CONTACT JEFF AT 570 977 0741.  Up for sale and your consideration is a very rare equipped car. The ultimate factory sleeper ! What we have here for sale is a 1965 Chevy Impala 2-door hardtop bench seat car with a 340 horsepower 409 & 4-Speed & 4.11 rear. Extremely rare in this combination as early 1965 was the end of production for the legendary 409 engines.  They were only offered until February of 1965 and then the 396 big blocks replaced them.  So to find a 409 & 4-speed car today in this package is an extremely rare offering. Please take the time to look over all the photos here.  I have a total of 50 photos of the car that I will be happy to send to any prospective buyer upon request.  Just give me a call and I can send them out. I don't have a window sticker or a build sheet for the car, but I feel this is a true 409 4-Speed car based on physical inspection. It has dual steel lines coming from the gas tank to the engine that have obviously been there since 1965. The fuel line is 3/8". The original back up light switch was old and inoperative and was replaced with a new one. The bell housing, transmission, shifter and driveline all appear original. The original hold down ring for the shifter boot was found under the seat and used to hold down the new replacement shifter boot which is unique to a bench seat car. The numbers are as follows: The VIN # is 164375C111222 designating a 1965 Impala built in Southgate California. The last six numbers (production #s) are just plain interesting...111222 . The data plate shows a C code for Ermine White and a trim code of 811 for black vinyl interior. There is a # 70 after ACC on the data plate that I couldn't find a breakdown for. Engine code on engine flat boss is JB designating 1965 409-340HP manual trans engine. The original carburetor #7025123 was working poorly, so it was removed and replaced with a late model Edelbrock so the car would be driveable without problems with the fuel.  The original carburetor of course goes with the car and the original tag is still on the carburetor. The 4-Speed trans is # 3851325 which designates a 1964-1965 Muncie M20 unit with a 2.56 1st gear. Transmission also appears to have been in the car since 1965. The engine runs great and appears to have been rebuilt somewhere along the line with new freeze out plugs installed. Since I don't have any receipts for a rebuild I can only assume by the way it runs and it's appearance that is a rebuilt engine. It is freshly serviced as well with an engine oil and filter change, new spark plugs, new air filter, and new fuel filter. The rear differential is a 12-Bolt non-posi unit with 4.11 gears. I do have a posi rear with 3.23 gears that goes with the car at the buyers request. I also have the original floor mats to include with the car and there is a trunk mat included. The interior has been renewed with new upholstery, door panels, carpet, headliner, etc. The factory in dash tachometer works. A rare optional clock sits on top of the dash. The car is also equipped with a rare tilt wheel. The lights and wipers all work. The AM radio and heater blower motor do not work. Underside photos of the car are provided so nothing is left to the imagination. Although this is a California car, it was stored outside for some time while in California, and unfortunately had worn out window and trunk seals, causing some rust on the left side floor and trunk. The rear floor was patched from the inside. The trunk floor was professionally replaced along with the gas tank being replaced with a new unit. Please refer to the underside photo and in trunk photo. Looking beyond the left side floor rust one can see that the rest of the underside is all-solid 1965 metal including body mounts and floor supports which are notorious for rust. Window and trunk seals have been renewed. Front suspension and shock absorbers have been renewed. Dual exhaust has also been replaced with Flowmaster mufflers and pipes which have a fantastic sound ! All the glass is fine. The body is rust free and has a presentable appearance with a few small touch ups. This is not a show car but certainly does qualify as an extremely rare one ! Since this car was purchased pretty much as you see it with only minor upgrades, my description is based soley on a thorough physical inspection. If any prospective buyer has any questions on the integrity of this car, I welcome the opportunity to show this car in person by appointment only to answer any questions. Although this is not a show car, it would certainly be a hit at the local cruise or car show. It's what I call "show me another one" car.  I have a clean Pennsylvania title in hand ready for transfer to the new owner. The car has Antique status on the title and shows California as the prior title state. Mileage is listed as exempt on the title as many older cars are that do not have a sixth digit on the speedometer. The title will be processed properly by a licensed Pennsylvania Notary official into the new owners name. A complete bill of sale will also be provided to the new owner in their name. There will be no exceptions to this. Again looking to complete an honest sale here.

Please check my 100% positive feedback and buy with confidence.  After checking out all the photos and reading the entire description here feel free to ask any and all questions on the car.  I have accurately and honestly described the car to the best of my knowledge.  I am looking to complete an honest sale here.  This car is sold in AS-IS condition with no actual or implied warranty or guarantee. If any prospective buyer has any questions as to the condition of the car, again I welcome the opportunity to show the car in person by appointment only to answer any questions on the integrity of the car. The winning buyer using the buy it now option or the winning bidder at the end of the auction will be required to complete an Ebay required $300.00 non-refundable deposit committing themselves to the purchase.   The preferred method of payment is funds in hand and a local pickup of the car. If a buyer requests shipping it will be their financial responsibility.  I will happy to reasonably assist in the appointment set-up, pick-up and loading of the car. I will also be happy to recommend previously used shippers. My contact name and phone number is at the top and bottom of this ad to make it very easy for any prospective buyer to reach me with.  So lastly any questions on this 65 Impala please don't hesitate to CONTACT JEFF AT 570 977 0741.  Thanks and good luck.


On Jun-07-13 at 10:25:45 PDT, seller added the following information:

After receiving multiple requests I forgot to include the engine casting number. It is 3857656 which in the book states 1965 Passenger car 409. The flat boss on the front of the motor is stamped T1211JB  That corresponds to the Tonowanda NY assembly plant for engines and it was built on December 11th.  I also have registration and insurance cards for the car from California and a shipping manifest for the car when it was shipped from California to Pennsylvania on July 16, 2002 so it has spent only 10 years and 11 months in Pennsylvania.  Most of its life was spent in California.

Cadillac XT4 crossover to be built in Kansas City

Mon, Jan 8 2018

Cadillac's upcoming XT4, a crossover we've previously known as the XT3 in a long series of spy shots of heavily camouflaged mules, will be built at General Motors' assembly plant in Kansas City on the same platform as the Chevrolet Malibu, Bloomberg reports, citing people familiar with the plan. That will give Cadillac another entry in the red-hot luxury crossover segment and, GM hopes, help to reverse a sales slump in the U.S. It'll also breath life into the Kansas City plant that makes the slow-selling Malibu, where GM cut a third shift last year, by sharing the assembly line between the crossover and sedan and defraying costs for each vehicle. The XT4 was known most recently as the XT3, with styling cues based on the Escala concept sedan from 2016. It's slightly smaller than the XT5, Cadillac's top-selling vehicle, and will also augment the full-size Escalade in Cadillac's stable of SUVs when it makes its expected debut later this year. Cadillac last week reported its second-highest-ever sales mark with 356,467 vehicles, an increase of 15.5 percent over 2016. But that mark papers over an 8 percent sales decline in the U.S. to 156,440 vehicles. The luxury brand is on a hot streak in China, where sales jumped 50.8 percent last year to 175,489 units.Related Video: Image Credit: Brian Williams Plants/Manufacturing Cadillac Chevrolet GM Crossover sales cadillac xt5 cadillac xt4 cadillac xt3

NHTSA approves hybrid rearview mirror display in Cadillac CT6, Bolt EV

Tue, Feb 23 2016

The Chevy Bolt EV prototype doesn't just have a fancy new all-electric powertrain. Just outside the driver's line of sight is a newfangled rearview mirror, one that can turn into a screen that shows a moving image from the rear-facing camera. Speaking to NPR's Robert Siegel yesterday, Department of Transportation secretary Anthony Foxx said that NHTSA has now approved this type of mirror/screen for use in vehicles. According to a letter from NHTSA to General Motors, GM will likely use this Full Display Mirror first in the 2016 Cadillac CT6 before coming to the Bolt. In its letter to GM, NHTSA said that the Full Display Mirror will only qualify as a standard rearview mirror as long as there are normal side mirrors in place. In other words, don't expect to see cameras and screens replacing all the mirrors in a motor vehicle just yet. @AutoblogGreen @NPR - #NHTSA has OK'd GM rear-view system that can switch between mirror & camera views. pic.twitter.com/6CBeIit10v — Anthony Foxx (@SecretaryFoxx) February 22, 2016 The Full Display Mirror was developed by Gentex, which has long worked with GM. The FDM debuted in 2014 and some people hoped it would also make its way into the Tesla Model X. Gentex, which also makes auto-dimming mirrors, says that it has "set out to develop the technologies and core competencies necessary to manage this evolution of the rearview mirror." The Chevy Bolt EV will start at $37,500, before incentives. The 200-mile EV will go into production late this year for likely sale in early 2017. Related Video:

Chevy Corvette is latest car breached by hackers

Wed, Aug 12 2015

UPDATE: This story has been updated with comment from General Motors. In the latest car-hacking exploit in a summer full of them, researchers from the University of California-San Diego say they've found a way to manipulate braking in a 2013 Chevrolet Corvette. The vulnerabilities may not be limited to that model. Cyber-security researchers breached the car's security systems via a device they had plugged into the Corvette's OBD-II port, and through that connection, they sent messages that could turn windshield wipers on and off and tamper with the brakes as the car drove at low speeds. It's the latest in a series of car hacks that involve access to critical systems obtained via the OBD-II port, where drivers can plug in devices that provide anything from diagnostic information for mechanics to driving information for insurance companies. Last November, cyber-security engineers from Argus Cyber Security remotely controlled vehicle functions in a car that had a OBD-II dongle called a Zubie installed. In January, researchers from Digital Bond Labs found security holes in an information-tracking dongle popular with more than 2 million Progressive Insurance customers. Those came before prominent hacks unveiled in recent weeks, in which researchers remotely commandeered control of a Jeep Cherokee and, separately, showcased problems with GM's OnStar infotainment system. Regarding the dongles that plug into the OBD-II ports, Stefan Savage, a Cal-San Diego professor involved in the research, tells WIRED that, "we acquired some of these things, reverse-engineered them, and along the way, found that they had a whole bunch of security deficiencies." Savage and others unveiled the latest study at the Usenix security conference Tuesday. In a video of their exploit entitled "Fast and Vulnerable," they show how they sent SMS messages from a smartphone to the dongle plugged into the car's OBD-II port. From there, their messages accessed the CAN bus, a network on the car that connects individual electronic control units, which control dozens of vehicle functions. As they send the commands to brake the car, the driver of the Corvette notes "the pedal doesn't react to any pressure." General Motors issued a written response Wednesday, warning drivers to be careful with third-party devices they plug into their OBD-II ports.
