Lathrop, California, United States
Hi, up for sale is my 1963 Chevy Impala Super Sport
convertible. As you can see by the pictures below this car is beautiful in and
out! You will be hard pressed to find one in this all original condition and in
this very rare color combination. This car has 38k original miles and is fully
documented on my clean California title in hand[Check picture below]. It’s always garage kept and covered. It is
only taken out for car shows. Below I will try and be as thorough as possible
when describing exactly what I see and know about my car. Starting with the
Outside: This car has only 1 repaint that was done in 2001 and still
shows in great to excellent with only a few small flaws, but definitely nothing
that takes away from the car. Let me start by saying that all the chrome and stainless
on the outside is the original, no repop stuff here. The only things that have
been replaced were the emblems, rear antennas, taillights and a few other things
here and there. I kept all the original parts. The bumpers, bumper guards, all
frontend items were either redipped or repolished…very clean. Rear stainless
and 3 piece panel is still the original and has the normal surface scratches
here and there….still looks very clean though. Rear bumper & bumper guard
was rechromed. Side moldings are the original and still look very nice. All
weatherstrips and felts are new. The car has a working power white top with
plastic back window that is in excellent shape that works exactly as it should.
All glass is perfect. Inside:
Inside is beautiful as you can see. It has one interior redo that was done in
2001 while outside paint was being redone. It is in perfect shape top to bottom
with everything excellent. It has alot of factory options installed. It has a
factory working tach, vacuum pop trunk, hazard flashers, compass, spotlights(
can be removed and caps installed), highbeam view finder, Chevrolet visor
mirror, Kleenex dispenser, 8 track player, hand help spotlight, and breezies. Please
note these are all nos parts and not repops. Also installed is a factory
looking indash stereo with mp3 hookup. All speakers have been updated including
custom kick panels with speakers. All electrical is in proper working order. Dashlights,
turnsignals, heater, air, etc are all in proper working order. Motor &
Transmission: The motor is a 327 with lots of power and no issues.
Everything was powder coated to a show finish. Too much to list. As you can see by the
pictures it’s flawless and done. This is a factory power steering and power
brake car. Transmission is a turbo 350 transmission that shifts as it should
with no hesitation. Trunk & Undercarriage: Both very clean as you can see.
Spare & Orig jack kit included. Undercarriage is just as clean as the rest
of the car. Also, newer frontend kit was installed. Everything very nice. Rims & tires,
Etc: The car is rolling on a set
of Cocker wide whitewalls on a set of powdercoated red rims on a totally
restored set of ss hubcaps. Also, I have a set of black rims and skinny
whitewalls if you prefer that look instead…it’s up to you. Above I’ve tried to be as honest as possible about this car.
This is a high dollar car and price will definitely be competitive with others
on these sites. Please no lowballers. You know what this car is worth. I ship alot
of cars out of the country so I know the procedures and costs that occur… I can
help with the costs for getting the car to the shipping ports at a reduced
price. Text, call or email the above posting for more information or offers.
Thanks, Brian 408-seven12-9427. |

GM recalls 83,572 SUVs for ignition switch issue
Sun, Jan 4 2015General Motors is recalling 83,572 SUVs from the 2011 and 2012 model years over a potential ignition lock actuator issue. In affected vehicles, the actuator isn't the right size, which could cause the ignition to get stuck in the "Start" position, and then either due to a jarring event or a "cool interior temperature" the ignition could switch back to the "Accessory" position. Doing so would cause a loss of power assistance and the airbags might not deploy. This is a different ignition issue than the one that's been ongoing for the past year. GM said it expects that less than 500 vehicles suffer from the problem, but that the pool could include vehicles from 2007 through to 2014 that have already been fixed, but with defective parts. The 2011-2012 SUVs included in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration notice: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Silverado HD, Silverado LD, Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Sierra LD, Sierra HD, Yukon, and Yukon XL vehicles. GM will notify owners and dealers will inspect the ignition lock housing to see if it needs a free replacement. RECALL Subject : Ignition Lock Actuator may Bind Report Receipt Date: DEC 30, 2014 NHTSA Campaign Number: 14V827000 Component(s): ELECTRICAL SYSTEM Manufacturer: General Motors LLC SUMMARY: General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2011-2012 Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Silverado HD, Silverado LD, Suburban, Tahoe, GMC Sierra LD, Sierra HD, Yukon, and Yukon XL vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the ignition lock actuator may bind, making turning the key difficult or causing the ignition to get stuck in the "Start" position. CONSEQUENCE: If stuck in the "Start" position, the ignition may suddenly snap back into the "Accessory" position, causing a loss of engine, steering, and braking power, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash. If the vehicle is in a crash, the air bags may not deploy, increasing the risk of occupant injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the ignition lock housing, as necessary, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule. Owners may contact GM customer service at 1-800-458-8006 (Cadillac), 1-800-222-1020 (Chevrolet), or 1-800-462-8782 (GMC). GM's number for this recall is 14696 for the original equipment, and 14912 for the service replacement parts.
2016 Chevy Volt powertrain technical details
Wed, Feb 11 2015The last time General Motors launched a Chevy Volt, it was operating without really knowing how people would use the plug-in hybrid. Sure, it had experience with the EV1, but the Volt was a new kind of car, and you can see in the archives just how much time GM spent explaining this fresh, new powertrain to potential customers. Then, once the vehicle was released, the company collected voluntary data from a large number of owners to learn about their driving and charging habits. The company also asked them what they wanted most in the new version. There's got to be an algorithm buried somewhere in GM headquarters that was used to take all of the numbers GM collected and spat out the headline figures for the 2016 Volt: 50 miles of EV range and 41 miles per gallon. Another important number – price – is something GM isn't talking about yet (expect it in April or May), but the company is sharing some powertrain details about the upcoming car. At a preview lunch in Detroit last week for the SAE 2015 Hybrid & Electric Vehicles Technologies Symposium that's happening now in California, GM engineers Peter Savagian (who is presenting a paper on the new inverter used in the updated Volt) and Tim Grewe (talking about the entire second-generation powertrain) sat down with AutoblogGreen to tell us about the Volt's all-new propulsion system: The overall gist is that the new Voltec 5ET50 drive unit is lighter, smaller and more powerful thanks to a redesigned two-motor traction drive. As previously reported, the new engine is a 1.5-liter DOHC four-cylinder that offers 101-horsepower (at 5,600 RPM). Grewe said it's "great for range extension." The electric motor side of the powertrain offers 149 motoring horsepower from a two-motor, continuously variable transaxle. Initially, the new engine will be made in Mexico. GM will move production to Flint, MI during the first year it makes the 2016 Volt. The battery is slightly bigger in the new Volt – 18.4 kWh compared to 16.5 in the current-gen – and will have less range variation in the cold. GM is also using more of the overall capacity in the pack in the 2016 Volt than in previous versions, but is not saying how much more. GM is not ready to publish acceleration times just yet, but the 2016 Volt has improved numbers, especially when going from 30-60 miles per hour. Most everything on the new powertrain has become more efficient compared to the first-gen Volt.
Star Wars Car Drives To The Dark Side Of Comic Con
Tue, Jul 22 2014When it comes to designing coveted collectible toys for sale at Comic-Con, the annual celebration of pop culture lifting off Thursday in San Diego, the sky's the limit for the designers at Mattel. Fittingly, the building where Mattel's dreamers conceive of their limited-edition playthings is just down the street from the Los Angeles International Airport. Inside the colorful design center - a Hot Wheels-themed shuttle bus transports employees from Mattel's parking garage - the designers have spent the past year working on 10 toys created especially for the Comic-Con crowd, including a replica of the Batmobile from the upcoming game "Batman: Arkham Knight" and a 9-inch-tall action figure of Superman killer Doomsday. "We don't have to worry about retail. We don't have to worry about margins," said Doug Wadleigh, Mattel's senior vice president of global brand marketing for boys and entertainment. "We don't have to worry about operational efficiencies. We only have to worry about creating the coolest toys for our fans. Period." It also offers some escape from Mattel's reality these days. Like other toy makers struggling in this digital, video-centric age, the company is trying to remain relevant in the retail world. Core brands like Barbie have seen less of a demand, with a 14 percent drop in sales in the first quarter of this year. Mattel had a net loss for the first three months ending March 31 that totaled $11.2 million. But things will at least seem rosier at Comic-Con, where eager buyers for the toys await (the only other place they will be sold is on the Mattel collector's site). Mattel's exclusives this year run between $20 and $85, but elite toys can fetch much more when they're put up for auction. The crown jewel for Wadleigh and his team this year is a Darth Vader die-cast car, the first official collaboration from Hot Wheels and the "Star Wars" franchise. The car - imagine if a Chevrolet Corvette C5 and the villainous Sith lord's helmet had a baby - comes in a sleek black box and encased in a replica of Vader's lightsaber, complete with a swooshing sound effect. "We've been trying to partner with Lucasfilm and Disney on this property for a long time," said Wadleigh. A full-size working replica of the Vadermobile will be on display at Mattel's booth at the massive San Diego Convention Center.
