I have for sale an incredibly original 1970 Impala Sport Coupe with 10,535 original miles. It is Champagne Gold with a medium gold cloth interior. It is equipped with a 350/250hp engine and a powerglide transmission. The car runs and drives like it is brand new. I have the original owners packet, Protecto-Plate, Owners Manual and buildsheet.
The exterior of this vehicle is in fantastic original condition with no rust. The original paint has excellent shine and zero checking. There is a small crease that is on the back edge of the passenger side door and passenger quarter panel forward of the wheel opening(Look at close up pic). There is also a brush touch up on the top of the passenger side quarter(also shown in pic). Other than these two spots the paint is in unbelieveable condition for 43 year old lacquer. The chrome and all brightwork is virtually flawless with the exception of a quarter sized ding on the rear bumper. All glass is damage free and looks new. The car also retains all four of its original T3 headlamps.
The interior of the car is the best original interior I have ever seen for a car of this age. It shows abolutely zero wear on the seats, steering wheel, door panels, carpet, headliner, and dashboard. Best of the best.
The engine compartment appears to be 100% original with the exception of the valve covers being repainted. It is in very good shape for its age, but does have some very light surface rust in multiple areas as you would expect. The complete drivetrain is original and untouched.
The undercarriage of this vehicle is excellent and rust free. I have crawled under every square inch of this car and could not find a single bit or rust through or rot. The floorboards, trunkpan, rockers, and rear dropdowns are beautiful. It retains all four of its original spiral shocks, but has had the rear springs replaced. The car does not leak a drop of anything.
I have described this car to the best of my ability and welcome any inspectors or experts to confirm what I have stated. I can also take additonal pics or video for any serious buyers. If you would like any more information, feel free to call me anytime at (636)459-0818. Thanks for your interest.
I talked to the son of the original owner less than a week ago. He told me that he owned the car until 2007. He also stated that the car never had any type of repair or repaint from new. He said that the car had 9400 miles in 2007 and that it was absolutely original mileage. I have all of his contact info which will be given to the next owner.

Chevy Sonic shreds like a skateboard
Tue, 19 Mar 2013Despite the fact that the 2013 Chevy Sonic is a fun, plucky little thing - especially in ever-so-slightly hotter RS guise - it is not, in fact, a skateboard. But don't tell that to rapper Theophilus London.
In General Motors' latest spot for the Chevrolet compact, London needs to make a quick run to the store for some milk. And even though, once again, the Sonic is not a skateboard, it ollies, pops and gets air because, you know, it's just so much fun to throw around.
If this video looks familiar to you, it's because this is the full ad that we first got a preview of in Chevy's longer, full-line spot, where the brand's "Find New Roads" tagline was introduced. Scroll down to see this dedicated Sonic spot, along with the older ad, and remember, the Sonic is still - still - not a skateboard.
Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
Which electric cars can charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Sun, Jul 9 2023The difference between Tesla charging and non-Tesla charging. Electrify America; Tesla Tesla's advantage has long been its charging technology and Supercharger network. Now, more and more automakers are switching to Tesla's charging tech. But there are a few things non-Tesla drivers need to know about charging at a Tesla station. A lot has hit the news cycle in recent months with regard to electric car drivers and where they can and can't plug in. The key factor in all of that? Whether automakers switched to Tesla's charging standard. More car companies are shifting to Tesla's charging tech in the hopes of boosting their customers' confidence in going electric. Here's what it boils down to: If you currently drive a Tesla, you can keep charging at Tesla charging locations, which use the company's North American Charging Standard (NACS), which has long served it well. The chargers are thinner, more lightweight and easier to wrangle than other brands. If you currently drive a non-Tesla EV, you have to charge at a non-Tesla charging station like that of Electrify America or EVgo — which use the Combined Charging System (CCS) — unless you stumble upon a Tesla charger already equipped with the Magic Dock adapter. For years, CCS tech dominated EVs from everyone but Tesla. Starting next year, if you drive a non-Tesla EV (from the automakers that have announced they'll make the switch), you'll be able to charge at all Supercharger locations with an adapter. And by 2025, EVs from some automakers won't even need an adaptor. Here's how to charge up, depending on which EV you have: Ford 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E. Tim Levin/Insider Ford was the earliest traditional automaker to team up with Tesla for its charging tech. Current Ford EV owners — those driving a Ford electric vehicle already fitted with a CCS port — will be able to use a Tesla-developed adapter to access Tesla Superchargers starting in the spring. That means that, if you own a Mustang Mach-E or Ford F-150 Lightning, you will need the adapter in order to use a Tesla station come 2024. But Ford will equip its future EVs with the NACS port starting in 2025 — eliminating the need for any adapter. Owners of new Ford EVs will be able to pull into a Supercharger station and juice up, no problem. General Motors Cadillac Lyriq. Cadillac GM will also allow its EV drivers to plug into Tesla stations.
