| “Runs well but no brakes plus clutch does not disengage so does not shift NOT DRIVEABLE generally complete needs restoration barn find very rusty frame and floors great to make into a rat rod . GREAT NEWS!!! Got the old girl running today . RUNS SMOOTH and DOES NOT SMOKE OR RATTLE . Drove it about three blocks...brakes do not work at all . Clutch does not disengage . This car sat in a storage locker 10 years without moving . Only drove it in 1st gear at about 20 miles per . drove and rode ok but cannot shift it even tho all parts are there . I put in Delco coil , points , and condenser which did the trick . Had it running 45 minutes or so and it did not overheat or leak . Runs very smooth and quiet . Muffler has a few holes but still does something . the gas tank and straps are bad so fed it fuel from a febreze bottle .” |

Vehicle description
This is a 1963 Impala RUNS WELL not driveable due to clutch/brake issues . Oil looks good . Has new battery and spark plugs ,points and condenser . Turns over fine . CAR IS VERY RUSTY UNDERNEATH .
Mileage/odometer is in excess of mechanical limits !
LOCAL PICKUP ONLY NO SHIPPING !
Frame is extremely weak and unrepairable from rust holes
Needs floors also .
I think best suited for a rat rod with a custom chassis.
All body panels have some level of rust .
The spare in the trunk has the original 1963 rim/wheel but the tire is worn out .
Doors Hood and Trunk lid open and close just fine so body alignment is good .
Rims are 15 inch Rocket brand with quite a bit of pitting .
Tires are very old with numerous age cracking
Door glass on both sides rolls up and down without issue .
3 speed on the tree original trans .
Original 2 barrel 195 HP 283 engine .
Glass is good shape .
Only obvious body work done is the left front fender just ahead of the driver door.
Rest of car looks unrestored .
Passenger side of body is very straight .
Driver side has several dents/dings
All original interior .
Back seat is excellent while front is rough but all there .
Grille is excellent but surrounding trim is rough .
Dash looks pretty decent still has good glovebox liner .
Built in Janesville Wisconsin and has the rust to prove it .
