This is my 1965 Chevrolet Impala 2 door hardtop that I am selling at NO RESERVE!!! This car comes with all the parts to make it into a show winner all it needs is you. This car has been converted to power brakes. It has drilled and vented front discs. The rear brakes are drums, but have been rebuilt. I replaced the front metal brake lines and the rear rubber line. It has a new booster and master cylinder. The wheels are 17 inch American Racing torque thrust. The rear tires are in great shape with less than 500 miles on them. The front tires have a bit of cracking in the side walls. The car has 2 inch drop spindles and tubular upper control arms with offset shafts installed. It has a new champion radiator with dual electric fans running off a thermostat. Heater hoses and all other rubber lines have also been replaced. It has a new battery and cables. Edelbrock carb sets on a new Holley dominator intake. New aluminum valve covers and air cleaner. New plugs and accel wires. I converted the ignition system to an electronic billet distributor which is much more reliable than the stock points. I replaced the bushings that needed it with polyurethane ones. It has new tie rod ends. The th350 transmission has a fresh rebuild through Tooley's transmission in Talbott Tn. The rear end housing fluid has also been changed to synthetic fluid. It has dual exhaust that was installed before I bought the car. I believe it is either flowmasters or dynomax mufflers. The writing faces towards the floor pan so I am not sure. I do know that it sounds amazing. The full length headers have been painted and heat wrap has been applied, I love the look of the wrapped headers. The car has a very fast throttle response and a streetable cam. When you kick it down the car takes off like a rocket. It will do long smokey burnouts, but I do baby the car with the price of tires and such. This car drives better than most new ones. With the front end lowered it gets the nose under the wind and it feels great on ther road. I have replaced some of the rubber seals and have more new seals for the doors that will come with the car. I am also including a new carpet, front and rear bench seat upholstery, rear package tray, front door panels(unassembled) key blanks, full set of new rear tail lights and trim rings. The car still has the original headliner in great condition. I have already upholstered the rear bench seat. The rear panels are also original and in great condition. I have all new emblems including the impala letters which are n.o.s. and still in o.e. plastic. the 327 flag emblems are installed as is the front chevrolet badge which can be seen in the pictures. I have all the interior including kick panels. Check out the photos. All parts are n.o.s., year one, and other quality venders even the felt for the inner windows is included. I have a few thousand in interior parts so the inside will look as good or better than it did in 1965. Now for what is needed the upholstery has not been installed because the front and rear window seals need to be resealed. There is a hole in the passanger floor pan from the leaking front window seal(see picture). The lip of the trunk lid needs work and the drivers side rear quarter was struck by an old lady in a grocery store parking lot in the 80's. The previous owner had a cheap bondo job to fix that. The car is straight as can be seen in the photos. There are small pin holes in the drivers side front floor pan ( leaky front window again ). The rest of the floor is in excellent condition. The trunk has a few small pin holes in it ( leaky rear window ). I do believe I caught the trunk pan in time as it is solid. Overall the metal is great a few spots hear and there but it is 48 yrs. old. I do have the original paper work such as build sheet, which I found under the rear seat, and protecto plate with the factory impala option books, original window sticker etc. The car was originaly maroon with a black interior. The aluminum trim is shiny and complete. I also kept all the original parts that I have replaced. If you want to put it back to o.e. specs these will be a great help. I will have to look, but I may have the o.e. intake and carb, but not sure about that. I do have the o.e. air cleaner, valve covers, front spindles, distributor, and a few other parts. The car has the original jack, spare rim, but I have never had the o.e. jack base. I will add more information as I can recall it, there are probably more new parts that I have not remembered. My next move was to install an aftermarket A/C . Replace the front and rear window seals. Clear coat the faded paint and enjoy! I personaly would not repaint, but that is the choice of the new owner. To many idiots to ding an expensive paint job in a store parking lot for my taste. If you have any questions feel free to email me. The car will go no where untill full payment is made. Shipping is buyers responsibility. No pay pal. Cash only. If you wish to inspect it just let me know it sets on hwy 92 in Rutledge TN.
