Wife's Impala
 

Well after thorough deliberations, we have decided that we will keep it.:)
I am not giving it away after having spent so much on it over the years. It just needs a little re-freshing. My brother is going to take the engine out and apart. Re-seal everything and replace anything if needed while apart. Also detail engine compartment again while it is empty. Re-paint everything on engine and re-install. While this is happening, we are going to sand it all back down and repair a few spots and paint it back to the original Light metallic blue. wife is against that color but I think it will look nice. Get it back more original and hit some shows with it. It is really a nice car for a 41 year old vehicle. I have already replaced front fenders with an NOS one and one used, 2 new rear quarters, rebuildt tranny and so many things I would be typing for an hour. So, might as well hang on to it. During the Super Chevy show in St. Louis, we realized there were no 71-76 Impalas. Hers is the custom model with the sloping rear window and vented trunk. I was joking with 03JG Mike that I was driving it to him for a paint job when we got back. :rotfl: Here are a few pics in case you havent seen it before.
What would you guys think of a rear wing??? sure be different huh.

I say keep it!

Don't see too many of that body Impala around, looks nice! That's actually got very similar lines to the first generation Monte.

Looks AWESOME!

That's one sweet Impala!

I agree totally with that.:thumbsup:

I like it, its a sweet car so deff keep it & i say paint it the same color as the monte :thumbsup: that would look awesome on it :thumbsup:

Hi `Jerry & I think your made a wise decision..& also believe that you would regret it `if you sold it...Now, if someone really wanted it & offered you twice what it was worth 2 U, then I would re-consider...It's a super sweet rare Chevy Impala 4-Sure...

Keep us updated on your updates with new pictures :thumbsup:
I think Hunter should work & save `up his $'s & buy it in the future ? Maybe ? LOL

Please don't put a wing on it. :thumbsdown:

In '67 Chevy had a color called Nantucket Blue that I think would look absolutely gorgeous on that Imp. :thumbsup:
