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.

Chevy shows much-improved 2014 Corvette interior in new video

Mon, 11 Feb 2013

If you want a closer look at what went into designing and building the interior for the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette, we've got just the thing. General Motors has released a new video detailing the cabin's evolution from conception to execution, complete with commentary from Ryan Vaughn, performance car interior design manager with Chevrolet. The quick clip details how manufacturing, engineering and design within General Motors worked together from the first sketches to ensure no compromises had to be made later down the line. How novel.
With plenty of hides traced with contrast stitching and available real carbon fiber trim, the cabin looks to be a few hundred miles ahead of the C6. Given how readily critics derided the previous generation for its cabin, the C7 should make writers work a little harder to find something to complain about. Check out the video below for yourself.

Autoblog's Editors' Picks: Our complete list of the best new vehicles

Mon, May 13 2024

It's not easy to earn an “EditorsÂ’ Picks” at Autoblog as part of the rating and review process that every new vehicle goes through. Our editors have been at it a long time, which means weÂ’ve driven and reviewed virtually every new car you can go buy on the dealer lot. There are disagreements, of course, and all vehicles have their strengths and weaknesses, but this list features what we think are the best new vehicles chosen by Autoblog editors. We started this formal review process back in 2018, so there's quite of few of them now. So what does it mean to be an EditorsÂ’ Pick? In short, it means itÂ’s a car that we can highly recommend purchasing. There may be one, multiple, or even zero vehicles in any given segment that we give the green light to. What really matters is that itÂ’s a vehicle that weÂ’d tell a friend or family member to go buy if theyÂ’re considering it, because itÂ’s a very good car. The best way to use this list is is with the navigation links below. Click on a segment, and you'll quickly arrive at the top rated pickup truck or SUV, for example. Use the back button to return to these links and search in another segment, like sedans. If youÂ’ve been keeping up with our monthly series of the latest vehicles to earn EditorsÂ’ Pick status, youÂ’re likely going to be familiar with this list already. If not, welcome to the complete list that weÂ’ll be keeping updated as vehicles enter (and others perhaps exit) the good graces of our editorial team. We rate a new car — giving it a numerical score out of 10 — every time thereÂ’s a significant refresh or if it happens to be an all-new model. Any given vehicle may be impressive on a first drive, but we wait until itÂ’s in the hands of our editors to put it through the same type of testing as every other vehicle that rolls through our test fleet before giving it the EditorsÂ’ Pick badge. This ensures consistency and allows more voices to be heard on each individual model. And just so you donÂ’t think weÂ’ve skipped trims or variants of a model, we hand out the EditorsÂ’ Pick based on the overarching model to keep things consistent. So, when you read that the 3 Series is an EditorsÂ’ Pick, yes, that includes the 330i to the M3 and all the variants in between. If thereÂ’s a particular version of that car we vehemently disagree with, we make sure to call that out.

Chevy: The Big Game

Mon, Feb 2 2015

Chevrolet took an early lead for the 2015 Super Bowl advertising crown with its spot for the all-new, 4G LTE-capable Colorado pickup in a spot that simulated a problem with your TV. The stark, simple ad then states that if you're lucky enough to have an Internet-capable vehicle, like the new Colorado, you'd at least be able to stream the game. A clever, chuckle-inducing spot if there was one. Check out our full write up of the new, 2015 Colorado. Marketing/Advertising Chevrolet Truck Super Bowl Commercials Videos 2015 super bowl ad
