1958 IMPALA SPORT COUPE
HELLO, SELLING MY 58 IMPALA, THIS CAR IS IN REALLY NICE SHAPE AND HAS HAD A TON OF WORK DONE TO IT RECENTLY. BRIEF HISTORY ON THE CAR AS WE KNOW IT IS, IT STARTED LIFE DOWN IN GEORGIA AND STAYED THERE UNTIL ABOUT 25 YEARS AGO WHEN IT WAS BROUGHT UP TO SOUTHERN INDIANA, AT THAT TIME IT WAS TREATED TO A LIGHT RESTORATION AND PAINTED THE AQUA METALLIC THAT YOU SEE IN THE PICTURES,IT WAS THEN DRIVEN HERE AND THERE TO CAR SHOWS AND SUCH, THE OWNER THEN STARTED TO GATHER PARTS TO DO A FULL BLOWN RESTO ON THE CAR. HE WAS ABLE TO HAVE ALL THE MECHANICALS GONE THROUGH AND REBUILT BEFORE HE PASSED AWAY.. I BOUGHT THE CAR AFTER IT HAD SET FOR A BIT AND HAVE DONE ALOT OF WORK TO IT, BUT IT'S TIME TO MOVE ON TO MY 57 PLYMOUTH AND FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO ENJOY THIS IMPALA. THE CAR WAS ORIGINALLY COLONIAL CREAM WITH A 283 V8 AND A 3 SPEED MANUAL TRANS. OPTIONS INCLUDE THE V8, POWER STEERING, PUSH BUTTON RADIO, DELUXE HEATER AND REAR SEAT SPEAKER. THE 58 HAS ONLY BEEN IN MICHIGAN FOR ABOUT A YEAR, AND A BUNCH OF PARTS WERE COLLECTED THAT WILL GO WITH THE CAR. HERE IS A LIST OF WHAT I HAVE TO GO WITH IT,
FULL SET OF RUBBER WEATHERSTRIP FOR THE WHOLE CAR
ROOF RAIL
DOORS
TRUNK
BUMPER FILLER
SPLASH PAN RUBBER, EVERTHING..
ALL THE WINDOW FLETS WISKERS
NEW FENDER CHEVRONS
NEW IN THE BOX CUSTOM AUTO SOUND AM/FM RADIO FOR 58 CHEVY
CUSTOM AUTO SOUND DUAL COIL SPEAKER
IN THE BOX COIL SPRINGS
HARRISON HEATER CORE
DOOR PANEL CARDS PRE PUNCHED FOR ALL THE TRIM
2 GREAT COMPLETE ARM RESTS
THE DOOR PANEL TRIM TO COMPLETE THE DRIVERS SIDE
ORIGINAL FENDER SKIRTS
PATCH PANELS FOR THE REAR QUARTER
PATCH PANEL FOR THE DRIVERS SIDE REAR FLOOR

PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING YOU WOULD NEED TO DO THE REST OF THE RESTO IF YOU CHOOSE TO DO SO, OR JUST ENJOY IT AS IT IS. HERE IS WHAT HAS BEEN DONE..
283 ENGINE TOTALLY REBUILT ALL NEW BOLTS
350 TURBO HYDRO 3 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANS SHIFT KIT

GLOVE BOX, REAR SEAT SPEAKER SURROUND, ASH TRAY, OUTSIDE COWL VENT, AND ALL INSIDE REVEAL MOLDINGS WERE CHROMED AT SOME POINT.
I AM SURE I FORGOT TO MENTION SOME THINGS THAT WERE DONE, BUT BOTTOM LINE, IT RUNS, STARTS, AND STOPS GREAT!
WHAT IT WILL STILL NEED... REALLY NOTHING, TO GET IN ENJOY AND HAVE FUN, IT DOSE'NT NEED ANYTHING, LIKE I SAID THE MECHANICALLS ARE DONE. UNDERNEATH REAL CLEAN AND HAS A GREAT SOUTHERN FRAME. THAT BEING SAID THE PAINT IS OLDER AND HAS SOME CHIPS AND SCRATCHES, I JUST WHEELED IT OUT AND IT'S A 10 FOOTER, GREAT FOR A DRIVER. SEATS ARE NICE AND CLEAN AND HAVE GOOD SUPPORT FOAM STILL BUT, HAVE 4 SPITS ON THE SEAMS, (PASSENGER FRONT BOTTOM SEAM,DRIVER SIDE REAR BOTTOM SEAM, REAR TOP NEAR PACKAGE TRAY BOTH SIDES) ALL COULD BE SEWN BACK, VINYL IS STILL VERY NICE. MISSING DRIVERS DOOR PANEL, EVERYTHING YOU NEED COMES WITH THE CAR OTHER THAN THE VINYL TO COMPLETE IT. OTHER DOOR PANELS ARE VERY NICE. AS I SAID HEADLINER IS NEW.
ALL GLASS IS GREAT, WINDSHIELD, QUARTER GLASS, REAR WINDOW, AND VENT GLASS SUPER NICE, BOTH DOOR GLASS IS CRACKED THEY ARE AVAILABLE FROM LATE GREAT CHEVY FOR $64 PER SIDE.
CAR HAS MANAGED TO STAY MOSTLY RUST FREE AS THESE 50'S CARS GO, BUT IT DOES HAVE SOME RUST SHOWING IN 3 AREAS. BOTH LOWER QUARTERS AND BOTTOM FRONT OF THE PASSENGER DOOR HAS SOME BUBBLING. THERE IS 1 AREA IN THE REAR FLOOR BEHIND THE DRIVERS SEAT WHERE IT IS A LITTLE SOFT, NO HOLE, BUT WANTED TO LET EVERYONE KNOW IT'S ABOUT 2 INCHES LONG AND I HAVE INCLUDED A FLOOR PANEL IN THE SALE, DON'T KNOW IF YOU WILL EVEN NEED IT, BUT IT WILL BE INCLUDED. REST OF FLOORS ARE SUPER NICE, AS WITH THE FENDERS, TRUNK LID, CORE SUPPORT, HOOD, EVERYTHING ELSE ALL LOOK GREAT.
OVERALL A GREAT SOLID 58 THAT IS READY TO ROLL AND HARD TO FIND IN THIS CONDITION ( THEY NEED EVERYTHING OR THEY ARE DONE AND TOO MUCH MONEY...)
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS JUST GIVE ME A CALL 734-578-5125 JEFF
THANKS AND GOOD LUCK

When are stripes more than just stripes? Follow up question: Is the product development team at Chevrolet really cocky enough to hide the next C7 Corvette variant in plain sight? This very recently spotted, and ostensibly obscured C7 asks a lot more questions than it answers, but there's at least some evidence to support that it might be the next Corvette Grand Sport.
The first and most obvious tip-off that something is up with this 'Vette revolves around those silver stripes. Obviously the stripes themselves don't necessarily denote a new model. However, when Chevy recently launched its "colorizer" website for the Stingray, there was no provision made for racing stripes - solid colors only.
Grand Sport exhibit number two is actually an incriminating lack of badges. The production Corvettes we've seen to date have all carried Stingray badges on their fenders, just behind the vent. The car seen in these images has no such badges, which is an intriguing omission on an car that looks like a production-spec vehicle otherwise.

Over the weekend, Chevrolet released its first images of the new 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now, ahead of the droptop's official introduction tomorrow at the Geneva Motor Show, the automaker has given us a few more shots of the softop C7 showing off the car's rump albeit from a high, strategically positioned angle.
From this angle, it's hard to get a sense for how long and flat the decklid really is, but we can easily see that, like the rest of the C7's design, the new convertible's decklid and tonneau cover are far more detailed than the current car. We also get a better look at the rear haunches sans brake vents, which have apparently been moved to underneath the car in order to accommodate the top's hard cover.
As for the overall styling of the C7 convertible, with the top erected, we get some idea of what a coupe design (as opposed to the Stingray's fastback shape) would look like on this car. The C5 Corvette most recently had a coupe model that did away with the large glass hatchback, and we recently reported on a low-cost "coupe" model potentially being added to the C7's repertoire.
