Up for auction is my 1962 Chevrolet Impala Super Sport with a dual quad 409 and 4-speed manual transmission.  The car has an all original drivetrain and engine, as well as all original sheet metal.  I bought the car 10 years ago and had it shipped from Florida to California.  I am the fourth owner after purchasing the car from a body shop owner who had too many cars on his hands.  I still have a copy of the original ad from when I purchased the car 10 years ago as well as all my receipts and paperwork going back to the original owner.

All drivetrain numbers match, including: Block # 3788068, Pad # A155243 + T0220QB, Heads # 3814690 K-361, Intake # 3814881, Carter Carbs # 3361(F), 3362(R), Exhaust #s 3814682 and 3814683, and Bell housing # 3785644.  You are unlikely to find a more original example, so bid accordingly, as this investment-grade car will only increase in value.

The odometer shows 34,797 miles, which may be original as the car sat for approximately 19 years, but I have no way to verify.  I have the original pink slip for the car.  I have restored or replaced everything on this car inside and out.  The paint was done about 5 years ago and still looks great.  The car is fully functional mechanically and it runs great as it should. 

I've installed an original-look Griffin aluminum radiator so the car runs nice and cool.  It also has a modern radio and speakers, but retains an original look, as seen in the pictures and even has the original reverb in the trunk.  The car also features an upgraded primary carburetor and vacuum advance distributor.  The 3:70 posi rear end was also completely rebuilt with the rest of the drivetrain. 

The winning bidder will also get the original 14" wheels with full spinners, the original radiator, the original radio, speakers, primary carburetor(Carter 3362), and the correct mechanical advance distributor. 

If you have any questions or need more information, please call Joe at 650-228-4680 or just click the ask a question link on the ad.

I will require a non-refundable deposit of $1000 within 3 days of the auction's end.  The car will be released when full payment is received.  Buyer is responsible for pickup and/or transportation of the vehicle, but I will help with loading if needed.  This vehicle is also for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.

Thank you and good luck!

GM to make most cars LTE hotspots for 2015

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

General Motors isn't the first automaker to deliver in-car Internet access, but a proposed plan announced today could make the technology more widespread than any of its competitors have offered. By the 2015 model year, most Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac and GMC products in the US and Canada will offer 4G LTE mobile broadband access. Initially, GM will just be pairing with AT&T to deliver this service, but additional carriers will be revealed in the future.
Current in-car Wi-Fi hot spots are limited to 3G, but GM says that 4G LTE is 10 times faster than 3G service and will allow for full Internet access, including streaming video for entertainment as well as services like real-time traffic updates and navigation driving directions. There is also no need for a paired smartphone with this new system, which should make it easier to use, and GM and AT&T will also be working together to develop new apps for customers.
Buyers can expect to start seeing 4G LTE in their cars starting next year, and GM is already planning to expand the service to other global markets as well. All of the information from GM's announcement is posted in a press release below.

Hot Wheels' Twitter-enabled vending machine coughs up free Camaro diecasts

Wed, 27 Feb 2013

There are still plenty of companies that haven't gotten the whole social media thing down pat yet, but Hot Wheels isn't one of them. During the recent Canadian International Auto Show in Toronto, Hot Wheels created a lot of buzz for itself by using a vending machine filled with Chevrolet Camaro models, but instead of money to get the cars, show attendees just had to use Twitter.
To get the free car, people were asked to send a tweet to Hot Wheels Canada saying what they liked about the new Hot Wheels Edition Camaro, and including the #ChevyCIAS hashtag. This seemed to be a popular marketing tool, too, as AdWeek reports that the @HotWheelsCanada account more than tripled in followers during the course of the 10-day show. Looking ahead, this could open up even more innovative marketing possibilities using social media.
Check out the video posted below to watch how it works, and while the auto show has ended and the free-car giveaway has too, we're almost certain that some of the 1,500 freebies will make their way onto eBay.

Chevrolet Captiva looks mildly refreshed and ready for family duty

Tue, 05 Mar 2013

We showed you Chevrolet's major debut yesterday, the 2014 Corvette Stingray Convertible, but General Motors is making a big push for Bowtie consideration in Europe, so it's also introducing the updated Captiva crossover here at the Geneva Motor Show.
While still based on the same platform as North America's fleet-only Captiva Sport (which is effectively a rebadged Saturn Vue), the Captiva is available in both five- and seven-seat iterations, and it looks far more modern. That's particularly the case with this updated model, which features revamped front- and rear ends that include restyled bumpers, grilles and LED taillamps, among other changes.
As before, the midsize Theta-platform CUV will be available in both front- and all-wheel drive, and is expected to carry a range of four- and six-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines. Important US programming note: Chevrolet sources tell us that America's Captiva Sport will not receive these updates.
