1966 Impala Convertible-I recently aquired this car from the original owner. It is a 1 owner car-It has a 283 and a powerglide trans. I will tell you what I know about the car. He told me it has had 1 repsray in the original red. The interior is all original. The motor is all original as is the trans and rear end. He told me that on the re-spray he had the original antenna hole filled on the front fender and is now cracked and coming through. He also had the original seams filled on the back header panel.And the trunk lid has some little specks of surface rust just starting to bubble a little-I took pics but they dont even show in the pics. It also has a small scratch that I took a pic of. But its not deep and has no rust-I took a pic again but it doesnt show. Other than that there is no bodywork on the body. He did however put a little patch of bondo in the trunk right below the boot. He should have left it alone. I noticed it and asked. He should have paid to have it done. It doesnt look too bad but should have left it alone. The rest of the trunk is excellent with no rust anywhere. I took a picture of the area. The frame and floors on this car are in excellent condition!!!! As are the trunk pan extensions,rockers doors quarters and fenders-they are excellent-The car could eventually use paint but looks great the way it is. He told me the odometer was correct at 20,000 miles-I find it hard to believe but thats what he told me. You be the judge.The bumpers are excellent and shine great and are original,the stainless is very good too. The interior is all original and very nice as are the floor boards and frame rails on the car-I couldnt believe how nice they are. The car is starting to fade a little in some places, it still shines very well. He moved the antenna to the back of the car as he had a CB in it during the 70's. The seats,door panels and carpet and dash are really very nice. He did put speakers in the doors back in the 70's. I also took a pic. It has an aftermarket radio and 8-track player mounted in the glovebox. The seats have no rips or tears or wear marks-They are very nice. and original. as is the carpet in the car-The convertible top is power and works fine. It has a nice glass back window. The only flaw in the top is that one of the seams is coming apart and needs to be stitched. I took a pic of this too-It could be fixed right at home. The rest of the top is very good as are the bows,and all the hardware to the top. It works perfect. The boot to the car is the original also and fits nicely. I just purchased brand new American Racing Torque Thrust "D" rims. Chrome---With brand new BFG tires. I put as big as I could without them hitting or rubbing.The car runs and drives perfect. No rattles or clunks and gooes down the road as straight as the day it left the showroom. I forgot the horn button clear plastic is cracked. It has full duel exhaust and is quiet. Not sure what mufflers it has but they are pretty quiet. The car does not smoke or use any oil. All gauges and lights work as they should. All the idiot lights on the dash also work. I have a NYS Transferable registration with the car. NYS does not have titles before 1973-I would not hesitate to drive this car anywhere-It really runs great and gets compliments everywhere it goes. Its a great car for cruise ins and local shows or just a night out. I have been driving it on a regular basis for the past 3 weeks. Its hard to find a nice straight car like this. The body is so straight and the frame and floors are so nice on this car-Please e-mail me with any questions you may have. As usual it is being offered at No reserve. I try and sell all of my cars no reserve! I have 100% positive feedback for a reason. And I sell quite a few cars on here. Check my feedback-I try to be as honest as I can-Please ask any questions and if you want to see certain pictures feel free to ask and I will gladly take them. Or feel free to come and see the car. It is located in my garage in Elmira New York 14905--

Next Chevy Volt will be 2016 model and ride on new chassis
Fri, Mar 7 2014What do we know about the 2016 Chevy Volt? Well, for now, all we can do is try to put the puzzle together without the box. Thankfully, a new batch of pieces has arrived from a new report in Edmunds, which says that the 2016 model year will introduce the second generation of a car that hasn't been dramatically updated since it went on sale in 2010. The new Volt is getting an "evolutionary styling change" and will ride on a new front-drive platform that has been developed by General Motors. GM's Kevin Kelly told AutoblogGreen that he has "no comment on future products," but he did acknowledge that Chevrolet is working on a second-generation Volt, "but I can't say anything about timing." Everybody already knew that a next-gen Volt is coming, so that's not a surprise. What we don't know is any real concrete information on the car itself. The few tidbits of information we do have help define the outlines of the next version of Chevy's halo car, but they're not confirmed yet. For the record, they range from the eye-raising (a $10,000 price drop) to the logical (20 percent more electric range). We can't see the whole picture yet, but the pieces do point to the 2016 Volt, which would be released next year sometime, being a much bigger deal than the last update, when the Volt's range was increased by three electric miles thanks to a battery capacity increase of 16 kWh to 16.5.
Amelia Island 2013: Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray from concepts to split windows
Wed, 13 Mar 2013While this year marks 60 years of the Chevrolet Corvette, the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance focused on one of the coupe's most sought after models, the 1963 Sting Ray. General Motors design boss Ed Welburn was on hand to show off the all-new C7 Corvette, but even the hard-edged styling of the 2014 Stingray couldn't take away from the beautiful 1963 models sitting out on the field.
In addition to the original Sting Ray and the 1959 Sting Ray Concept, some of the other classic 'Vettes included "Big Tank" racecars, an interesting cutaway coupe, a right-hand-drive Z06 and the attention-grabbing 1963 Corvette Rondine by Pininfarina. Another impressive Corvette was the 1964 Corvette XP-819 rear-engine prototype. Owner Mike Yager had the car finished as a driving chassis for this year's show, but promises the car will be back to its original glory in time for next year's event.
Top Gear names BMW i8 Car of the Year, Corvette, Ferrari, Mercedes also win big
Fri, Dec 5 2014The lads at Top Gear have released their listing of the finest cars of the past year, handing the ultimate honor to BMW's revolutionary i8 plug-in-hybrid supercar. "The i8 is a milestone in the annals of automotive history and a glorious statement for an exciting and positive future. The i8 delivers - and then some," the British mag wrote. The i8, though, was far from the only hybridized car to take victories. James May and Richard Hammond both highlighted hybrids as their personal cars of the year, with May saluting the Ferrari LaFerrari and the Hamster, unsurprisingly, heaping praise on the Porsche 918 Spyder. Jeremy Clarkson, meanwhile, opted to shock many by selecting not only an American car as his best of 2014, but giving the honor to of all things, a Corvette. Clarkson wasn't the only person to honor the USA's iconic sports car, with the new, 650-horsepower Z06 variant being named TG's Muscle Car of the Year. Other big winners include Mercedes-Benz, which TG honored for S-Class Coupe (Luxury Car of the Year), the new AMG GT (Sports Car of the Year) and the not-for-US C-Class Estate (Family Car of the Year). The 458 Italia Speciale A snagged a second win for Ferrari. The best of the rest include the Citroen C4 Cactus, Renault Twingo, Volkswagen Golf R, Lamborghini Huracan and Audi TT. Take a look below for the celebratory press blast from BMW. The BMW i8 wins Top Gear Car of the Year The BMW i8 has been named as Top Gear magazine's global Car of the Year 2014. The plug-in hybrid performance vehicle beat off some stiff competition from a host of other premium and luxury manufacturers to win the overall award. The editorial team of Top Gear commended the BMW i8 for its breadth of abilities. Its 1.5-litre three-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine combined with an electric motor gives searing acceleration and driver enjoyment but all wrapped in a package that takes BMW's EfficientDynamics philosophy to the extreme courtesy of CO2 emissions less than 49g/km and a 135mpg combined cycle figure. Charlie Turner, Editor in Chief at Top Gear magazine, said: "The BMW is a milestone in the annals of automotive history and a glorious statement for an exciting and positive future. The i8 delivers – and then some. It's the kind of car we should celebrate, a beautiful vision of the future, delivered now.
