Up for sale is my 1962 Impala SS. I have owned this car 7 years. All I have done is tune it up and drive it on the weekends. New Edelbrock card and air cleaner (have the original Rochester and air cleaner), Petronix points conversion (just for reliability), 327 4 barrel factory with a powerglide. Car is complete and drives great. minor power steering leak but that's normal, Minor rust here and there nothing bad. Like I said this is a survivor car that was repainted in the 70's from my guess. All numbers match as they should. Drivers window needs a lower frame. Car has factory power brakes also. This is a great and easy restoration. I have 2 others and this one is the best of all my cars. I am not in a jam to sell it, just putting it out there to see if someone has to have it. Trunk, quarters, doors, hood, deck lid all rust free. Minor rust in the lower front fenders and on small spot on the drivers floor. BY NO MEANS IS THIS A RUST BUCKET! I have had over 20 Impala's of this era and I know these cars to well. This is the best 62 survivor I have ever had. The original hubcaps are included and the dog dish ones also. If there is a pic with Rally's on it those wheels are on my 63 now and do not come with this car. Right now the Car has the Original 14 inch wheels and BRAND NEW Hankook Whitewalls with the dog dish hubcaps on it.  I am posting a lot of pics over the last couple years but the car has not changed. Always stored indoors and covered since I have owned it. Great car and if it doesn't sell I 'll keep it. Thanks and good luck. Cash only please.  TN Title in my name in hand!

Ok, I have had a ton of email on the SS thing. I'll just say IT IS NOT AN SS so the bickering will stop, my appologies. I will post the VIN and Cowl Tag info shortly and you all can decide.  

On a lighter note I forgot to mention a few new items I have done to the car are:

  • All new Energy Suspension bushings for the rear suspenstion are installed
  • All new Coil springs installed
  • All new shocks installed
  • New master cylinder
  • New radiator
  • Has a 1 wire alternator on it (but the harness has not been spliced or cut)
  • Have 2 spare wiper motors (the one in it is tempermental)
  • New Energy Suspension front sway bar bushings
  • There's morre but I can't remeber everything......

With all that said I have driven the car 60-70 miles a day around the area with no issues. Would I drive it to Florida (600 miles) tomorrow? I would want to go through it a little more so I suggest if you are not with in a safe radius (50-100 miles) you trailer it. Yes it is the original 327 and it has never been reduilt or touched along with the powerglide. Still has the Rams-Head manifolds on it. No, I will not tell you my reserve. Remeber I do not have to sell it, just will part with it for the right price. Let's just say I have seen recently some real junkers on here lately go for alot more than my reserve. Hope everyone is happy now. Good luck and have a blessed day.

Auto sales in March and first quarter down nearly across the board

Wed, Apr 3 2019

Nearly every major automaker reported weak U.S. sales for March and the first quarter of 2019, citing a rough start to the year, but said a robust economy and strong labor market should encourage consumers to buy more vehicles as 2019 rolls on. GM, which no longer releases monthly sales figures, saw first-quarter sales fall 7 percent, with declines across all brands. Sales of Silverado pickup trucks fell nearly 16 percent and the high-margin Chevy Suburban large SUV dropped 25 percent. Ford also no longer releases monthly sales numbers, but is due to release its first-quarter sales figures on Thursday. According to industry data, Ford's sales fell 2 percent in the quarter and 5 percent in March. Ford representatives did not immediately respond to requests for comment. FCA reported a 7 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and a 3 percent drop for the first quarter. All of FCA's brands dropped in March, except for Ram, which saw a 15 percent increase in pickup truck sales. "The industry had a tough first quarter, but with spring finally starting to show its face and continued strong economic indicators ... we are confident that new vehicle sales demand will strengthen going forward," FCA's U.S. head of sales, Reid Bigland, said in a statement. Toyota reported a 3.5 percent fall in U.S. sales in March and 5 percent for the first quarter, hurt by declining demand for its Corolla sedans and Camry vehicles. "While some of our competitors are abandoning sedans, we remain optimistic about the future of the segment," Toyota said in a statement. Nissan posted a 5.3 percent drop in sales in March, and its first-quarter sales were down 11.6 percent. Honda and Hyundai bucked the trend. Honda's U.S. sales rose 4.3 percent in March and 2 percent in the quarter, while Hyundai's were up 1.7 percent and 2.1 percent, respectively. Passenger-car sales suffered throughout the January-March quarter compared with the same period in 2018 as Americans continued to abandon them in favor of larger, more comfortable pickup trucks and SUVs, which are far more profitable for automakers. The battle for market share in the particularly lucrative large-pickup truck market intensified in the quarter, as Fiat Chrysler Automobiles' Ram brand outsold the U.S.' No. 1 automaker General Motors' Chevrolet-brand trucks. The two automakers have both launched redesigned pickup trucks.

Here are the best-selling cars and trucks from January 2015

Fri, Feb 6 2015

Every month, Autoblog slogs through all the sales figures reported by automakers that do business in the United States, and, after a little bit of sorting, we put it into an easy-to-read chart in an attempt to make it as easy as possible to follow the ins and outs of sales and shipments. But that only covers the brands themselves, not the individual models they sell. And we think you'd all be interested in knowing which vehicles beat their rivals in sales from month to month, so we've put together this handy gallery to keep you in the know. While the leader of the pack may not come as much of a surprise, the order that the top ten finishes in changes frequently – due to automaker deals, the price of gas, etc. – and we've included some statistics to help you see how their current performance stacks up to month's past.

Chevy gets cracking on Cruze EV fleet testing

Tue, 21 Sep 2010

Chevrolet Cruze EV - Click above for high-res image gallery
The Chevrolet Volt hasn't yet gone on sale, but General Motors is looking at ways of expanding its electric vehicle lineup. Chevy, along with partner LG, is employing a group of all-electric cars in the form of the Cruze. The sedans are part of a demonstration fleet which is located in Seoul, South Korea and is being used to provide data in an electric vehicle research project. The goal is to gather information on driving patterns and charging behavior in addition to consumer acceptance.
The Cruze EVs, along with some Daewoo Lacetti Premieres EVs, are the first fleet of full-size electric vehicles and should provide invaluable information for The General. Staying full-size means not sacrificing cargo space, so the battery pack is mounted to the underbody, leaving the trunk area open for plenty recyclable, canvas grocery bags.
