I just got a call from a friend who's hauling out a `64 SS Impala to a boneyard--says it's rough but salvageable.
How do you decipher the tag out on these cars to determine what drivetrain/options it came with?
Sure would hate to see this one end up as scrap metal if it's worth saving.
TIA

for the $500 he is getting from the junkyard, you should buy it.

I would pick it up. Might have some juicy options. Buckets or console if it was ordered that way, could have a posi or a tach dash, maybe a 327 engine. Its good to check it out for sure!

It is a bucket seat/console car, gold on gold.

Just let it be Matt. Stop licking your lips. Not everything out there is fodder for your flipping. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/rolleyes.gif

Verne, I was just making a point to check it out as it could be something neat or special. I would hate to see it go to the crusher if the car and/or parts on the car could be saved for someone elses restoration. PM sent to you.

If it was local to me... I'd gladly pay scrap value.
