Pics sent to xplantdad. The late great chevy magazine this car was in was in 1985. I was going through the documents original owner sent. Man is it cool to see all that old paper work. we even have the paperwork when he was going to trade impala in on a new 65 Vette. he even sent a dealer promo car with the original box. I hope someone can find and post the Late Great Chevy article it's an interesting story. i would send it to somebody to post but the owner has it and he is out of town.

How is it, understanding my being a picker of nits, that this 1964 Super Sport has a first payment date 0f 11/18/1962?
Wouldn't that be a year too soon?

It appears the hardtop was purchased in 1962 judging by the postage date on the envelope the hardtop information was sent in - evidently for another car - and the payment book must be for the hardtop as well based on the total amount paid ($342). [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

The story on the top is the original owner bought it new for his 62 Impala SS and he kept it for the 64 when he bought that. The blue book is his actual payment book showing the payments he made on the top. The loan docs for the top are there also.

Monthly payments of $14.25. Wow! Times have changed. Now that is what you pay for dinner!

It's the return gas line, Chevrolet started putting those on the 409 motors in 1963
