Default 1961 Impala SS 348/350hp

A few years ago another member helped me get some NOS '61 SS wheel covers for a friend. I found him a set of rust free '61 wheels and he finally got everything mounted and ready. Car was shown at this weekends Goodguys event in Puyallup WA. Sorry for the lackluster pics, I will try to update with better ones next time I see the car in person. Its a real CA-built SS (with SS on the trim tag) and appears to have the original engine. It has the most rust free body I've ever seen on a '61-64 Chevy-bone dry without a pock mark anywhere.

Killer 61. Love Honduras Maroon with Grey guts. Looks to have the rare Vacuum Trunk release.
