Re: Royal info wanted
Hey, Belair62, I had a 61 Impala Convert Red white top 283 170hp Powerglide, in high school. It was orginally my mothers car. Just before I turned 16 they gave it to me. The rear end was starting to howl. Since we owned a scrap yard we had a '63 Biscayne 2 dr sedan with a 4:11 posi. Swapped the whole pig into the '61. The day I turn 16 I had the car parked in front of the house and some drunks in a pick up slamed into the frontend. My parents saw it, I slept through it. Woke up next day walked around the backend went to open the drivers door and it was stuck. I stepped back and saw my front end was now customized.
Well, at one of my uncles yards, down from ours, they had a '61 BelAir with a good front clip. You'll never guess. The front fenders where FIBERGLASS. By the time the car came back from the body shop we had a 1960 Impala come in with a 348. I couldn't pass it up. So now I had a 348, 4:11 Covertible that got it's rearend kicked everytime I went up against one of those new 1967 Camaro SS 350. Oh, well.life is good. LOL
