Beautiful white Impala SS clone. I have owned the car for a year and a half and had a blast with it. It turns heads everywhere it goes. I purchased it most of the way through a frame off restoration. My son and I finished the job, which included redoing the interior, the white paint and fixing several small issues that show up after a project the size of this one. We also added new rubber throughout the interior. There are none of the rattles and squeaks associated with a car of this age. The car was burgundy when we first acquired it and so some of the pictures will show the car being rebuilt and driven as burgundy. The car has been White for over a year. The car has a rebuilt 454 installed. I cannot tell you all of what was replaced by the master mechanic who did the job. I have bought the car to be a regular play toy, and it has been. But since its not stock, I have not made a production out of keeping records. The transmission is a 5 speed. The fifth gear is an electric overdrive. This allows us to cruise the highways without getting raped at every gas station we pass. The car has a relatively new (about 1 year old) DVD player stereo and a boom box in a box in the trunk. Tunes sound good. It has disk brakes on the front and a special lock set up so that you can easily power stand (or lock the front wheels) while spinning the back ones. It also has a bleach tank installed to make those tire create a very impressive cloud of smoke as the videos will testify to. Speaking of tires, they are all very fresh. The convertible top was replaced right before I acquired the car and it has been kept under shelter since the purchase. No leaks or tears. The hydraulic system for raising and lower the top has had several parts replaced (including the pump) and it works flawlessly. The front end has been aligned recently and the battery is a few months old now. I drive the car fairly regular and have taken it several hundred miles without any issues. Its longest trip so far was in excess of 500 miles when we picked it up. As would be expected with a car this old it has a few issues. None of them are serious and most could be repaired with a little effort. My complains deal with sun visors not staying in position and windows that have issues with the fresh rubber when rolling them up and down in the back. If the buyer is within a one easy day drive, I would be glad to deliver it (you have to work with my schedule though). We (my son and I) are selling this because he cannot afford the gas (he is 17 now) and I am looking for a new toy to play with. I would really like this to go to someone that will enjoy it as much as I have. Remember when looking at the pictures, the white exterior is recent the red exteriors are at least one to one and a half years old. Note the car is too old to carry a title in Alabama. I will be able to provide a bill of sale only. Also there is no way to verify the mileage on the speedometer. |

Chevy Sail 3 lands in China
Sun, Nov 23 2014Shanghai General Motors took 32 cars to this year's Guangzhou Motor Show, with its Chevrolet Sail 3 leading the way. After putting almost 1.4 million of them into Chinese hands, the third generation of the Bowtie's entry-level sedan wants to "take the nameplate and the segment to a new level." Its new architecture sporting a 1.4-inch longer wheelbase supports a growth spurt of two inches in length and 1.8 inches in width. The exterior also gets "eagle eye-shaped" headlights and "dual-c-element taillights." Under the hood will be either a 1.5-liter DVVT or a 1.3-liter VVT, each of them more powerful and more frugal than previous offerings. Both can be paired with a manual or an automatic transmission, and qualify for listing in China's National Energy-Saving and Eco-Friendly Vehicle Catalogue, as well as a 3,000 renminbi rebate ($490 US). You can read more about it in the press release below, and get more info on the Chevrolet Camaro RS Limited Edition, Corvette Stingray Coupe, Buick Regal GS and Excelle XT also introduced at the show. Chevrolet, Buick and Cadillac Take Center Stage at Guangzhou Auto Show - New Chevrolet Sail 3, Camaro RS Limited Edition and Corvette Stingray Coupe make China debut - Buick showcases customized Regal GS and Excelle XT - Shanghai GM announces new telematics strategy featured in upcoming Cadillac product GUANGZHOU, 2014-11-20 – Shanghai GM is displaying 32 vehicles from the Chevrolet, Buick and Cadillac brands at the 12th Guangzhou International Auto Show, which begins today and runs through November 29 in Guangzhou. Among the products that are making their China debut are the third-generation Chevrolet Sail 3, Chevrolet Camaro RS Limited Edition and Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Coupe. In addition, Buick is showcasing a customized Regal GS and Excelle XT, and Shanghai GM is announcing its new telematics strategy that will be featured in an upcoming Cadillac product next year. Chevrolet Sail 3 Entry-Level Family Car Since its introduction 15 years ago, the Sail has been a driving force in the entry-level family car segment. Nearly 1.4 million Sails have been sold across China. The third-generation Chevrolet Sail, named the Sail 3, will take the nameplate and the segment to a new level when it goes on sale nationwide by the end of this year. Built on Shanghai GM's new-generation small car architecture, the Sail 3 has adopted Chevrolet's new design language. It has a sculpted yet slim exterior with a youthful, dynamic feel.
Europeans ask Chevy to bring Volt back to Europe
Fri, Aug 14 2015A group of French fans is asking for a jolt of support from General Motors to get the 2016 Chevrolet Volt across the pond. The Association Amperistes et Amis des Vehicules Rechargeables is running a Change.org petition that currently has 383 signatures out of a goal of 500. While the attempt is admirable, it's probably going to take a lot more than several hundred people for the model to make a return to the continent after the poor showing of the Opel Ampera – first-gen Volt's European cousin. The group's major argument for bringing a version of the second-gen Volt to Europe is that consumers need "an intermediate choice between expensive or range-limited pure electric cars and plug-in hybrids with a miserable electric range." Furthermore, such a vehicle would prod the competition to produce similarly efficient electrified models. They also lavish praise on the abilities of the Ampera for its long EV driving range. The supporters aren't entirely kind to GM in the petition, though, and claim the company excluded the original car from marketing efforts there. The Ampera actually enjoyed a strong European launch with more orders than initially expected and briefly topped the best-sellers list among EVs there. It was even named 2012 European Car of the Year. Those halcyon days didn't last long, and by 2014 sales fell off to a trickle. The waning reception caused GM's decision not to introduce a version of the new 2016 Volt there or in Australia. Related Video:
