I have dropped my price quite a bit. If u can find a 61 built like this one for less I will match the price.
There have been some confusion about the Impala. It is a Hard Top, so no Pillars. The windows roll down and then it it wide open space, so the windows seal into the weatherstripping.
Had to Relist due to non paying bidder. Please don't bid if u do not have the funds.
61 Impala Street Rod
Has NEW 357ci Roller motor with 100 miles on it, and still currently has Edelbrock Break In Oil an
I am Retired Military and only selling due to recent health issues. Spent over 2 years building this 1 yr only 1961 Impala. I put the best of performance parts and pieces that I could afford and would work well together. Close to 30k put in to this car with all Receipts and Labor Paper work to come with sale. Overall very happy with how she came out. I want it to go to a good home and some one that will drive her. These Impalas are getting very hard to find in this condition and price range. Thanks for looking
Body is 95% Patina and has been Prepped and Painted with 2 Coats of Eastwood 2K Clear. Only has two rust spots on passenger front and rear fenders about the size of a half dollar. Also car comes Complete with Every single piece of Glass and Stainless Trim, which is typically missing on these cars, as well as Front and Rear bumpers complete and Chrome in very good shape for age.

New Smooth and Coated Summit Racing 2 1/2" Ram Horn Manifolds with new custom 2 1/2" exhaust all the way back that exit in front of rear wheels. The system comes with custom Spin Tech Pro Street 9000 performance mufflers that sound Out of this World. I replaced the Flo Master 2 Chamber Mufflers with the Spin Techs. Night and Day difference with Performance and Sound. In the pics the exhaust exits behind the rear tires, but with newly installed Mufflers I had the pipes cut to exit in front of rear tires. I think it looks and sounds better that way. Not for the faint of heart, that is for sure.

Seats are original to car and all there, may want to reupholster if you want a show interior. Also comes with Headliner bows and visors that were original.I have put a lot of hard work and over 25k into my Impala.
