Selling my 1966 Impala Super Sport. This car has 66,465 original miles at present. I purchased this car in 2005 from the nephew of the original owners who inherited it at their passing.It has always been kept under cover(garage or pole barn). This SS has the numbers matching 327 v-8 and powerglide transmission. She runs exceptionally well with no problems. This was an all original,down to the date coded spark plug wires car when I bought it. Originally Irmine white exterior, I did have it painted 2005GM Arrival Blue metallic after stripping her down to bare metal.All moldings and emblems were removed before painting.There was never any rust or damage to the body.She sports all the original sheetmetal in place where the factory installed it. The interior is ALL original with the exception of the under dash CD unit. The only places of concern inside are the bottoms of the bucket seats have seam splits,(They are 47 years old after all)and a couple of cracks in the original dash pad. Everything else is in great shape for the age. There is still one build sheet under the carpet and I have another one from under the rear seat.Everything inside works including the seat belt retractors and the clock will run if the car is driven regularly and often.Even the peddle rubber and chrome show little wear. I have added a few modern upgrades to make her more driver friendly and safer however I kept every original piece I removed.They will of course go with the car. The center console has the original carpet in place along with the console light.Some of the upgrades include power(front disc) brakes,HEI distributor and plug wires,dual exhaust and mufflers(I did not keep the old exhaust),Edlebrock 600 CFM carb.,new fuel pump,radiator and air shocks.I installed a set of old style slots wrapped in BFGoodrich Radial T/As.(I have the original steel wheels and SS wheel covers).I also had many new front suspension parts installed(bushings and the like). The car has all original glass and even the original trunk spatter paint and trunk light. I really do like and enjoy this SS and the fact that it was never abused,wrecked or neglected. That said I believe I have put less than 3,000 miles on her since '05 and I hate to see her sit. So if you're looking for a really nice turn key Impala SS, that you can drive as is or add you own flavor to,I don't think you'll find one nicer for the money. In picture #3,youll see a reflection off the driveway at the door bottom. There is nothing wrong with the doors paint.I'm not looking to make a killing on her but I'm not going to give her away either. Check the price books and NADA listing. I can't part with her for less than $15,000 and I feel she's a deal at that price.So bid with confidence and bid only if you mean it. No scammers and no 0% feedbacks w/o contacting me first.Shipping is up to buyer but I will be available to help with loading.I reserve the right to end this auction at anytime. Thanks for looking.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles
Fri, 04 Jan 2013As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.
Scroll down for the full list of GM's million 30+ mpg cars as well as an informative press release.
Weekly Recap: Lamborghini to build SUV
Sat, May 30 2015Finally, Lamborghini will build a sport utility vehicle. The Italian supercar maker confirmed this week that it will launch a luxury SUV in 2018. It will be built at Lamborghini's soon-to-expand factory in Sant'Agata Bolognese in Italy, and will double the company's current sales volume. Lamborghini did not announce a name for the vehicle or other details, but noted a concept version, the Urus, was displayed at the Beijing motor show in 2012. It will be sold around the world, but it's expected to be a critical offering in the United States, China, and the Middle East. The automaker projects the SUV will sell about 3,000 units per year, and it will be the third product in Lamborghini's portfolio. It currently sells the Huracan and Aventador supercars. "The introduction of a third model line endorses the stable and sustainable growth of the company and signifies for us the beginning of a new era," Lamborghini chief executive Stephan Winkelmann said in a statement. The project is also a boon for Italy, which will get 500 new jobs in the Emilia Romagna region as Lamborghini's factory will nearly double in size. Ian Fletcher, principal analyst for IHS Automotive, said the SUV will position Lamborghini for future growth. "It could well also bring new customers to the brand [who] may find the dramatic styling of Lamborghini products appealing, but find its typical sports cars restrictive," he said. "If it is a success, the SUV could be a catalyst to Lamborghini broadening its portfolio further." OTHER NEWS & NOTES GM invests in Chevy Camaro factory General Motors is investing $175 million to upgrade its factory in Lansing, MI, to build the 2016 Chevy Camaro. The investment will pay for new tooling and equipment. The improvements include three new paint systems and two new robotic framers. GM will add a second shift at the factory to build the Camaro, resulting in 500 jobs. The automaker had dropped the plant to one shift last year amid slow sales for its products, the Cadillac ATS and CTS. GM is spending $5.4 billion over the next three years to upgrade its US facilities. Last week, GM announced plans to spend $439 million to build a new paint shop for the Chevy Corvette. While the Camaro and Corvette plant improvements are intriguing to enthusiasts, GM also confirmed this week that it is investing $1.2 billion in its Fort Wayne (IN) factory that builds trucks.
