1960 Chevrolet Impala
The car starts right up and it is very dependable. This is not a car that will
leave you stranded somewhere. It could be used as a daily driver if desired but
a car like this should be a weekend car to get away from it all. No weird
noises, oil leaks or other nasty problems.
Registration and Title
The car has been recently registered and has a clean Hawaii title. The car was purchased from California 4 years ago. It has
the original Year of Manufacture plates (Yellow with black letters &
matching sticker).
Accessories
I have the Owners Manual, 1960 Impala dealer pamphlet, Shop Manual, Wiring
Diagrams manual, and Assembly Manual.
Body
The doors close with a nice solid thump. All panels line up perfectly. The
front clip of the car has all relatively new parts (radiator support, wheel wells, hood
latch, hood springs). All the weather stripping has been replaced, from the
hood to the trunk.The car also has matching locks throughout, so 1 key will
open all doors, trunk, glovebox, and start it up.
The frame is solid, with no visible holes or damage. The car has never
been modified or cut in any way.
Glass
It has all windows and glass and they all roll up and down. No cracks or chips.
However, the small vent windows have some minor bubbling around the edges, not
too noticeable.
Moldings
It has all the moldings and most are in near perfect. It has minor dings and
dents on the moldings but 90% are like new, still very shiny and straight. I
have been told they can be fixed and polished easily if desired to be restored
to showroom condition.
Paint
The paint is in ok condition. However, it is not a “show” or super quality
paint job. It has some small paint chips throughout and small blemishes on the
trunk area. The defects are minor, but it will be in need a paint job sooner or later. Overall it looks
great and is a real head-turner whenever you take it for a ride.
Electrical
Headlights, low and high beams
work. Interior dome lights work. Dash lights work. Turn signals work. Horn
works. Tail lights and reverse lights work. Glovebox light works. Parking
warning light works. Simply put, this is almost in perfect condition. I recently upgraded
the generator to an alternator. The generator had been recently rebuilt but I
wanted some more power to run the extra audio components. The
Generator (charging) light also works and is wired to the alternator. It is a chrome alternator and looks really nice.
Audio
I have added new speakers in the front and rear. The factory radio does not
work. However, I have wired an iPod and mp3 kit so you can play all your
favorite tunes. The volume for the iPod/mp3 player is controlled from the
factory radio volume knob. Set of Clarion sub-woofers in the back (non-mounted) for great sounds and a speaker in the front under the dash. Everything is powered by amp and EQ.
Engine
It has a 348 motor with an automatic transmission and it runs like a champ!
Starts right up and it has plenty of power. The radiator was also re-cored
in the last few years. It also has an electric fan installed. It has a 4 year old complete exhaust
installed. Also has new hoses and gas cap for the gas tank. The odometer reads 89XXX. However, the odometer just stopped working a little while back. Since then I have
only put about 500 miles on the vehicle.
Brakes and Suspension
The brakes work great and were recently inspected and adjusted. The rear has
new shocks. It rides real smooth.
Interior
The interior is in excellent condition, no rips or tears (it looks brand new).
The carpet could use a cleaning but it has no stains, holes or tears. I have
added two color matching seatbelts in the front and rear. Everything looks great and the dash is also
near perfect.
Other
The trunk has a custom setup with plenty of space in the designated
compartments for tools/audio/spare tire/whatever. It is wrapped in white and
aqua/turquoise vinyl to match the exterior. This is not permanent and may be
easily removed in 5 minutes if desired.
Rust
For the age of the car, this is certainly in good shape. However, there are some
areas in need of minor attention. The trunk area has 1 or 2 some small holes
(about 1” in diameter) which could be patched. However, the trunk is still very
solid, I have been in the trunk while wiring up the audio and it has held up
just fine. The area just behind the rear wheels are showing some small bubbling
from rust. The driver side rear passenger floorpan has some rust, which has
gone through but it has a metal pan installed. The floorpans are all solid
overall and are fine the way they are unless you plan on fully restoring the
car. Again, there is some rust but very minor and could be fixed very easily.
Wheels and Tires
The Impala is sitting on a beautiful set of Daytons. These is a bit of rust on them, and if you decide to keep them you'll probably want to have them re-chromed in the near future.
Tires are solid and in great condition.
Recent Work
Head gaskets and torque bolts
Steering coupling and gear box
New rear brake lines
New wiper motor
Axle bearings
All of this work has been done in the last 1000 miles, making this Impala a smoother ride and a lot of fun to drive.
If you've got any questions, please ask and I will do my best to answer them. Thank you for your interest.

Chevy's decision to call its new electric car the Bolt has stirred controversy and confusion, but regardless, it's well on its way to becoming a production reality. The prototype captured in these shots is heavily camouflaged, but the crossover/hatchback styling cues are still evident. The car also has a tall greenhouse, slight creases in the sides, and a sloping roofline in back. There's a rapidly rising body line that makes for less glass for rear passengers, but that's probably part of the camo. The Bolt is expected to arrive for 2017 and will be sold in all 50 states. The Chevy Bolt carries the promise of bringing EV technology to a broader audience. Chevy said the car will cost about $30,000 after possible tax incentives and could have a range of 200 miles. It will be assembled at General Motors' Orion Assembly factory north of Detroit. The Bolt will augment the plug-in hybrid Volt in Chevy's green fleet, and it will compete against vehicles like the BMW i3 and Nissan Leaf. Related Video:

We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Senior Editor James Riswick. This week, they talk about driving the Genesis GV70, VW ID.4 and VW Taos. They talk about ways Chevy could "fix" the Camaro. James ranked all the James Bond films based solely on their starring cars. Next, they reach in the mailbag and discuss the question, "Do you think Lexus will make a successor to the LFA and, if so, what do you guys think it would be like?" After ruminating on that query, they dip into the mailbag a second time to recommend a sporty crossover to a listener in this week's Spend My Money segment.
