 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!!

Meet Alex Archer, the engineer behind GM's power-sliding center console

Sat, Feb 15 2020

In 2009, a GM manager complained to a 59-year-old GM technician about the hassle of retrieving items from a pickup truck bed after driving shifted the cargo. In two days, the tech had come up with the ideas that, ten years later, would debut as the MultiPro tailgate. The engineering teams kept the tailgate secret in part by hiding mock-ups in a locked storage closet in GM's Vehicle Engineering Center in Warren Michigan for two years. A piece in the Detroit Free Press reveals that another storage closet in Warren would play the same role in a different cloak-and-dagger operation, this time for the power-sliding center console in GM's new full-sized SUVs. During a meeting in early 2017, bosses gave the job of the console's creation to 24-year-old design release engineer Alex Archer, just two years out of Stanford University with a degree in engineering and product design.  This time, the catalyst for the feature was an internal GM think tank called co:lab, where employees suggest ideas. Execs gave Archer the task because "They needed someone willing to ask a lot of questions," her 36-month mandate to produce a six-way console that could be a standard cubby or a gaping maw able to swallow four gallon jugs or hide a secret compartment. Clearly, she succeeded. It took Archer and the team nine months to devise a prototype, another six months to get the green light for production. As with the tailgate, the team working on the console grew to include designers, production engineers, and suppliers. Archer, now 26, shepherded the process, and her name is on the patent. "It took a ton of people, I'm just somebody who stuck with it the whole time," she said. GM like her work well enough to produce the "Day in the Life" segment above, five months before the world would hear about the console. Archer's path to engineering was as unlikely as getting the job for the console. She had entered Stanford with plans to be a doctor. But an innovation class during her freshman year, and a sophomore summer spent helping her grandfather rebuild a 1937 MG engine recharted her course. Her grandfather told her, "You know, you could be an engineer for a car company." Consumer reaction to Archer's work won't be far off, the SUVs slated to hit dealerships soon. Meanwhile, she's busy on something that could be just as intense as the console: Restoring a 1955 Packard Clipper in her garage. Head to Freep to check out the story of Archer and the console.
