that thing is badazz man, I would love to have it, I had a 75 Chevy Caprice back as 1 of my first cars, my mom bought it for $500........How much were you asking for it? It's not really built for speed but a nice runner with headers would make it a really nice........

Chris we were asking 5K for it. Brother is coming over tomorrow to start removing engine. All it really needs are valve guide seals. Oils just seeps in and it smokes for a minute or so then clears up. Just gonna refresh it a little. It will get up and go for a big car. We have a shift kit in the tranny, bigger stall converter, Elderbrock carb and intake and Flowmasters. It will leave a long black mark.

Very nice Impala. Please do not put a wing on it. That body style of Impala isn't made to sport a wing IMO

Totally repainting the engine bay will look amazing. My father in laws cutlass was painted back to stock when it was restored 8 to 10 years ago and it still looks great. Also a guy I know just picked up a barn find Imp just lake that but in green. It's perfect inside and out and he picked it up cheap

What's the difference between a 2-door Impala and a Monte Carlo? That's the question that I get all of the time. LOL. Just kidding. Very nice.

Sweet old Impala! Good choice to keep it. You don't see many like that on the road.
