1996 Chevrolet Impala Ss Near Perfect Dcm Lt1 Mint 100% Original on 2040-cars
Athens, Tennessee, United States
The car belonged to my neighbor's husband
who passed in February. He bought the car brand new in June of 1997 with
1 mile on it as you can see on the title, and has been the only owner
and driver of the car. He was 83 when he passed so he was either 65 or
66 when he bought it. This car has not been abused. She finally decided
to sell it to me in mid May. The car sat for just over 5 months, so
upon purchase, I had it fully serviced at the local Chevy dealership.
The service included a new battery, radiator flush, oil change, new spark plugs and thorough inspection. The car has 103,000 miles, which include 3 trips to
Vegas from Tennessee and back, and 9 or 10 trips to the Florida Keys from
Tennessee and back. I've driven the car to and from work, which is a 120 mile
trip there and back, several times, for a total of 687 miles since my
purchase. The car runs BEAUTIFULLY. Very quiet, comfortable ride, yet
very strong, and responsive as well. The car is 100% stock other than
the deer and crossflags emblem I added. This is a true SS impala, not a
clone, as can be found on the codes in the trunk. On a scale of 1-10,
the leather is a 10/10, the carpet is 9/10, and the paint is 9.5 of 10,
with no noticeable scratches or dings. Everything on the car works as it
should from heat and ac, locks and windows, EVEN THE CRUISE CONTROL
WORKS ON THIS CAR. The tires are BF GOODRICH GFORCE 255/50/17 which was
stock option when produced. There is approximately 80-85% tread left,
the tires look great all around. No curb rash on the wheels at all. This
car is in unbelievable condition. My description or the pictures do it
no justice! I own a 2011 Camry and a 2010 Silverado, and neither are as
clean as this Impala. It's truly remarkable, and unbelievable the
pampering and care this car has received. I've seen numerous b-body's,
even some with under 30,000 miles, but this is the cleanest, purest SS
I've EVER seen!
BAD: The
car sat for over 5 months in a detached garage after the owner's
passing. Squirrels nested under the hood and scratched the insulation
under the hood. (Pics below) The
odometer fades in and out which is common for these vehicles. You
cannot see the mileage during the day, but it does fade in and out, and
is visible at night time. There are 2 plastic knob covers missing from the factory radio adjustments. You can still adjust the bass and treble without the covers.The rear driver window rolls up and down, but does come off track momentarily. Please feel free to message me your number for videos and any more pics you may want... Also, do not hesitate to ask any questions you may have about the vehicle, as I know it's entire history, and have seen the service records dating back to 2002. I have 100% positive feedback, so please bid with confidence, as you can assure that I am an honest seller, that has yet to disappoint a customer. Thanks for stopping by and God Bless you all!! |

Some 2012-13 Chevy Volts may not have enough battery coolant
Mon, Jun 23 2014The 2012 and 2013 model year Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in vehicle may have a battery glitch caused by low coolant levels. No recall has been issued and General Motors is taking care of the issue at no cost to drivers. Some of the affected Volts may have lower-than-advisable coolant levels because of some pesky air pockets in the car's cooling circuit. When the coolant levels get too low, the charging system for the battery powering the car's onboard generator (i.e. the Rechargeable Energy Storage System, or the RESS) may be shut down, turning one's Volt into a run-of-the-mill gas-powered car, and a pricey one at that. The Car Connection says GM is advising owners of the '12 and '13 Volts to contact their local Chevy dealer for a free fix. GM representatives didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from AutoblogGreen for more details. We believe this is a separate issue than the one that brought 8,000 Volts back to the dealers for a battery coolant fix, what GM called a "voluntary customer satisfaction effort," a few years ago. General Motors sold 23,094 Chevy Volts last year after selling 23,461 Volts in 2012, so that fix-it list may get fairly lengthy. Check out a GM-Volt.com user thread related to this issue here. *UPDATE: Chevrolet spokesman Randy Fox confirmed in an e-mail to AutoblogGreen that the company issued a service bulletin to dealers that they may need to top off coolant levels on certain Volts because of the issue, and that the vehicle will "return to normal charging operation" once that's done.
2014 Chevy Silverado priced from *$24,585, V8 gets better economy than Ford EcoBoost V6
Mon, 01 Apr 2013Chevrolet has thrown down the next hand in the pickup truck poker wars and revealed at least a couple of potential aces - depending on which numbers matter most to you. The 2014 2014 Silverado 1500 with its 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 gets 335 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque, is mated to a six-speed automatic, can tow 11,500 pounds with the optional Max Trailer Package and costs the same as the outgoing Silverado, $24,585 (*including $995 destination fee). Chevy says the Silverado also stands atop the fuel economy charts when comparing any competitor with a V8 engine - and some competitors with V6 engines. The two-wheel drive model returns 16 miles per gallon city, 23 mpg highway, 19 mpg combined in two-wheel drive guise and 16 mpg city, 22 mpg highway and 18 mpg combined as a four-wheel drive.
For context around those numbers, the most fuel efficient V8-powered 2013 Ford F-150 pickups lose about two mpg in every metric compared to the Silverado, the 3.5-liter V6 EcoBoost returning 16 city, 18 highway and 22 combined in two-wheel drive. However, that EcoBoost does have 365 hp and 420 lb-ft of torque. You can get a Ram 1500 with a 3.6-liter V6 that gets 25 mpg highway, but it has 305 hp and 269 lb-ft of torque. The 2013 Ram with the 5.7-liter Hemi V8 and its 395 hp and 407 lb-ft drops one mpg in every category to the Silverado. Its tow rating is 200 pounds beyond its nearest competitor, the F-150 with the Max Trailer Tow Package.
Elsewhere, the new Silverado gets a quieter cab with a redesigned interior, a new bed with improved load-management possibilities, disc brakes all around, tweaked steering and suspension, along with free standard scheduled maintenance for two years or 24,000 miles.
Artist imagines eerie world where cars have no wheels
Thu, 24 Jan 2013The wheel ranks right up there with the telescope and four-slice toaster in the pantheon of inventions that have moved humankind forward. But what if a circle in three dimensions had never occurred to anyone, and we all had just moved on without it? Perhaps we'd be driving around in Lucas Motors Landspeeders with anti-gravity engines. Or maybe we'd have the same cars we do today, just without wheels.
That's the thought experiment that seems to have led French photographer Renaud Marion to create his six-image series called Air Drive. The shots depict cars throughout many eras of motoring that look normal except for one thing: they have no wheels. The models used include a Jaguar XK120, Cadillac DeVille (shown above), Chevrolet El Camino and Camaro, and Mercedes-Benz SL and 300 roadsters.
Perhaps one day when our future becomes our past, you'll be able to walk the street and see with your own eyes the rust and patina of age on our nation's fleet of floating cars. Until then, Monsieur Marion's photographs will have to do.
