design vice president there. In addition, John Cafaro becomes the person in charge of the look for Chevy globally, rather than previously splitting that role between cars and trucks with Parkinson. GM Global Design Leadership Changes – effective June 1, 2015. Bryan Nesbitt, Design Vice President, GM China will repatriate to North America and assume the position of Executive Director, Global Buick and Global Architectures. He will be located in Warren, MI. Bryan will be the design Champion for Buick in the US and China. Ken Parkinson, Executive Director, Global Chevrolet Trucks and Global Architecture will assume the position of Design Vice President, GM China. He will be based in Shanghai, China. Andrew Smith, Executive Director, Global Cadillac and Buick Design will assume the position of Executive Director, Global Cadillac. He will continue to be the design Champion for the Cadillac brand. In addition, he will continue to lead the Global Color & Trim team. He will be based in Warren, Michigan. John Cafaro, Executive Director, Global Chevrolet Cars will assume the position of Executive Director, Global Chevrolet. He will be the design Champion for Chevrolet. In addition, John will lead the exterior components and accessories team. He will continue to be based in Warren, MI. The roles and responsibilities of Helen Emsley, Mark Adams, Carlos Barba, Clay Dean, Michael Simcoe, and Teckla Rhoades remain the same.
