This 1960 Chevrolet Impala convertible has had much restoration work done, and was finished about a year ago. The car was completely disassembled, the body was removed from the frame, and the frame was sandblasted and painted, and all new control arm bushings and ball joints were installed. The body was also sandblasted, and all rusty metal was cut out and much new metal was welded in, including floor pans, rear quarter sections, trunk area. The quality of the metal work is very good. The body was put back on the frame and it was sent out for finish body work and paint, and it came out very nice. When the paint was finished it was delivered back to me for re-assembly, and I finished it about a year ago.
It has a complete new interior, including seat covers, door panels, carpet, seat belts, etc. It has a new windshield and a new convertible top with a new red parade boot. The power top mechanism works excellent. It has a re-built 283 V8 motor with a Rochester 2 barrel carburetor and a rebuilt aluminum powerglide automatic transmission, both run flawlessly. The rebuilt rear end has the 3:08 gear ratio (best for highway) and new center carrier bearing. It has the original style power steering, and works perfect. Every component of the brakes are new, from the dual line master cylinder to the wheel cylinders, and DOT 5 (silicone) brake fluid was used to prevent corrosion over long periods of time. All new single exhaust. Front end alignment was done.
Basically, everything on this car works, down to the radio, windshield washers and glove box light. The clock was replaced with a voltage meter, but the original clock will be included with the car. Presently there is an alternator in the car, but if the new owner chooses I will convert it back to stock and install a nicely restored generator.
The car is not perfect, it has some trim pieces that could be a little better, and there are a couple of small blemishes in the paint, but this car is very, very nice and needs nothing that would prevent you from enjoying it just as it is. I encourage anyone who is interested in the car to come and see it, the car speaks for itself.
I can answer any questions you may have, by email or telephone (413)-539-9769 (before 8:00 PM eastern time please), ask for Dave.

Officially Official: Chevrolet replaces Daewoo name in Korea

Chevrolet Camaro in Korea - Click above for high-resolution image
There once was a time when Daewoo was one of the biggest companies in South Korea. It was larger than both LG and Samsung, and second only to Hyundai. But these days the name is all but gone.
Next-gen Chevy Cruze caught cruising in the cold
Wed, 13 Feb 2013Spy photographers have caught what looks like the next-generation Chevrolet Cruze out on snow patrol. The camo could be tricking our eyes, but it look like it has an even tidier, more rounded front end and even lower fenders in relation to the top of the hood. And either a chunk of camo has been wedged between the side mirrors and the doors, or the mirrors are up for revision, too.
The door handles have been moved up the side of the car, leading the way to a rear end that grows a bit in length. If the rumors are true, the coming second-generation Cruze sits on the new D2XX platform that will replace the Delta and Theta platforms at General Motors. A global architecture, the Cruze will be the first to get it, but it will underpin everything from next Chevrolet Volt to the Equinox and could be responsible for 2.5 million units by 2018. The next Cruze is expected to begin production in GM's Lordstown, Ohio plant in the third quarter of 2014.
2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra show all their sides in Detroit
Tue, 15 Jan 2013There could hardly be more riding on the next-generation General Motors full-size pickup trucks, so the automaker has wisely made sure to have a selection of different models on hand at the Detroit Auto Show to show off. The 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and 2014 GMC Sierra were both officially introduced last month at a stand-alone reveal, and now they'll be on display for the public to see in various body configurations and trim levels.
The Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and Sierra SLE Extended Cab are aimed at providing more of a high-end pickup experience, while the Silverado LT Z71 Extended Cab and Sierra SLT Z71 Crew Cab should have off-road fans scouting out their favorite trails. The crew cab trucks won't go into production until sometime during the second quarter of this year - with other bodystyles coming later in the year - but we have plenty of live images from Detroit for you to enjoy.
