1960 Chevrolet Impala Chop-Top Custom
I am selling my 1960 Chevrolet Impala Chop-Top Custom street car! We @ P&H Motors purchased the car after it had suffered fire damage under the hood. The the best we could work out ; it seems whoever originally ran the wires, crossed the throttle linkage which caused the wires to spark fuel from the carburetor and burn the carburetor and distributor. Because of this previous damage the Impala is being sold with a PA salvage Certificate. We at P&H ran new wires to the motor, put a new Holley carburetor on, new starter, new spark plug wires and a new distributor. The Impala now starts/runs/drives and just needs to be finished back to 100% !! It is currently wired to run but will need a new harness under the dash to run accessories and gauges. All of the harnesses could be purchased from painless wiring company. It will need a new windshield installed however it is a factory piece of Impala glass just lowered into the cowl of the car and than tilted back to line up with the chopped top. We have also primered the painted areas damaged by the fire on the hood and fire wall.The Impala has a 327 small block w/ a turbo 350 Automatic transmission.While driving it around the block, it seems the Turbo 350 also has a shift kit installed! Everywhere I drove this car i was stopped by people to take pictures or talk about it! Just a cool looking, fun car to have and drive.The car has received a frame off restoration at one point in time, where every single component was either painted, powder coated or replaced with stainless hardware. The interior is also completely custom with nicely upholstered newer styled bucket seats, center console with power window/trunk switches and door poppers, factory style gauge cluster/dash and custom upholstered trim paneling and trunk compartment! We could not get the door poppers to function on demand but will pop the doors every once in a while. It's currently rigged to a wire to release the door latch. This car has received a ton of custom touches already and just needs a little bit of TLC to make it back to the showstopper ones with us!
The car is located in Hatboro, PA 19040 if anyone is interested in seeing/driving the vehicle before making an offer. My name is Spencer I can be contacted @215-802-5765with any questions about the Impala or to set up a time to see it. All of the information provided is to the best of my knowledge since I am not the one who originally built the car.
Thank You For Looking, Good Luck Bidding and
GOD BLESS
