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.

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.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable

Fri, 21 Sep 2012

General Motors is recalling some 426,240 sedans that may have a faulty transmission shift cable, according to a National Highway Traffic Safety Administration report this morning. The recall concerns a fault within four-speed automatic transmissions equipped on 2007-2010 Saturn Aura models, and 2008-2010 Chevrolet Malibu and Pontiac G6 models.
The report specifies that tabs on the transmission shift cable may fracture and separate. Such a fault could cause a discrepancy between the actual position of the transmission and the apparent position of the shift lever.
GM is currently working to notify owners of the vehicles in question, and dealers will check and replace shift cables free of charge. Scroll down to read the complete NHTSA report.

Final C6 Corvette built in Bowling Green

Fri, 01 Mar 2013

With all of the attention given to the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray lately, you could be forgiven for thinking that it's already well along in production, yet tooling up for the new C7 has only just begun. In fact, production of the outgoing C6 generation in Bowling Green, Kentucky just halted on Thursday.
As the C6 has aged, production numbers have predictably ebbed along with demand, but this year, the addition of the 427 and 60th anniversary models resulted in an uptick in vehicles built - this, despite a model year shortened by around 25 percent to accomodate the new model changeover. The final C6 Corvette ever, No. 13,466 built this year, was a white 427 Convertible destined for the General Motors Heritage Center museum. The car's 7.0-liter V8 heart was assembled by Corvette chief engineer Tadge Juechter himself.
In total, Bowling Green pushed out 215,100 C6 Corvettes over nine years. If you're still a C6 fan at heart and are hoping to get a good deal on a phase-out model, step lively - Chevrolet reportedly had about 6,100 unsold units, which Autoweek suggests is good for around five and a half months of supply at the model's current sales rates. Given that demand will likely slacken even further as the C7 draws closer, that should be a big enough stockpile to keep dealers satisfied until 2014 Stingrays begin showing up on their forecourts in December.
