1966 Chevrolet Impala Ss Coupe True Super Sport on 2040-cars
Kearneysville, West Virginia, United States
1966 Impala SS This is a true Super Sport (see vin plate in picture to verify) and is the perfect car whether you are looking for an easy restoration project or just a weekend cruiser that will turn heads. You will not find a better Impala to restore or even for a quick flip! These cars are rare and one in this condition is all but impossible to find and only has 82K original miles. This beast drives great, has power steering, has NO rust anywhere and body is straight. The previous owner put it on a lift so I could look at the undercarriage and I tried my hardest to find rust and simply couldn’t as it was ordered with a factory undercoat that really did it’s job and was always garage kept. The only thing that wasn’t coated and did rust was the trunk pan and it was cut out and professionally replaced by the previous owner. It currently sits with the original 283 motor with a Edelbrock intake manifold and dual 4 barrel carb it also has a custom stainless dual exhaust. It runs great and I have driven it on several 2 hour trips with no worries. The seats, carpets, and vinyl top have all been professionally restored to factory original just a few days ago so the interior is 85% completely restored. All the electric windows work flawlessly but the switch on the passenger side does need to be replaced. Issues: Driver side brake light out. I replaced the bulb and the blinkers don’t work so it’s an electrical issue but with these cars that’s an easy fix. Rubber window and door seals need to be replaced. There is a small ding in the front grill but my body guy says he could easily work it out and replacement isn’t necessary, see attached picture. The interior other than floors and seats does need restoration. Lots of the chrome inside can be restored but some does need replacing. Everything is functional but some work and cash is needed to get everything showroom perfect. The motor runs great but there is a small oil leak and if I were going to keep it I would rebuild the engine and paint it and clean up the engine compartment just to make everything look pretty. There are some trim pieces that need replacing and other minor cosmetic work but overall this car is in unbelievable condition. The only reason I am getting rid of this car is that I had bought this car because it was too good to pass up and did plan on restoring it but I just found the car I really want to restore for sale and want to get the money out of this so I can buy that. Vin number shows that this is a true Super Sport. The average price for this car is $19,834. We are selling this one for well below that for an above average car. Go to Haggerty.com and see the potential value of this car. You can call me on my cell at 360-742-8213 with any questions. Thanks! |

Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
24 Hours of Le Mans live update part two
Sun, Jun 19 2016We tasked surfing journalist Rory Parker to watch this year's live stream of the 2016 24 Hours of Le Mans. What follows is an experiment to experience the world's greatest endurance race from the perspective of a motorsports novice. Parker lives in Hawaii and can hold his breath longer than he can go without swearing. For Part One, click here. Or you can skip ahead to Part Three here. I write about surfing for a living. If you can call it a living. Basically means I spend my days fucking around and my wife pays for everything. Because she's got a real job that pays well. Brings home the bacon. Very progressive arrangement. Super twenty first century. I run a surf website, beachgrit.com, with two other guys. It's a strange gig. More or less uncensored. Kind of popular. Very good at alienating advertisers. My behavior has cost us a few bucks. I'm terrible at self-censorship. Know there's a line out there, no idea where it lies. I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. For contests I do long rambling write ups. They rarely make much sense. Mainly just talk about my life, whatever random thoughts pop into my head. "Can you do something similar for Le Mans?" "Sure, but I know absolutely fuck-all about racing." "That's okay. Just write what you want." "Will do. But you're gonna need to edit my stuff. Probably censor it heavily." So here I am. I spent the last week trying to learn all I can about the sport of endurance racing. But there's only so much you can jam in your head. And I still don't understand any of the technical side. Might as well be astrophysics or something. While I rambled things were happening. Tracy Krohn spun into the gravel on the Forza chicane. #89 is out of the race after an accident I missed. Pegasus racing hit the wall on the Porsche curves. Bashed up front end, in the garage getting fixed. Toyota and Porsche are swapping back and forth in the front three. Ford back in the lead in GTE Pro. #91 Porsche took a stone through the radiator, down two laps. Not good. The wife and I are one of those weird childless couples that spend way too much time caring for the needs of their pet. French bulldog, Mr Eugene Victor Debs. Great little guy. Spent the last four years training him to be obedient and friendly. Nice thing about dogs, when you're sick of dealing with them you can just lock 'em in another room for a few hours. You don't need to worry about paying for college.
MotorWeek looks back at 1995 Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon
Sat, Jun 20 2015MotorWeek's Retro Review series gives us a nostalgic look back at some of the best sports cars and luxury sedans available in the 1980s and '90s. For its latest clip, the show shifts gears to remember the 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon. Similar to the success of crossovers today, SUVs were tallying big sales and making big money for automakers in the mid-'90s. The Tahoe and Yukon filled slots in the market as steps down from the larger Suburban. These twins weren't wanting for space, though, with plenty of room to haul around a family. MotorWeek came away generally impressed too, and called the models some "of the better riding sport utilities we've ever experienced." This review comes with some jazzy, electric guitar licks to enjoy in the background.
