1966 Impala SS Convertible 396---#'s Matching, Exceptional example world-wide.

Last owner of 20 + years purchased this fine example of american heritage from a high-end. nationally renowned. collector auto auction. Car was then placed into climate controled storage facility to ensure procurement. Car was revealed in recent days!! This 1966 Impala SS Convertible 396 is one of the finest examples AVAILABLE in todays market. Over a 20 year old restoration----looks like restoration was completed 3 weeks ago. 100% #'s matching example. Complete original proof of build sheet from exact options that went with this car from new is not available. but all options are believed to be 100%. From the arrow staight metal & superb paint. to the new bolts and fantistic chrome-------this impala is of high museum/show quality and caliber. This car has not been advertised or offered publicly in the last 20 + years (hemmings etc. ). Now available (by auction venue) to the market for the serious buyer/collector world-wide. Given the magnitude of the make. model. options----mixed with condition & color combination------is truly a magnificent find!! For serious buying questions please feel free to call me direct-----please however understand that this will be treated in terms of an auction & reserve money will NOT be discussed---if a potential buyer would like to make an early offer & committment. based on conversational agreements (prior to auction's end) this would be the only exception. Side note: The Vin # verfies this car was built in St. Louis. Mo----not Canada. Build sheet verification records for U. S. built chevrolets prior to 1977 (to our research & knowledge) do not exist. List of the "not so noticeable yet notable" options: Turbo hydramatic. power steering. power brakes. confortron AC. power windows. 4 way power driver bucket seat. factory AM/FM radio with rear speaker. factory comfort grip wood steering wheel. factory cruise control. front & rear bumper guards. tilt steering wheel. Also. car has 10 miles on the odometer------we believe this represents miles driven since restoration. CLEAR TITLE ready for transaction. Thank you for your interest. Regards. /p> Brett-------direct line (765) 438-1127. Extremely minor flaws do exist-----although. these are extremely minor----given the cars level of quality in restoration & in storage. Examples: 2 very small spots on convertible top. Some of the stainless is not perfect or "brand new" in appearance. Some of the orange paint on the engine has peeled. Anymore examples. seem to minor to mention or have not been noticed.

Therefore inspections are to be done strictly before auction's end ONLY. Car is offered AS IS. WHERE IS----while an accurate depiction and description of this car has most certainly been attempted. perceptions could always vary. Also. pictures of underneath the car will be available (via e-mail) upon request. at some point Monday September 22. Correction in description: Odometer is not working (my apologies)-----we believe it started at zero after restoration but stopped at ten. Probably something simple. but not for sure and haven't had it checked. Our interpretation is that few miles had been driven since. Thank You again for your interest.
