Impala SS427 Convertible - #s
matching! Runs. Documented: This car needs some loving!
I have had it for many years and
do not have any plan to restore it so its needs a new home. It deserves to be restored because it’s a genuine
original SS427 with a running original numbers matching engine and pedigree
documentation. Although the frame is pretty solid, the body is VERY rusty. I have this for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime. Low reserve at less than value of parts. History and Data: Purchased May 25 1968 at Hunter Weidner Chevrolet Inc in
Anderson Indiana. Original purchase price was $4898.02. Spent early days in Anderson,
followed by Colorado, Tennessee, then Texas and now is located on Vancouver

track, PS, PB, tach and gauges with correct 5500 rpm redline, tilt steering,
bumper guards, fender lamps, front seat outer passenger’s shoulder belts. Special Note: If you are wondering why the car has a bench seat - do some research. This is a legitimate and original bench seat car
with SS427. This means the car was
ordered new with the SS427 option (RPO Z24), but the Super Sport option, (RPO Z03) was NOT ordered. The SS427 option alone did not include
buckets. The Good: Numbers matching original 385hp

This filmstrip shows the happy new owner of the SS427 in late summer 1968 driving around in his home town in Indiana. The film also has personal footage and as such I feel it is respectful to ensure he approves that this film can go to the next owner. This is not such a bad thing as the purchaser will get a chance to talk to the original owner of this car. Apparently, the gentleman was having his Corvair serviced and while waiting he wandered around the dealership and found this SS427 on the show room floor and fell in love with the car.

Veyron and C7 Corvette join cast of Transformers 4
Wed, 29 May 2013Like the Fast & Furious franchise, the Michael Bay-directed series of Transformers movies has become known as much for its bad acting as its impressive lineup of cars. As filming just started for Transformers 4, Bay's website has confirmed two new cars for the next installment as well as a makeover for everyone's favorite tractor trailer hero, Optimus Prime.
Joining the cast of T4 are a "race-inspired" Chevrolet Corvette Stingray and a Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse. While Bay's website did not supply names for either car, Bugatti is reporting on its Facebook page that the Veyron will join the Autobots. Speaking of the good guys, top Autobot Optimus Prime is getting an all-new body based on a Western Star with a gaudy appearance that was seemingly inspired by Trick My Truck - right down to the six smoke stacks and side pipes!
Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.
GMC Canyon, Chevy Colorado diesels finally heading to dealers
Fri, Jan 1 2016Customers who have been waiting to receive their diesel-powered Chevrolet Colorados and GMC Canyons should be relived to hear that GM will finally start to ship them out of the Wentzville Assembly Plant. "The highly anticipated 2016 GMC Canyon diesel has begun shipping to dealers," a company spokesperson confirmed to The Detroit News. The trucks originally had a fall launch date, but a final review forced a delay in deliveries. The 2.8-liter four-cylinder diesel in the midsize trucks produces 181 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque, and the company touts the engine's low emissions. The Environmental Protection Agency and California Air Resources Board even put the mill through extra scrutiny with a real world test in the wake of VW's diesel scandal, and the Duramax passed with no problems. At that time, a Chevy spokesperson told Autoblog that the models' launch was on track. The Duramax engine adds $3,730 to the price of a comparable V6 model, but they're the most fuel-efficient pickups on the market. The EPA estimates the twins at 31 miles per gallon highway, 22 mpg city, and 25 mpg combined in two-wheel drive form and 29/20/23 with four-wheel drive. Buyers likely can't wait to finally experience these pickups after reading a heap of positive reviews. The Colorado diesel recently earned Motor Trend's Truck of the Year award. We also came away impressed with it during our First Drive and liked the Canyon during our Quick Spin. Related Video:
