1966 Impala Convertible-I recently aquired this car from the original owner. It is a 1 owner car-It has a 283 and a powerglide trans. I will tell you what I know about the car. He told me it has had 1 repsray in the original red. The interior is all original. The motor is all original as is the trans and rear end. He told me that on the re-spray he had the original antenna hole filled on the front fender and is now cracked and coming through. He also had the original seams filled on the back header panel.And the trunk lid has some little specks of surface rust just starting to bubble a little-I took pics but they dont even show in the pics. It also has a small scratch that I took a pic of. But its not deep and has no rust-I took a pic again but it doesnt show. Other than that there is no bodywork on the body. He did however put a little patch of bondo in the trunk right below the boot. He should have left it alone. I noticed it and asked. He should have paid to have it done. It doesnt look too bad but should have left it alone. The rest of the trunk is excellent with no rust anywhere. I took a picture of the area. The frame and floors on this car are in excellent condition!!!! As are the trunk pan extensions,rockers doors quarters and fenders-they are excellent-The car could eventually use paint but looks great the way it is. He told me the odometer was correct at 20,000 miles-I find it hard to believe but thats what he told me. You be the judge.The bumpers are excellent and shine great and are original,the stainless is very good too. The interior is all original and very nice as are the floor boards and frame rails on the car-I couldnt believe how nice they are. The car is starting to fade a little in some places, it still shines very well. He moved the antenna to the back of the car as he had a CB in it during the 70's. The seats,door panels and carpet and dash are really very nice. He did put speakers in the doors back in the 70's. I also took a pic. It has an aftermarket radio and 8-track player mounted in the glovebox. The seats have no rips or tears or wear marks-They are very nice. and original. as is the carpet in the car-The convertible top is power and works fine. It has a nice glass back window. The only flaw in the top is that one of the seams is coming apart and needs to be stitched. I took a pic of this too-It could be fixed right at home. The rest of the top is very good as are the bows,and all the hardware to the top. It works perfect. The boot to the car is the original also and fits nicely. I just purchased brand new American Racing Torque Thrust "D" rims. Chrome---With brand new BFG tires. I put as big as I could without them hitting or rubbing.The car runs and drives perfect. No rattles or clunks and gooes down the road as straight as the day it left the showroom. I forgot the horn button clear plastic is cracked. It has full duel exhaust and is quiet. Not sure what mufflers it has but they are pretty quiet. The car does not smoke or use any oil. All gauges and lights work as they should. All the idiot lights on the dash also work. I have a NYS Transferable registration with the car. NYS does not have titles before 1973-I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere-It really runs great and gets compliments everywhere it goes. Its a great car for cruise ins and local shows or just a night out. I have been driving it on a regular basis for the past 3 weeks. Its hard to find a nice straight car like this. The body is so straight and the frame and floors are so nice on this car-Please e-mail me with any questions you may have. As usual it is being offered at No reserve. I try and sell all of my cars no reserve! I have 100% positive feedback for a reason. And I sell quite a few cars on here. Check my feedback-I try to be as honest as I can-Please ask any questions and if you want to see certain pictures feel free to ask and I will gladly take them. Or feel free to come and see the car. It is located in my garage in Elmira New York 14905--

GM looks to combat high theft rates on SUVs with added tech
Tue, 24 Dec 2013The Cadillac Escalade has been at or near the top of most-stolen and insurance-loss lists for more than seven years, until it dropped to number six earlier this year. In 2011 it was fitted with a host of new security features to address its easy-to-override features and that has brought the number of thefts down, but when eight of the ten most stolen rides are large SUVs from General Motors, no one will argue that something else needs to be done.
Thus, GM has fitted this same theft-deterring tech to the 2015 Suburban, Tahoe and Yukon. The Suburban and Tahoe will get the steering lock that the Escalade and Yukon already get, plus bolted-down third-row seats to deter thefts like this, stronger door lock cylinders and shields, and side-cut keys to inhibit picking.
Additional security measures in a Theft Protection Package can be purchased for $395, consisting of sensors on the greenhouse glass and interior, an incline/tilt sensor and added "key control systems" to make it more difficult for the men in black balaclavas to steal what you bought.
C7 Corvette turbo with 1,000 horsepower promised from Hennessey
Mon, 25 Feb 2013If you can't wait for the next-generation Chevrolet Corvette ZR1, Hennessey says they will have you covered. The Texas-based company has announced it will offer a spate of upgrades for the 2014 Corvette ranging from a range of bolt-on options all the way up to a 1,000-horsepower, twin-turbo system. Buyers can start with a cold air intake, cat-back exhaust or stainless steel long-tube headers, but Hennessey says it will also offer up three stages of forced induction mayhem should those bits and baubles not provide enough thrust.
Those choices start with a supercharger system good for up to 700 hp, though Hennessey will gladly ditch the blower in favor of two turbos. Doing so will spin the crank to the tune of 800 horsepower all the way up to a certifiably ludicrous 1,000 ponies. There's no word on how much these tricks will cost you - or when they will be available, as we're guessing they haven't gotten their hands on the car yet - but you can head over to the Hennessey site to drop them a line if you're curious.
2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit
Tue, 15 Jan 2013There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
