1970 Impala Convertible, NOT original. This car was purchased by me in the early 90's. The original driveline including engine, transmission, exhaust, and suspension (springs, shocks, bushings, etc.) was replaced with high performance items.
Engine is 454 built by a professional engine builder. Holley carb. Edelbrock intake manifold. Electronic ignition. Transmission is a THD 350 with manual shift kit. Exhaust is Hooker headers. 12 bolt rear (non posi). Car is only taken out for a ride once every couple of years. It is very powerful.
It is possible that the mileage is really 56,296 and not 156,296 but I listed it high so as not to get involved in that discussion. I don't think that I have put 2,000 miles on it since the driveline was replaced, and I was told it had one owner before me who just used it around town.
Outside condition is pretty good. Interior needs work. I never hooked up the AC fan belt, though the pump and system are intact. I would recommend charging it and having it checked out first if you want to use AC.
When I turned on the heater this year, it sounded like an acorn had gotten into the fan. I had someone working on the wiring, and he took out one switch and one window motor. I have them. He also took out a set of aftermarket speakers mounted in the back, leaving holes in the trim as shown. Seats are shown in pictures. Vent hoses from heating/AC have fallen apart. I only take it out in the summer so I never fixed it.
Front wiring harness was replaced with driveline. New convertible motor. I have extra parts such as ashtrays, cigarette lighters, and hubcaps that go with the car.
The car is a driver. Engine is powerful, controllable and responsive. Handling is tight. Built to be a highway car. Car is registered and inspected.
As is. No returns. Need the room in the garage.
Thanks for looking.

2014 Chevrolet SS makes its live debut
Sat, 16 Feb 2013Chevrolet showed off the new 2014 SS in an airport hangar last night, its first rear-wheel-drive performance sedan in the US since the Impala SS from 1997. We'll have more to say about the SS later today, but this is the sedan that Chevrolet sees as the final piece in restoring its performance credentials. For those of you looking for a manual transmission, however, that wish will go unfulfilled - at least for now: the only two options buyers will have are the color and whether or not they want a sunroof.
We'll work on getting some more angles (in better light) today at Daytona International Speedway, but with fans seeing the car for the first time, we don't hold out much luck of getting a clear shot. So for now, enjoy the high-res gallery above.
Watch this time-lapse build of the Chevy SS for NASCAR
Fri, 08 Feb 2013There's only about a week left until we get our first look at the production version of the 2014 Chevrolet SS sedan, but Chevrolet NASCAR teams have been looking at the race version of the car all winter. Autoweek has posted a really neat time-lapse video showing just a portion of what it takes to build one of NASCAR's new Gen6 stock cars.
Though the video is quite brief, it does show almost the entire build process starting with just the car's nose, and it gives us a good look at how integral the template is to the final product. As a bonus, Hendrick Motorsports also provided some videos showing two of its teams performing pit stop tests over the winter. The second video shows some of the more detailed aspects of the racecar's rear end, including the stock-looking trunk cutout and a newly mandated rear bumper extension that will be used on super speedways like Daytona and Talladega.
To see what Team Chevy has been up to all off-season, check out all three videos posted after the jump.
GM tinkering with Silverado, Sierra model mix amidst strong early sales
Mon, 04 Nov 2013Variety, as they say, is the spice of life. That's a lesson that is currently being taught to General Motors, because despite a strong showing from its 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra, the General's pickup sales still can't best those of cross-town rival Ford.
With 59,163 trucks moved, GM fell just over 1,000 units short of toppling Ford, and one of the main reasons for that, according to GM's chief sales analyst, was due to a lack of variety in the engines and body styles available on dealer lots. "We are still over-weighted toward crew-cab V8 trucks. Our light-duty mix will moderate over time as our launch progresses," said Kurt McNeil.
Loading dealers with the popular combination of the 5.3-liter V8 and the four-door, Crew Cab body style was intentional during the truck's launch, but as supplies of leftover 2013 models, which are being sold at heavy incentives, are beginning to wane, both budget-conscious and high-dollar buyers are looking elsewhere instead of at the volume model pickups.
