For sale is a 1966 Chevrolet Impala SS 427 convertible. This was the first year for the 427. It is a rare original
car with original build sheet, currently has 28,417 miles. The car was stored since 1980 until I bought it in 2007,
with 21,810 miles on it.
The car was stored in a garage for 27 years when I put it back on the road. It has not been restored. I did not
have any paint work or chroming done. Just lots of cleaning and polishing. I wanted to present the car the way it
was. The top was replaced about 2 years ago.
To get it back on the road the following was done: New gas tank and sending unit, new stainless fuel and brake
lines. The entire brake system was done, car still has 4 wheel drum non-power brakes. Radiator was sent out to be
flushed and cleaned, belts, hoses, water pump, fuel pump where replaced. Rebuilt carb and tuned it up. Before
engine was started, cylinders were oiled, engine was tuned by hand and oil pump was primed, not just gas and a
battery. New exhaust with turbo mufflers. The entire front end was rebuilt after about 1000 miles, which included
ball joints, control arm bushings, inner/outer tie rod ends, etc. The car has been PA inspected every year and
currently is. Have put nearly 7,000 miles on it with no issues.
The car is a nice for car cruises, but not a show car. It is is very solid, including frame and floors. It does
have a few rust spots, one at bottom of each quarter panel and the other is inside the trunk lid. Please see the
pictures I have included. The under side is very solid, but in driver condition. The car looks to have been
repainted at some point in time prior to 1980. The paint still shows well, but does have some dings, crazing, etc.
It is a factory black car. The interior is completely original and in very nice condition.
The options include SS package, power windows and top, gauge package, factory four speaker stereo with center
console controls, automatic, 4 way flashers, and the 390 hp 427. See attached picture of build sheet. Please
contact me for any additional photos or info. Thanks for looking.

Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
Safety group pans GM’s new Marketplace in-dash shopping
Wed, Dec 6 2017When it comes to our cars, is the Internet of Things a godsend? Or a hidden menace that will create more problems than it will solve? On the same day General Motors announced it will equip newer-model cars with its in-dash Marketplace e-commerce app, a prominent safety group was shooting it down. National Safety Council President Deborah Hersman tells Bloomberg the technology will only contribute to distracted driving and hurt efforts to stem the tide of rising auto fatalities, which grew 5.6 percent to more than 37,000 in the U.S. in 2016. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says distracted driving was responsible for 3,477 fatalities and 391,000 injuries in 2015, the most recent year for which it has data. "There's nothing about this that's safe," Hersman told Bloomberg. "If this is why they want WiFi in the car, we're going to see fatality numbers go up even higher than they are now." Marketplace, developed with IBM, will allow drivers — or more often, one hopes, their passengers — to order coffee or food, find gas stations and reserve hotel rooms from their dashboard screens. The technology is set to be uploaded automatically to nearly 1.9 million GM vehicles model-year 2017 and later that are equipped with WiFi hotspots and compatible systems. By the end of 2018, about 4 million Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac vehicles will be equipped with Marketplace. The app will debut with a limited number of participating retailers, including TGI Fridays, Shell, Exxon Mobil and Starbucks, with more likely to join later. Online retail giant Amazon is also partnering with automakers such as Ford to bring e-commerce capabilities inside the car through its Alexa personal assistant. While convenience is nice, one other thing is becoming clear as the IoT wedges its way into our cars: It's taking aim at some decidedly first-world problems.Related Video: Image Credit: GM Buick Cadillac Chevrolet GM GMC Technology Infotainment in-car entertainment marketplace e-commerce
