Chevrolet Impala 1965 Description
FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION we have for sale a real Muscle Car. Past owner spent lots of money on this 1965 Impala.

OVER 70 PICTURES BELOW, UST SCROLL DOWN TO SEE THEM!
ENIGNE: The 454 engine is fresh and runs good. It is dripping in chrome and runs I hear no knocks or pings.
TRANSMISSION: The Borg Warner 5 speed manual tranmission shifts good, feel no slip or chatter in the clutch.
REAR-END: Its a 12 bolt with a good highway gearing ratio.
IS THIS A REAL SUPER SPORT CAR? It looks like one, ut I don't know for sure. Come inspect it and make your own decision.
BRAKES: Disc in front and drums in rear. The front disc have the vented rotors, ast owner said they were by Wilwood. It consider the brakes good.
STEERING: The car is power steering, t steers easy, nfact too easy for a Muscle Car. I think you can buy a screw in pressure reducer for these after market power steering pumps. You may like the feel, think it steers like a luxury car, ot a Muscle Car.
PAINT JOB: The paint is not as good as the pictures show. I took 2 sets of pictures in different light and the paint still looked great. It looks like to me most parts were off when the car was paint, hats a good thing. The painter did not block sand the car as good as it needed to be for a dark color paint job. The area between the top turn and the crease on the side has minor waves that show up on the dark colored paint job. The shine is real good, ut the texture of the paint is dry in places. The owner spent a lot of money on this car, e should have spent a little more on the paint job. I see no rust bubbles in the paint.
BODY:I consider this a solid body, ome of the floor bottoms have been replaced and the trunk may have had a couple of metal patches. It is clean on the under side and no thick under coating. The frame looks solid to me.
INTERIOR: The interior is nice, arpet good, oor panels good, eat covers show no wear, ear package tray good, eadliner looks new, ut has wrinkles.
STEERING COLUMN: Its a high dollar title after market, t looks like a IDIDIT or Flaming river.
GLASS: Windshield is good, f you look real hard you can see a very faint wiper mark on the right side. Side window good, ack window good with some minor scuffs. The vent window regulator is missing on the drivers side and window crank on one back window.
CHROME: Bumpers fair, ut not new, hey have some scuffs, omepitts and are missing corner bumper bolts. The window stainless is nice, he door handles look new.
HOOD SCOOP: Its not my taste, ut may son Kieth loves it, e is 43 years old and I'm 69. A round hole was cut, would put a patch in it if I painted the car.
LIGHTS: Headlights work, ail lights work, rake lights work, urn signals work. The tail lights are LED and bright, he headlights look like a after market brighter light. The inside dome lights have LED bulbs.
SPEEDOMETER WORKS! HORN NOT WORKING! FACTORY VACUUM GAUGE NOT WORKING! GAS GAUGE WORKING!
WIPER MOTOR IS BAD!
WHY DON'T I FIX EVERYTHING? The cost and I have too much work to do. I'm 69 years old and play with this stuff. The car is very drivable the way it is, ast owner liked it just the way it is.
GOOD STUFF: Hot fresh 454 engine, speed manual transmission, ood black interior, ood wheels and tires, consider it a good body, ood brakes, ots of suspention inprovements.
BAD STUFF: Weak paint, ipers don't work, verage chrome.
WHERE IS THE CAR LOCATED? Athens, ennessee 37303.
HISTORY: I bought the car from a car restoring friend that lives near Cincinnati, he car was built in Kentucky.
VIN AND TILE: Clear title with a VIN that matches the title. The VIN number is a Kentucky assigned number. This is done if a VIN plate is un-readable or missing. I don't know why to was done on this car, ut its very safe. When this is done in Tennessee a police offier comes out and inspects the car, check is run with the National NICB to make sure the car has no history, ike being stolen, he state then sends a officer out to install the plate. If this bothers you, ust don't buy the car. I'm giving you a good title, t will be bonded, ecause I have dealers insurance that covers it. We are a small time father son operation, ut have the license and insurance. We have no car lot or show room, ut we are dealers to keep things legal.
