1962 Chevrolet Imapala Ss 327 Turbo-fire V8 Convertible Red/white Top on 2040-cars
Lebanon, Missouri, United States
In 1962 Chevrolet sold nearly 100,000 cars that would forever be known as an Impala SS. The SS kit was made available to consumers during the middle of the production year for $53.80. The Super Sport kit included spinner wheel covers, SS badges, and a glove box grab bar. This particular car also came with a factory Kleenex holder. Pushing this car is a 327 Turbo-Fire V8, making 250 Hp. The red vinyl interior is complimented by a white top and 4 ply polyester whitewalls. The Impala has recently been removed from the museum and was noted to having been in a fully functional state when it was returned. While there is no such thing as a perfect car, I believe that this is one of the nicest examples that is out on the market today, showing only 2,295 miles on the odometer. The mileage is however unverified. The Interior has a like new glow to it, the whitewalls are bright and hold air well, the paint and top have little to no wear on them either. In my opinion this car runs and drives beautifully and would be a great addition to any museum, or an Impala enthusiasts garage. I would like for anyone with interest in this car to come look at it. This car has spent the most recent part of its life in a family owned and maintained museum. We have loved this car, however we are trying to downsize our operations. This is just one car, of several cars, that we would like to see find a good home. Thank you for your interest and consideration in this vehicle. If you would like to see the car in person, or would like more information or pictures, I encourage you to contact me by phone, text, or Email. My name is Michael and I can be reached at 417.664.1313 or EvergreenCarGuy@Gmail.com. Again, thank you for your interest and consideration. This car must be picked up within 30 days of the auctions end, and paid for before it is removed from the museum. I will not be responsible for shipping this car, but I am willing to offer my assistance in arranging transportation for the new owner. I hold the right to sell this car outside of eBay, and may terminate this auction at any time, for any reason. This car comes with no warranty expressed or implied. |

Chevy: The Big Game
Mon, Feb 2 2015Chevrolet 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
GM files for Z71 Trail Boss trademark
Mon, Jan 26 2015Try as they might to keep their plans a secret, automakers have their hands tipped through a variety of methods – be they through loose lips, spy shots or patent and trademark applications. That's how we know, in this instance, that General Motors is working on (or at least considering) an off-road machine wearing the name Z71 Trail Boss – the name which our compatriots at AutoGuide.com tell us that GM has registered for use on light-duty trucks. Now if that alphanumeric designator sounds familiar, it should. GM has long used it to designate the off-road packages on many of its body-on-frame trucks from Chevy and GMC. These days you can order a Z71 package on the Chevy Colorado, Silverado, Tahoe and Suburban and on the GMC Canyon, Sierra and Yukon. The package typically includes components like a beefed-up suspension bits, high-capacity air cleaner and underbody protection plates. The Trail Boss designator would seem to suggest something further reaching than a suspension package, though. Just what it would entail we don't know; minds immediately start running toward Chevy or GMC going after the Ford F-150 Raptor, but we'll likely be looking at something closer to the Trailhawk packages Jeep offers on the likes of the Renegade and Cherokee.

Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner
Sat, 24 Aug 2013For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"
