You are bidding on a 1963 chevy impala, this beauty has the rare anniversary gold paint, in the early 80s the car was purchased from an estate sale in Kentucky, which it only had 8,000 miles at that time, i have pictures of the car when it was original it was very clean with hardly any rust at all, these pictures will be included in the sale. In 2001 the impala recieved a frame off restoration,which I also have the pictures of that being done as well which will also be included in the sale.The 283 automatic car became a 350 4 speed manual at this time, I do have the original 283 if the winning bidder would like it. Im sure it would need to be rebuilt after years of sitting.The frame off was done right,every nut and bolt was replaced or restored as well,the frame,trunk floor boards, are solid with no rust since the restore the car has less than 4000 miles it has never seen rain,snow,salt etc. I am selling this car because I am down sizing and no longer have a home for it I will include as many pics as ebay will let me including the frame sitting on 4 tires. I have to sell quick so this will be a no reserve 5 day auction so please bid early and often for you will not be dissapointed. This car can be filled up and driven anywhere, I took one last 2 hour cruise yesterday and again would drive it anywhere,I felt like we should spend one more day together,before she gets her new owner, as I stated the car has to go so if your not gonna follow through please do not bid. Winnning bidder must immediately give a $1000 deposit through pay pal and the car must be picked up before June 5TH because of my down sizing I am forced to leave the state, so if you cant pick it up by 6/5/13 please dont bid.I am willing to pick anyone up at Chicagos Midway Airport if they need a ride, again this car can be driven anywhere with confidence,motor,tranny,lights, brakes, etc are all in working order,there are a couple flaws,a ding in the chrome here or there,a little chip in the steering wheel,nothing that is gonna cause the winner any headaches. There are absolutely no leaks ever under the car its been in my garage for years with no puddles,of any type,so no worries there.Again I hate the fact of selling it but there is no place for it where I am going,and I want her to have the home she deserves, as she has had the past 30 some yrs or so I also have the original owners manual,the original Kentucky plate that was on the car when it was registered in 1963 to its first owner I am the second. The Impala turned 50 this year and is near perfect,but remember she is 50 and the restore was 12 years ago, so its not percect,but it will win some shows thats for sure,there is no holes in dash, the original am stero sits in it still, so if you are looking for a car with jams you will have to buy some. The tires are good,brakes good I could go on and but I will let you judge, I have a crazy work schedule,so If there are any questions I will answer as fast as I can. The car must be paid in full at time of pick-up minus the $1000 deposit thru pay pal. The title will be signed over to the winner and off you go in your classic 1963 Impala that will ony increase in value as the years pass by. Again bid with confidence, I dont have a ton of feedback but its 100% I tell the truth. The car is all there you will not be dissapointed. Thanks for your interest,good luck and Happy Bidding. I have had over 70 questions on the car,and most of them wanted a buy it now so I added that to the listing. Also about the miles the car had 8000 roughly on it when I purchased,when it thru the restore a 350 crate motor and a brand new muncie 4 speed where installed so the motor and tranny have approximately 4000 miles thats the bottom line the car now has almost 12,000 and drive train only 4000 thanks and Good Luck. The car may be sold at anytime,during this auction and if somebody wants to make a reasonable offer feel free I want to sell asap but its not a must and in my opinion the buy it now is $10,000 to cheap. There are not many of these around,and this one is a turn key car,drive it store it collect it whatever your pleasure.

Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme
Mon, 17 Dec 2012They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.
GM admits goal of 500,000 EVs by 2017 won't be met
Sat, May 9 2015After a little over four years of Chevy Volt sales, General Motors has a better handle on how many people it expects will buy cars with plugs. And it's less than the company thought back in 2012, when then-senior vice president of global product development, Mary Barra, said that GM expected to sell 500,000 "vehicles with electrification" by 2017. In a sustainability report released this week, GM says that half-million vehicle target will not be met but that it still, "believes the future is electric." In the report, GM says that, "For our commitment to electrification, our forecasted outlook currently projects us, along with the broader automotive industry, falling short of expectations for 2017. ... We continue to aspire to our stated goal." GM's electric lineup includes the Volt, the recently popular Spark EV, the slow-selling Cadillac ELR and upcoming Malibu Hybrid, CT6 plug-in hybrid and eAssist technology in the Buick LaCrosse and Regal. GM says it has 180,834 electrified vehicles on the road in the US today. In 2013, it had 153,034; 95,578 in 2012, and 39,843 in 2011. The company's next big plug-in vehicle will be the second-gen Chevy Volt, which is coming to market later this year, followed by the 200-mile Bolt EV coming, we think, in 2017. GM Employees on Mission to Transform Transportation Sustainability report outlines vehicle and manufacturing progress; sets new targets 2015-05-07 DETROIT – General Motors' just-released sustainability report chronicles efforts by the company's 216,000 employees to live out GM's newly defined purpose and values by earning customer loyalty, applying meaningful technology advances and improving the communities where it does business. These actions – led by CEO Mary Barra – further drive sustainability into the company's culture through building safer and smarter vehicles with less environmental impact. "GM will take a leading role in the auto industry's transformation as it undergoes an unprecedented period of change," said Bob Ferguson, senior vice president, GM Global Public Policy. "From GM's labs to its assembly lines, our people are driving the world to a better place through improved mobility." The company believes the future is electric, with billions of investment to support an all-in-house approach to the development and manufacturing of electrified vehicles. It now counts 180,834 on the road in the U.S – up from 153,034 in 2013.
First privately owned Corvette Stingray blitzes 1/4 mile in 12.23 at 114.88 mph
Tue, 01 Oct 2013Chevrolet's latest road rocket, the Corvette Stingray, is a very quick car. If one needs further proof of that, we recommend they take a look at this video from Hennessey of what is claimed to be the first privately owned C7 Corvette to make a pass down the quarter mile. Not just any quarter mile, mind, this black C7 blitzed its way down the tuner's primary testing dragstrip. The Chevrolet ran the quarter in just 12.23 seconds at 114.88 miles per hour. That is a very quick time for a stock car.
Equipped with the Z51 package and a six-speed automatic transmission, not only does the C7 run a solid time, but it does so with little to no drama. That won't last though, as Hennessey will likely return it to its owner with far more power - we just hope they show a drag run of the completed product. Take a look below to watch the C7's 12.23-second run on video.
