- My father loved this car from the second he purchased it 53 years ago. He never let it get dirty; waxed it even when it gleamed and never let anyone in it who didn't go through a dirt check on their shoes.
- When he entered the Navy in 1968 he drove it from Roseburg, Oregon to Pensicola, Florida for Flight School. He took a picture in October of '68 when the odometer flipped over the hundred thousand mark. (see photo). During his tour of VietNam he had it garaged back in Oregon awaiting his return. He kept a picture of it during his tour and had an artist in Hong Kong paint an original oil on canvas (see photo) which he hung in his house on base.
- From 1972 until his passing in 2009 it was his Sunday driver. During those 37 years he only drove it 24,000 miles. It stayed covered and garaged, waxed and loved and every year he would drive it in the local Graffiti Night Parade (see photo).
- I feel it is my obligation to find a home for this special car. A home where somebody will appreciate it like he did. Somebody who understands what a true original 1960 Impala really means and how valuable and rare this car truly is.
- Because it still has the original paint there are a few rock chips on the edge of the hood and some gentle swirl marks from a thousand waxes. Perhaps a brand new paint job would bring more money but it would loose that originality that makes the car what it is. And it's a special feeling when you sit in it and know that it looks the same as when it sat on the showroom floor.
- This is a true One-Of-A-Kind from a man who could love a car as much as car could be loved.
- Happy Bidding!

GM won't pay owners of recalled cars for lost value
Thu, 12 Jun 2014Kenneth Feinberg, the man in charge of the General Motors compensation fund dealing with the its widespread ignition switch woes, has issued an informal, two-letter response to the plaintiffs in more than 70 lawsuits seeking redress for lost resale value of their Cobalts: "No." The cases were recently combined into one, but Feinberg told The Detroit News that the fund will deal "only with death and physical injury claims," and that "perceived diminished value" will get no consideration.
ALG, the firm specializing in establishing residual values, determined that Cobalt owners had lost $300 compared to the segment competition and doesn't envision any long-term effects from the recall situation. Feinberg's statement comes in advance of public details on how the compensation fund will work and adheres to GM's long-held position on the matter. The company has already asked a judge to throw out such suits using the pre-bankruptcy defense, even as it stopped using that defense in cases of injury and death.
With plenty of potential gain from the GM suit, however, don't expect the plaintiffs to give up yet. When Toyota was sued for the same reason during the unintended acceleration debacle, it eventually settled the case for between $1 billion and $1.4 billion just to get it over with. Since the 85 law firms involved in the Toyota litigation took home more than $250 million of that total, we shouldn't expect the attorneys to give up on a GM payout, either.

GM recalling 426,000 sedans over faulty transmission shift cable
Fri, 21 Sep 2012General 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.
