1963 Chevrolet Impala Sport Coupe - 409 Cubic Inch engine 425 Horse power. Barn Find-Survivor Impala. This is the original paint and interior. Great Patina. Accident Free and Rust Free Oregon car. The car was sold new in Canby, Oregon, at Sam's Garage. One owner. I bought it six years ago, after the original owner passed away. I just finished a complete Mechanical restoration of it. I was careful to preserve the original paint and interior. I wanted the Barn Find-Survivor look. It has an original 1963 Chevrolet 409 - 425 Horsepower QB engine with a Muncie close ratio 4 speed. This car was born with a 6 cylinder engine with a 3 speed manual transmission. The following is what I did to the Impala. I was after a "Day 2" Survivor look.
ENGINE: I purchased the complete engine from a 1963 Impala, that was rolled and totaled back in 1965. The car had 20,000 miles. The engine went into storage from 1965 until August of 2011, when I bought it. Since it was stored for 46 years, I had it professionally rebuilt. There was no ring ridge or cylinder taper, Standard bore. I found some NOS piston rings, for the original TRW pistons. The crank was standard on the Main and Rod journals, so it was polished and new standard bearings were installed. New oil pump. Gave it a valve job and new valve stem seals. The block number is 3830814 and the stamp on the pad is 11023QB. The heads are the High performance Big Port #3814690 heads. The intake manifold number is 3814881 and is a Winters casting. I had the original AFB (3361 and 3362) carburetors rebuilt. Correct 409 distributor, its number is 1111023. I did convert it to a Pertronix Electric conversion (It is hidden under the original cap, however I retained the stock points equipment). I rebuilt the original water pump, the original alternator, new AC Delco fuel pump. Still has the original Dripper Valve covers and air cleaner. New air filter element. New Flywheel and Heavy Duty Ram clutch assembly. New reproduction radiator, hoses, heater hoses, battery, etc. Completely new exhaust system; with Sanderson Headers, and Flowmaster 40 Mufflers. I had the Muncie Close ratio 4 speed trans rebuilt and it shifts great. I did use a Hurst Shifter assembly, with a reproduction original GM shifter handle. Reproduction 6000 RPM tach. Stewart Warner Oil and temp gauges. I did every thing right with the right parts. The Impala starts, runs, drives and stops great. I have driven it 20 miles since completing it. It is a fresh build. Three inch thick build book documenting all the parts and work done. Receipts for every thing. Clean and clear Oregon title. OTHER: I installed American mags, 7 x 15 front, and 8-1/2 x 15 rear. Tires are new Dunlop GT Qualifiers, 215/70x15 front and 235/70x15 rear. 4 New Gas shocks. The car is located in Corvallis, Oregon 97330. I am located 85 miles South of the Portland, Oregon Airport. I am 35 miles North of the Eugene, Oregon Airport. Fly in and drive it home. Or, I will assist your shipper with loading it. I have been an Ebayer since 2002, with a 100% rating. The car is For Sale locally, so the auction may end early. If you have any questions, or need more information please call me on my cell (541) 740-4140. The car is available for your inspection. Email works too. If I don't answer my cell, please call my office (541) 753-5944 and leave a message. I just turned 67 years old, and I am going to retire. I will be selling my business. So I need to down size my fleet some what. Good luck bidding. |

Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R named Road & Track Performance Car of the Year
Mon, Nov 9 2015With a 526-horsepower, 5.2-liter V8 that roars to 8,250 rpm, it's really hard to consider the 2016 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350R an underdog in any fight. However, the Shelby held the lowest as-tested price and was only middle of the pack in terms of power in Road & Track's 2016 Performance Car of the Year challenge. The 'Stang's numbers clearly didn't tell the whole story about the potent coupe because Ford's muscle car grabbed the title in this year's test. A model needs to be new or significantly updated to be eligible for the honor, and R&T found an impressive slate of eight candidates this year. The challengers included the Bentley Continental GT3-R, Cadillac ATS-V Coupe, Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Dodge Viper ACR, Mercedes-AMG GT S, and Porsche Cayman GT4. The Ferrari 488 GTB was the most expensive of the bunch with an as-tested price of $347,942, which is five times more than the Shelby. Once the group was together, R&T hustled them over curving roads and on the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park. There was a lot to love about the Shelby, even in this impressive crew. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," editor-in-chief Larry Webster said in the announcement of the results. The GT350R joins some great company. Past winners include the Porsche 911 GT3 last year and the Corvette in 2013. For some fantastic photography and the complete appraisal of these performance machines check out R&T's website for the full story.

The article appears in the December/January issue, on newsstands November 17, and on RoadandTrack.com. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," said Larry Webster, editor-in-chief of Road & Track. "Not only does the car have soul and harness so much firepower with such ease, but the real achievement here is that it's so approachable. It's a car you can't help but love." The Mustang Shelby GT350R was the winner by a runaway vote.
'84 MotorWeek Cherokee, Bronco and Blazer comparison indulges your SUV nostalgia
Fri, Jan 16 2015These days, truck-based, full-frame SUVs are somewhat of a rarity on the auto landscape due to the rapid rise in popularity of easier-driving, car-based crossovers. Although, without the gradually building popularity of these chunky, high-riding vehicles decades ago, it's unlikely that America's roads would be filled with so many CUVs today. In its latest dig into the archives, MotorWeek has found a 1984 comparison test of a trio of these early Sport Utility Wagons, as long-time host John Davis called them, that helped get acceptance of this segment going. This is a red, white and blue test of the SUVs from American automakers at the time and pits the Chevrolet Blazer, Ford Bronco and Jeep Cherokee (specifically in Wagoneer guise) against each other. Driving manners and interior usability are considered in the evaluation, but Motorweek actually takes these vehicles off road, too. Among the bigger revelations is the improvement in on-road ability in the past 30 years. While specific 0-60 times aren't given, all three models take around 10 seconds just to get to around 50 miles per hour in the 500-feet on-ramp acceleration test. Check out this clip to see just how far this segment has progressed in the past three decades or just get a blast of nostalgia from these now vintage models.
