    Snagged this 66 impala convertible out of the Ames Iowa Craigslist last weekend. Factory air car, power top works great, 327 factory 4 barrel powerglide, been driving it around with the 13" lowrider wheels on it. Interior is clean and it just needs electricals sorted all the way out and a decent paint job put over the body repairs.... I'm thinking (GASP!) lowrider as i already have a custom, a gasser, a hot rod and a muscle car.. but

    I am open to ideas... post some photos of 66 impala convertibles that you like and maybe we'll not put pumps and dumps on this one.

    Thanks!

  2. Lowrider style paint=cool. 13s and hydros...not so much. Looooower it, run wires or Supremes. Drive.
     
  3. Stock appearing right down to steering wheel,but with LS6/overdrive combo

    A resto wouldn't be that bad. Those are great cruisers.
