Re: 1964 Impala SS Convert 409 425HP help
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: mockingbird812</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Bruce - do you have docs verifying 409/425? Hard to tell from your overall photo, but some of that does look like dealership docs. </div></div>Current owner has window sticker verifying car. Plus he is in contact with original owner who has verified what it was when new and where he bought it. We have the ledger sheet from the dealer showing sale price of car $4120.00 minus what they gave him for trade in. I know Doc's are everything with A car like this but how often can you trace entire history and have the original owner verify it all for you in writing plus hava a article published from 25 years ago basically saying what we already new.
Interesting story in the Late great chevy article from 1985 original owner states that he traded car in on a 65 Vette (have that doc also) they called him a few months later and said they couldn't sell car because of the "big motor" and that they were going to put a 327 in it would he be interested in buying original motor. He bought it we have the check he wrote and the reciept from the dealer. Original owner hung on to motor and in 1974 second owner was selling car and original owner bought it back and reunited motor to car. original owner and his step son owned car until around 2005 when it came to my area.
