1963 Chevrolet Impala on 2040-cars
Bella Vista, California, United States
If you have any questions please email at: heikehkklebanow@ukjo.com . Hi, up for grabs is my 1963 Chevy Impala. As you can see by the pics below this car is in very good condition in
and out. This car just underwent a mild restoration and shows real well. Below I will try and describe exactly what
I see and know about this car.
Starting With The Outside: Laser straight and rust free body sprayed with a nice blue paint job. Car was taken
apart and painted correctly. Has some orange peel but doesn't take away from car. All the front and rear stainless
looks to have been polished out at some time and still looks real good. All glass is in good shape with no cracks
or scratches....looks to be the originals. Bumpers are clean originals possibly redone at one time before. There's
new side moldings, emblems, taillights, weatherstrips, license plates & placards, rear dual antennas and outer
mirrors. Headlights, taillights, and turn signals all work as they should. Also, for California buyers I have a set
of cleared black and yellow plates for the car.
Inside: Completely redone and looks great. There's new seat foam & covers, headliner & visors, door panels,
armrests & bases, inner door handles, all window cranks, rear ash trays, inner glovebox, door sill plates, all
pedal covers, tachometer, Impala floor mats, horn ring assembly, etc... You get the idea....basically everything
new. Dash and steering wheel were removed and painted and reinstalled...few things need to be hooked back up, but
everything is there. ( Front floor mats are brand new and had not flattened out yet at time of pics).
Motor & Transmission: Motor is a real strong 350 that was completely gone through when pulled out for paint...maybe
2,500 miles . There's a nice chrome dress up kit that was added to clean it up a bit. Also put a new battery,
alternator, aluminum radiator, chrome Spectre aircleaner, and optikleen bottle. Transmission is a close ratio
manual 4 speed that shifts fine. Clutch is new and works fine but takes some getting used to...not like driving a
Honda haha.
Suspension & Rims and Tires, Etc : Frontend bushings, wheel cylinders, and front and rear brakes are newer. Car is currently rolling on a
new set of staggered 20inch Foose wheels that look great...slight rub on inner fenders when making tight turns but
nothing drastic. I have a set of stock rims and tires and hubcaps if you prefer the original look. Undercarriage is
original and clean with no signs of any problem areas. Dual exhaust system that sounds real strong. Trunk is real
clean with no visible signs of rust or soft spots. I speckle painted it and added a new 3 piece trunk mat kit, and
jacking instructions decal.
Thank you !

AMC Trans Am Javelin SST, an ultra-rare underdog, is up for auction
Sat, Sep 9 2023Among 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. No bid estimate is available yet. Related Video: Motorsports Chevrolet Ford Pontiac Auctions Automotive History Racing Vehicles Classics
We really want to use an eCrate to restomod an old GM car. Here's what we'd build
Fri, Oct 30 2020You hopefully saw the news today of GM's introduction of its Connect and Cruise eCrate motor and battery package, which effectively makes the Bolt's electric motor, battery pack and myriad other elements available to, ah, bolt into a different vehicle. It's the same concept as installing a gasoline-powered crate motor into a classic car, but with electricity and stuff. This, of course, got us thinking about what we'd stuff the eCrate into. Before we got too ahead of ourselves, however, we discovered that the eCrate battery pack is literally the Bolt EV pack in not only capacity but size and shape. In other words, you need to have enough space in the vehicle to place and/or stuff roughly 60% of a Chevy Bolt's length. It's not a big car, but that's still an awful lot of real estate. There's a reason GM chose to simply plop the pack into the bed and cargo area of old full-size SUVs. Well that, and having a rear suspension beefy enough to handle about 1,000 pounds of batteries. So after that buzz kill, we still wanted to peruse the GM back catalog for classics we'd love to see transformed into an electric restomod that might be able to swallow all that battery ... maybe ... possibly ... whatever, saws and blow torches exist for a reason. 1971 Buick Riviera Consumer Editor Jeremy Korzeniewski: If you’re going to build an electric conversion, why not do it with style? ThatÂ’s why IÂ’m choosing a 1971-1973 Buick Riviera. You know, the one with the big glass boat-tail rear end that ends in a pointy V. Being a rather large vehicle with a big sloping fastback shape, IÂ’m hoping thereÂ’s enough room in the trunk and back seat to pack in the requisite battery pack. That would likely require cutting away some of the metal bulkhead that supports the rear seatback, but not so much that a wee bit of structural bracing couldnÂ’t shore things up. The big 455-cubic-inch Buick V8 up front will obviously have to go. Remember, this was the 1970s, so despite all that displacement, the Riviera only had around 250 horsepower (depending on the year and the trim level). So the electric motorÂ’s 200 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque ought to work as an acceptable replacement.  1982 Chevrolet S10 Associate Editor Byron Hurd: OK, so the name "E-10" is already taken by a completely different truck, but let's not let labels get in the way of a fun idea.
Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts
Wed, 27 Feb 2013There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.
