My rare find

[STLfirewood]

I answered and ad for a person needing skid steer work. He said part of the job was pushing 5 junk cars out of the woods. I met up to look at the job and set up a time to start. I made a deal for one of the cars. I am going to take 3 hours off the bill. The cars have been siting in the woods for 25 years. The car I'm geting is a 1966 Impala SS 327 conv't. It's all complete and all origional. I know this isn;t the most sought after car there is but it's a good find none the less. I'll take pics and post. I'm getting it tomorrow.

Rough piece, but #'s match and it might be worth it, after all most old stuff needs interior, quarters etc. it might look worse than it is! Good luck and nice chevy (potentially). MDS.

Big Chevy convertibles weren't as common as the A bodies. I don't recall seeing many 67 SS convertibles. As long as the top bows are in reasonable shape, you should be able to find everything else.

Happy parts hunting!

even though from the pictures it looks like it has factory air you have one hell of a chore before you.

I'm not going to keep the car. I'm going to sell it as soon as it hits the driveway. I just didn't want to see it hit the crusher. I traded 3 hrs of skid steer work for it. I was charging $65 an hour for the work so I have $195 in the car. I'm hoping to get at least $1500 for it. I have been told by chevy guys it could be worth anywhere from $1500 to $5000. It just depends who is looking at the time.

Good to see you saved it from death, just like taking in old unwanted chainsaws. I wouldn't keep it anyways, automatic.....

Well I am a Chevy guy. I have owned a couple old Impala Super Sports and a Chevy II Super Sport. And I think that car is worth about $195.00.
