Frank, It's all a matter of terminology. To some, "original" means original components, restored or not. To others, it means original driveline. To still others, it means unrestored original components.

I love the people who describe their car as "survivor", then go on to say it was repainted!!

I didn't intend to get a debate started here. I was just posting pictures of a nice looking and fairly rare car. I never said the car was a survivor. The story behind this Impala is that the current owners brother bought the car new. He drove it for a few years and lost interest in it. He parked it in an old barn on his Dad's property and basically forgot about it. He died a several years ago. The dad sold the property a few years ago and called his other son and told him that if he wanted the car he needed to come get it. He had forgotten about the car. He got the car and fixed it up. He added some chrome pieces under the hood, which I wouldn't have done. According to him the car sat in the barn for over 20 years. I don't care if the story is true or not. I would like to own the car.
