This auction is for a 1963 Chevrolet Impala Sport Coupe . I have owned this for a number of years with the intention of makeing a resto mod but I can see I am never going to get to it So I am offering it on ebay . The car does need a complete restoration but parts are readily available through many different vendors. When I got the car someone had primed it black. I stripped all the black paint off so you can see what you have to work with. The fenders, doors and quarters do have some areas of rust through but are surprisingly not as bad as they appear. The fenders only have a small rust hole at the bottom, the inner door bottoms are solid, just some rust holes on the outer skin that can easily be repaired and same with the quarters. The quarters have never been cut and are solid around the wheel lips and inner quarters are solid. Doors still open and close like new. Heck thats still the original turquois paint under the primer and touch up! Rockers are nice and solid. Frame is good and solid just surface rust. Floors and braces are intact but they have holes here and there so they will need replacement. Trunk extensions are intact but trunk middle is gone. There is also some erosion on the trunk gutter and portions will need replacement. Trunk lid still latches fine. Hood has some rust through on the back side that can be fixed. Car has all deep tinted glass. Windshield is broke (replacement provided). Interior is all intact but needs to be redone. The car originally was a 283 V-8 stick on the column. There is a hole where somebody put a floor shift at one time. The standard column is still intact as are the clutch and brake pedals. Standard shift drive shaft is included. I had a nice low mileage 1964 Impala 283, 4 BBL, Power Pack Motor and Power Glide Transmission that runs great that I have been saving and Im including it in the sale of the car. I just set it in place for transporting. Also included will be a radiator, fan and fan shroud, complete wiring harness, glove box door, the automatic drive shaft along with the standard one. A complete automatic steering column and correct steering wheel and any other misclaneous parts I may have. Car rolls fine but no brakes. Please bid only if you have intentions of following through with the sale! Sold on a bill of sale only. If you need a title in your state, I am willing to register the car and with that and our dealer transfer paperwork you will get a title.Can store the car until spring as long as it is paid for in advance.

New Bright creating exclusive 1:8 scale radio-controlled C7 Corvette
Mon, 04 Feb 2013If you want a new 2014 Chevrolet Corvette but can't quite save up enough pennies for the monthly payment, we have good news for you. Toymaker New Bright has pulled the covers off of its 1:8 scale remote-controlled version of the American sports car. Complete with a very detailed interior and LED headlights, this large-scale R/C is as close as most of us will ever come to having one of the menacing Chevrolet models to call our very own. New Bright still hasn't released pricing or availability, but word has it the coupe should hit the market soon.
Right now, it appears as if the C7 will hit shelves in Torch Red, though we don't know if other colors are planned as well. The good news is that New Bright isn't exactly turning its back on the old C6 - representatives say the company will continue to make its popular C6R racecar for those who prefer round taillights.
Silverado HD, Touareg V10 TDI face off in diesel tug-of-war
Sun, 30 Dec 2012A couple weeks ago, we watched a Chevrolet Silverado get dominated by a Dodge Ram Heavy Duty in a fullsize pickup tug-of-war, but in that truck's defense, Chevy's Vortec gas engine was no match for the torquey Cummins turbo diesel. For our next round of vehicular tug-of-war, a Duramax-powered Silverado HD takes on Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI.
Now, on paper, putting the Duramax V8's 365 horsepower and 660 pound-feet of torque up against the V10's 310 hp and 553 lb-ft looks like an easy win for the Bowtie, but unfortunately, this battle has a similar result as the Dodge versus Chevy video, with the Silverado smoking its tires trying to move forward as it gets pulled backwards. Put another way: YouTube 2, Chevy Silverado 0.
It just goes to show, though, that big tires, bolt-on fender flares and goofy smoke stacks don't improve your towing abilities. Besides, what did the Silverado driver expect when the Touareg V10 TDI has towed a Boeing 747 in the past?
Pure Vision Design TT Camaro has 1,400 reasons to want it
Wed, 06 Nov 2013We've talked about Pure Vision Design before, a California-based company that made waves at last year's SEMA show with its Martini-liveried, Indy-car-powered Ford Mustang. That same car later starred in a Petrolicious video we showed you just a few weeks back. The company's latest creation is a menacing car it calls the Pure Vision Design TT Camaro. Based on a 1972 model, this car shares the Martini Mustang's clean styling and obsession with details.
Unlike the Mustang, which draws its power from a mid-60s Lotus-Ford Indycar engine, the "TT" in this Camaro's name implies something far more potent. The Nelson Racing Engines 427-cubic-inch V8 has been fitted with a pair of turbochargers, with a claimed output of 1,400 horsepower. That's almost 1,000 more than the Martini Mustang.
A six-speed Magnum transmission dispatches that power to the ground, while Pirelli PZero tires are tasked with (somehow) trying to grip the road. Baer brakes hide behind those HRE rims, while JRI coilovers and HyperTech springs bless the Camaro with some degree of competency in the bends.
