1969 Chevrolet Impala 327ci, 350 Turbo, Candy Brandy Wine Paint, New Chrome Look on 2040-cars
Union City, California, United States
|
1969 Chevrolet Impala 327ci, 350 turbo, Candy brandy wine paint, Rally rims, and stereo system. This Impala runs perfect. Rebuilt about 10,000 miles ago. It has Edelbrock carb, Edelbrock performer intake, Headers, Bored .30 over, Mild cam, Dual exhaust, and Cherrybomb mufflers. Sounds very nice with a almost unnoticeable hop from the cam. Gets great gas mileage for what it is. 18-20 mpg. Cruises down the freeway as smooth as my Lincoln Towncar. Has A/C but not hooked up. Absolutely no disappointments in the engine compartment. The interior is very nice for a driver. Impala logo stitching in all four headrests. Headliner is perfect. Very clean, and neat. Dash is in great shape. For show, I would get a new dash pad, back speaker grill covers, a little bit of my own elbow gresse to fit and tuck the passenger rear panel (no rips or tears just needs a fixing), and a good detail. All gauges work. Added oil pressure (oil pressure sits pretty at idle), voltage meter, and water temperature. Truck, Floor, and inner fenders sheet metal is perfect with no rust or rot. I personally would change the steering wheel. The exterior paint is in driver condition. Not show, not horrible. Car gets a little more attention than I like. The body is completely straight, I mean laser straight. Except one ding on the passenger door that is unnoticeable without a second look. About the size of a dime. There's a few bubbles in the paint if you stand up close you can see them in the corners. Color matched rally rims with chrome beauty rings. Lowered all around. Sits nice, and low. Chrome was redone shines better than new. Fill the gas tank under the rear licenses plate. I've done my best to describe the car. If I think of anything to add I will. If you have any questions Email, or call me. I will answer all questions. I will send a video of the car running to interested party's. The car is for sale locally. I could end the auction at anytime. A lot of people want the car but, haven't showed me the cash. CHARLES 1-510-938-9001 (8:00am to 10:00pm Pacific time) On Apr-08-14 at 19:30:44 PDT, seller added the following information: I keep getting text messages that go no where. Please do not text me. I will answer all questions by Email, or call. Here's the answer to the questions I keep being asked. The paint is good for a driver car. If you are looking to show & shine the car I would paint it. The body is straight so a paint job should be really cheap. A family friend of ours told me he would paint it a solid color for me for $2200.oo. That's work, and paint included. He does exceptional work. I've added pictures of the headliner, bottom of car, trunk, firewall, and front of engine looking down. This car is an older restoration which is SOLID. Again, the A/C is not connected. The original stereo is there but, not connected. There is a after market deck, tweets, 5.25 rears, and two 12 subs in the trunk. Sounds good in the cab, not going to turn heads a quarter mile down the street. The bottom of the car looks to be redone at some time, very clean. No sun visors, the rest of the interior is complete. The trunk has been carpeted, its huge and the floor is solid (like brand new solid). This car will not disappoint. |

Junkyard Gem: 1980 Chevrolet LUV Mikado
Sat, Oct 9 2021During the 1970s and into the 1980s, each member of the Detroit Big Three imported Japanese small pickups and sold them with Ford (Mazda Proceed), Dodge/Plymouth (Mitsubishi Forte), or Chevrolet (Isuzu Faster) badges here. Ford developed the Ranger and killed the Courier for 1983 (though Americans could still buy the Mazda-badged version all the way through 1993), while The General axed the LUV after the S-10 debuted in the 1982 model year. Isuzu sold the same truck as the P'up through 1987, though, and we might as well follow up our recent P'up Junkyard Gem with its LUV predecessor. LUV stood for Light Utility Vehicle, and I've managed to spot a handful in the boneyards over the years. This one now resides in a yard in northeastern Colorado. The Mikado trim package included striped seat upholstery and a sporty steering wheel, plus these cool dash badges. As far as I can tell, no LUV Mikado advertising featured any Gilbert and Sullivan tunes. This one is fairly rusty for Front Range Colorado, and it has endured a bed swap from some other small truck. The engine is the 75-horse Isuzu 1.8-liter. Members of this engine family went into everything from Chevy Chevettes to Isuzu Troopers in the United States. Very unusually for a small pickup during the Malaise Era, this one has a luxurious automatic transmission. Acceleration must have been a leisurely affair in this truck. Air conditioning? Unheard of! Someone stuck every one of their lunchtime apple stickers on the driver's door. After 41 years of work, this truck is done. Come on strong in a LUV of your own!
GM isn't liable for punitive damages in ignition switch cases
Wed, Nov 20 2019NEW YORK — A federal appeals court said General Motors is not liable for punitive damages over accidents that occurred after its 2009 bankruptcy and involved vehicles it produced earlier, including vehicles with faulty ignition switches. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan said on Tuesday that the automaker did not agree to contractually assume liability for punitive damages as part of its federally-backed Chapter 11 reorganization. GM filed for bankruptcy in June 2009, and its best assets were transferred to a new Detroit-based company with the same name. The other assets and many liabilities stayed with "Old GM," which is also known as Motors Liquidation Co. Tuesday's 3-0 decision may help GM reduce its ultimate exposure in nationwide litigation over defective ignition switches in several Chevrolet, Pontiac and Saturn models. It is also a defeat for drivers involved in post-bankruptcy accidents, including those who collided with older GM vehicles driven by others, as well as their law firms. The ignition switch defect could cause engine stalls and keep airbags from deploying, and has been linked to 124 deaths. A lawyer for the drivers and their law firms did not immediately respond to requests for comment. GM had no comment. Circuit Judge Dennis Jacobs said GM's agreement to acquire assets "free and clear" of most liabilities excused it from punitive damages claims for Old GM's conduct. He also noted that the judge who oversaw the bankruptcy concluded that the new company could not be liable for claims that the "deeply insolvent" Old GM would never have paid. The decision upheld a May 2018 ruling by U.S. District Judge Jesse Furman in Manhattan, who oversees the ignition switch litigation. Drivers have sought a variety of damages in that litigation, including for declining resale values. GM has recalled more than 2.6 million vehicles since 2014 over ignition switch problems. It has also paid more than $2.6 billion in related penalties and settlements, including $900 million to settle a U.S. Department of Justice criminal case. The case is In re: Motors Liquidation Co, 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, No. 18-1940. Government/Legal Chevrolet Pontiac Saturn Safety gm ignition switch
Chevy to show redesigned Captiva in Geneva, will it come to US rental lots?
Wed, 27 Feb 2013Unless you're renting a car or driving through Orlando, Florida (the rental car capital of the US), you'll probably never see a Chevrolet Captiva - the rebadged, fleet-only version of the old Saturn Vue - on our roads, but this crossover is popular in many other parts of the world. As such, Chevrolet announced that the Captiva will be getting an update for 2013, which will be unveiled next week at the Geneva Motor Show.
Coming off a pretty extensive refresh in 2011, the 2013 model year will bring even more changes to the Captiva like LED taillights, new 18-inch wheels and revised fascias with a new grille and fog lights up front and inset chrome exhaust outlets at the rear. New interior features include heated rear seats, dual-zone climate control as well as available options on some of the upper trim levels such as leather seating and keyless entry and start. We have yet to hear back from Chevrolet as to whether or not the updated Captiva will be making its way to a rental lot near you, as the model is only available in the US to fleet buyers.
Alongside the updated Captiva, Chevy is also showing off its new Trax in Europe, where the subcompact crossover will go on sale this spring. GM's press release for these two Geneva-bound models is posted below.
