1963 impala ss 409 Rag Top

[370454s]

I am going to look at a 63 SS Impala Ragtop this Weekend. The Car is Supposed to be an Original 409/425H.P., With 4 Speed. All there. Needs complete Restoration. Has not been driven in 20+ years. What can I look at to make sure it is The Real Deal? Any Idea what it Might be Worth? More details after I look at it.
Thanks
Mike

Didn't feel like no barge when you took it through the gears........ http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3gears.gif

That would be a very nice find...and will have a good bit of value when completed...I just always thought the 61 and 62 were the best looking.
