1962 Impala SS Restomod. Has been mechanically rebuilt from front to back. This car is a Los Angeles built, true SS with factory A/C. Ermine white paint is 80% original. All original steel. The aqua interior is new. Seats, seat foam, sound deadening, carpet, door panels, and kick panels have been replaced. The steering wheel has been refurbished. All interior chrome is in very good condition. The AM radio is original and works. Classic Instruments gauges have been installed. The exterior trim and emblems are in very good condition. Bumpers show some pitting in the chrome but shine bright in sunlight. Despite its original paint and patina, this car has undergone a complete mechanical restoration. I have a binder full of receipts that total over $15,000 in parts alone. Buyer will get binder and photo album detailing the rebuild. This car rides and drives like a new car.
