The following is a summary of the work we did on the 1966 Impala SS convertible. No doubt some improvements have not been listed. It was a long and costly process. I have many, but not all receipts. I do, however, have a listing of improvements I compiled for my auto insurance company dated 12/31/04 which serves as the core for the following list: 

Car purchased in 1999. The following was done between 99-2004:

Engine Rebuild: Total rebuild of existing 327 ci motor by qualified mechanic (Fred's Automotive, Clayton, WA). New motor is just short of 350hp. Engine compartment was detailed, built new transmission cooler lines, repaired wiring as needed, purchased and installed headers, master brake cylinder, turned break drums, new brake pads, new radiator and hoses, new water pump, new fuel pump. I would guess I have less than 2000 miles on the car since all the major repairs have been done. The vehicle came with a new Edelbrock 4 barrel carburetor (650 I think) and Edelbrock head. 

Suspension: Installation of new shocks, springs, wheel seals, stabilizer bar, bushings, brake hoses, front end alignment by Fred's Automotive. 

Convertible top improvements: New convertible top cylinders/pump/hose kit, convertible rubber seal and latch.....Fred's Auto.

Turbo 350 transmission: Took out old torque flite 2 speed tranny, and had a rebuilt Turbo 350 professionally installed. 

Interior Improvements: New door panels purchased and then recovered. Refurbished/recovered front and back seats, purchased/recovered new back side panels. Computer stitching of "Impala" on front seats and "Super Sport" on back seats. Recovered front visors. Work done or contracted through Lee Henning upholstery specialist, Deer Park, WA. New vinyl trunk mat, molded carpet kit, sound deadener kit installed. Installation of Promatic 2 / Hurst automatic shifter by Fred's Auto. 

Electrical improvements: New fuse box and rear light assembly installed by Jake's Automotive, Deer Park, WA. 

New sound system: Alpine AM/FM/CD receiver purchased and professionally installed under the dash; Eclipse 6.5 inch speakers professionally installed in door panels; Eclipse 12 inch speakers installed in box in the trunk + JBL 600 watt amplifier. 

Following done in 2006-7 by "Precious Metals" auto body specialists, Deer Park, WA:

Exterior refurbish. All rust was cut out and "skins" purchased and welded in around wheel wells and lower rear body panels. New rocker panels. Body repainted gun metal grey with clear coat and metal flake. All new SS tagging, chrome and aluminum body and wheel well trim. Vast majority of the rubber moldings were replaced. New tumblers for locks/ignition. 

Interior work: New clock installed, but unfortunately still doesn't work. Power antenna installed on passenger side/rear panel. New "Flaming River" tilt steering column + new wood steering wheel installed. 

Also done 2006-7:

New tires: Cooper 235-60-R16 M+S. CS4 - Touring. Less than 1000 miles on them. 

New wheels: American Racing polished aluminum wheels

To do:

Top is serviceable without any rips but needs replacement. I would purchase an old AM radio to stick in the dash where the hole is; just for show. I would make adjustment on glove compartment door lock so it opens/closes smoothly. 

This info is accurate to the best of my knowledge, but car will be sold as-is with no warranty, stated or implied. 

The value of the car according to Hagerty is approximately $18,634, computed as a Condition 3 vehicle (#1 is highest; 4 is lowest). 

This car comes from the Western US (salt free roads not a rust bucket)

Dodge vs. Chevy tug-of-war taken to the extreme

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

They say "idle hands are the devil's playground," but said playgrounds grow to Disney-sized proportions when a pair of jacked-up trucks, two egos, a chain and an empty mall parking lot are involved. Proof of this is the video below, which shows a Cummins-powered Dodge Ram circa 2006 to 2008 chained tail-to-tail with what looks to be a gasoline-powered Chevrolet Silverado from the late 1990s or early 2000s.
We don't necessarily have to tell you who wins this battle, but we'll let you see for yourself the lengths the "winning" driver goes to prove his point. There's plenty of foul language in the video below, so beware that this might be Not Safe For Work, and not that we should have to tell you, but please, do not try this at home.

Mother's Day Suggestion No. 2,506

Thu, 02 May 2013

With Mother's Day coming up, we're always looking for new gift ideas to celebrate the occasion, but hot laps around a track might not be the best suggestion for Darius Khashabi. In a video posted on YouTube, Khashabi straps his mom into the passenger seat of his C6 Corvette Z06 for some laps around Sonoma Raceway (formerly Infineon Raceway) at "60 percent" with comical results.
Now this isn't the first time Mama Khashabi has gotten seat time in her son's car around a track, as his YouTube page shows him pulling a similar stunt - with similar results - around Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last year. Scroll down for the video, but know that the action really gets going at around the 1:40 mark.

Joe Flacco wins C7 Corvette along with MVP honors

Mon, 04 Feb 2013

As part of a longstanding tradition, the MVP of Super Bowl XLVII, Joe Flacco, quarterback for the Baltimore Ravens, was given a new car directly after the game and trophy celebrations. For 2013, that car is a 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, and it was presented to Flacco by Rick Flick of Banner Chevrolet, a dealership in New Orleans that was wiped out by Hurricane Katrina in 2005 before returning to prominence as the only Chevy dealer in Orleans Parish.
Last year, Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning took home a 2012 Corvette GS Centennial Edition. Manning also won in 2008, when he selected a Cadillac Escalade Hybrid as his reward. In 2011, quarterback Aaron Rodgers accepted the keys to a Camaro convertible.
Though we're most definitely an auto-obsessed group, we did watch the Big Game along with nearly everyone else in America. And we've gotta say, as if winning the Super Bowl and receiving the Tiffany-designed Pete Rozelle Trophy wasn't enough for the multi-millionaire MVP athletes, a brand-new C7 seems like an awfully generous prize. Scroll down below for an official announcement from General Motors.
