This auction is for a 1966 Impala Sport Coupe Pro Touring project. I bought this car from the origional owner in illinois. It still had the emblem on the trunk from the Chevy dealer in Auroroa where Mildred bought it. I have put as much blood, sweat, and cash into this thing as i am going to put. I have the clear title, and a laundry list of things that have been done, it just needs to be finished. So here is where my $30,000 i have into this thing went:
16K is body work done - New Quarters, New Tunk Pan, New Wheel Wells, New Rear inner and Outer Wells, Origional Fenders Rust Free, Origional Biscayne Hood Rust Free (didn't want the chrome spear), All Side Trim Holes FIlled, Mounted l76 LS2, Installed C4 Corvette independant rear suspension with the bulletproof Dana 44 out of a low mileage manual Car. Floors and clean and perfect. This thing has benn prepped for paint, so minimal cost to you at the paint booth. Shaved firewall and dash pad holes filled and smothed. Ready to paint!
Drivetrain - L76 LS2 and 6L80E 6 speed automatic transmission from a 2009 G8 GT. This car was 1 year old with 9K miles on it when i bought the package. I bought it from ebay and had it crated to my house June of 2010. The only thing i added to the engine is a low profile oil pan from Holley so the engine sits lower and you can add on engine covers, or supercharger or whatever you want. Includes MAF and ECM and electronic gas pedal also partial drive shaft. Corvette Rear Suspension from the manual C4 corvette so it has the Dana 44. Full independant rear from a low mileage car. I am including the origional rear end just in case. You can't find these Dana 44 rear ends any less than 2K... I have new Bilstien Shocks in the box and Doug Rippie springs. Rear end is setup to handle some 325/25 R 20's had planned. KORE3 designed a Big Brake package for this car specifically.
Suspension - It has a full global west coil over front suspension with Sway bars. All it will need is to be finished along with the frame, just add powdercoat and be done!
Included also are origional trim, All Glass, it had a vinyl top and the trim holes are filled but trim is included, interior components, most interior is gone as it was to be custom built by Upholstery Unlimitied in Iowa. Core Support is origional and rust free, wheel wells are aftermarket and brand new, Origional rust free hood hinges. I'm pretty sure every nut and bolt is seperated and in jars labeld for reassembly.
The LS engine swap is the most popular swap because this thing has over 400h and you can get 20+ miles to the gallon. THere are tons of parts available for this car from any catalog, believe me, you will find everything! I have way too many origional things to list here that go with it. Took it in the shorts on that too so my loss is your gain. I can part this out for more than my serserve price but i don't have the time. I will try to post more pictures but the car is stored and this is all i have for now. The Reserve is low!!!!!!!! I require a $500 deposite within two days of auction end, done through paypal. Payment must be made through paypal or cash in person. No nickel and diming, if you can't afford it, don't bid and waste my time. Please NO bidders with a zero feedback rating unless you email me. I will remove your bid otherwise. Thank you and Happy Bidding!
I will work with your shipping carrier but sorry, i will not setup any form of shipping, this is on you! I wil ship internation if requested....

GMC Hummer EV SUV first drive, RIP Camaro, Ferrari Roma Spider | Autoblog Podcast # 773
Fri, Mar 24 2023In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by News Editor Joel Stocksdale. They start off with one of the week's biggest official news items — the impending death of the sixth-gen Chevrolet Camaro. On the subject of powerful American cars, they pivot to a teaser from Stellantis execs that there are big things ahead for its Dodge Charger SRT Daytona Banshee concept. From there, they look at Ferrari's new topless Roma and then get into Ford's multi-billion-dollar electric vehicle pivot. Speaking of expensive EVs, Joel just got back from driving the new GMC Hummer SUV. He also had the new F-150 Lightning Pro in his driveway, and that's followed by Greg's update on Autoblog's long-term Toyota Sienna. Autoblog Podcast # 773 Get The Podcast Apple Podcasts – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast in iTunes Spotify – Subscribe to the Autoblog Podcast on Spotify RSS – Add the Autoblog Podcast feed to your RSS aggregator MP3 – Download the MP3 directly Rundown News Chevrolet Camaro production will officially end after 2024 model year Dodge CEO teases more to come from Charger SRT Daytona Banshee Ferrari Roma Spider returns a front-engined soft top to the lineup Ford Model e losing billions as it says EV unit should be seen as startup What we're driving Ford F-150 Lightning Pro 2024 GMC Hummer EV SUV 2023 Toyota Sienna Platinum AWD Feedback Email – Podcast@Autoblog.com Review the show on Apple Podcasts Autoblog is now live on your smart speakers and voice assistants with the audio Autoblog Daily Digest.

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]
Tue, 05 Feb 2013Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.
Chevrolet Malibu gets across-the-board price cuts, hopes to dig out of slump
Mon, 11 Feb 2013To say that things aren't going well for the newly redesigned 2013 Chevrolet Malibu is a pretty sizable understatement. Reports have been swirling about the Malibu getting an emergency design refresh, less than a year after its introduction, as well as having its production at the Fairfax Assembly Plant halted twice already this year for excessive inventory. Now, Motor Trend is reporting that the midsize sedan will be receiving price drops across the board ranging from $300 on a number of models up to $770 on the 1LT trim; offsetting some of MSRP drop, though, the destination charge has increased from $760 to $810.
Without destination, the entry-level Malibu LS now starts at $21,995, which is still about $300 more than a Honda Accord and about $300 less than the segment's top-selling Toyota Camry. This new pricing also drops the price of the Eco, 2LT and 3LT trims by $300. The LTZ trim has dropped by $415, meaning that the Malibu's top dog now starts at just under $30,000, excluding destination.
Here are the new starting prices for all eight of the Malibu trim levels compared to the previous prices for the 2013 model year (including destination):
