1968 Chevrolet Impala Description

Rare Optioned L-35 396/325 hp numbers matching.Arizona 6 passenger wagon, has turbo 400 automatic transmission,factory A/C (compressor not mounted correctly but spins nicely). Tilt, speed warning indicator,right visor mirror, luggage rack,tailgate deflector, 2 tone paint (was white roof) door frame trim, door edge guards,front bumper guards, front corner parking lights, rear speaker and power tailgate window not working (will put panels back on tailgate). Dealer installed tow package including the transmission cooler with block offs on the radiator and brake adjuster under the column. Not sure but I think it has 3:55 gears, didn't find a build sheet under the seats and did not want to look any further since I wanted to leave it alone. Was parked in 1988, still has gum wrappers in the un-smoked ash trays from the 80's, lighter still looks new on the element and keys are original too. Pull down shades above the inside of the rear doors, vintage and orange reflector tape on the doors.I had been using it as a daily driver for 4 months and just a few times weekly. Needs wheel cylinders to be rebuilt, brakes are okay but not great. Needs front alignment-worn front tires on the inside and original radiator needs cleaning out. Has some rust in the windshield channel lower, not sure about upper, sides are fine. One spot on the drivers side rear C pillar by the back side window, shown in the photos with doors open. Some in the rear lower quarter behind the wheels and one spot in the rear lower compartment. Its smooth on the road and still tight, new wheel barrings in the front and engine was rebuilt along with transmission before it was put away. A true survivor that draws attention every where it goes, local stores for grocery to car shows were its one of the few wagons around. Front seat is torn up in spots mostly where your back goes, front carpet is worn down and we removed the headliner which was fallen apart. Has grass in areas that we left alone, gets attention at shows and I have not washed the car other then by hand. Wax only, no clear and has a nice shine on most of the patina. If your out of country and need it shipped to a port in California, feel free to message for assistance as I have a personal transport for LA.

Just noticed the vin has my phone number and I can't change it to the actually vin which is 16435J226XXX. Last 3 are hidden. Forgot to mention the rust in the drivers side lower fender shown in photo #16. It also has the factory tinted glass (standard on A/C cars), windshield was replaced in the early days with aftermarket and does have 2 chipped areas. Alternator is original and works fine along with the gas gauge, clock and radio were not working and I didn't check the fuses since I just thought of it just now. (LOL)
