Up for auction is a really nice 1966 Chevrolet Impala Sport Coupe. It has Impala SS emblems on it but it is not an SS. She was originally built in Atlanta and sold new in South Carolina. I have the original owners manual and protect-o-plate to go along. There are many upgrades to this Impala beginning with the 454 Big Block engine. This Big Block is the low horsepower engine with an aluminum intake and a new Holley Carb. She has a new electronic ignition. There is also dual exhaust with nice sounding mufflers and tailpipes that come out at the correct factory location. There is a brand new Turbo 350 Transmission and torque converter and I have the receipt for that. There is a picture to show the proper transmission shift linkage on the column just as the factory had for this car. The engine and transmission work great and this car has lots of power. There are no fluid leaks of any kind. The brakes have been upgraded to drilled and slotted disc brakes on the front and drum brakes on the rear. A power brake booster was part of this conversion kit. She has 15 inch by 8 inch aftermarket ralley wheels to accommodate the disc brakes.
The body of this Impala is very solid and has been repainted sometime before I bought the car. I would call it a great 10 footer. All exterior chrome moldings have been removed from the side of the Impala giving her a unique look. The car was not originally bright red but this color really sets this Impala apart from other Impalas. She gets lot's of looks at the local cruise in. The trunk floor is very solid with only a spot of rust on the right side. A picture shows this. The floors are also very solid with only one spot on the passenger floor about the size of your fist. Again I've attempted to show with a picture. I have many pictures and can always provide more.
The interior is really great! It is all black. No marks or issues with the seats, door panels or headliner. The dash is pretty much original and has an AM-FM Radio. The mileage is 97,105 and believed to be original but I have no evidence to support that. The car runs and drives well and the mileage may go up between now and the end of this auction as I do drive this Impala. The car does require a few things, one she could use some new tires, two she needs a front end alignment since the installation of the new braking system and three she needs a new heater core which I will include with the sale. Now I don't have to sell this car. I have too many and this one is forced to sit outside. As everyone knows that is not the best thing for a classic car so I will see if anyone wants to continue what was started on this car. She does need a few things and I have her priced accordingly but I will not give her away. I have a clear North Carolina title in my name. I will help you or your agent load her up but this Impala will not leave my property before being paid in full. Please no scams with any kind of check. I will not accept them. Cash or bank transfers. If you have less than a +5 feedback please email me before bidding or I will reject your bid. No buy it now price and I will not end the auction early. Yes there is a reserve but I will keep that to myself. This Impala is also for sale locally and could be sold at anytime but once the reserve is met I will allow the auction to run it's course and sell to the highest bidder. This is an opportunity to get started in the collector hobby with a running driving car that shows great potential. This Impala is sold as-is with no warranties expressed or implied with no returns.

GM recalling nearly 4,000 vehicles over airbag concerns
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Four different General Motors vehicles from the 2012 model year are being recalled over a potential airbag issue. The driver's side airbag shorting bar in the 2012 Buick Verano and 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, Cruze and Sonic might make contact with the airbag terminals, even during a crash. If so, the airbag won't deploy when it should, possibly increasing injury to the driver.
The recall is expected to begin on February 13 for the 3,896 units that might be affected. GM will notify owners who can then take their vehicles to dealers to have the airbag coil replaced. A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below has more info.
GM shows off 'digital vehicle platform' enabling more in-car tech and OTA updates
Wed, May 22 2019It appears to have dropped the sobriquet "Global B," but General Motors' new electrical architecture has bowed in drawings and video. This is the "digital vehicle platform" GM president Mark Reuss spoke to Reuters about in 2015, saying it would move a great deal of a vehicle's computer work to the cloud and enable over-the-air updates. Reuss took the microphone for the debut, too, saying, "Our new digital vehicle platform and its eventual successors will underpin all our future innovations across a wide range of technological advancements, including EVs and expanded automated driving." The system will go into production later this year, appearing in dealerships first either on the 2020 Cadillac CT5 or the mid-engined 2020 Chevrolet Corvette. Yes, these are the same electronics cited for delaying the launch of the C8 Corvette over excessive draw, security and getting the more-than-100 computer modules to communicate seamlessly. When Car and Driver asked about that, GM replied with "No comment." Volkswagen's having the same issues with the Mk8 Golf right now, though, so GM isn't alone, and this will be the new normal among OEMs for a while. What's certifiable is that the new architecture is robust enough to handle 4.5 terabytes of data per hour, which is five times what GM's current wiring can handle. And thanks to Ethernet connections of 100 Mbps, 1 Gbs and 10 Gbs, communication within and without the vehicle happens much faster. The advances mean better screen resolutions, better battery management for hybrids and electric vehicles, the capability for over-the-air updates and "functionality upgrades throughout the lifespan of the vehicle." Cadillac's Super Cruise has already been lined up as a leading candidate for constant improvements in the driving assistance suite, a key part of GM's "vision for a world with zero crashes, zero emissions and zero congestion." And whenever GM decides to take the plunge, it will mean a 48-volt electrical system. More than 300 specialists worked on the digital platform, and security was a huge part of the task. We've already heard that GM consulted with Boeing and military contractors on how to prevent hacking. The carmaker has an internal Product Cybersecurity group that reached out to the research community, and created a "bug bounty" program to crowdsource uncovering any flaws.
2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 vs. 2019 Ram 1500 vs. 2018 Ford F-150: How they compare
Mon, Jan 15 2018The full-size pickup truck market is seriously hot right now. Both Ram and Chevrolet have introduced completely redesigned trucks, the 2019 Ram 1500 and the 2019 Chevy Silverado, and as the companies slowly roll each one out, more and more information comes to light. We've put together this comparison post to help you keep track of all the features and specifications of each of these new models, along with the updated 2018 Ford F-150. Among the stats we'll take a look at are engines, power, fuel economy, trim levels, weight and more. Weight savings Both the 2019 Ram 1500 and 2019 Chevy Silverado 1500 have gone on a diet for the new model year, similar to the one the F-150 went on in 2015. The Silverado is the weight-loss leader, having shed 450 pounds when comparing quad-cab V8 models. The Ram 1500 lost 225 pounds compared to the current truck. Both trucks achieve their weight loss in part due to the use of aluminum parts. On the Silverado, the hood, doors, and tailgate are aluminum, while on the Ram, just the hood and tailgate are aluminum on the body. Compare that to the F-150, which uses aluminum for all exterior body panels for a total weight loss of up to 732 pounds, which makes the aluminum-intensive F-150 the weight-loss leader. View 160 Photos Engines and transmissions There's only a bit of overlap in powertrains on the Ram 1500 and Chevy Silverado. Each has a V8 for the top engine. The Ram's is a 5.7-liter Hemi V8 making 395 horsepower and 410 pound-feet of torque. The Silverado will once again use a 6.2-liter V8 as its range topper with the same 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque as the current model. Both of these V8s boast some extra fuel saving technology. The Chevy's 6.2-liter (and some 5.3-liters) comes with the company's latest cylinder deactivation system that can shut off any or nearly all of the eight cylinders. The Ram's V8 boasts an optional 48-volt mild-hybrid system that, in addition to likely helping fuel economy, can provide up to 130 pound-feet of torque right off the line. With the Ram, fuel economy sees an improvement of 2 mpg in the city and combined ratings for 17 and 19 respectively. Highway fuel economy improves by 1 mpg to 23 with two-wheel drive and 22 with four-wheel drive. The Silverado's 6.2-liter V8 only improves city fuel economy by 1 mpg to 16, and actually loses 1 mpg on the highway. The new 5.3-liter engine with the fancy cylinder deactivation does see an improvement over the simpler version.
