Offering a few of my projects from 30 years of building 59's in the next several weeks due to a possible move this fall. Have brother-in-law who is OTR owner/operator with access to 10 car hauling trailer, so I can take it if nessessary. It will only be listed once on ebay, then go to auction with estate sale via Vanderbrinks/proxibid or similar. This project is very similar to the one sold at Lambrects for 9k, but really a more solid car overall at a much lower price. This is a 59 Impala 2 door htp. It was side swiped on the drivers side in the early 70's and has been in storage since. Original white 936A car with turquoise interior. Was a 6cyl/3 speed car, but has no motor or trans in it now. The interior is all there with the exception of the front door panels. There is a replacement door and upper quarter half(with door jamb and inner panel) that comes with it. It will still need lower qtr sections on drivers side. I also have gather a complete set of drivers side trim that is nice and restorable. These pieces all come with the car, but like I said, you will need to purchase left lower qtrs. The floors and trunk floor will need replaced, as they all do, as you can see in the pics. You may also need to do some work to the left wheel tub, although it doesn't look too bad and did not even get into the window post, or it probably would have broken the rear glass. This is definitely a savable car as hard as these are to find and the prices they bring. Not for the faint at heart, but very much repairable. What you see in the pics is what you get, and as I said, I am including a full left side set of trim. The frame looks to be solid in all of the common tor areas. It may need some minor repair in the very rear corners to the gussets. The car rolls and steers easy and tires hold air for easy loading. I also have a tractor to assist. Overseas bidders are welcome, however a tractor/trailer cannot get in my private road, so in the past I have loaded the car on my trailer and met the transport at an agreed on local site at 65109. I have no problem doing this for you , as I have done for several over the years. The car is sold as-is where-is and will not leave the property until all funds have cleared my bank account. Immediate deposit required with buy now options, otherwise full payment expected in 7 days with 1000.00 deposit at end of auction. Buyer is responsible for all shipping cost and arrangements(allow for extra qtr panel unless you want me to cut the lower rusty section off and stick it through the rear seat opening). The car can set here for up to 30 days after auction ends. Will try to ad pics of trunk and trim by tomorrow. Thanks for looking! Watch for others to be listed soon 60 2 dr htp, another 59 2dr htp, 59 Kingswood wagon 9 passenger, and possible 1 one of my convs. These ads are all also going up on local CL and ad sheets, so I do reserve the right to end auctions at any time should I receive a reasonable comittment from a local buyer. However, if you have placed a winning bid or have met the reserve(if this applies to the car you want), then the car is yours and the auction will run its coarse.On Jul-19-14 at 07:57:49 PDT, seller added the following information: Hello, I"m getting tons of questions about other projects. They are buried in storage and with the heat wave next week, it may be a bit before I can get them out and get good descriptions, pictures, and get them listed. Will be digging the 60 2dr htp out this weekend and will be adding pics of the trunk of this 59. It is basic midwest 59 Chevy trunk(about half there and half gone). The nice part is this car has an above average seal channel, which is very nice because those are a little bit of work to repair when they are rotted away. I also have a pic of the extra door that goes with it that I will be adding. The black one laying in the front seat is pretty rusty along the bottom, but I have a better door that goes with the car. I will add more pics tonight. Thanks, DonOn Jul-20-14 at 15:40:52 PDT, seller added the following information: Thanks for everyones patience. Finally got the pics to upload, so you can tell more about the car. The fenders have some small rust and the right has some filler from years ago(rust or dent?). Headlight C-panels and lower fender extensions are all repairable/or not rusted out. Theres about 400, if you have to buy them. The blue door(setting on the wheel) goess with it. Both doors will then be very much usable. The rockers are not rotted out, but the left side has the crash damage towards the rear(by the wheel opening). As you can now see, the front and upper part of the trunk floor are there, but rusted out at the rear center around gas filler neck. The bumper laying on the car goes with it, if you want it. It has some repairable valances on it. You can see all of the front trim on the hood and all of the side trim set to replace the drivers side is laying on the trunk(with the exception of the little short piece, right behind the door opening) I DO NOT have that piece, but do see them on ebay regularly. The decklid is not rotted out in the common "V" area, but it does have some rust that would need work. Just keep in mind it is a midwest car and 56 years old and needs rust repair. It is just as buildable of a car as the one at Lambrecht and actually isn't as rusty in some areas. The only difference is that you will have to replace the upper qtr section and the door jamb. THE OTHER PROJECTS ARE ALL IN STORAGE PACKED TIGHT. I DO NOT HAVE PICTURES, BUT THEY WILL BE LISTED AS I GET THEM OUT. IT MAY BE A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE OF WORK AND A HEATWAVE THIS WEEK AND PROBABLY INTO AUGUST. JUST GIVING EVERYONE A HEADS UP TO KEEPS YOUR EYES OUT. THANKS!
