All vehicle trades considered, including classics and performance. I can assist with financing and transport as needed.
No doubt about it, the 1964 Impala has stood the test of time.
Think about this. In 1964 the best-selling car in America was the
Chevrolet Impala, with almost 900,000 units sold. More than 50
years later it still looks like something special and remains a
very desirable car. Now what is the best-selling car in America
today, and in another 50 years will people have any admiration for
it? Probably not; this is what makes a classic so special.
This restored Impala certainly makes this point. It is a great
looking car from any angle, with plenty of character and charisma.
This example is solid and rust-free throughout; be sure to look at
all the pictures including the underside and trunk. The body has
been repainted Tuxedo Black and received lots of new trim pieces;
the grille, bumpers, emblems, lenses, moldings, etc. all look
beautiful. It also received new 15" Cragar wheels with BF Goodrich
tires (215 front, 255 rear). It all makes for a very sharp car!
The original 327ci V8 and Powerglide 2-speed have been replaced
with a rebuilt 350ci motor and TH350 3-speed automatic. This is a
great street motor with good oil pressure and plenty of vacuum.
Note the aluminum intake manifold, ram horn exhaust manifolds,
chrome dress-up pieces, and full fan shroud. This car also has
power steering and power brakes, making it easy for anyone to
drive. Further, it has new suspension bushings and ball joints for
a smooth, solid ride that you might not expect from a 53-year-old
car.
The interior is outstanding. I love the black seat covers with
patterned cloth inserts, they really dress up the car nicely. The
door panels, dash, headliner, and carpeting are all excellent too.
It has the original big steering wheel and working horn ring. All
the manual air vents work properly, as do the heater and defroster.
Add the wipers and parking brake to that list too. There is also an
aftermarket digital AM/FM radio and oil / temperature gauges.
This Impala represents one of the great American classics and will
draw a crowd wherever it goes. It's a lot of car for this price
range. A lot of time and money has been spent to ensure things are
looking good and mechanically sound; all you have to do is enjoy
the ride.
