You are bidding on a 1963 chevy impala, this beauty has the rare anniversary gold paint, in the early 80s the car was purchased from an estate sale in Kentucky, which it only had 8,000 miles at that time, i have pictures of the car when it was original it was very clean with hardly any rust at all, these pictures will be included in the sale. In 2001 the impala recieved a frame off restoration,which I also have the pictures of that being done as well which will also be included in the sale.The 283 automatic car became a 350 4 speed manual at this time, I do have the original 283 if the winning bidder would like it. Im sure it would need to be rebuilt after years of sitting.The frame off was done right,every nut and bolt was replaced or restored as well,the frame,trunk floor boards, are solid with no rust since the restore the car has less than 4000 miles it has never seen rain,snow,salt etc. I am selling this car because I am down sizing and no longer have a home for it I will include as many pics as ebay will let me including the frame sitting on 4 tires. I have to sell quick so this will be a no reserve 5 day auction so please bid early and often for you will not be dissapointed. This car can be filled up and driven anywhere, I took one last 2 hour cruise yesterday and again would drive it anywhere,I felt like we should spend one more day together,before she gets her new owner, as I stated the car has to go so if your not gonna follow through please do not bid. Winnning bidder must immediately give a $1000 deposit through pay pal and the car must be picked up before June 5TH because of my down sizing I am forced to leave the state, so if you cant pick it up by 6/5/13 please dont bid.I am willing to pick anyone up at Chicagos Midway Airport if they need a ride, again this car can be driven anywhere with confidence,motor,tranny,lights, brakes, etc are all in working order,there are a couple flaws,a ding in the chrome here or there,a little chip in the steering wheel,nothing that is gonna cause the winner any headaches. There are absolutely no leaks ever under the car its been in my garage for years with no puddles,of any type,so no worries there.Again I hate the fact of selling it but there is no place for it where I am going,and I want her to have the home she deserves, as she has had the past 30 some yrs or so I also have the original owners manual,the original Kentucky plate that was on the car when it was registered in 1963 to its first owner I am the second. The Impala turned 50 this year and is near perfect,but remember she is 50 and the restore was 12 years ago, so its not percect,but it will win some shows thats for sure,there is no holes in dash, the original am stero sits in it still, so if you are looking for a car with jams you will have to buy some. The tires are good,brakes good I could go on and but I will let you judge, I have a crazy work schedule,so If there are any questions I will answer as fast as I can. The car must be paid in full at time of pick-up minus the $1000 deposit thru pay pal. The title will be signed over to the winner and off you go in your classic 1963 Impala that will ony increase in value as the years pass by. Again bid with confidence, I dont have a ton of feedback but its 100% I tell the truth. The car is all there you will not be dissapointed. Thanks for your interest,good luck and Happy Bidding. I have had over 70 questions on the car,and most of them wanted a buy it now so I added that to the listing. Also about the miles the car had 8000 roughly on it when I purchased,when it thru the restore a 350 crate motor and a brand new muncie 4 speed where installed so the motor and tranny have approximately 4000 miles thats the bottom line the car now has almost 12,000 and drive train only 4000 thanks and Good Luck. The car may be sold at anytime,during this auction and if somebody wants to make a reasonable offer feel free I want to sell asap but its not a must and in my opinion the buy it now is $10,000 to cheap. There are not many of these around,and this one is a turn key car,drive it store it collect it whatever your pleasure.

GM recalling 686k Lambda-platform models for hatch repair
Fri, Jul 10 2015General Motors is recalling 686,287 units of its Lambda platform crossovers. On models equipped with a power rear hatch the system can potentially fail. This campaign includes the 2008-2012 Buick Enclave, 2009-2012 Chevrolet Traverse, 2007-2012 GMC Acadia, and 2007-2010 Saturn Outlook. According to GM's documents to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (as a PDF), dirt can get into a portion of the strut that holds up the hatch and cause the part to prematurely fail. There's a redundancy in place called the Prop Rod Recovery system that's designed to shut the liftgate if there's a malfunction. However, if the breakdown happens too quickly after the hatch is opened the prop rod might not work the way it's supposed to. If someone were in the way of the falling liftgate, they could be hurt. For the repair, dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit to prevent the hatch from closing so quickly. They'll also check the operation of the system afterward.

The affected vehicles, equipped with the power liftgate option, have gas struts that hold the power liftgate up when open. These struts may prematurely wear and the open liftgate may suddenly fall. CONSEQUENCE: If the open liftgate unexpectedly falls, it may strike a person, increasing their risk of injury. REMEDY: GM will notify owners, and dealers will update the software for the power liftgate actuator motor control unit so that the motor will prevent the rapid closing of the lift gate, free of charge. The manufacturer has not yet provided a notification schedule.
2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment
Thu, 07 Nov 2013That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.
