A 1969 CHEVROLET IMPALA CUSTOM.

ACCORDING TO COWL TAG THIS CAR WAS BUILT IN ATLANTA, GA (BA). THE SECOND WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 1968(09B).  IT WAS THE 394’TH BODY BUILT AT THAT LOCATION (394).

CAR WAS FOUND UNDER A SHED IN NORTH CAROLINA. THIS CAR IS IN GREAT CONDITION, A BARN FIND, AND A TRUE SURVIVOR.  ONE OWNER, WITH ORIGINAL TITLE. THIS CAR’S TITLE WAS ISSUED 10/24/1968.

NO MAJOR RUST ISSUES, SOME IN THE LOWER QUARTERS, ROCKERS AND A LITTLE IN FRONT BOTTOM OF PASSENGER DOOR, VINYL TOP IS SMOOTH WITH  MINOR RUST ISSUES VISABLE UNDERNEATH.  NO PANEL REPLACEMENT NECESSARY ANY RUST ON THIS CAR CAN BE FIXED BY CUT AND PATCH WITH NEW METAL.

ALL CHROME AND BODY TRIM ARE VERY STAIGHT, NO MAJOR DINGS WITH ONLY MINOR AGEING ISSUES.

THIS CAR IS A GREAT CANDIDATE FOR RESTORATION OR TO ENJOY AS IT IS. RUNS OUT GREAT, MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION ARE TOP NOTCH. NO SMOKE, NO MOTOR NOISE AND TRANNY SHIFTS OUT SMOOTH. NO MAJOR LEAKS AND STEERING IS TIGHT AND CAR STAYS IN THE ROAD WELL.

FLOOR PANS ARE SOLID AS CARPET HAS BEEN REMOVED TO SHOW. FLOOR NEEDS TO BE CLEANED, NEW INSULATION AND CARPET NEEDS TO BE INSTALLED. THE REST OF THE INTERIOR IS COMPLETELY INTACT WITH ORIGINAL SEAT COVERS, DOOR PANELS AND HEADLINER. ONE SMALL CRACK IN DASH AND CONSOLE LID AS CAN BE SEEN IN PICTURES, AN EASY FIX FOR AN INTERIOR REPAIR PERSON.

1969 WAS THE ONLY YEAR TO PRODUCE THE IMPALA WITH A 396/265 HP 2BBL.  AND ONE OF THE FEW BIG BLOCK 2BBL ORDERS…. DON’T KNOW HOW MANY OF THESE CARS ARE LEFT OUT THERE, HOWEVER I DOUBT THERE ARE MANY. BUT NO DOUBT THIS IS A RARE CAR AND WILL BE A WISE INVESTMENT FOR THE OLD CAR COLLECTOR.

Bob Lutz says Tesla remains 'fringe' brand

Sun, Sep 28 2014

We've said it before, we'll said it again: Bob Lutz gives great quotes. From his toilet-themed opinion of global warming to Toyota's deity status, the man knows how to get your attention. His latest? Saying that Tesla Motors is and will remain a fringe brand. Take that, Tesla fanbois. This, of course, is the same fringe company that prompted Lutz and his former colleagues at General Motors to start working on the Chevy Volt around eight years ago. The same fringe company that has easily outsold the similarly priced (but don't call it a competitor) Cadillac ELR with its Model S. Lutz did clarify that the fringe status will only last until Tesla comes out with a mass-market electric vehicle that has a range of 200 to 300 miles. Lutz was on CNBC talking about the TSLA stock's recent performance, and he pointed out that even Tesla CEO Elon Musk says that the California automaker's stock is overvalued these days. Despite its prevalence around these parts, Tesla is not yet a household brand. But the company is working hard to get a cheaper, long-range EV to market in the not-too-distant future, so this fringe thing may not last much longer than that show Fringe did.

Weekly Recap: BMW rolls out ambitious plug-in hybrid electric plan

Sat, Dec 6 2014

"We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important." – Julian Arguelles Let there be no doubt, BMW is serious about electric vehicles. The German automaker said this week it will make plug-in hybrid versions of all of its core models, an aggressive move that demonstrates its commitment to electric propulsion systems. BMW did not specify which vehicles will get the plug-in systems or provide a timeline for when they will arrive. But the announcement is clearly more than blustering, and the company revealed a 3 Series plug-in prototype this week at an event in France. BMW said the 3 Series uses a version of its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine (240 horsepower, 300 pound feet of torque) with an electric motor sandwiched between the engine and transmission in place of the torque converter. It has an all-electric range of 22 miles. A plug-in X5 with the same powertrain was also displayed alongside the 3 Series, though the X5 has been on the auto-show circuit for more than a year, including a recent stop in Los Angeles. Those two vehicles use "eDrive," and BMW's plans represent the first widespread transfer of its technology from development of the i3 and i8 models to more mainstream products. BMW said it's developing electric powertrains so they can be deployed rapidly across its range, and they are flexible enough to be used with fuel cells in future products. Enticingly, BMW is also working on a "Power eDrive" system, which debuted in a 5 Series GT concept at the event in France. This setup has two electric motors powered by a 20-kilowatt-hour battery pack, and when teamed with a four-cylinder turbo, pump out about 670 hp. Reinforcing BMW's commitment, the company will add more than 200 jobs at its factory in Dingolfing, Germany, to support electric-vehicle development. The moves come as BMW and other automakers diversify their portfolios while fuel economy and emissions regulations are getting tighter around the world. The United States has set a 54.5-mpg CAFE requirement for the 2025 model year. BMW said the electric vehicles were developed with an eye toward the US market, its government policies and its wide-ranging commuting styles. "We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important," spokesman Julian Arguelles said. Ben Scott, a senior analyst in London with automotive research firm IHS, said BMW's moves are expensive – but necessary – to keep pace with the market.

Can A Fleet Queen Become a Fullsize King?
On paper, the Chevrolet Impala is a pretty strong seller, posting annual sales that have hovered right around 170,000 units for the last two years, but it only takes one trip to practically any rental car agency to discover where the majority of those sales have come from. In fact, General Motors told Autoblog that a full 70 percent of Impala sales last year went to fleet companies for things like rental cars and government vehicles. Logic tells us that this is neither good for resale values nor name equity, so Chevrolet is getting ready to roll out an all-new Impala with improved comfort, styling and technology, hoping to turn the tables on its retail-to-fleet ratio.
Chevrolet's sedans have come on quite strong in the last few months with the introduction of the Cruze diesel and the SS sedan, but while these will likely be low-volume sellers, there's more pressure for the new Impala to perform well as GM looks to slash fleet sales and compete with the wide variety of full-size sub-luxury sedans. Riding on a platform shared with the Buick LaCrosse and Cadillac XTS, the 2014 Impala will compete against the Hyundai Azera, Ford Taurus and Toyota Avalon on the more traditional side, while also looking to take a bite out of somewhat sportier models like the Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger twins and the Nissan Maxima. We headed to sunny San Diego to see if this totally new Impala can stand on its own without the assistance of fleet companies and rental agencies. [w/video
