1959 Chevrolet Impala 2 Door Dr Hardtop Project Car Clear Title Extras on 2040-cars
Jefferson City, Missouri, United States
|
Offering a few of my projects from 30 years of building 59's in the next several weeks due to a possible move this fall. Have brother-in-law who is OTR owner/operator with access to 10 car hauling trailer, so I can take it if nessessary. It will only be listed once on ebay, then go to auction with estate sale via Vanderbrinks/proxibid or similar. This project is very similar to the one sold at Lambrects for 9k, but really a more solid car overall at a much lower price. This is a 59 Impala 2 door htp. It was side swiped on the drivers side in the early 70's and has been in storage since. Original white 936A car with turquoise interior. Was a 6cyl/3 speed car, but has no motor or trans in it now. The interior is all there with the exception of the front door panels. There is a replacement door and upper quarter half(with door jamb and inner panel) that comes with it. It will still need lower qtr sections on drivers side. I also have gather a complete set of drivers side trim that is nice and restorable. These pieces all come with the car, but like I said, you will need to purchase left lower qtrs. The floors and trunk floor will need replaced, as they all do, as you can see in the pics. You may also need to do some work to the left wheel tub, although it doesn't look too bad and did not even get into the window post, or it probably would have broken the rear glass. This is definitely a savable car as hard as these are to find and the prices they bring. Not for the faint at heart, but very much repairable. What you see in the pics is what you get, and as I said, I am including a full left side set of trim. The frame looks to be solid in all of the common tor areas. It may need some minor repair in the very rear corners to the gussets. The car rolls and steers easy and tires hold air for easy loading. I also have a tractor to assist. Overseas bidders are welcome, however a tractor/trailer cannot get in my private road, so in the past I have loaded the car on my trailer and met the transport at an agreed on local site at 65109. I have no problem doing this for you , as I have done for several over the years. The car is sold as-is where-is and will not leave the property until all funds have cleared my bank account. Immediate deposit required with buy now options, otherwise full payment expected in 7 days with 1000.00 deposit at end of auction. Buyer is responsible for all shipping cost and arrangements(allow for extra qtr panel unless you want me to cut the lower rusty section off and stick it through the rear seat opening). The car can set here for up to 30 days after auction ends. Will try to ad pics of trunk and trim by tomorrow. Thanks for looking! Watch for others to be listed soon 60 2 dr htp, another 59 2dr htp, 59 Kingswood wagon 9 passenger, and possible 1 one of my convs. These ads are all also going up on local CL and ad sheets, so I do reserve the right to end auctions at any time should I receive a reasonable comittment from a local buyer. However, if you have placed a winning bid or have met the reserve(if this applies to the car you want), then the car is yours and the auction will run its coarse. |

Why Cadillac thinks it needs to succeed in Europe to sell cars elsewhere
Tue, 26 Feb 2013Ward's Auto has taken an interesting look at the renewed focus General Motors is showing towards Cadillac in Europe. Susan Docherty, president and managing director of Chevrolet and Cadillac in Europe (pictured), says in order for the luxury brand to thrive in China, it first needs to succeed in the old country. The reason? Chinese buyers look to Europe for cues as to what's deemed worthy of the term "luxury." There are hurdles to the plan, however. In addition to the fact that the EU is flooded with high-end nameplates, GM doesn't necessarily have the distribution network in place to put buyers behind the wheel.
Combine that with persistent economic woes and Cadillac's checkered past marred by a lack of diesel engine options and a bankrupt distributor, and the road ahead for the brand looks like less of an uphill climb and more like a straight-up cliff face. But Docherty is optimistic and says she has a plan for the brand. We recommend heading over to Ward's for a closer look at the full read.
Weekly Recap: BMW rolls out ambitious plug-in hybrid electric plan
Sat, Dec 6 2014"We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important." – Julian Arguelles Let there be no doubt, BMW is serious about electric vehicles. The German automaker said this week it will make plug-in hybrid versions of all of its core models, an aggressive move that demonstrates its commitment to electric propulsion systems. BMW did not specify which vehicles will get the plug-in systems or provide a timeline for when they will arrive. But the announcement is clearly more than blustering, and the company revealed a 3 Series plug-in prototype this week at an event in France. BMW said the 3 Series uses a version of its 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine (240 horsepower, 300 pound feet of torque) with an electric motor sandwiched between the engine and transmission in place of the torque converter. It has an all-electric range of 22 miles. A plug-in X5 with the same powertrain was also displayed alongside the 3 Series, though the X5 has been on the auto-show circuit for more than a year, including a recent stop in Los Angeles. Those two vehicles use "eDrive," and BMW's plans represent the first widespread transfer of its technology from development of the i3 and i8 models to more mainstream products. BMW said it's developing electric powertrains so they can be deployed rapidly across its range, and they are flexible enough to be used with fuel cells in future products. Enticingly, BMW is also working on a "Power eDrive" system, which debuted in a 5 Series GT concept at the event in France. This setup has two electric motors powered by a 20-kilowatt-hour battery pack, and when teamed with a four-cylinder turbo, pump out about 670 hp. Reinforcing BMW's commitment, the company will add more than 200 jobs at its factory in Dingolfing, Germany, to support electric-vehicle development. The moves come as BMW and other automakers diversify their portfolios while fuel economy and emissions regulations are getting tighter around the world. The United States has set a 54.5-mpg CAFE requirement for the 2025 model year. BMW said the electric vehicles were developed with an eye toward the US market, its government policies and its wide-ranging commuting styles. "We believe that for the United States, this is going to be very important," spokesman Julian Arguelles said. Ben Scott, a senior analyst in London with automotive research firm IHS, said BMW's moves are expensive – but necessary – to keep pace with the market.
GM re-recalls 11k SUVs
Tue, Oct 13 2015General Motors is recalling a bunch of previously recalled SUVs because, well, they still aren't quite fixed. The latest repairs are necessary on 10,974 SUVs in North America, including 9,932 in only the US. Affected models include the 2006-2007 Buick Rainier, Chevrolet Trailblazer, and GMC Envoy; plus the 2006 Trailblazer EXT and Envoy XL. While not listed by NHTSA, a statement by GM to Autoblog says the 2006-2007 Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender are also affected. In these SUVs, it's possible that liquid could get into the driver's door master power window switch module and cause a short circuit. This could potentially lead to a fire, and owners are urged to park the vehicles outside until repaired. GM has been trying to fix this issue for years. It started as an investigation into fires, and that led to a recall for about 250,000 vehicles in cold-weather states. A nationwide campaign came in 2013 for 193,000 of them in the US. Last year, the automaker decided to replace the whole module as a repair. However in a recent investigation of these recalls, GM discovered that this latest group of SUVs never received the new part. According to documents submitted to NHTSA (as a PDF), "Some dealers incorrectly used the labor code associated with module replacement when, instead of replacing the module, they only added a protective coating to the module." To fix things this time, the models finally get the correct component. Related Video: GM Statement General Motors is recalling 9,932 older midsize SUVs in the U.S. because they were mistakenly excluded from an earlier recall. Certain 2006 Chevrolet TrailBlazer EXT and GMC Envoy XL, and 2006-2007 TrailBlazer, Envoy, Buick Rainier, Saab 9-7X and Isuzu Ascender vehicles may continue to have a condition in which the printed circuit board inside the driver's door may corrode and short if exposed to certain fluids such as melted snow containing road salt. GM is aware of four fires but no crashes, injuries or fatalities associated with the expanded recall. The total number of vehicles being recalled, including Canada, Mexico and exports is 10.974. Customers are urged to park these vehicles outside until repairs have been made. GM reported this recall to the NHTSA on September 23.
