1962 Chevrolet Impala Description
You are bidding on what I would consider the coolest patina convertible impala out there.. I don't want to sell but I have come across another vehicle I want,, I won't GIVE this car away, I am ALMOST done with it for summer but giving someone the opportunity to have a cool driver without having to waste time buying all the parts and installing... We build cars and have done numerous impalas and this one was going to be the funnest to drive... I chased this car for a while, this car was purchased new from Economy Chevrolet in Elizabethtown NC, I have the original small glovebox build sheet and title. A friend purchased from Original owner and has known this car since new.. It wears its original black paint, and red interior as well as black top.. The old man pulled it off the street in 73 and had the motor completely rebuilt. His life changed and it sat and sat inside a garage, until my friend called me and said we could purchase it.. I got it home bagged it front and rear, new rear shocks, gas tank, front CPP 13 inch cross drilled/slotted rotors, 12 inch rears with e brake, dual Viar compressors using Accuair switch speed, valve, and controller.. The motor is a 327 (No miles since rebuilt, I would also believe the mileage on odometer to be somewhat true., Muncie 4 speed with new clutch, pressure plate, flywheel, throw out bearing, starter. Has a 67-68 Z28 intake manifold with Weber carb. New radiator, upper and lower hoses, tune up kit, fuel pump, 18 and 20 inch Esajian wheels with new tires, centers are brushed and cleared.. the only bad areas on the car are the rear passenger floor boards which I have replacement sheet metal for, there is a tiny area in front of drivers rear wheel well (can see in pic) and passenger lower fender, other than that this thing is CLEAN, obviously BESIDES the patina,,, lol... This is a TRUE black and red 327/4 speed SS impala.. ALL OF THE HARD work is done to cruise NOW.. Have the OG fender skirts and new red carpet kit as well.. Dual rear bumper guards, front overrider, the list of cool shit on this thing goes on and on... I was going to fix passenger pans, put in carpet, throw some mexican blankets on seats and cruise, I guarantee this gets more looks than the 100k one at the next car show.... Only things left to do are,,,, needs front end alignment, exhaust system, pans fixed, and convertible top power pump doesn't seem to be working????... Any questions feel free to call me at 805 801 6575 Most of my vehicles sell before auction ends so bid to own....I reserve the right to cancel bids and end auction early.
