1966 Chevrolet Impala for sale
Current customer rating: (249 votes ) based onI am listing the car on here for one week only. no relisting. Below is the work I have had completed. Once again. I am not a mechanic but will attempt to best describe what I have had done to the car. The reasons I am offering the car up for sale is because I have 3 other vehicles and I honestly want to look for a 1972 GMC Truck. My dad had one when I was a kid and offered it to me when I turned 16. Being a kid. I told him no thanks (all the cool kids had mustangs & camaros) and he sold it. I was a fool! If the car doesn't sell. then I will follow through with my original plan to finish the car and simply keep it.
Jasper 350 V8 Engine (2014): I don't know the horse power or torque. I have driven the car many times down the highway at 70 with no issues and other than that. just cruised around a few local counties in Southern Indiana the last couple years. Radiator (2014): Original was replaced with upgraded unit with fans. I overbought on the radiator because of that 2 mile walk. I have never seen the car warm over 190 degrees. even last month in August when our Southern Indiana heat was at it's finest. Fuel Tank (2014): New fuel tank/sending unit. It gets the gas to your pedal fine. Brakes(2014): It has drums all the way around. They work for me because I don't drive it in the rain or race from stop light to stop light. The brake system has been gone through and any issues fixed. The brakes were the first thing I had fixed on the car as the pedal rested on the floor. Holley Carb (2015): Old one was an import that just didn't get the job done. Lights: All exterior lights work (including brights). The dash lights don't work (Fuse or dirty switch? I don't drive it at night) The turn signal lights work on the dash. Gas guage. speedo. ect work. Clock does not. Other little things here and there. I have spent over $5k on mechanical repairs getting/fixing this car to the point where I can drive it anywhere and not have to worry about that long walk back home again. It's a 50 year old car and drives like a 50 year old car. But it's dependable and doesn't drink alot of gas.
Some things it needs. that I am aware of/would resolve if it doesn't sell:1. ) The vents/defrost don't work. but the fan can be heard running. I don't know if the vent hose(s) is connected. 2. ) The door gaskets/weather stripping are not on. but I am including new ones that I have bought. I haven't installed because I was planning on painting the car. 3. ) Paint / Prep Work. I have drove the car as it is for a couple years now. Anytime I get gas. everyone asks me if I plan on leaving it black/flat black. You can see on the back panels. I have sprayed two different colors of black. This is the plasti dip stuff and can be peeled off. There are a couple of spots on the car where the paint is cracked and one or two (near the mirrors for example) where little bubble are. Currently. I feel the car has character (or viewed as ugly to some) with the paint. But this car would really catch the eyes if it was painted! Review pictures/videos for any other possibly needed body work (I don't know much about bodywork / painting a car). 4. ) Rear window. there is currently no chrome trim on the rear window. Prior owner had them (they were bad shape) and I never put them back on. Figured I would buy a new set when it came time to paint. 5. ) No headliner. I have put various decals / metal signs up there on the metal. I dig it. but if you don't. you will need a headliner. 6. ) Hood. The hood has a hole in it (passenger side) that I tell everyone was from a bullet (maybe it was?) Though it works for now. you can hear the hood "rattle" when you hit a larger bump in the road. Not very loud. but it does kinda annoy me. (you may be able to hear it in the video)7. ) Dash. Has crack in the middle. I bought a dash cover. so for me. problem solved. 8. ) Driver's door panel. I took the bottom piece off (included). If you finish the interior. you will want to replace both panels obviously. 9. ) Seat covers. Currently old and torn. The original vinyl underneath appears to be ok from what I can tell. 10. ) Some chrome has pitting. It add character for the time being.
I have sold many things on Ebay. from small collectibles to massive bullet proof bank teller windows. Every time. I have tried to be as honest and descriptive as possible. With this impala. I am doing the same. I have no idea what the car is worth or what it could be worth when finished. so I am starting auction at $6. 00. You don't see many 66-69 impalas at car shows. I don't know why. I think they have great lines and plenty of room. I am 6'0 tall/260 lbs and can comfortably cruise in this. It sits low and would look really great if bagged. I would not have any guilt selling this to a friend or family member. Though. please remember that this is a 50 year old car. With that said. I have no regrets from buying the car and have enjoyed the time with it. Any questions. please let me know and I will try to answer best of my ability.
I have uploaded two videos. (Copy/paste)First is a walk around while the car is running. https://youtu. be/J_Cr07bjuco
Second is driving the car a couple of miles around back roads and then on highway. http://youtu. be/NoQNhJC_otg
Terms: $500 non refundable deposit via paypal within 24 hours after auction's end or I consider the transaction/bid fraudulent and void the purchase. Cash upon pickup or cashiers check. Full payment due within 7 days. Cashiers Check clears my bank before vehicle/title leaves my possession. I don't have a problem having vehicle ready for your shipper (remember. car sits low) with 2 day advance notice. but only after payment has cleared. I don't mind holding vehicle for a couple weeks after payment has cleared. but request car be picked up by 10/15/2016. Title is clear and in my name. Please review the pictures and videos to ensure you know what you are bidding on. I have been as honest as possible. but no warranty is implied. as this is a 50 year old vehicle and being sold as-is. Thank you for your interest.
