1969 Chevy Impala Wagon. Pretty clean vehicle for a 69. Car has a clear Georgia title. I bought this car with the intent of creating a show car but used it a cruiser. Everytime I take it out people ask if it is for sale so I figured I would put it up for sale and see what happens.

Exterior: Has a nice blue paint job that was done a few years ago but still looks really good.  Flames are pinstriped on but the stripes have slowely started flaking off because they were not cleared over. Also hood and tailgate had same issues with pinstripes. Would not be hard to redo the stripes I just do not know of a striper locally. The car has a little bit of rust as seen in pics. The tailgate shows a little, the rain gutters have a small amount as well around the windshield where it was puller out, the hood vents and the passenger rocker panell as well. Trim is all there except the bottom pieces below the doors. They didnt look good with the paint. Bumpers look ok but show pitting and I would rechrome them. Roof rack has been removed but the mounts are still in place. Wheels are 18" in front and 20" in back. Front tires show some wear on insides but rears are really good. Both nittos 555s front and back. Tailgate can swing open as a door or flip down as a tailgate

Interior: The inside looks to be all original and in really good shape. All wood looks good. passenger arm rest and dash have some cracking. Headliner is sagging a little. I added alot of dynomat insolation between the 2 back seats as well as the rear panels and tailgate to keep my stereo from rattling. The tailgate and floor of rear have bedliner to also keep noise down a little. The tailgate glass still works ith a dash switch as well as one mounted in rear seaing area.

Stereo: JVC cd player was placed in as well as kicker 5x7 in center dash and kenwood tweats in front pillars. I made a enclosure/panel for 2 enclosed kicker 6x9's that sit between 2 rear seats but comes right out. Not permanate just needed a little more audio. 6X9s were about $200 pr and the tweeters were about $120 pr. Will include the additionla 5X7 kicker still brand new since there was only a spot for one in the dash from facctory. 

Mechanically: Took pic before motor was cleaned to show how it normallly looks. does have a slow oil leak. Tried to video the exhaust to show a slight fog from it burning coolant but it is not that bad. It still cranks on first time when I crank it and drive it around once a week. I was going to replace head gaskets but I don't drive it enough to take the time or pay the money to do it. Motor is a small block 350. Tranny is also a 350 that works good but also has a small leak. Has a new Radiater, electric fan with a manual switch inside cab, new optima battery. Also has edlebrock carb and holley intake. Has a nice sounding cam and dual exhaust with i believe flowmaster mufflers. Original AC/heat car, but needs compresser and evaperater to complete. The heater needs hoses ran back to heater core.

Bad: horn does not work, fuel gauge does not work. could use front tires and maybe an alignment, and the head gaskets. I started to build a 427 to put back in this car but got to far in dollar wise.

If I was not military and moving every 2 years I would hold onto this, but I do not want to dish out 4000 for a trailer to drag it around the country

video leaks to attempt at showing the slight fumes from head gaskets. It is really hard to see but I am an honest man and want it to be clear that it runs fine but not always easy to see. I can have the head gaskets installed for an additional $600 if you chose.

eBay Find of the Day: Mario Andretti's personal 2009 Corvette ZR1

Wed, Jan 7 2015

With victory in the the Indianapolis 500, a Formula 1 World Championship, a win in the Daytona 500 and too many other motorsports accomplishments to list, Mario Andretti stands among not just the greatest American racing drivers of all time, but the greatest drivers, full stop. Apparently, the champ is also a fan of speed when not on the track, because now there's a chance to own what is said tobe his personal 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 with just 12,872 miles on the clock. The eBay Motors auction page clearly shows Mario Andretti standing with the car, but the rest of the ad is admittedly short on details. The vehicle history report lists only one previous owner – ostensibly Andretti. The exterior is a handsome Blade Silver Metallic accompanied by a Dark Titanium leather interior. However, the seller keeps additional information to a minimum as well with the description simply stating, "This 2009 Chevy Corvette ZR1 is owned by Mario Andretti and has been garage kept all its life. It is fully loaded with all option on this car." The future buyer will get a seriously great car along with some huge bragging rights at any party by touting its ownership history. We've reached out to the seller for more particulars and provenance, and will update this story if we hear back. In the meantime, the auction for this C6 ends on Thursday, January 8, and currently the reserve isn't met. The price sits at a hefty $68,100 as of this writing, with six bids registered.

GM tells owners not to use SUV wipers due to fire risk

Sun, Oct 11 2015

General Motors is recalling 31,685 examples of the 2016 Buick Enclave, Chevrolet Traverse, and GMC Acadia because a short circuit in the windshield wiper motor can potentially lead to a fire. Due to the danger, the company is asking owners not to use the wipers until the problem is fixed, according to The Detroit Free Press citing the Associated Press. A manufacturing defect in the wiper motor cover means that the electrical terminals can come into contact and cause a short. The part could "melt, smoke, or catch fire," according to a statement from GM. The company will get them fixed immediately, and dealers will replace the cover. If there's bad weather at the time the owner specifies to get the recall work completed, the automaker will come pick up the crossovers. Depending on parts availability, the automaker will supply a rental car for customers, as well. The issue was discovered at the factory. According to the company's statement, only 6,405 actually made it to customers, and they were notified immediately by overnight letter. The rest were in dealer stock. The affected crossovers carry build dates between August 18, 2015 and September 24, 2015. Of those, there are 29,295 in the US and 1,073 in Canada. GM Statement: General Motors has told the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it will recall approximately 29,295 2016 model year Chevrolet Traverse, Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia SUVs in the U.S. because the front windshield wiper motor may overheat when in use because of a manufacturing defect. In some cases, the front windshield wiper motor cover may melt, smoke or catch fire. The approximately 6,405 customers who have taken delivery of these vehicles were notified by overnight letter and are urged to contact a GM dealer as soon as possible to arrange a service appointment. These customers should not use the front windshield wipers until they have been repaired. If weather conditions prevent driving the vehicle without using the windshield wipers, GM will arrange to pick up the vehicle for servicing. If repair parts are unavailable, GM will provide a rental car at no cost until parts become available. The total population, including Canada, Mexico and exports, is approximately 31,685. About 25,280 of these vehicles are in dealer stock and will not be sold until repairs are made.

GM offering factory-backed extended warranty for Chevys, GMCs, Buicks and Cadillacs

Mon, Oct 15 2018

Cars are generally more reliable than ever before. When things do go wrong, every automaker offers some form of factory warranty (in most cases at least three years and 36,000 miles, though many extend even longer), providing peace of mind to new-car buyers that many faults will be fixed at no charge to the customer. Starting today, GM is offering a new optional plan that will extend the factory warranty on all new Chevy, GMC, Buick and Cadillac products. In the past, extended warranties have been offered as dealer add-ons, with all profits from these sales going to the dealership. GM's new program can be viewed as another nail in the the looming dealership-model coffin. According to Automotive News, some dealers aren't happy to see GM cut into their business like this, saying that it helps GM far more than it does dealers. GM says the new program will help keep customers in the GM family. Customers are also more likely to visit a GM service center rather than going to an independent repair shop. Currently, new Chevy and GMC vehicles come with three-year/36,000-mile warranties. Buicks and Cadillacs are covered for 4 years or 50,000 miles. The new program extends Chevy and GMC warranties to five years or 60,000 miles. Buick and Cadillac warranties extend to six years or 70,000 miles. GM, citing IHS Markit, says most owners keep new cars for about 6.8 years, so these warranties will cover most of the length of their ownership. The extended warranty will add between $1,000 and $2,000 to the price of a vehicle, and the additional cost can be rolled into the vehicle's purchase or lease price. Unlike many dealer extensions, the factory program covers the vehicle no matter who owns it. That should help increase the car's resale value if it's sold within the covered timeframe. GM says there's no deductible and no need to file a claim form when getting warranty repairs. Additionally, dealerships can continue to sell their own extended warranties or service contracts.
