    dude, do NOT even complain about needing impala parts. i bought my 64 when i was younger and ALOT dumber. i think the steering wheel emblem was the only damned good thing on it. what was i thinking. still got it, might build it someday. i'm living in reality now though. impala bob has alot of stuff, but there's a few others. hubbard's impala parts is one, and i think cl***ic chevy has an impala catalog. it's been a while since i've searched out impala parts.

    Hey thanks guys...

    I have been talking to this guy around the corner about his 60 for a while, he was gonna keep it, but it got hit in the side pretty good recently [​IMG]. It was really straight and solid. now the p***. door is ****ed, as is alot of the quater panel...I could probly get it for dirt cheap now, but Im not sure If I want to deal with the headache... the side is pushed in more than I like to see...
    the windshield is cracked now too, after the accident... If I dont go for it, I wouldnt be suprised if it when to the junkyard, or worse... [​IMG] poor thing. Im pretty bummed to see an otherwise nice original condition old car go out this way, you know? A '60 impala is one of the cars on my "list"...-J.

    I have a California Grille that's had the annodizing stripped off and a couple of headlight rings - real cheap.
    Did ya know the 4 headlight rings are all different? Right and left inside and outside - can't understand why GM would do that.
