This is an all original, unrestored, low mileage 1969 Chevrolet Impala. Paint, interior, drivetrain, etc are all original and have never been touched. This is a true survivor car that is just like they came out of the dealer in 1969. This car drives great and represents the ride of the late 60s and early 70s. It feels like you are gliding down the road, no wind noise, no squeaks, no rattles. It is a different feel than you get from modern cars that have a typically harsh ride. It really puts you back in time. The odometer show 15232 miles. The speedometer works but the odometer does not advance. With that, I don't know what the exact mileage of this car is. Based on the lack of visible wear on the carpet scuff pad under the brake pedal, the lack of wear on the brake and gas pedal, the cleanliness and lack of buildup inside of the engine, and the lack of any wear within the carburetor, my best guess is that this vehicle has no more than 35,000 original miles. The engine compartment is complete and is missing nothing. The bale on the brake master cylinder still has the plastic tag on it from the original assembly at the factory. All wiring is in perfect condition with all original connectors. I installed a rebuilt kit in the original carburetor. These Quadrajets always need bushings installed in the primary throttle shaft bores. This one was perfect with no play or evidence of any wear. The accelerator pump lever is also a common item to show wear. Again, there was no wear on this lever. The upper radiator hose is original with the original clamps. The lower hose had been changed at some point. New plugs and wires have also been installed. There is a picture through the oil fill hole that shows how clean the interior of the engine is. There is no oil buildup at all. The heads are the typical 441 castings. The engine is the 255 hp 350. The transmission is a Turbohydromatic 350. It upshifts and downshifts flawlessly. There is absolutely no slip. The transmission fluid looks and smells clean. The rear axle is a stock, non-positrac 12 bolt. I have not checked the codes but it is most likely a 3:08 ratio. Tires are newer with all season tread. The hold air just fine. The trunk in this car is flawless and speaks to the low mileage. There is no rust or damage in the trunk. The spare tire does not hold air. All original bumper jack pieces are there and in great shape except for the wing nut. It is missing. The interior of this car is just incredible. There is no visible wear on any part, The dash pad is not cracked or faded. The seats are in beautiful original condition. The front carpet is in great condition but has the appearance of some very minor fading if you look at it closely. The drivers side scuff pad shows no wear. The brake and gas pedals are also in great shape with no signs of wear. There was apparently an 8 track tape player installed under the dash, in the area of the ash tray. The mounting plate is still there. There are also what appears to be some aftermarket speakers installed on the hinge pillars between the front and rear doors. These are in great shape and are probably from the early 70s. All glass in the vehicle is original and in great shape, including the windshield. The stainless window mouldings are also in great shape. Door handles, emblems, and other chrome items are free of any pitting or corrosion. The front clip is in near perfect condition with the exception of the right lower fender. There is rust as shown in the pictures. The rear wheel wells also have a very small amount of rust as shown. The paint on this car is all original. It is only lightly oxidized and could be polished. I left it alone as I felt this car should be left untouched. This is a unique example of an all original car from another time. I have driven it around town and on the local rural roads and enjoyed it very much. You really get peoples attention with a car like this because you just don't see them around much anymore. Whoever gets this car will certainly enjoy it!

Body shop manager stole over $500,000 worth of government trucks and parts
Fri, Jan 27 2017The US Department of Justice announced yesterday that the manager of a collision and restoration business in Virginia admitted he helped misappropriate and sell vehicles and parts from the State Department. Specifically, he sold 12 Chevrolet Suburbans, a Hummer, and $7,500 worth of tires and wheels. He pled guilty to charges to commit theft of government property and wire fraud. He will likely see 18 to 20 months in prison, a fine of $4,000 to $40,000, and has already agreed to pay restitution of $416,020 and asset forfeiture of the same amount. According to the Department of Justice, the body shop manager, James Ratcliffe, worked with the owner of the business and a State Department official, both unnamed, to obtain the property. It started with the wheels and tires, which were delivered and sold on two occasions, one in 2011 and another in 2012. The trucks came later, and were sold throughout 2011 and 2013. Ratcliffe and the shop owner kept most of the profits, and shared some of the leftovers with the government official. In addition to the vehicles that were sold, the government official also gave Ratcliffe a pair of Suburbans for his own personal use. The Department of Justice estimated the total value of the SUVs at $96,400. In total, the group misappropriated $512,420 worth of property. Related Video:
2016 Chevy Volt arrives with 50-mile EV range, 41 mpg [w/ video]
Mon, Jan 12 2015Let's start with the numbers. The 2016 Chevy Volt will have an all-electric range of 50 miles from a new, 18.4-kWh lithium battery. It will get 41 miles per gallon (combined) once the battery runs dry and have 102 MPGe. Oh, and it has five seats, sort of. To compare, today's four-seat 2015 Volt has a 38-mile range from a 17.1-kWh battery in a powertrain that offers 37 mpg and 98 MPGe. So, across the board, there are notable improvements. Now that that's out of the way, let's talk story. General Motors will unveil the new Volt at the Detroit Auto Show later today, but it's been talking about how this new version – the first major plug-in hybrid vehicle to get a serious redo in the modern era – was crafted with reams and reams of data from first-gen Volt customers. At a preview event for journalists last week, GM executive chief engineer Pam Fletcher told Autoblog that these owners "gave us the recipe" to make the second-gen model. At the top of the request list was more range (check), more "fun-to-drive" behavior (check?) and a smoother and quieter experience (we'll assume a check here, given that the new 1.5-liter four-cylinder – the first North American application of this new engine family – should offer more power with less noise than the previous 1.4-liter, four-cylinder powerplant). Other customer-driven changes in the new Volt include a different place to store the charging cable (in the side of the trunk instead of under the load floor) and a new brake system with improved blended regenerative braking feel as well as driver-selectable regen levels. The requested 50-mile range comes from a new, lighter battery that has increased capacity from fewer cells (192 vs. 288) and a simplified control architecture. Along with the new battery, the electric drive unit is a two-motor deal that is up to 12 percent more efficient and 100 pounds lighter, while also being "tremendously smaller," notes Fletcher. It offers 294 pound-feet of torque and a maximum 149 horsepower of "motoring power" delivered to the wheels. GM says it has worked hard to reduced the amount of rare earth materials in these motors, and one of them doesn't use any at all. The new powertrain offers improved acceleration times, as well. The 2016 Volt can go from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 8.4 seconds, a seven-percent improvement, while the 0-30 mph time has been improved by 19 percent, down to 2.6 seconds. The new Volt is more conventional looking, but certainly not completely ordinary.
2015 Green Car Of The Year finalists announced, run alt-fuel gamut
Tue, Oct 21 2014The 2015 edition of the Green Car of the Year award is following right in the footsteps of previous years with a variety of alt-fuel powertrains making the just-announced finalists list. You've got your plug-in vehicle (the BMW i3), your compressed natural gas (the Chevy Impala Bi-Fuel), your high-efficiency diesel (the Audi A3 TDI), your 40+ mile-per-gallon gas engine (the Honda Fit) and, finally, a car that can do a little bit of everything (the VW Golf). The Golf is available – at least in some parts of the US – with three different powertrains: a 2.0-liter diesel, a gasoline engine and all-electric drive. The Impala can burn either natural gas or gasoline in its 3.6-liter engine. The A3 is an efficiency champ, able to get 73.5 mpg on some European tests. The i3 can be a pure electric vehicle or come with a short range extending engine. And the Fit brings 41 miles to the gallon in a practical, affordable package. The GCOY award is announced every year at the Los Angeles Auto Show by Green Car Journal. The committee doesn't just take the fuel-saving technology into account, but also a vehicle's "availability to the mass market." Last year, the Honda Accord Hybrid/Plug-In Hybrid won top honors, following up on wins from the Ford Fusion models (plug-in hybrid and hybrid) for 2013, the Honda Civic Natural Gas for 2012 and the Chevrolet Volt for 2011. FINALISTS ANNOUNCED FOR 2015 "GREEN CAR OF THE YEAR"" Green Car Journal to Reveal Winner of 10th Annual Award at LA Auto Show" Press & Trade Days, November 20 LOS ANGELES, CA (October 21, 2014) – Green Car Journal has announced its five finalists for the magazine's high-profile 2015 Green Car of the Year® program.

An increasing number of vehicle models are considered for the Green Car of the Year® program each year, a reflection of the auto industry's expanding efforts in offering new vehicles with higher efficiency and improved environmental impact. Green Car Journal has been honoring the most important "green" vehicles every year at the LA Auto Show, since its inaugural award announced at the show in 2005.
