Up for auction is a really nice 1966 Chevrolet Impala Sport Coupe. It has Impala SS emblems on it but it is not an SS. She was originally built in Atlanta and sold new in South Carolina. I have the original owners manual and protect-o-plate to go along. There are many upgrades to this Impala beginning with the 454 Big Block engine. This Big Block is the low horsepower engine with an aluminum intake and a new Holley Carb. She has a new electronic ignition. There is also dual exhaust with nice sounding mufflers and tailpipes that come out at the correct factory location. There is a brand new Turbo 350 Transmission and torque converter and I have the receipt for that. There is a picture to show the proper transmission shift linkage on the column just as the factory had for this car. The engine and transmission work great and this car has lots of power. There are no fluid leaks of any kind. The brakes have been upgraded to drilled and slotted disc brakes on the front and drum brakes on the rear. A power brake booster was part of this conversion kit. She has 15 inch by 8 inch aftermarket ralley wheels to accommodate the disc brakes.
The body of this Impala is very solid and has been repainted sometime before I bought the car. I would call it a great 10 footer. All exterior chrome moldings have been removed from the side of the Impala giving her a unique look. The car was not originally bright red but this color really sets this Impala apart from other Impalas. She gets lot's of looks at the local cruise in. The trunk floor is very solid with only a spot of rust on the right side. A picture shows this. The floors are also very solid with only one spot on the passenger floor about the size of your fist. Again I've attempted to show with a picture. I have many pictures and can always provide more.
The interior is really great! It is all black. No marks or issues with the seats, door panels or headliner. The dash is pretty much original and has an AM-FM Radio. The mileage is 97,105 and believed to be original but I have no evidence to support that. The car runs and drives well and the mileage may go up between now and the end of this auction as I do drive this Impala. The car does require a few things, one she could use some new tires, two she needs a front end alignment since the installation of the new braking system and three she needs a new heater core which I will include with the sale. Now I don't have to sell this car. I have too many and this one is forced to sit outside. As everyone knows that is not the best thing for a classic car so I will see if anyone wants to continue what was started on this car. She does need a few things and I have her priced accordingly but I will not give her away. I have a clear North Carolina title in my name. I will help you or your agent load her up but this Impala will not leave my property before being paid in full. Please no scams with any kind of check. I will not accept them. Cash or bank transfers. If you have less than a +5 feedback please email me before bidding or I will reject your bid. No buy it now price and I will not end the auction early. Yes there is a reserve but I will keep that to myself. This Impala is also for sale locally and could be sold at anytime but once the reserve is met I will allow the auction to run it's course and sell to the highest bidder. This is an opportunity to get started in the collector hobby with a running driving car that shows great potential. This Impala is sold as-is with no warranties expressed or implied with no returns.

Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors
Mon, 04 Feb 2013As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize. Scroll down below for an official announcement from General Motors.
2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray convertible headed for Geneva debut
Mon, 28 Jan 2013While most of the world is still coming down from all the hype surrounding the debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray at the Detroit Auto Show earlier this month, we're already looking to the future. And according to Autoweek, the next chapter in the C7 story will unfold at the Geneva Motor Show in March. That's right, General Motors is reportedly using the Swiss stage as its venue to debut the Corvette Stingray convertible.
If this strikes you as odd, you aren't alone. After all, with a car that's such an American icon, we'd fully expect Chevrolet to unveil it here on our shores in either Chicago or New York. But according to Autoweek, GM is looking to boost export sales of its halo car, and since the C7 was engineered to compete with the world's best and brightest, showing it off in Geneva is somewhat of a smart move. What's more, those with sharp memories will recall that GM used the Geneva expo to debut the sixth-generation C6 Corvette convertible back in March 2004, so there's also a precedent.
Details surrounding the Corvette Stingray convertible are still slim, though we fully expect the 6.2-liter V8 and choice of either six-speed automatic or seven-speed manual transmissions to carry over unchanged. Prototypes spotted on the road showed the car fitted with a cloth convertible roof, as well.
