Up For Sale is a Solid 1965 Chevy Impala SS 327 300hp car. This car can be a driver or resto project and is wll worth saving.  This car was driven daily until a few years ago and now just gets driven occasionally.Tis car has good road and traffic manors such as does not overheat and idles well.  I have broken down the basic description of the categories below.

Drivetrain: 

    327 V-8 4 brl., Holley 650 double pumper,  Edelbrock aluminum Intake,  HEI Distributor mated to a MSD 6AIgnition,  Headers connected to true dual  exhaust and Flowmster mufflers.  The camshaft has been changed to a Crane .480/.280 that gives it a nice thumpy sound and the engine runs great with no smoke or oil usage.

  Turbo 350 automatic transmission that shifts well

   12 Bolt non Posi rear with unknown gear ratio

   4 Wheel non power drum brakes

   14X7 American Racing Torque Thrust wheels on Radial tires that have about 75% tread Left 

Exterior:

  As you can see in the pictures the car is very straight and solid although there are some rust issues that need to be addressed to restore the car.  The frame of the car is super solid and has no rust issues.  The rear quarters need to be replaced with the outer rear wheel housings.  I do have a passenger quarter skin that will go to the new owner of the car. The trunk floor was repaired several years ago and in my opinion to do the car right I would replace the trunk floor.  The interior floor is in good condition.  There are a few places on the lower door skins that need attention as well.  One positive thing about this car is the doors shut like butter, silky smooth and all the glass in the car is in good condition.  The front fenders are in great condition as well.  To my knowledge this car has been repainted once about twenty years ago the factory color.  There is rust in the rear header panel under the back panel that needs to be replaced although the inner structure of the car is solid.  The hood has rust holes and I would replace that as well along with the header panel.  The chrome on this car is in excellant condition and even though not installed in the pictures I have all emblems and moldings.  The front and rear bumper are laser straight and in good condition.  I have seen far worse cars restored and am trying to give an honest overview of this car.

Interior:

  This car came from the factory with white bucket seats and console.  It has the original seats, black carpet door panels, console and they show there age.  The interior is complete with the exeption of the clock and one other gauge in the console and the rear package tray.  I have installed an aftermarket am/fm/cd player mounted in the glove box that play through 6x9's in the rear deck for music. Also there is an Autometer Tach mounted to the steering column.  The interior chrome is in excellant condition and would just need a good polishing. 

 

  In summary this is a great piece of American history and would make anyone proud to drive or restore.  Lets face the facts there not making any more of these classics!.  Ive tried to give an honest description of the car and anyone can feel free to email me and ask questions.  I have a Clear Florida title and car will not be released until funds are recieved. It is the buyers responsibility to pay for and arange shipping although I can deliver to a terminal close by if need be.    Thanks and good luck bidding!

More Corvette Stingray Factoids: Vanishing panel gaps and 26-mpg LT1

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

During January's Detroit Auto Show, we managed a longer than expected wandering tag-team interview with C7 Corvette chief engineering exec Tadge Juechter (pictured above), and LT1 engine boss Jordan Lee (pictured below). They are, quite honestly, two of the very nicest bigshot lads to ever walk the engineering corridors of an American manufacturer. Both are enthralled by what they're doing for a day job. So are we.
We've followed the pre-sale anticipation for the Chevrolet C7 Corvette Stingray like an Oreck vacuum yanking every speck of dirt from a well-trampled carpet. Everything is reportable and contains a grain of further knowledge about this dramatically important and cheered-for car, as it continues to be pressured into representing all that is superior about the American dream. The Corvette wears one heavy cloak.
So, most of what was talked about has been expertly reported already right here on Autoblog. But, looking through our notes again, both Jeuchter and Lee added facts to the buzzing mix.

2016 Lamborghini Huracan at the Horse Thief Mile | AutoblogVR

Tue, Sep 13 2016

AutoblogVR returns to the Horse Thief Mile in the Mojave Desert to put the Lamborghini Huracan to the test. It's everything we want a modern supercar to be: Powerful, striking in appearance, and a riot to drive. But does it live up to Lamborghini's unique performance heritage? Senior Editor Greg Migliore reviews the Huracan on Horse Thief's unyielding curves and elevation changes to find out. Meanwhile, Autoblog Editor-in-Chief Mike Austin reviews a different kind of performance car – the Chevy SS at the IndyCar circuit on Detroit's Belle Isle. He's ably assisted by ace driver Simon Pagenaud. You must watch his hot lap! The SS is old-school V8 American muscle wrapped in Australian design and engineering. This AutoblogVR segment also launches on the app Sept. 13, and the teaser follows the Huracan preview above. Each week, new episodes will launch on the AutoblogVR App. We'll preview them here on Autoblog, but for the full immersive experience, head over to the app, which you can download for free from the App store and Google Play. Be sure to try it with a cardboard viewer, too!

Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it

Wed, 06 Nov 2013

We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.
