RELISTED DUE TO NON-PAYING BIDDER, SO EVERYONE GETS ANOTHER CHANCE BEFORE LOCAL AUCTION DATE, WHICH IS RAPIDLY APPROACHING. It will only be listed on ebay until that date. There was 135 watchers last time and I keep getting emails if I still have it, so I decided to go ahead and give everyone that is seriously interested a chance to own it before it goes in estate auction. Not hard to replace a quarter guys and look at what the finished ones cost! Average of 40K! This is a 59 Impala 2 door htp. It was side swiped on the drivers side in the early 70's and has been in storage since. A much more solid car, with all original GM parts, than some that have been going for 10-15K recently, just because they have a coat of primer or a set of nice wheels on them. You can see them in completed listings. Nothing is hidden here. You will need floor pans and left lower qtr sections. Do it yourself and do it right by your standards. It takes 6 bolts and about 30 minutes to change and line up a door and less than a day to cut off a qtr and get the other one lined up and tacked in place. Probably a lot less time than cutting out and redoing some of the bad body work I've seen lately(cars with the inner fender front section cut off-leaving  you nothing to fasten parking light housings to, homemade fender extensions-making it impossible to fasten the correct front Z- bracket to the bumper and front valance, doors off of a 2 dr sedan with top frame cut off, new floors, but with braces missing or no gas tank braces and on and on. Just be careful and look closely at what you are buying. If there are any other pics of my car you would like to see, let me know and I will get what is possible, but I assure you this car has never been messed with or modified in any way except for the reapint many years ago and having the wrong steering wheel on it. Also, before I forgot to mention, this car is NOT rotted out around the rear window corners or all along the fin edge. Original white 936A car with turquoise interior. Was a 6cyl/3 speed car, but has no motor or trans in it now. The interior is all there with the exception of the front door panels. There is a replacement door and upper quarter half(with door jamb and inner panel) that comes with it. It will still need lower qtr sections on drivers side. I also have gathered a complete set of drivers side trim that is nice and restorable. These pieces all come with the car, but like I said, you will need to purchase left lower qtrs. The floors and trunk floor will need replaced, as they all do, as you can see in the pics. You may also need to do some work to the left wheel tub, although it doesn't look too bad and did not even get into the window post, or it probably would have broken the rear glass. This is definitely a buildable car as hard as these are to find and the prices they bring. Not for the faint at heart, but very much repairable. The frame looks to be solid in all of the common rot areas. It may need some minor repair in the very rear corners to the gussets. The car rolls and steers easy and tires hold air for easy loading. I also have a tractor to assist. Overseas bidders are welcome, however a tractor/trailer cannot get in my private road, so in the past I have loaded the car on my trailer and met the transport at an agreed on local site. I have no problem doing this for you , as I have done for several over the years. The car is sold as-is where-is and will not leave the property until all funds have cleared my bank account. Immediate deposit required with buy now options, otherwise deposit in 24 hrs and full payment expected in 7 days with 500.00 deposit at end of auction. Buyer is responsible for all shipping cost and arrangements(allow for extra qtr panel unless you want me to cut the lower rusty section off and stick it through the rear seat opening). The car can set here for up to 30 days after auction ends. The car comes with a clear title in my name. It does say correction at the top because instead of E59"S", they printed E59"5" when I bought the car and I had to take it back in and get it corrected. So now, it is 100% clear and correct and once you title it in your name it will come back saying original like always. It is NOT a salvage title. I got a lot of questions about the steering wheel. What is on it(the 65), is what was on it when I got it years ago, however I have the correct wheel, but it will need restored and it does come with the car. Thanks for looking!


 

DUE TO SOME REQUEST, I HAVE ADDED PICS OF THE THE FRONT TIP OF THE INNER FENDER WHERE THE PARKING LIGHT HOUSING MOUNTS. ADDED A PIC OF WHAT THE LOWER FENDER EXTENSIONS LOOK LIKE (WHICH ARE SOLID ON BOTH SIDES). IT'S HARD TO GET A PICTURE OF THOSE WITH THE BUMPER IN PLACE, SO I USED THE OLD RED ONE FOR DEMONSTRATION PURPOSES ONLY, BUT YES THEY ARE BOTH GOOD AND USABLE. ALSO THE REAR SEAT BRACES ARE BOTH SOLID AT THE BOTTOMS AND THE PAN UNDER THE REAR SEAT LOOKS VERY MUCH USEABLE. ALSO THE REAR WINDOW CORNERS(BOTH SOLID). THE WINDSHIELD IS CRACKED AND I WOULD PLAN ON ONLY BEING ABLE TO ACTUALLY USE THE REAR GLASS.


Thanks for everyones patience. Finally got the pics to upload, so you can tell more about the car. The fenders have some small rust and the right has some filler from years ago(rust or dent?). Headlight C-panels and lower fender extensions are all repairable/or not rusted out. Theres about 400, if you have to buy them. The blue door(setting on the wheel) goess with it. Both doors will then be very much usable. The rockers are not rotted out, but the left side has the crash damage towards the rear(by the wheel opening). As you can now see, the front and upper part of the trunk floor are there, but rusted out at the rear center around gas filler neck. The bumper laying on the car goes with it, if you want it. It has some repairable valances on it. You can see all of the front trim on the hood and all of the side trim set to replace the drivers side is laying on the trunk(with the exception of the little short piece, right behind the door opening) I DO NOT have that piece, but do see them on ebay regularly. The decklid is NOT rotted out in the common "V" area, but it does have some rust that would need work. Just keep in mind it is a midwest car and 56 years old and needs rust repair. It is just as buildable of a car as the one at Lambrecht and actually isn't as rusty in some areas. The only difference is that you will have to replace the upper qtr section and the door jamb.

Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards

Tue, 27 Nov 2012

Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:

GM claims it's first to sell million 30+ mpg vehicles

Fri, 04 Jan 2013

As we continue to put together all the data for the year-end edition of By The Numbers, General Motors has announced that it sold more than a million vehicles in the US last year that achieved at least 30 miles per gallon on the highway. More impressively, GM managed this feat using multiple strategies including small vehicle size, turbocharged engines and hybrid or plug-in technologies across four brands (Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet and GMC) accounting for 13 separate models. This number will grow even more in 2013 thanks to cars like the all-electric Spark, the diesel Cruze, the range-extended Cadillac ELR and the Buick Encore compact CUV.
GM's small car sales were up 39 percent last year helping to attain this million-sales mark for 30-mpg models, and almost 40 percent of all GM sales consisted of cars with fuel-efficient I4 engines. In regards to more advanced means of improving fuel economy, GM says that it plans on having 500,000 vehicles with "some form of electrification" on the road by 2017.

Automakers score 8 out of top 20 most-watched ads on YouTube [w/videos]

Fri, 14 Dec 2012

Who would have ever thought there'd be a day where people are able to skip television commercials only to go to websites to watch them later? Such is the joy of a DVR and YouTube. AdWeek tabulated the 20 most-watched ads on YouTube, and found that nine were car-related including eight coming from automakers.
Volkswagen continued its Star Wars theme with two ads in the top 20, including the highest-ranking car commercial The Bark Side spot at number three with almost 18 million views, which doesn't even have a single car in it. Some of our favorites are from Chrysler with Clint Eastwood in It's Halftime in America and House Arrest with Charlie Sheen for the Fiat 500 Abarth. Chevrolet, Honda, Audi and Toyota were the other automakers in the top 20, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention one of the coolest ads on the list, the Hot Wheels corkscrew jump.
Of all the car videos, only the Fiat ad wasn't played during a Super Bowl. Check out all eight videos - in order - after the jump. Nike took the top spot with its My Time is Now ad that has been seen online more than 20 million times with Pepsi's Uncle Drew posted up in the runner-up; some of the other videos include four Old Spice commercials and an ad in which Snoop Dogg is pedaling Hot Pockets.
