Vehicle Detail

This listing's for a 1962 Chevrolet Impala, 2-door sport coupe that was built @ the Baltimore, Maryland plant. The 230,840th car off the line; it was originally equipped w/ a V8 (FYI: approx. 704,900 IMPALAS were built in '62). I'm certain it wasn't a 409, but I can't confirm whether it was a 327 or 283 as the original engine is long gone along w/ the fender V's. I haven't decoded the trim tag yet, but the original paint appears to have been Nassau Blue (914); with blue cloth & vinyl trim over bench seats (842). The car now sits in black primer, with the original interior, moldings & emblems (-fender V's). The cab of the car is in excellent shape. Both doors are in great shape. Fenders are workable. Hood & trunk are decent. Car doesn't appear to have body filler in it anywhere. Nice, original heavy bumpers. Restorable original grille & taillight panel.Quarter-panels, rockers, floors, side moldings & emblems probably need to be replaced, the standard things with these cars; however the exterior is better than average for an east coast built Impala @ this price-point. The original interior of the car is there with a nice, restorable dashboard. All interior pieces are there, seat brackets, etc. Door panels, seat covers, carpet & headliner need to be replaced. Car has a nice, straight X-frame & it doesn't appear to have ever been "lowridered."Very clean engine bay. CLEAR TITLE! All things considered, this is a very solid project car. Not much on it you can't do yourself & the low reserve means you don't have to treat it like a museum piece. No engine means you can build it how you want: 409, stroker, crate engine, etc. Make great restoration, Super Sport 409 clone, custom rod, rat rod, lowrider or even a gasser. Excellent father & son project car as well. Again, clear title & since this is a non-running car, it'll have to be transported. Transport of vehicle winning bidder's responsibility; but I do understand if you can't pick it up right away. MAY be able to work something out within the Carolinas for a small fee. I also have just about everything you need in stock to complete this car in our actual, physical restoration shop in Albemarle, North Carolina; about 50 miles south east of Charlotte. @ Russell's Impala Parts we have been restoring & selling parts for 1958, 1959, 1960, 1961, 1962, 1963 & 1964 Chevrolet Impalas, Bel Airs & Biscaynes & ONLY those cars for 30+ years! Have NOS, original & reproduction parts in stock; several parts cars in back!Call me, Ray @ (704)254-7672, Twitter: @DarthKthulhu, eMail: darthcthulhu@me.com or message me here with any questions about this '62, parts, or anything else. Thanks for reading my long-winded listing, I love these cars & want you to love them too so I try to be as upfront as I can on the history & condition of our cars & have sold everything from a restored '63 SS 409 convertible to rough '64 9-passenger wagon on eBay with no complaints & 100% feedback. Small PayPal deposit required in 3 days of auction close refundable if you find my listing to be erroneous in any way upon inspection of the car. Thanks again & happy bidding!
