1966 Impala SS

This is a true Super Sport (see vin plate in picture to verify) and is the perfect car whether you are looking for an easy restoration project or just a weekend cruiser that will turn heads. You will not find a better Impala to restore or even for a quick flip! These cars are rare and one in this condition is all but impossible to find and only has 82K original miles. This beast drives great, has power steering, has NO rust anywhere and body is straight. The previous owner put it on a lift so I could look at the undercarriage and I tried my hardest to find rust and simply couldn’t as it was ordered with a factory undercoat that really did it’s job and was always garage kept. The only thing that wasn’t coated and did rust was the trunk pan and it was cut out and professionally replaced by the previous owner. It currently sits with the original 283 motor with a Edelbrock intake manifold and dual 4 barrel carb it also has a custom stainless dual exhaust. It runs great and I have driven it on several 2 hour trips with no worries.

The seats, carpets, and vinyl top have all been professionally restored to factory original just a few days ago so the interior is 85% completely restored.  All the electric windows work flawlessly but the switch on the passenger side does need to be replaced.

Issues:

Driver side brake light out. I replaced the bulb and the blinkers don’t work so it’s an electrical issue but with these cars that’s an easy fix.

Rubber window and door seals need to be replaced.

There is a small ding in the front grill but my body guy says he could easily work it out and replacement isn’t necessary, see attached picture.

The interior other than floors and seats does need restoration. Lots of the chrome inside can be restored but some does need replacing. Everything is functional but some work and cash is needed to get everything showroom perfect.

The motor runs great but there is a small oil leak and if I were going to keep it I would rebuild the engine and paint it and clean up the engine compartment just to make everything look pretty.

There are some trim pieces that need replacing and other minor cosmetic work but overall this car is in unbelievable condition. 

The only reason I am getting rid of this car is that I had bought this car because it was too good to pass up and did plan on restoring it but I just found the car I really want to restore for sale and  want to get the money out of this so I can buy that.

Vin number shows that this is a true Super Sport.

The average price for this car is $19,834.  We are selling this one for well below that for an above average car.

Recharge Wrap-up: Lexus CT 200h is NWAPA's favorite hybrid, 'No Charge to Charge' in LA

Thu, Jul 24 2014

The Northwest Automotive Press Association (NWAPA) has given the Lexus CT 200h its Favorite Hybrid title. It named the compact luxury hybrid its favorite of 2014 at its Drive Revolution in Portland (where it also named the new Volkswagen Golf TDI the Northwest Green Car of the Year). According to NWAPA president Nik Miles, the CT 200h earned the honor for "impressive combination of state-of-the-art small car luxury and hybrid technology." For 2014, the Lexus CT200h got an updated front end, including the spindle grille we've been seeing on new Lexus vehicles, plus a redesigned steering wheel and sliding sun visors. Read more in the press release below. Chevrolet credits the Malibu for helping make stop-start mainstream. Chevrolet started including stop-start technology standard in Malibus equipped with the four-cylinder engine. Chevy has sold about 83,000 of that model, so 97 percent of 2014 and 2015 Malibu sales include stop-start. Now, that technology has made its way into the 2015 Impala. With drivers idling an average of 16 minutes a day, stop-start can significantly reduce harmful emissions and save fuel. According to Navigant Research, we can expect annual sales of cars equipped with stop-start technology to surpass 55 million by 2022. Read more in the press release below. Nissan Leaf customers in Los Angeles will get access to free charging beginning August 15. Nissan is extending its "No Charge to Charge" promotion to LA, which will allow customers to charge at public charging stations at no cost. Leaf customers - including those who bought or leased their car from the participating dealerships on or after July 1 - will get an EZ-Charge card, allowing them to use ChargePoint, Blink, CarCharging, AeroVironment and NRG eVgo chargers for free. Rapid chargers can charge the Leaf's battery to 80 percent in 30 minutes. Nissan plans to offer the "No Charge to Charge" in at least 14 more markets in the US, bringing the total to 25, within the next year. See the press release below for more details. California will get six all-electric school buses for three school districts as part of a demonstration program. The California Energy Commission awarded a grant of $1.4 million for the program to National Strategies LLC; this is in addition to a $2.2-million grant from the South Coast Air Quality Management District. The EV buses use vehicle-to-grid technology, allowing them to sell energy back to the grid when it is needed.

MotorWeek looks back at 1995 Chevy Tahoe, GMC Yukon

Sat, Jun 20 2015

MotorWeek's Retro Review series gives us a nostalgic look back at some of the best sports cars and luxury sedans available in the 1980s and '90s. For its latest clip, the show shifts gears to remember the 1995 Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon. Similar to the success of crossovers today, SUVs were tallying big sales and making big money for automakers in the mid-'90s. The Tahoe and Yukon filled slots in the market as steps down from the larger Suburban. These twins weren't wanting for space, though, with plenty of room to haul around a family. MotorWeek came away generally impressed too, and called the models some "of the better riding sport utilities we've ever experienced." This review comes with some jazzy, electric guitar licks to enjoy in the background.

Next-gen Chevy Volt will get 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine

Tue, Oct 28 2014

As General Motors gets ready to unveil the new Chevy Volt at the Detroit Auto Show in January, it's starting to reveal a few more details about the updated plug-in hybrid. Today should be fruitful on that front, thanks to an event GM is hosting today that focuses on the new Volt, and we've just had the first bit of new: a bigger engine is coming. Since the beginning, the Volt has used a 1.4-liter, four-cylinder engine as a range extender when the battery runs dry. The second-generation model will instead get a slightly larger 1.5-liter, four-cylinder engine that will be built in Flint, MI. That's a step up from the various engines that have been a part of the 2016 Volt's rumored mills, everything from a 1.0-liter or 1.2-liter three-cylinder to a 2.0-liter turbo. The confirmation about the new 1.5-liter powerplant was found in Automotive News, where we also heard again that GM is going to start building the new Volt's electric drive unit in Detroit, moving production up from Mexico. We will have more information on the 2016 Chevy Volt later today.
