Vehicle Detail

1965 Impala SS Convertible. A true Super Sport. Purchased in 1985. Always stored in a garage. Drove 3-5 times a year. We have loved this car. Drove it to our wedding 22 years ago. Now we are downsizing. Time to pass this car onto someone who will drive it and enjoy. Call us (260) 710-5557 or email for questions. We are happy to provide as much information as possible. 327 V-8 was rebuilt around 1990. The fender skirts were added about then. Exhaust replaced September 2013. It has a Hurst shifter next to the console. We have the tree shifter that is ready to reconnect. Mechanically very strong. Always starts and drives great. The odometer stopped working at just over 100K after the engine was rebuilt. Actual mileage is estimated to be 105,000. Additional parts that will be sold with the car: New exterior door handles Hood insulation Extra rear bumper Car cover Shop manual SS Hubcaps Wire spoke hubcaps Additional details: The top goes up and down without any issues and is in good shape with no rips or tears. It has an AM-FM stereo with Pioneer speakers. The body and chrome is very good. The seats and interior are very good with only a few flaws. The car did not originally have the fender skirts. I bought it with the Chevy spoke wheel covers. I have a full set of SS wheel covers. The spoke wheel covers did not fit under the fender skirts so I run the SS covers in the back and the spokes on the front. A little unique, but I just like the looks of the spokes. I know of no mechanical concerns that would prevent you from driving a long distance (1000+ miles). But I have never done this so I cannot speak from experience. I have driven the Impala 100+ miles to the James Dean Car Show. I also drove it once or twice a year to a lake cottage about 80 miles away. I never had any issues. The tires are TA Radials. They still look good but they are about 20 years old. Over the winter they get a little soft, but they hold air all summer. They have never gone flat. Very good tread. I believe the brakes are good. It does not use any brake fluid and brakes smoothly. The car is a three speed with a Hurst shifter. When we had the new exhaust system installed in September, we also had the bushings and/or spacers in the shifter replaced. It is shifting better than ever. Mechanic reported that the transmission was fine. I would say the lighting system is very good. The headlights are all good. The last time I checked the tail-lights were all working. It seems like every couple of years one of the bulbs will stop working. I will take some sandpaper to the bottom of the bulb and the connection. This has always fixed it. The back-up lights do not work. The front left turn signal works if you keep a light pressure on the turn signal lever. Otherwise only the rear left signal works. There are no issues with the right turn signal. Info from identification plate on the firewall inside the engine compartment: ST65 16667EUC 5234 Body T9815 R2 paint I have described the car to the best of my ability. The car is sold As Is.
