1962 Chevrolet Impala 4-door Hardtop Original 327 Car Rust-free Survivor on 2040-cars
Helena, Montana, United States
OFFERED FOR SALE IS THIS 1962 CHEVROLET IMPALA 4 DOOR HARD TOP!
THIS CAR IS AN ABSOLUTE GREAT FIND! EVEN THOUGH THE MILEAGE IS PROBABLY IN EXCESS OF 200,000 MILES, IT'S VERY COMPLETE, UN-TAMPERED, AND RUST AND ROT FREE! IT RUNS AND DRIVES. ORIGINALLY PURCHASED IN CALIFORNIA, IT SPENT MOST OF IT'S LIFE IN BARSTOW AND HAD BEEN IN STORAGE IN MONTANA UNTIL JUST RECENTLY. THE CAR RUNS AND DRIVES, BUT THE CARB DOES NEED A KIT. I HAD NEW PLUGS, POINTS, CAP, ROTOR, AND FUEL PUMP INSTALLED. I FIGURED THE BUYER COULD TACKLE THE CARB. THE POWER BRAKES ARE VERY, VERY TOUCHY. THE MUFFLERS ON THE DUAL EXHAUST WERE ABSOLUTELY SHOT, SO I HAD TEST PIPES WELDED IN, BECAUSE IT WAS LESS EXPENSIVE THAN NEW MUFFLERS. THE CAR IS LOUD. ALL THE WINDOWS ROLL UP AND DOWN WITH EASE. THE WINDSHIELD HAS A WIPER TRACKS ON IT, BUT OTHER THAN THE PASSENGER'S WING WINDOW, THERE IS NO BROKEN SOFT RAY TINTED GLASS (THE WING WINDOW ONLY HAS A ROCK CHIP CRACK IN IT). THERE IS NO WASHER SYSTEM FOR THE WINDSHIELD. LOOK AT THE PICTURES OF THE FIREWALL AND THE WIPER CONTROL. THE INTERIOR IS DIRTY AND COULD USE A GOOD CLEANING. I DID A QUICK VACUUMING. THE MAJORITY OF THE WEAR IS ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE (CARPET AND VENT KICK). THE AM RADIO WORKS AND THE SPEAKER SOUNDS GOOD. THE DRIVER'S ARM REST IS WORE OUT. THE FRONT SEAT HAS BEEN RECOVERED AND THERE IS A SPRING POKING THROUGH ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE BACK (PICTURED). THE CAR DOES HAVE ALL FOUR ORIGINAL HUBCAPS, ORIGINAL SPARE TIRE, AND JACK/LUG WRENCH (IT IS MISSING THE J-BOLT THAT HOLDS THE JACK AND SPARE TIRE DOWN). THE A/C DOES NOT WORK, BUT I HAVE MOST OF THE PARTS (THE BRACKETS FOR MOUNTING THE COMPRESSOR TO THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD ARE MISSING). THE TIRES ARE AT AT LEAST 75% LIFE LEFT. THE GENERATOR HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO AN ALTERNATOR (THE UPPER ALTERNATOR BOLT EAR IS BROKEN, BUT A REPLACEMENT ALTERNATOR IS INEXPENSIVE). I HAD THE OIL CHANGED AND IT HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO A SPIN-ON FILTER. THE TITLE IS CLEAN, CLEAR, AND IN MY NAME. THE ENGINE CODE SUFFIX IS "SA" (PICTURED), WHICH ACCORDING TO THE MANUALS, DENOTES A 1962 327cid ENGINE WITH A POWERGLIDE AND AIR CONDITIONING. HERE IS THE BAD NEWS/GOOD NEWS: THE HEATER CORE LEAKS AND IT RUINED THE CARPET ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE. GOOD NEWS: IT CAN BE FIXED AND THE FLOOR BOARDS ARE SOLID. SOME MORON CUT THE AIR CONDITIONING HOSES, UN-BOLTED THE COMPRESSOR, AND LOST THE MOUNTING BRACKETS, SO IT DOES NOT WORK. GOOD NEWS: I HAVE THE COMPRESSOR AND THE CUT HOSES. THE TRUNK LOCK WAS DRILLED AND THE CYLINDER AND EXTENSION ARE GONE (PICTURED). GOOD NEWS: I'M SURE THEY ARE EASY TO FIND. ONE TAIL LIGHT BULB SOCKET IS BROKEN (PICTURED). GOOD NEWS: GM USED THESE SOCKETS ON MILLIONS OF CARS, SO THEY ARE PLENTIFUL IN THE SALVAGE YARDS. THE CLOCK DOESN'T WORK. GOOD NEWS: WE HAVE WATCHES AND CELLULAR PHONES WITH CLOCKS. THE LIGHTER IS MISSING (SOCKET IS STILL IN THE DASH). GOOD NEWS: SMOKING IS NOT GOOD FOR YOU, SO WITHOUT A LIGHTER YOU WON'T BE TEMPTED TO LIGHT UP. THE POWER STEERING LEAKS. GOOD NEWS: IT ISN'T A LOT AND CAN BE FIXED WITH A NEW HOSE. THE PASSENGER'S WING WINDOW HAS SMALL CRACK IN IT. GOOD NEWS: IT'S STILL INTACT. THE GLOVE BOX LINER IS SHOT. GOOD NEWS: IT'S FOLDED CARD STOCK AND MORE THAN LIKELY CAN BE REPRODUCED. THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR COURTESY DOME LIGHT SWITCH IS ERRATIC. GOOD NEWS: THE PASSENGER'S SIDE WORKS FINE. THE ENGINE RUNS REALLY, REALLY RICH. GOOD NEWS: A CARB REBUILD WOULD FIX THAT. I'M LEAVING THAT TO THE BUYER. THE PARKING BRAKE RELEASE HANDLE IS BROKE AND THE PEDAL PAD IS MISSING (PICTURED). GOOD NEWS: I'M PRETTY CERTAIN A SUITABLE REPLACEMENTS COULD BE FOUND. THE DRIVER'S SUN VISOR MOUNTING BRACKET IS BROKE (PICTURED). GOOD NEWS: IT CAN BE WELDED, GROUND, AND RE-PLATED. THERE IS A SMALL TEAR IN THE HEADLINER NEAR THE PASSENGER'S SIDE COURTESY LIGHT (PICTURED). GOOD NEWS: IT WILL GO AWAY WHEN THE BUYER INSTALLS THEIR OWN CUSTOM INTERIOR. THIS IS THE BEST NEWS ABOUT THE CAR: OTHER THAN A VERY SMALL AMOUNT OF SURFACE RUST, THE BODY, FRAME, AND FLOOR PANS ARE SOLID AND RUST FREE. THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR DOOR HAS SOME VERY MINOR DAMAGE (PICTURED). THERE IS KINK NEAR THE DRIVER'S HEADLIGHTS (PICTURED). THE USUAL PARKING LOT DINGS ARE PRESENT NOTHING DEEP OR SEVERELY CREASED (THE WORST IN THE DRIVER'S REAR QUARTER. PICTURED). THE DOORS, DECK LID, AND HOOD FIT GOOD AND OPERATE WITH EASE AND NO BINDING. ALL THE DOORS CLOSE WITH A RESOUNDING "CA-CHUNK" THE BUMPER LICENSE PLATE PANELS HAVE SOME MINOR "RIPPLING" (PICTURED), THE GRILLE IS REASONABLY STRAIGHT, BUT IT COULD USE SOME MINOR TWEAKING (PICTURED). THE SEATING SURFACES SHOW WEAR, BUT ARE NOT TORN (EXCEPTION: SPRING POKING THROUGH THE BACK. NOTED EARLIER AND PICTURED). THE HEADLINER IS INTACT (ONE SMALL TEAR NOTED EARLIER AND PICTURED). THE CARPET IS A LOSS, AS IT SOAKED UP COOLANT FROM THE LEAKING HEATER CORE AND JUST FLAT DIRTY FROM GROUND IN DIRT. I TRIED TO CLEAN IT, BUT ITS TIME FOR IT TO BE REPLACED, AS THE DRIVER'S SIDE IS THREADBARE. I FIND NO EVIDENCE THAT CAR WAS EVER IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT. I'VE DONE MY BEST TO PICTURE THE CAR, BUT I'M ONLY ALLOWED 24 PICTURES, SO I LINKED THIS LISTING TO A PORTFOLIO ON PHOTOBUCKET.

Star Wars Car Drives To The Dark Side Of Comic Con
Tue, Jul 22 2014When it comes to designing coveted collectible toys for sale at Comic-Con, the annual celebration of pop culture lifting off Thursday in San Diego, the sky's the limit for the designers at Mattel. Fittingly, the building where Mattel's dreamers conceive of their limited-edition playthings is just down the street from the Los Angeles International Airport. Inside the colorful design center - a Hot Wheels-themed shuttle bus transports employees from Mattel's parking garage - the designers have spent the past year working on 10 toys created especially for the Comic-Con crowd, including a replica of the Batmobile from the upcoming game "Batman: Arkham Knight" and a 9-inch-tall action figure of Superman killer Doomsday. "We don't have to worry about retail. We don't have to worry about margins," said Doug Wadleigh, Mattel's senior vice president of global brand marketing for boys and entertainment. "We don't have to worry about operational efficiencies. We only have to worry about creating the coolest toys for our fans. Period." It also offers some escape from Mattel's reality these days. Like other toy makers struggling in this digital, video-centric age, the company is trying to remain relevant in the retail world. Core brands like Barbie have seen less of a demand, with a 14 percent drop in sales in the first quarter of this year. Mattel had a net loss for the first three months ending March 31 that totaled $11.2 million. But things will at least seem rosier at Comic-Con, where eager buyers for the toys await (the only other place they will be sold is on the Mattel collector's site). Mattel's exclusives this year run between $20 and $85, but elite toys can fetch much more when they're put up for auction. The crown jewel for Wadleigh and his team this year is a Darth Vader die-cast car, the first official collaboration from Hot Wheels and the "Star Wars" franchise. The car - imagine if a Chevrolet Corvette C5 and the villainous Sith lord's helmet had a baby - comes in a sleek black box and encased in a replica of Vader's lightsaber, complete with a swooshing sound effect. "We've been trying to partner with Lucasfilm and Disney on this property for a long time," said Wadleigh. A full-size working replica of the Vadermobile will be on display at Mattel's booth at the massive San Diego Convention Center.
Buick Velite is a not-so-Volt-like plug-in hybrid concept for China
Mon, Nov 7 2016Is the Buick Velite a Volt by any other name? That's a question worth asking after General Motors said that the Buick Velite concept vehicle will make its global debut at the Guangzhou Auto Show later this month. GM says the car "will provide a template for upcoming models being launched under the Buick Blue new energy vehicle strategy." Whether that means the Velite is a variant of the second-generation of the Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in is open to interpretation. Some automotive publications, including Autoweek, are saying that's the case, but GM China doesn't mention the Volt in its press release, only saying that the car is a "high-performance" plug-in hybrid vehicle. As we know, GM doesn't use the "PHEV" descriptor for the Volt, which makes us thing the Velite's powertrain is more like the Cadillac CT6 PHEV. Either way, the concept was developed by the Pan Asia Technical Automotive Center (PATAC), which is a joint venture between GM and Shanghai-based SAIC. As far as the name, GM has been shopping the Velite moniker around for a while now. The automaker first used Buick Velite for the convertible concept vehicle it showed off at the 2004 New York Auto Show. More recently, GM in 2014 filed to use the name for the US variant of its Opel Cascada four-seat convertible model, which debuted in 2013. As for the second-generation version of the Volt, that model appears to be gaining favor in the US. Domestic sales of the Volt through October have surged 64 percent from a year earlier to more than 18,500 units. The new version boosted its all-electric range by 40 percent to 53 miles while increasing its power output by 20 percent.
