Description:

1964 Chevrolet Impala

Here's a rare chance to buy a very nice Impala SS at a reasonable price! One of our storage clients recently sold his home, nd has no room for this car any more. Present owner bought this car back in the mid 80's and has slowly but very carefully restored it over the years. There are still a few things to do, ut very few....A/C needs to be hooked up (components included), nd headliner needs to be replaced (material included). There are a few boxes of spare parts that are OEM, ome new and some correct used pieces. Original engine was a 283 V8, ut now it has a sweet running 327 V8. Powerglide is original, nd he said it has always leaked a tiny bit but it shifts fine. There's a folder full of receipts, framed portrait, ome car show trophies, nd manuals that are included with the sale. There is no title for this car due to it's age but we had to check clear to list the car.
The Following Statement Is Directly To Me From the Owner:

My Personal Opinion:


I have personally looked the car over and driven it. I have reviewed all of the documentation that the owner provided, now the owner personally, nd know the shop owner personally who did the body and paint. This is not a Barrett Jackson car, ut it's also not $75000.00. The car runs and drives very nicely, ody and paint work appears to have been done correctly, nd the trim is in nice condition. I have had the car up on a lift and the frame appears to be very solid. The center well in the trunk floor has been replaced at some point and a nice job done with that.A few odds and ends need doing in the interior, ut overall very presentable. If I owned the car, 'd install the A/C and headliner then drive it just the way it is. Having been a licensed Vermont auto dealer for 34 years, 'd would call this car an 8 out of 10...The car is for sale locally, nd I have to reserve the right to end this auction early but I will not end the auction if I have bids. I encourage you to ask questions before bidding. This car is 51 years old, nd does not belong to me. Although I believe that the information provided to me to be accurate, can not be held responsible. If you want to inspect the car before bidding, all me at 802-748-6373 and we can set up an appointment.
