Hi, up for sale is my California born 1962 Chevy Impala SS. As you can see by the pics below its in very nice condition in & out. I'm the 3rd owner of this vehicle. Last owner owned it since 1981. Below I will try and describe exactly what i see and know about this car.

Starting with the Outside: a driver quality Ermine white paint job sprayed over a laser straight and rust free body. All chrome and stainless looks to be the originals and have been re-polished or redone at one time and still shows very well. Bumpers front and back are still real nice . All glass is in real good shape with no real defects. All outside electrical is in proper working order.

Inside: The inside of this car is really clean top to bottom. There's new seat covers and foam, real nice door panels with new armrest bases and inner door handles, all new window cranks, white headliner and visors are in great shape. Dash and steering wheel are still the originals but still show real well. All inside electrical works as it should. Beautiful inside ! There's an aftermarket CD player mounted in the glove box for some nice tunes.

Motor & Transmission: Car is still powered by the original 327 which still has alot of power. This is a power steering, manual brake car. Just did a complete tune-up so car is ready to go. I just put a new chrome kit under the hood but all the original items will go with the car with its new owner. The transmission is still the original powerglide that shifts just as it should with no hesitation. Car is a real good runner.

Rims & Tires: Car is currently rolling on a set of stocks with a new set of tires with maybe 50 miles on them. SS spinner hubcaps are in great shape only showing very minor wear.

Everything else: Undercarriage is very clean with all the original floor pans and has no signs of rust or soft spots anywhere. The suspension is all stock and cut. The rear has some air shocks that work real good. The trunk is in excellent shape as you can see and will come with the original jack kit and carpet kit.

All in all this car is in very good shape in and out. These cars are starting to get harder to fine uncut and not messed with. I'm pricing this car very reasonable for a fast sale. If you'd like to make an offer please do. I have no problem ending my listing early. Most of my Impalas don't last the whole 7 days. Don't let this one get away. I sell a lot of cars overseas so I can help arrange shipping to the LA ports at a reduced cost. Above I've tried to be as thorough as possible when describing the car but if you have any further questions feel free to email, text or call me at 408-seven12-9427. Thanks!

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]

Sun, 26 Jan 2014

If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.

Consumer Reports criticizes small turbo engines for misleading performance, fuel economy claims [w/video]

Tue, 05 Feb 2013

Consumer Reports has taken aim at at small-displacement, forced-induction engines, saying the powerplants don't manage to deliver on automaker fuel economy claims. Manufacturers have long held that smaller, turbocharged engines pack all power of their larger displacement cousins with significantly better fuel economy, but the research organization says that despite scoring high EPA economy numbers, the engines are no better than conventional drivetrains in both categories. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, says the forced induction options "are often slower and less fuel efficient than larger four and six-cylinder engines."
Specifically, CR calls out the new Ford Fusion equipped with the automaker's Ecoboost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The institute's researchers found the engine, which is a $795 option over the base 2.5-liter four-cylinder, fails to match competitors in acceleration and served up 25 miles per gallon in testing, putting the sedan dead last among other midsize options.
The Chevrolet Cruze, Hyundai Sonata Turbo and Ford Escape 2.0T all got dinged for the same troubles, though Consumer Reports has found the turbo 2.0-liter four-cylinder in the BMW 328i does deliver on its promises. You can check out the full press release below. You can also read the full study on the Consumer Reports site, or scroll down for a short video recap.

2015 Chevy Tahoe gets Police Patrol Vehicle treatment

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

That was fast. Mere days after showing a Police Concept based on the 2015 Tahoe at the SEMA Show, Chevrolet has announced that it will build a PPV model based on the SUV to do battle with the Ford Police Interceptor Utility (Explorer) and Dodge Durango Special Service.
You'll recall that the Tahoe has been police staple for several years, predating both the Explorer and Durango police variants, so the fact that the new model would spawn a police variant is hardly surprising. Like the civilian model, the 2015 PPV benefits from a more efficient 5.3-liter, direct-injection V8 that pumps out 355 horsepower and 383 pound-feet of torque. It also features more high-strength steel, offering better crash protection, on top of optional safety items like lane departure warning, forward collision alert and a Safety Alert Seat.
The press release is rather light on police-specific items, aside from the auxiliary battery, which keeps the myriad of electronics in a modern police car running even when the engine isn't. Lightbars, 17-inch steel wheels on Goodyear Eagle RS-A tires and a push bar round out the mods for the Tahoe PPV. The cabin features a revised center console and room for laptop and other equipment mounts.
