very nice 1962 impala for sale. we bought this put some money into the mechanical and now am selling it. This is a running and driving car but will need a wiring harness for interior installed to get all the electrical to work or just splice the wires back together. previous owner who did the cutting of wires, I believe to figure how to get it running because it has an HEI distributor installed so I made it simple and ran a wire from starter to ignition switch and another to hei and then a power supply just to prove it starts,stops with the ignition switch and runs and drives.
new parts ---
chrome air cleaner
rebuilt 600 edelbrock carb
new battery cables
new brake cylinders all around
new brake master cylinder
new front rubber brake lines(rear looked good)
brake shoes and drums looked newer
dropped gas tank and cleaned and put a new pickup screen( will need a new fuel sending unit if you want the gas gauge to work).
new glass pack
car has a rebuilt 283 and a floor shift 4-speed tranny, not sure if this is the original engine/tranny or not.
car will need floor patch on drivers side front and floor brace under that as well as a smaller patch on the passanger side front floor. rear floor is solid and so is trunk except for 2 rust spots in trunk area on a vertical spot on both sides(look at picture). frame is solid with just surface rust. looks like the whole car has some primer work done to it in various places as well as on the roof and will need a little more attention. will need a new passanger side quarter panle skin from molding down and driver side might get buy with just a wheel arch patch . also the passanger side fender will need a small patch.
interior will need new door panles in the front and front seat covers(front seats are not impala seats and I think they are from a mid 60's chevelle??) front seats can stay with me if you wish and I will take 100.00 off final price. let me know. rear seats are in almost mint shape, no rips tears. rear door panles are pretty good shape for a driver.
The story we got is that the guy had rebuilt the engine and did some body work and then ran out of time and money as most car projects go and parked it in the barn in 1998. car runs strong drives good and looks cool. you will need a battery and buyer pays for shipping and I will help load car onto your shipping truck. shipping is your responsibility and payment in full will need to be in my paypal account no later than 48hrs from end of auction. so if cant afford it please don't bid.

Chevy Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo concept blends the past and the future
Wed, 19 Nov 2014The Chevrolet Chaparral 2X Vision Gran Turismo is the rare concept car that salutes a seminal moment in history, yet also borders on science fiction.
Revealed Wednesday at the Los Angeles Auto Show, the concept uses the name of one of Chevy's historic racing partnerships, with Chaparral Racing, which dates to the 1960s. Chaparrals raced successfully at a range of levels, including IndyCar, Trans-Am and SCCA competition.
But the history ends there, as the concept's main purpose is as a racecar in a downloadable update for the PlayStation 3 game Gran Turismo 6.
800k car names trademarked globally, suddenly alphanumerics seem reasonable
Tue, 01 Oct 2013What's in a name? This cliched phrase probably gets tossed out at every marketing meeting that happens when a new car gets its nomenclature. We know the answer, though: everything. The name of a car has all the potential to make or break it with fickle customers that are more conscious than ever about what their purchases say about them.
That's giving headaches to marketing folks across the automotive industry. "It's tough. In 1985 there were about 75,000 names trademarked in the automotive space. Today there are 800,000," Chevrolet's head of marketing, Russ Clark, told Automotive News. Infiniti's president, Johan de Nysschen, echoed Clark's sentiment, saying, "The truth of the matter is, across the world, there is hardly a name or a letter that hasn't already been claimed by one car manufacturer or another. You can go through the alphabet - A, B, C and so forth - and you will quickly see that almost all available letters are taken."
What has that left automakers to do? Get creative. In the case of Infiniti, it made the controversial move to bring all of its cars' names into a new scheme, classifying them as Q#0 for cars and QX#0 for SUVs and crossovers. So the Infiniti G, which was available as the G25 and G37, is now the Q50. The FX37 and FX50 are now the QX70.
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.
