1996 Chevrolet Impala Ss on 2040-cars
Pinckney, Michigan, United States
Up for auction is my 1996 impala ss. I will be as honest and descriptive as i can in the description.
The car is what I can best describe as a "driver quality" car, it is not a show car by any means. It does have scratches and a few dents I will describe. Interior- Interior is in wonderful shape, carpet, headliner have no rips or tears. Upholstry has one small tear in the drivers seat bottom and there is a 3in crack in the drivers door panel. Dash, console and shifter are great. Mechanically- The car runs and drives very straight and stops well. I cant detect any leaks from the motor trans or exhaust. It also shifts well. The only issue mechanically it that the ABS light is on in the dash. Fluids have been changed on a regular basis. Never driven in the Michigan winter with the salted roads. Paint and body- Like i said this is a drivers quality car, if your looking for a show car, this is not for you. The car has some scratches and dents, a little clear peeling above the drivers taillight and a dent in the left front fender that are the biggest that stand out. I do not have the center caps for the wheels and IT DOES NEED NEW TIRES BAD. The drivers side mirror shakes and im sure needs a new gear, I can hear the mirror motor run. With new tires I would feel comfortable driving the car across the country. I have a set of 24 inch Boss rims that are not included in the auction but could be added for an additional cost. AC and heat are great Now for the main issue- I do have a clear title for the car. The car has a salvage title in its history. When I got the car it had a clear title so I figured clear is clear. But that is my fault for not researching it before I purchased. I cant legally or morally try to sell this car off and hide this fact from anyone. I have not done a carfax on the vehicle personally but I was told that it was salvaged in Alabama from a flood area. I was explained that there is a diference from a "flood salvage'' and a "flood area salvage". I can see that the drivers quarter panel has been re painted. Like i said I do have a clear title that matches the vin. I will be extremely honest and hide nothing if you have any further questions. Any additional pictures I can either email or text them to you. 734-546-5504. With work I cant always get to my phone so please leave a message. I will be more than willing to work with a shipper |

Junkyard Gem: 1985 Chevrolet Sprint
Thu, May 21 2020For in the 1985 model year, General Motors began selling Chevrolet-badged Suzuki Cultus hatchbacks in California. Sales of the cheap three-cylinder econobox in the rest of North America followed soon after (with the Canadian version known as the Pontiac Firefly), and did pretty well considering the crash in gasoline prices during the middle 1980s. Starting in 1988, the facelifted Sprint became the Geo (and, later on, Chevrolet) Metro. Here's one of the very first Cultuses sold on our shores, found in a San Francisco Bay Area car graveyard. Amazingly, the primitive rear-wheel-drive Chevrolet Chevette remained available all the way through 1987, competing with the thriftier front-wheel-drive Sprint in the same showrooms. For 1988, Pontiac started selling a rebadged Daewoo LeMans, so the Sprint/Metro never lacked for intra-corporate competition. Inside, you'll find the same stuff most mid-1980s Japanese econoboxes got: tough cloth upholstery and long-wearing hard plastics. Suzuki quality in 1985 wasn't quite up to Honda or Toyota levels, but you weren't paying Honda or Toyota prices for the Sprint. MSRP on this car started at $4,949, or about $12,000 in 2020 dollars. The cheapest possible 1985 Chevette cost $5,340, while a new no-frills Ford Escort would set you back $5,620. Subaru, however, could have put you in a punitively unappointed base-model Leone hatchback for just 40 bucks more than the Sprint that year. I think I'd have sprung the extra for a $5,348 Toyota Tercel, a $5,195 Mazda GLC, or— best cheap-commuter deal of all that year— the $5,399 Honda Civic 1300 hatchback. I was 19 years old and driving a Competition Orange 1968 Mercury Cyclone that year, and I recall feeling pity for Chevy Sprint drivers, new-car smell or not. Still, these weren't bad cars for the price, though a Sprint with an automatic transmission was a real character-builder. Got three cylinders and uses 'em all! 48 horsepower from this hemi-headed SOHC 1-liter. The Turbo Sprint — yes, such a car existed — had a howling 70 horsepower. The hood-latch release is a rectangular button that resembles a badge. 1985 Chevy Sprint Commercial The highest-mileage, lowest-priced car you can buy. 1985 holden barina commercial The Australian-market version was the Holden Barina, and the TV ads featured the Road Runner. 1983 SUZUKI CULTUS Ad In its homeland, this car got screaming guitars and a drive through New York City for its TV commercials.
Next-gen Chevy Volt gets Corvette looks, adjustable regen levels
Sat, Dec 20 2014The hood may say "full speed ahead." The regenerative braking system says "slow down a bit." One person's automotive improvements is another's identity crisis, all in a day's work analyzing the new Chevrolet Volt. The next-generation version of General Motors' first extended-range plug in will include design touches taken from to the new Chevrolet Corvette, GM's iconic sports car. Hexagonal taillights and a "taut" hood will be part of the new package, Automotive News says, citing General Motors design chief Ed Wilbur. But does that mean the Volt is shedding any of its green-car cred? Not at all, if one considers that the Volt will also let the driver adjust the degree of regenerative braking using steering-wheel paddles to dial up and recapture as much energy as possible and engage in "one-pedal" driving or turn it down for easier coasting. Check out the 55-second video below featuring GM executives Mark Reuss and Andrew Farah trying out the Volt's new regenerative-braking system that was first used on the Cadillac ELR. GM will have more details for us when it unveils the 2016 Chevy Volt at the North American Auto Show in Detroit next month. The new version is said to have a larger battery, a longer all-electric driving range and more power, but Chevy's been fairly mum on those sorts of performance details so far.

Watch how Corvette Racing's new collision-avoidance radar system works
Fri, 22 Mar 2013When it comes to technology used in racecars, we generally expect it to trickle down to production cars, not the other way around. Well, Pratt & Miller has developed a new rear-facing radar that operates in a similar fashion to what we're used to in modern blind spot detection systems, only it is also capable of tracking cars as they approach and relaying vital information to the driver via a large display screen.
The innovative radar system debuted at last weekend's 12 Hours of Sebring for Corvette Racing, and this system makes perfect sense for endurance races like this since the cars sometimes have to drive through the night and in poor weather conditions.
The radar can detect cars even with poor visibility, and uses easy-to-distinguish symbols for the driver to identify.
