Rare 1972 Chevy Impala Convertible W/ Bb 402 on 2040-cars
Thornton, Texas, United States
Vehicle History: My dad bought this car back in '86 from i believe the original owner. It was a daily driver for him until about 10 years ago when he pulled it into my grandfathers barn and left it there. The upholstery has been redone and electronic ignition was put in. Other than that it's all original.
The condition of this car is rough. The body is straight. However, there is some rust along the rocker panels near the wheel wells in a few spots. The paint is still very good. The interior is gone. Rodents have set up shop in there so use your imagination. I tried to take a lot of pictures but I'm not a photographer. I tried to get close ups of the important areas and any rust I found. Not sure of the condition of the electrical but I'm gonna imagine it needs work. The mileage is over 100,000 but not sure exactly what it is. The odometer is not accurate. The tires need to be replaced and one wheel cover is missing. It does still have the high lift jack in the trunk though. It came with factory a/c but the compressor is in the trunk and probably needs to be replaced. The top needs to be replaced. The thing this car has going for it is it's rarity. Chevy made 6,456 convertible impalas that year and few of them came with the turbo-jet 402 with dual exhaust. The engine alone is worth some money. It came with electric locks and windows and front and rear bench seat. It's a big car with a big engine. The car is located in Thornton, Texas. It is way out in the country so try and figure out what shipping is going to cost before bidding. The buyer will be responsible for arranging and paying for shipping. I'll help with arrangements on my end. ****Please ask any questions you have before bidding. Car is being sold as is with no warranty.***** |

GM might outsource vans to AM General
Thu, Nov 26 2015General Motors will possibly boost production of the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon at the Wentzville Assembly Plant in Missouri by contracting out some commercial van manufacturing to AM General. Demand for the two midsize trucks continues to boom, and GM would like to take advantage of the strong market for them. The possible deal came to light in a letter to workers at the factory, according to Automotive News. "This potential partnership would free up production capacity and allow the organization to capitalize on our ability to build midsize trucks to further satisfy customer demand," a portion of the document allegedly said. AM General would reportedly only take over assembly of the cutaway versions of the Chevy Express and GMC Savana. Customers and critics have quickly embraced the latest Colorado and Canyon since their introduction. The Chevy just won back-to-back Motor Trend Truck of the Year awards. GM also had to add a third shift and extra workers in 2014 just to keep up with demand. The Wentzville plant even increased employment on the weekends earlier in 2015 to assemble an extra 2,000 of the trucks each month. While the two pickups boom, deliveries for the Chevy Express and GMC Savana are down 26.9 percent and 26.6 percent respectively through the first 10 months of the year. GM doesn't break out numbers for the cutaway versions, but they make up about a third of production, according to Automotive News. AM General built the Humvee for the US military and does some contract work with automakers. For example, the company's Indiana factory now produces the Mercedes-Benz R-Class for export to China. Here's hoping this potential deal will help both GM and AM General keep their factories humming. Related Video:
"Turbo" Chevrolet Camaro is a 700-HP fantasy car come to life [w/video]
Thu, 07 Feb 2013For a concept car built to promote an animated movie about a snail that wants to go racing, this thing ain't half bad. The outsized monster you see before you started life as a Chevrolet Camaro ZL1, and then went through a big-time Hollywood makeover before being positioned on the Chevrolet stand here in Chicago.
This 2013 "Turbo" Camaro Coupe is getting the promotion machine ratcheted up for a new DreamWorks tale by the name of, you guessed it, Turbo. Coming this summer, the movie will follow one snail's quest to become a race driver worthy of making the cut at the Indy 500. Like many DreamWorks vehicles before it, we're guessing that the petrolhead snail will star in a movie that adults (especially racing fans) with have no trouble watching with their kids. Check out the trailer below to see if you agree.
As for the car, we're told that it is "instrumental" in transforming Turbo from snail into racer. Helping the beastly pony car in this mighty task, is an ankle-cracking front splitter matched by a ungodly huge rear wing out back, a COPO hood and a supercharged (yes, supercharged) V8 engine making more than 700 horsepower. 24-inch wheels all the way around - 10-inches wide in front and 15-inches wide in back - should allow the "Turbo" Camaro to hook up with ease, as well.
2015 Chevrolet Colorado GearOn Edition is ready to do that outdoorsy thing
Fri, Feb 13 2015Bikes, skis, kayaks... the Chevrolet Colorado GearOn is ready to accommodate all of them, thanks to a trip to the Bowtie's accessories catalog.
