You are looking at an all original 1969 Chevrolet Impala Convertible equipped with a big block 396 moto, ice cold air conditioning ( possibly with original Freon!) power brakes and power steering with power top. This is about as original as they come, never painted and has not seen rain in years. Underneath it looks like a year old car with not a spec of rust to be seen nor is there any bondo, filler or other product masking some unknown flaw that will show up a few months or years down the road. Engine runs like a Swiss watch, transmission shifts flawlessly and car is a pleasure to drive. There is no disappointments here. It is a 50 year old car that has the patina of a 1-2 year old car. Maybe it was at Woodstock but who knows. I am now not using it and I have not driven it in at least 6 months, I always keep it full of 100LL aviation fuel which has a shelf life of about 5-8 years so there is never a worry about varnish or sludge etc and it is rarely out of my hanger except for a wash. It is time to sell off some of my toys. I hate to part with her but someone else will get to use it and enjoy. It is available to see in Wellington Florida
