1969 Chevrolet Impala 327ci, 350 Turbo, Candy Brandy Wine Paint, New Chrome Look on 2040-cars
Union City, California, United States
1969 Chevrolet Impala 327ci, 350 turbo, Candy brandy wine paint, Rally rims, and stereo system. This Impala runs perfect. Rebuilt about 10,000 miles ago. It has Edelbrock carb, Edelbrock performer intake, Headers, Bored .30 over, Mild cam, Dual exhaust, and Cherrybomb mufflers. Sounds very nice with a almost unnoticeable hop from the cam. Gets great gas mileage for what it is. 18-20 mpg. Cruises down the freeway as smooth as my Lincoln Towncar. Has A/C but not hooked up. Absolutely no disappointments in the engine compartment. The interior is very nice for a driver. Impala logo stitching in all four headrests. Headliner is perfect. Very clean, and neat. Dash is in great shape. For show, I would get a new dash pad, back speaker grill covers, a little bit of my own elbow gresse to fit and tuck the passenger rear panel (no rips or tears just needs a fixing), and a good detail. All gauges work. Added oil pressure (oil pressure sits pretty at idle), voltage meter, and water temperature. Truck, Floor, and inner fenders sheet metal is perfect with no rust or rot. I personally would change the steering wheel. The exterior paint is in driver condition. Not show, not horrible. Car gets a little more attention than I like. The body is completely straight, I mean laser straight. Except one ding on the passenger door that is unnoticeable without a second look. About the size of a dime. There's a few bubbles in the paint if you stand up close you can see them in the corners. Color matched rally rims with chrome beauty rings. Lowered all around. Sits nice, and low. Chrome was redone shines better than new. Fill the gas tank under the rear licenses plate. I've done my best to describe the car. If I think of anything to add I will. If you have any questions Email, or call me. I will answer all questions. I will send a video of the car running to interested party's. The car is for sale locally. I could end the auction at anytime. A lot of people want the car but, haven't showed me the cash. CHARLES 1-510-938-9001 (8:00am to 10:00pm Pacific time) On Apr-08-14 at 19:30:44 PDT, seller added the following information: I keep getting text messages that go no where. Please do not text me. I will answer all questions by Email, or call. Here's the answer to the questions I keep being asked. The paint is good for a driver car. If you are looking to show & shine the car I would paint it. The body is straight so a paint job should be really cheap. A family friend of ours told me he would paint it a solid color for me for $2200.oo. That's work, and paint included. He does exceptional work. I've added pictures of the headliner, bottom of car, trunk, firewall, and front of engine looking down. This car is an older restoration which is SOLID. Again, the A/C is not connected. The original stereo is there but, not connected. There is a after market deck, tweets, 5.25 rears, and two 12 subs in the trunk. Sounds good in the cab, not going to turn heads a quarter mile down the street. The bottom of the car looks to be redone at some time, very clean. No sun visors, the rest of the interior is complete. The trunk has been carpeted, its huge and the floor is solid (like brand new solid). This car will not disappoint. |

Body shop manager stole over $500,000 worth of government trucks and parts
Fri, Jan 27 2017The US Department of Justice announced yesterday that the manager of a collision and restoration business in Virginia admitted he helped misappropriate and sell vehicles and parts from the State Department. Specifically, he sold 12 Chevrolet Suburbans, a Hummer, and $7,500 worth of tires and wheels. He pled guilty to charges to commit theft of government property and wire fraud. He will likely see 18 to 20 months in prison, a fine of $4,000 to $40,000, and has already agreed to pay restitution of $416,020 and asset forfeiture of the same amount. According to the Department of Justice, the body shop manager, James Ratcliffe, worked with the owner of the business and a State Department official, both unnamed, to obtain the property. It started with the wheels and tires, which were delivered and sold on two occasions, one in 2011 and another in 2012. The trucks came later, and were sold throughout 2011 and 2013. Ratcliffe and the shop owner kept most of the profits, and shared some of the leftovers with the government official. In addition to the vehicles that were sold, the government official also gave Ratcliffe a pair of Suburbans for his own personal use. The Department of Justice estimated the total value of the SUVs at $96,400. In total, the group misappropriated $512,420 worth of property. Related Video:
CNG-powered Chevy Sonic, Cruze headed your way
Fri, Nov 7 2014The value proposition for a Crazy Diamond Performance CNG ride was a little bit better before gas prices took a dive in the past month. Still, the Michigan-based company, which converts some of Chevrolet's compact vehicles to run on compressed natural gas, received approval late last month from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for two of its conversion models. And CNG is still pretty cheap. Crazy Diamond will start selling CNG versions of both the Chevrolet Cruze and Chevrolet Sonic. The startup will target fleet operators looking to cut both refueling costs and their carbon footprint. CNG can be found in much of the country in the low $2 range, while the average CO2 emissions are about 25 percent less than those of similar gas-powered vehicles. Average gas prices have tumbled by more than 30 cents a gallon in the last month, according to AAA, but they're still at close to $3. The two models will be able to go almost 300 miles on a full tank of CNG. Crazy Diamond said this summer that it would start selling converted a CNG-powered Cruze that delivers 130 horsepower for as low as $26,000. The turbocharged version goes for about $28,000. Take a look at Crazy Diamond Performance's celebratory press release below. Crazy Diamond Performance recieves EPA approval on its CNG Cruze and Sonic CDP receives EPA approval for its Mono-Fuel CNG Cruze and Sonic. Shelby Township, Michigan, October 30, 2014– Crazy Diamond Performance (CDP) receives EPA approval on its Mono-Fuel Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) Chevrolet Cruze and Chevrolet Sonic. Crazy Diamond Performance has received EPA approval on two new mono-fuel small passenger vehicles, the CNG Chevrolet Cruze and CNG Chevrolet Sonic. These new mono-fuel CNG platforms are the first of a series of small and fuel efficient vehicles coming from CDP, where cost, low emissions and reduced fuel consumption is important for not only fleet owners, but to the general public as well. "Soon to be available, are the 1.8L and 1.4L Cruze and Sonic CNG retrofit systems. These two vehicles represent a change in the status quo, with an OEM level integration of the fuel system and its components" states Michelle Fern, Executive Vice President CDP Inc. These vehicles provide flexibility for fleets looking to purchase a domestic small mono-fuel passenger sedan, but have not had an option until now. There are significant emissions benefits over its gasoline counterpart, with an average reduction in Carbon Dioxide (CO2) of 25%.
GM admits goal of 500,000 EVs by 2017 won't be met
Sat, May 9 2015After a little over four years of Chevy Volt sales, General Motors has a better handle on how many people it expects will buy cars with plugs. And it's less than the company thought back in 2012, when then-senior vice president of global product development, Mary Barra, said that GM expected to sell 500,000 "vehicles with electrification" by 2017. In a sustainability report released this week, GM says that half-million vehicle target will not be met but that it still, "believes the future is electric." In the report, GM says that, "For our commitment to electrification, our forecasted outlook currently projects us, along with the broader automotive industry, falling short of expectations for 2017. ... We continue to aspire to our stated goal." GM's electric lineup includes the Volt, the recently popular Spark EV, the slow-selling Cadillac ELR and upcoming Malibu Hybrid, CT6 plug-in hybrid and eAssist technology in the Buick LaCrosse and Regal. GM says it has 180,834 electrified vehicles on the road in the US today. In 2013, it had 153,034; 95,578 in 2012, and 39,843 in 2011. The company's next big plug-in vehicle will be the second-gen Chevy Volt, which is coming to market later this year, followed by the 200-mile Bolt EV coming, we think, in 2017. GM Employees on Mission to Transform Transportation Sustainability report outlines vehicle and manufacturing progress; sets new targets 2015-05-07 DETROIT – General Motors' just-released sustainability report chronicles efforts by the company's 216,000 employees to live out GM's newly defined purpose and values by earning customer loyalty, applying meaningful technology advances and improving the communities where it does business. These actions – led by CEO Mary Barra – further drive sustainability into the company's culture through building safer and smarter vehicles with less environmental impact. "GM will take a leading role in the auto industry's transformation as it undergoes an unprecedented period of change," said Bob Ferguson, senior vice president, GM Global Public Policy. "From GM's labs to its assembly lines, our people are driving the world to a better place through improved mobility." The company believes the future is electric, with billions of investment to support an all-in-house approach to the development and manufacturing of electrified vehicles. It now counts 180,834 on the road in the U.S – up from 153,034 in 2013.
