Your viewing a three owner, California Black Plate, 40,000 orig mile, 1959 Chevrolet Impala 2 DR Hardtop Sport Coupe dressed in Code 925A Sport Cream with Green interior. It was in California till approx 1994, then sold to a collector in Colorado and remained there until June of 2014. Was in his collection for the last 17 years. Barely driven and always stored in a dry climate controlled garage throughout his ownership. 

It is an all original survivor with the exception of one repaint. It is an older repaint but very high quality and driver quality. The car is arrow straight and all body gaps line up perfectly. Has some touch ups from driving over the years but it shines and shows great for any show you enter it in. It's great from 1 feet, 20 feet or 20 yards away. It is that nice. Every single thing on the car works. It has a new muffler, brakes, starter, fuel sender, and fuel pump. The car runs down the road at 75 MPH like a dream. The engine runs like a Swiss watch and is whisper quiet. The tranny shifts like butter. It has manual brakes and steering. It currently has the wide white bias belt tires on it. They are in decent shape but are aged. A set of Coker Classic wide white radials would be a nice upgrade for drive ability, however the car drives phenomenal now. 

The interior is all original from the carpet to the headliner. The dashboard is mint. All the gauges work as well as the lights, signals, wipers, and heater.  Please look at the pictures in the ad and the attached link. The headliner, visors,  door panels, seats, and package shelf all in amazing shape. 

The under carriage is super clean and rust free. It was undercoated from the dealer and looks amazing. The trunk is all original super solid. It has all the factory paint and primer still in tact. Original cardboard and spare tire and wheel. The trunk mat was replaced but orig comes with car. When you pop the trunk it likes like a time capsule and shows great. There is a bit of surface rust under the mat but I left it there to show the honesty of how original the car truly is. In no way is the trunk rusty. The floor is rock solid. Only cosmetics are needed if you want to detail it out. 

More PICS available upon request through photobucket.

2014 Chevrolet Impala [w/video]

Fri, 15 Mar 2013

Can A Fleet Queen Become a Fullsize King?
On paper, the Chevrolet Impala is a pretty strong seller, posting annual sales that have hovered right around 170,000 units for the last two years, but it only takes one trip to practically any rental car agency to discover where the majority of those sales have come from. In fact, General Motors told Autoblog that a full 70 percent of Impala sales last year went to fleet companies for things like rental cars and government vehicles. Logic tells us that this is neither good for resale values nor name equity, so Chevrolet is getting ready to roll out an all-new Impala with improved comfort, styling and technology, hoping to turn the tables on its retail-to-fleet ratio.
Chevrolet's sedans have come on quite strong in the last few months with the introduction of the Cruze diesel and the SS sedan, but while these will likely be low-volume sellers, there's more pressure for the new Impala to perform well as GM looks to slash fleet sales and compete with the wide variety of full-size sub-luxury sedans. Riding on a platform shared with the Buick LaCrosse and Cadillac XTS, the 2014 Impala will compete against the Hyundai Azera, Ford Taurus and Toyota Avalon on the more traditional side, while also looking to take a bite out of somewhat sportier models like the Chrysler 300/Dodge Charger twins and the Nissan Maxima. We headed to sunny San Diego to see if this totally new Impala can stand on its own without the assistance of fleet companies and rental agencies. [w/video

Recharge Wrap-up: Detroit Electric teaser video, Nissan Leaf is Good Housekeeping "Tried and Tested"

Mon, Oct 20 2014

Detroit Electric has a new teaser video and has updated its brand in preparation of the introduction of the SP:01. The refreshed logo uses a blue and white color palette, and the company has also given its website a new look. The teaser video, which gives a sneak peek at the exterior of the SP:01, shows the car taking form in the midst of an electrical storm. Watch the video or learn more in the press release below. Abengoa is celebrating the grand opening of a commercial scale cellulosic ethanol plant in Hugoton, KS. When running at full scale, the refinery will produce up to 25 million gallons of ethanol a year. The plant will also generate enough electricity to power itself and put some back into the grid. Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz was on hand for the dedication, saying, "Every gallon of cellulosic ethanol produced and used to fuel our vehicles reduces the impact of harmful greenhouse gas emissions by greater than 60 percent as compared to conventional gasoline." Learn more at Energy.gov. Good Housekeeping has named the Nissan Leaf one of its "Tried and Tested" vehicles. The magazine called the Leaf SL its top "Roomy Electric" vehicle in its November issue. The magazine's research institute evaluated the EV based on track and road driving, ergonomics and convenience features. Good Housekeeping made note of the car's "impressive" range, but according to Nissan's Fred Diaz, "the real beauty of the Nissan Leaf is that it's roomy and, best of all, fun to drive." Read more in the press release below. Quasar Energy Group produces compressed natural gas from sewage and garbage. It uses things like grains leftover from brewing Budweiser, food waste from a baseball stadium and sewage sludge to produce the gas through anaerobic digestion. The compressed gas can then be used to power cars like Chevrolet's Bi-fuel Impala, which goes on sale later this year. Chevrolet likens the situation to the Delorean time machine in the Back To The Future movie series, which uses garbage to fuel its fusion generator.

Hot Wheels Camaro to make big debut at Indy

Fri, 05 Apr 2013

Chevrolet handed over the keys to 33 Hot Wheels Camaro Convertible Indianapolis 500 festival cars this week. Race directors get the luxury of driving the droptops around Indianapolis in an ongoing tradition with roots all the way back to the 1960s. The stunt is supposed to remind area residents that the Indy 500 is right around the corner. The cars are our first look at the special Camaro Hot Wheels Edition in convertible form, and they are slated to head to dealers after a one-time production run. The cars also represent the first time in history full-size Hot Wheels have been offered for sale by an automaker.
The cars will be available in both the previously seen coupe bodystyle and this convertible configuration, and will feature metallic blue paint and special wheels with the iconic redline accent. Buyers will be able to choose between the V6-powered 2LT trim and the V8-powered 2SS guise.
Hot Wheels says the original Custom Camaro toy was one of the original 16 1:64-scale diecasts, and it remains one of the company's most valuable collector items today.
