Description for Chevrolet Impala 1966
Allow me to begin describing this beautiful 1966 Chevy Impala from a Vanity standpoint. I’ve driven lots of classics but none has been more enjoyable than this one. EVERYWHERE I drive her people stop and stare as I’m passing by or they come up to her while I’m stopped somewhere. Almost daily as I’m driving down the highway people will pull up beside me. Allow me to digress for a moment………If I let them pull up next to me. Often when they’re trying to go around me I’ll give her some gas and show them that she isn’t simply a slow-cruiser. She will get up and go very quickly. You’ll see pictures with the speedometer up to almost 85 MPH. But people will pull up next to me and give me a thumbs up. She is simply a gorgeous car. The paint as you’ll notice in the pictures looks like glass. Alright time for the “meaty” stuff. I purchased this car from a 75 year old man who had the vehicle totally restored in the last 1 ½ years. He invested almost $30k in to the car. I’m not going to play the games that most do saying that the 60000 miles on the car are original miles. But in principle this car has better miles than that! It only has 4500 miles on it after the restoration which consisted of a completely rebuilt 327 engine.

If you’re looking for one of these that resembles (but not as clean) this car from a distance of about 25 yards and you’re only tooling it around town on Sundays then you can probably find one of those for around $14-16k. But if you’re looking for one that is SUPER CLEAN a head-turner both far away and up close and one you can gas up and drive across country not just your city or county but from coast to coast and have no worries or issues then this is your car. Whoever purchases this vehicle will be super pleased with their purchase. Call Derrick with any questions 469-667-8016 Over 100 pictures available at www.sfautomotive.net
