Selling my 1966 Impala Super Sport. This car has 66,465 original miles at present. I purchased this car in 2005 from the nephew of the original owners who inherited it at their passing.It has always been kept under cover(garage or pole barn). This SS has the numbers matching 327 v-8 and powerglide transmission. She runs exceptionally well with no problems. This was an all original,down to the date coded spark plug wires car when I bought it. Originally Irmine white exterior, I did have it painted 2005GM Arrival Blue metallic after stripping her down to bare metal.All moldings and emblems were removed before painting.There was never any rust or damage to the body.She sports all the original sheetmetal in place where the factory installed it. The interior is ALL original with the exception of the under dash CD unit. The only places of concern inside are the bottoms of the bucket seats have seam splits,(They are 47 years old after all)and a couple of cracks in the original dash pad. Everything else is in great shape for the age. There is still one build sheet under the carpet and I have another one from under the rear seat.Everything inside works including the seat belt retractors and the clock will run if the car is driven regularly and often.Even the peddle rubber and chrome show little wear. I have added a few modern upgrades to make her more driver friendly and safer however I kept every original piece I removed.They will of course go with the car. The center console has the original carpet in place along with the console light.Some of the upgrades include power(front disc) brakes,HEI distributor and plug wires,dual exhaust and mufflers(I did not keep the old exhaust),Edlebrock 600 CFM carb.,new fuel pump,radiator and air shocks.I installed a set of old style slots wrapped in BFGoodrich Radial T/As.(I have the original steel wheels and SS wheel covers).I also had many new front suspension parts installed(bushings and the like). The car has all original glass and even the original trunk spatter paint and trunk light. I really do like and enjoy this SS and the fact that it was never abused,wrecked or neglected. That said I believe I have put less than 3,000 miles on her since '05 and I hate to see her sit. So if you're looking for a really nice turn key Impala SS, that you can drive as is or add you own flavor to,I don't think you'll find one nicer for the money. In picture #3,youll see a reflection off the driveway at the door bottom. There is nothing wrong with the doors paint.I'm not looking to make a killing on her but I'm not going to give her away either. Check the price books and NADA listing. I can't part with her for less than $15,000 and I feel she's a deal at that price.So bid with confidence and bid only if you mean it. No scammers and no 0% feedbacks w/o contacting me first.Shipping is up to buyer but I will be available to help with loading.I reserve the right to end this auction at anytime. Thanks for looking.

GM recalls full-size truck, SUVs and vans over faulty shifter mechanism
Mon, 07 Jan 2013Twelve different General Motors vehicles from the 2013 model year, up to 54,686 units in total, are being recalled over two potential issues with their steering columns. The models in question, all full-size trucks, SUVs or vans, are the: Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT, Chevrolet Avalanche, Express, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and GMC Savana, Sierra, Yukon and Yukon XL.
The affected vehicles were built with a fractured parking lock cable or "a malformed steering column lock actuator gear in the lock module assembly." As a consequence, they could shift out of park without the brake pedal being applied or with the key removed or in the off position.
A bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration indicates that the recall should begin on January 17. GM will notify owners, at which time they can take their vehicles to their dealers for repair free of charge. Have a look at the bulletin below for more information.
Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off
Fri, Nov 21 2014Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.

2014 Corvette Stingray meets Tesla Model S in drag strip showdown
Wed, Jan 29 2014They come from two different worlds and have little in common. The Tesla Model S P85 is the sportiest version of this paradigm-punching sedan from California, while the 2014 Corvette Stingray Z51 is a performance-enhanced version of Michigan's recently-updated sports car stalwart. The West Coast car seats five adults and eats electrons like Popeye eats spinach, the Easterner has two passenger places and, surprisingly, sips gasoline like one might bourbon. An attribute they do happen to share is extreme quickness. This similarity is all the excuse Drag Times needed to set the vehicles beside each other at the Palm Beach International Raceway for a bit of mano-a-mano quarter-mile combat. Fortunately enough, cameras were rolling for each of two bouts down the blacktop and the results recorded for our edification and enlightenment. The winner? We won't spoil it for you, but let's just say it's really, really close. How close? Scroll below and watch the video for yourself. Just be warned, the results may surprise you.
