1969 Chevrolet Impala Convertible 396 V8 Auto Factory A/C Power Steering – Classic!

This auction is for a used 1969 Chevy Impala Convertible in running condition.

I’m representing a local bank in this auction. The bank repossessed this vehicle from a classic car enthusiast. The bank has clear title in the bank’s name – this is an Oklahoma title and the title reflects “Repo.”

This car is in Edmond Oklahoma. You can contact me (Marc at 405-503-8496) for any questions you might have. I’m a longtime seller on eBay with a 100% feedback rating and I intend to represent this Impala as accurately and honestly as possible and will promptly answer any questions. If you are local I would strongly encourage you to inspect this car in person. I will also accommodate any local PPI’s (pre-purchase inspections) before the auction ends.

The odometer currently shows 7000 assume it’s 107,000 - title says Odometer “Exempt”. Believed to have been in storage for the past 4 years (last tagged in 2013). The exterior color is Butternut Yellow with a White convertible top. Interior is Green.

Note: I do not know the repair or service history of this Impala since it was a repo. I’m not a mechanic but a “car guy” and here are my observations of the car:

The Good:

  • Runs and drives
  • Fluids looked good and clean at the time of repo (have not been changed since the repo)
  • Desirable 396 V8 engine rated at 256 hp
  • Auto transmission, shifts correctly
  • Engine and transmission assumed to be original to the car
  • Starts right up (new battery)
  • No visible smoke white or gray from exhaust
  • Frame appears in good shape and not rusted away
  • Floor panels not rusted away
  • Trunk not rusted away
  • All four tires are matching, have good tread and are not rotted
  • Convertible top looks like it was replaced recently, in very good condition with no tears or rips and a glass back window.
  • Convertible top motor goes up and down automatically and smoothly using up/down switch
  • Body is straight and solid with some minor dents/dings
  • Chrome bumpers and in good shape (minor nicks and dents but no rust)
  • Seats appear to be original and have a few cracks in the vinyl on the sides
  • Carpet in good condition
  • Checked most of the accessories and they all appeared to work except the air conditioning - noted below
  • Convertible top boot cover included and in good shape


Issues Noticed:

  • Engine runs a little rough
  • Exhaust has some pin size holes
  • Transmission is leaking
  • Drivability – brakes work well, power steering a little loose and there is a vibration in the steering
  • Has factory air – but is not working
  • Chrome trim has a lot of nicks and dents around fender wells
  • Paint is worn including some dents, nicks and scratches (appears to have had a repaint in its past). Signs of some surface rust at the bottom rocker panel behind front wheels – but the metal looks solid
  • Glass in good shape except for some delamination on the driver’s passenger side edge
  • All the rubber trim/weather seals around the doors/windows/trunk/hood/convertible top has deteriorated
  • Dash appears a little sun dried but no cracks
  • Door panels appear a little sun dried
  • Back windows need a little help when rolling them up
  • Heater blower fan a little noisy
  • Front right low beam headlight out
