Hello 68 owners,
I am looking at an all original '68 Impala with 47,000 miles, 409 engine, good chrome, needs battery, paint and seat covers. What is it worth? Is $2500 reasonable?

The 409 engine was discontinued during 1965....does it have a 396?

If it is the right 427 and is running the engine alone is worth well over $2,500! Also look at the frame real close they do rot out
