Dear Ladies and Gentleman -

I am glad I happened upon this forum and in advance, would appreciate your tolerance of a "newbie".

I have located a very nice 1963 impala ss equipped with 409 2 x 4 barrel carb in truly excellent, effectively in show condition. I am an amateur at these matters and would respectfully request referrals to persons who have expertise with evaluation of and pricing of 1962-1965 impalas. I would be willing to compensate one or two respected individuals for their time over the phone, payment via check. I have completely inspected and driven this vehicle (spent over 4 hours) but hemmingways and oldcarscm suggest my price offer would be far too low relative to what the owner has "listed" the vehicle at, hence my request for expertise, either via this forum or via private e-mail. I am located in TX and the vehicle is nearby.

I appreciate your feedback and assistance.

LUND175

John, North Texas does cover a lot of ground. I would think that you have come to the right place for some knowledgable Vintage Chevrolet owners. I live in Central Texas and I would like to reccomend that you get in touch with some member of The Lone Star Region of VCCA. How can you do that? here is a link to their website: Lone Star Region of VCCA

Now I have even a better idea, With you having the itch for a 63 Impala maybe I would show up at their January Club meeting . January 8, 2012 in Arlington, Texas on:
Sun 01/08/2012
Times:02:30
at
Place:Arlington Recreation Center
Address:1000 Eunice Street, Arlington, TX 76010
Organizer:Lone Star Region VCCA
Just tell them that MrMack sent you, if you survive, then maybe you will want to join up and get all the perks of belonging to LSR and VCCA! Really they are a great bunch of folks.

This won't cost anywhere near the price of a tank of gasoline for a 63 Impala...
