1959 Chevrolet Impala Reg Cab 133 WB 2WD

Untitled 4 .style1 text-align: center; .style2 font-size: large; color: #808080; 1959 IMPALA 2 DOOR COUPE HELLO TO ALL. THIS IS OUR FAMILY OWNED 1959 CHEVY IMPALA 2 DOOR COUPE THAT HAS BEEN VERY MILDLY CUSTOMIZED AS YOU CAN SEE. SUPER SHARP CRUISER WITH A SLEEPER MID-YEAR CORVETTE L-79 327CI-350HP MOTOR. PLEASE NOTE: There are no airbags or hydraulics in the car, it has just been lowered. I have NEW front springs and NEW front shocks that go with the car if the new buyer wants to bring the ride height back to normal. My husband and I purchased it in Pennsylvania a couple of years ago, while down there for the classic car show. We always wanted either a 59 or 60 Impala coupe, and since prices on them have been skyrocketing, its been difficult...if not impossible finding one priced reasonably that was reliable enough to be used daily. Once we got it back to NY, we garaged it and worked on it a little at a time, turning it into what it is today, a nicely presentable and cool driver. It has received NEW PAINT, nearly completely NEW INTERIOR and a lot of minor detailing work has been done as well as youll see in the pictures. OPTIONS: Power steering Manual drum brakes Bench seat interior 327ci-350hp Corvette L79 V8 (code HT from 65-67 Corvettes) Automatic transmission on the column Dual rear antennas Dual exhaust exiting behind rear wheels 14 steel wheels with whitewall tires and stock hubcaps Fender skirts Mechanically the hydraulic lifter 327ci-350hp L-79 mid-year Corvette motor is nice and sound with good oil pressure and behaves well. This is a RARE and seriously sought after motor, and ive had several Corvette experts estimate the value at somewhere around $5-6K just for the motor. It is a virtually STOCK motor with correct stock exhaust manifolds, stock 4bbl. carburetor and stock intake manifold as well. Transmission is a stock automatic on the column that shifts good (has a mild shift kit installed). Now as for driving the car, ive taken it out mostly around the neighborhood here and there for a few functions, and sometimes we take it to the Island for a cruise. Brakes work well. Steers nice and swift without too much if any play in the wheel. Overall very sound and reliable car that can be used daily with minor tlc depending on what your likes are. Motor was originally a 283ci 2bbl. V8 that was upgraded some years ago (I do not have the original motor). Like I said, you could get in and drive this car, since its one of those vehicles that doesnt like sitting for long periods of time (the more you drive it, the better it gets). Interior has had a lot of work done. NEWLY reupholstered seats, NEW carpet, NEW Door panels, NEW armrest pads, original headliner (some water stains on it). Dash is original and looks to have never been repainted. Steering wheel has a couple of cracks. Overall a very presentable driver quality interior. Underside is very nice and dry overall, and has a NICE frame, VERY SOLID trunk with some surface rust and a few tiny pinholes. Floorboards are in fairly good shape as well, with no large holes or any major rot evident (they may have been patched in a couple of places but looks solid and clean overall). THIS 1959 CHEVY IMPALA 2 DOOR COUPE IS NOT PERFECT, SO PLEASE LOOK AT PICTURES, ASK QUESTIONS OR COME SEE IT IN PERSON. Paint was recently redone with base-clear coat and looks good with fairly good shine overall as you can see in the pictures. The rear quarters had lower 1-2 quarters installed and there is some filler by lower section of the car, especially by inner wheel wells. Overall a decent job but nowhere near being show quality paintjob. Panel fit is ok for a 50s Chevy but should be adjusted here and there as you see fit (especially by trunk lid and passenger door). Could still use some minor wetsanding and final buffing. Chrome is good for a driver and shows well but would need replacing for anything better. Front drivers side window has cracks. Not working: horn, radio, speedometer-odome
