Thelma.. 66 Impala

Ahh- wasn't enough in the pic for me to recognize it. Guess I would've also assumed the interior was super sano like the exterior. I sent my B-59 radio out, had it converted to electronic AM/FM/aux jack- looks 100% stock on the outside. I also cut in holes in the package shelf for 6x9s (my car only had a 4x9 dash speaker), still have to do the doors for 6.5"ers.

Big, brash, fuselage-bodied '69 Fury VIP hardtop coupe, with the uber-cool 'recall' magnesium rims. 1,059 built, 215-in overall length, all steel & cast iron, 3670 lbs.

FACTS: We know that the C8 Corvette and a number of her contemporaries in GM's 2020 stables will have a Pushrod Small Block Engine. This may very well be the last and the finest small block engine. We do not know much beyond that. PREDICTION: The following is my prediction on its specifics. You will have to wait half a year to find out if I am right or if I am close... RPO: LT2 Aspiration: Naturally Aspirated Construction: Aluminum block and heads Cylinder Spacing: 111.76 mm (4.400") Bore x Stroke: 103.25 mm x 101.6 mm (4.065" x 4.000") Displacement: 6,805 cc (415 cu-in) Static Compression: 11.5:1 Fuel requirement: Premium Unleaded Gasoline (91 Octane) recommended / not required Valve Train: Push rods with roller lifters, concentric cams-in-block with dual cam phasing, cylinder deactivation via collapsible lifters Power Output: 525 bhp @ 6000 rpm Torque: 512 lb-ft @ 4200 rpm Maximum engine speed: 6,300 rpm

Yeah everything in time. Seats and upholstery was redone but the dash... I was always afraid of doing a repaint but if I take my time this Spring and mask everything off properly I should be good to go

That's a '64. I consider it 'rescued'; it's mine. I am going to do some 'purging' in the garage this week, but I'm working on the '59 right now. But people around me are increasingly on me to get something done with it (including numerous offers to buy), perhaps me posting this pic is looking for more 'kicks in the ass'. I have the resident '63 Corvette still in my shop- it should leave in a few weeks (I hope), opening 1 bay up- perhaps then, along with the Purge, I can look at giving some attention to it. The motor is free, and it hasn't shown any deterioration since it was garaged... but I would have to go thru all systems to attempt to re-road it. It's been sitting for... many years now. What vehicle is that?

Just thinking back.. I remember when I got my STS backin '05 .. GM was putting actual 40 GB HARD DRIVES in cars for music... Now I put all my music on a 64GB Flash or SD cards

Decided to get rid of stock AM Radio.. cut dash and slipped in a new sytem. Ran wires to the rear after I cut holes in the top, cause these cars only came with a speaker in the middle of the seats and in the middle of the dash. This spring I will paint dash and what not...

This vehicle shows how throwing money at the Alfa problem was not a very good solution.

A rarity, and pretty cool, imo

it looks like its probably better than this recycled garbage can black shiny plastic with 5 cent vinyl pouch the seats on the CT6 are stitched nice. give em credit for that. Can't find nice seat finish on many ATS and CTS
