HERE I HAVE FOR SALE IS A REALLY NICE 62 IMPALA 2 DOOR COUPE IN EXCELLENT ORIGINAL CONDITION.THE PREVIOUS OWNER STATES THAT THE 31,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER IS CORRECT AND LOOKING AT THE CAR I WOULD BELIEVE IT TO BE TRUE. THE UNDERCARRIAGE AND FRAME UNDERNEATH IS MINT AND RUST FREE. tHIS IS AN UNRESTORED ORIGINAL IMPALA THAT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION BOTH IN APPEARANCE AND DRIVEABILITY. THE ONLY RUST ON THE CAR IS A LITTLE SPOT ON THE HOOD AND ON THE BACKS OF THE 1/4'S. THE CAR LIVED THE MAJORITY OF ITS PAMPERED LIFE IN NORTH CAROLINA EXPLAINING ITS LACK OF CORROSION. THE CARS OPTIONS ARE 2 SPEED POWERGLIDE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, AM RADIO WITH REAR ANTENNA, POWER STEERING, AND CLOCK. THE 283 2 BARREL ENGINE STARTS EFFORTLESSLY AND RUNS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. WHEN IDLING YOU COULD REST A CUP OF COFFEE ON THE AIR CLEANER AND THERES HARDLY A RIPPLE! IT HAS PLENTY OF POWER WITH THIS VERY DEPENDABLE DRIVETRAIN. I CONTEMPLATED METAMORPHASIZING THE CAR INTO A 409 SS CLONE BUT COULDNT BRING MYSELF TO DISECTING SUCH A NICE RUNNING CAR! THGE PAINT IS NOT SHOW WORTHY BUT CERTAINLY MUCH BETTER THAN JUST PRESENTABLE. THE ONLY THINGS NOT WORKING ARE THE TYPICAL.....THE CLOCK AND THE RADIO. IVE SEEN CARS OF THIS CALIBER BRING IN THE HIGH TEENS AND EVEN LOW TWENTIES SO THE PERSON(S) BIDDING ON THIS ONE WILL BE PLEASANTLY SURPRISED WHEN THE RESERVE IS MET MUCH, MUCH SOONER. I DONT HAVE A BUY IT NOW PRICE AND PLAN ON LETTING THE AUCTION REACH ITS MATURITY UNLESS SOMEONE MAKES A LEGITIMATE CASH OFFER THAT I FIND SIMPLY IRRESISTABLE. THE CAR IS ACTUALLY EASY ON FUEL ALSO AND CRUISES DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 80 MILES PER HOUR WITHOUT A SHAKE. SHIMMY RATTLE. OR EVEN A WIND NOISE! WHICH BRINGS UP ANOTHER POINT WHICH IS HOW WELL THE DOORS, HOOD AND TRUNK SHUT, AND HOW EFFORTLESSLY AND EXCELLENT ALL OF THE WIDOWS ROLL UP AND DOWN. THAT IS THE BEAUTY OF AN ORIGINAL CAR AS OPPOSED TO RESTORED WITH NEW WEATHWERSTRIPS.....IT USUALLY MAKES SHUTTING THE DOORS AND TRUNK A TASK, AND THE OWNER WOULD HAVE TO HAVE A SHWARZENNAGER PHYSIQUE! LIKE MOST 49 YEAR OLD UNRESTORED ORIGINAL DRIVEN CARS IT HAS FLAWS....SMALL TEAR IN FRT SEAT, SCRAPE IN REAR BUMPER, AND PROBABLY OTHER MINOR INCIDENTALS TOO MINOR TO MENTION AS FAR AS PAYMENT I WILL REQUIRE A NON-REFUNDABLE 500.00 DEPOSIT VIA PAY-PAL IMMEDIATLY AT AUCTIONS END, AND FULL PAYMENT WITHIN 7 DAYS....NO EXCEPTIONS. PLEASE ASK ANY AND ALL QUESTIONS PRIOR TO AUCTIONS END. GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY BIDDING On Nov-07-11 at 15:30:14 PST, seller added the following information: Someone just asked if the car is numbers matching and the answer is yes it is from engine to rearOn Nov-09-11 at 12:38:00 PST, seller added the following information: UPON CLOSER INSPECTION I BELIEVE THE CAR TO BE WEARING ITS ORIGINAL PAINT! THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO EVIDENCE OF A RE-SPRAY WHATSOEVER AS FAR AS OVERSPRAY ON MOULDINGS, JAMBS, ETC. THIS MEANS THAT AS FAR AS RUST OR BONDO NOTHING IS HIDING UNDER A MAACO 299.00 SPECIAL! WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT IT IS! I CAN'T STRESS ENOUGH WHAT AN OVERALL BEAUTIFUL ORIGINAL 49 YEAR OLD CAR THIS IS. ONE WOULD BE HARD PRESSED TO FIND A NICER EXAMPLE ESPECIALLY AT THE PRICE I'M LOOKING FOR!
