DESCRIPTION
-
Ok, will be little descriptive for you, so there is NO doubts. I got this car from an older gentleman, and I knew the car for many years of local car shows here, that he would always attend. He got the car back in 2009 from a guy in California and has had the car until I purchased it from him. So, it has been in California where it was built at in 1962 and now here in Tennessee. The gentleman I got it from, just couldn’t drive any more, due to some health issues (dementia is one). Car drives, runs, stops, and handles amazing. Drive anywhere at any time. Car is very solid NO rust and is very nice shape. Has a clear Tennessee title. You can drive this car anywhere you want, of course that's what there for.
I know this year Impala is getting in high demand and harder to find, especially a true Super Sport, in this condition. I probably should keep it, it is fun to drive, comfortable and easy to drive, but I don't want to mess it up by making a bunch of modifications. I am wanting more of a little aggressive car; this is a great cruiser to drive anywhere. Don’t want to starting changing suspension, wheels, steering wheel, exhaust etc..
ENGINE:
327-.Runs good and could drive home or to any show no matter how far.
·
700R4 transmission, very nice for the long cruise, added in 2006.

Factory air car, converted to the R134A Vintage air
·
Power steering and power disc brakes on front
·
Ceramic coated headers with stainless exhaust.
·
HEI distributor with a 600 cfm Edlebrock carb. Starts up easy and idles great, no pumping the gas.

New Radiator in 2009 when the Vintage Air was updated from factory.
·
Original horns still work and mounted under the hood.

New rear axle bearing seals in 2009,has a 3:08 gear.

New front coil springs in 2006

.
BODY/EXTERIOR
:
-
Very nice and shines good and straight body, gaps are great. It has been painted, only one time since 1962 and back to the original factory color, of Ivory white.
·
Has all the original sheet metal, floor pans and trunk pan.
·
Ready to cruise to any car show or cruise in, no matter how far you need to drive. Very solid, No rust. Very few Knicks. Has the old half moons over headlights, that you don’t see much anymore.
·
Some options include, dual outside door mirrors, Chrome spears on the fenders, chrome around gas tank door, power windows, Rear antenna on quarter panel.
·
All the glass is original and looks amazing.
·
Look at the body gaps, the are great and aligns very nice, very nice body and paint. Doors, hood, and truck, open and close very nice. Doors do NOT have to be slammed, one click, easy shut.
·
All the bumpers, grill, mirrors, door handles, trim (fits tight, no gaps)
etc.. is all original and looks very, very nice.
·
There is a small scrap, dent area on passenger rear quarter at the bottom (not real bad) that the guy hit it with his mower pulling back into the garage, that’s when they realized, he didn’t need to be driving
any
car anymore. I got a cost to fix it here in TN., he said to fix and to match it would be 0, like I said, its not as bad as it looks. Hood has some small pitting, not rust by no means. Can take additional pictures of it if needed. I was told, it may could be wet sanded and buffed out.
·
Has 15” Corvette Rally’s with wide bands and flat centers, has a good old school look.
·
I would say the paint is a little
better
than driver quality, is shines very well and still looks good.
·
Trunk is very solid and looks good, with the old bias-ply spare and jack mount.
·
Underneath is solid and no rust in the pans or the frame. Original floor pans and trunk pan.
INTERIOR
:
- Interior is in almost perfect condition, looks very nice, factory SS, so it has the buckets seats, console (Opens and closes good) , and the power window option.
·
All dash lights, blinkers, Tail, Brake and Headlights, wipers, dome light (work with both doors) gas gauge, speedometer, and horn, all still works like they should.
·
All the power windows roll up/down like they should, and vent windows rolls out and in very smooth and both doors lock.
·
All interior lights, under dash and both in the sail panels work.
·
Factory radio still in dash, didn’t cut up dash, so added another stereo underneath with remote, and it sounds pretty dang good.
·
Seats look great as well does the door panels, carpet and dash, look at pics. Looks better in person.
·
Original steering wheel and still looks good, horn still works.
·
All New weather-stripping around the doors and trunk in 2010
