1959 Chevrolet Impala Convertible
I bought this car in Gothenburg at the end of summer 1989 and I belive it came to Sweden the same year. Comes originaly with a 348 cui engine with a sixpack intake and it delivers 280Hp. The original gearbox is a three speed manual transmission. The same 348 cui is still in the car but I have upgraded the trans. to a TH700 and the rear end is a 3.72 positraction. Of course I have the original trans. put away for safe keeping.
These photos was taken when I was on my way home from Varberg and Wheels & Wings 2009, the Youtube clip is from that event aswell.
I had the car painted in 1990 and now it's in a big need for a new paintjob, but I have to wait for the right time and $$$.
Below are some older photos of the car, just after I bought it and a few years after that. I had it stored from 2000 until 2006.
