This is a RARE 1968 Chevrolet Impala 327 Custom Coupe 2 door formal top with a Turbo-Fire 327 5.3L V8 275 horsepower Engine with only 87,324 ORIGINAL miles and matching numbers! Needs a new Carbuerator and it will be road ready. It could be an everyday driver as well as your weekend project. This baby has never been in an accident and it has a free and clear title. This car is almost COMPLETELY ORIGINAL! It has all ORIGINAL red and black leather seats in near mint condition. (The driver's seat needs a seam repair, otherwise, they are perfect!) The ORIGINAL dash face is in perfect condition including the original functioning radio and steering wheel. It also comes with the ORIGINAL hubcaps in brand new condition, worth $1,000 by themselves! It even has the ORIGINAL paint. 

I have just replaced the original tires since they were past their prime. I have also recently replaced the windshield, battery, fuel pump, and alternator, along with all the fluids including the oil and filter.

I had it running in August 2012, but it needs some TLC that I just do not have the time for. The A/C compressor needs to be replaced since it blows air, just not cold air. It could also use a new set of speakers, a headliner, and new leather for the soft top on the outside. The original paint is faded a little and the exterior has a few rust spots, namely one on the passenger's rear side where the roof meets the body. The floorboard was rusted in some spots, but has just been redone with sheet metal and rust remover. The dash face is perfect while the top has some heat cracks. The potential is there it just needs someone with a little more time than I have right now to bring this car back to its original glory.
This is a once in a lifetime car! Please contact me with any questions you may have.

2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray order guide hits the web

Mon, 15 Apr 2013

The official debut of the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is only part of the excitement for fans of Chevy's virtuoso sportscar. Although we got to see the car and some of its preliminary specs in Detroit and Geneva, there is still no word on pricing and some of the juicier data points we've been waiting for - such as confirmed power output, EPA estimated mileage figures and performance numbers. Until then, CorvetteBlogger has gotten its hands on the order guide for the coupe version of the car - in both base and Z51 iterations - revealing tidbits like standard and optional features and available color combinations.
Some other new details made it onto the order guide, such as our first interior specs for the coupe including slightly less hip room and headroom, more shoulder room and the same amount of legroom. To see the full order guide, head on over to CorvetteBlogger. From what we can gather, it sounds like more information will be revealed on April 25 during a party at the Corvette Museum, and for those sun worshipers patiently waiting for a convertible, it would appear you've got another model year to wait through.

GM recalling 135,000 SUVs with plastic jacks that can break

Sat, Jun 19 2021

General Motors is recalling 135,400 compact crossovers because their emergency jack can break under load. The problem occurs when the jack — which is plastic — isn't positioned correctly as detailed in the owner's manual. This can cause the jack to fracture. If the jack breaks and the vehicle collapses, there's a risk of injury or death, according to an NHTSA recall alert. The recall involves the 2020-22 Buick Encore GX and 2021-22 Chevrolet Trailblazer. A GM test driver discovered the problem when he broke a jack during a durability test on a Trailblazer. GM started investigating in April and found 21 claims of jack failures, including one reported injury. "This jack design may not be sufficiently robust against fractures if improperly or incorrectly positioned on the vehicle frame by the user," a NHTSA safety report said. GM will start notifying vehicle owners July 26. It will provide free replacement jacks that are made of metal.   Featured Gallery 2021 Buick Encore GX View 21 Photos Recalls Buick Chevrolet GM

Survey says $25k barrier is a problem for EVs

Sun, 01 Dec 2013



The majority of consumers are more or less priced out of the market.
Electric cars are gaining popularity with the general public, but are they still too expensive? According to a survey 1,084 consumers by Navigant Research, a consulting firm located in Boulder, CO, 71 percent want their next car to cost under $25,000, while 41 percent won't go a cent above $20K. Looks like people are even thriftier than we'd originally thought.
