is there a 3 step plan for this ism? LOL, had a 66 caprice ,283 3 speed for my first car in 78, drove it for 4 months to my first job, bought a late model gmc pick up and sold the car, fast forward to now and had a itch for the past few years to have a big block car (have a all original 79 z28 still) and found a 65 impala ss v8 car that has been stripped and suffered from the remorse of 2 diferent owners that lost interest in rebuilding it. i do not have all the details for the car but it was born a Oshawa plant car with a 2 speed and V8 maron with gold brown interior( cant remember the name of the colours right now). It ended up being shipped to BC where it spent most of its life until it found its way back to eastern Ontario where it will start to come back to life! I plan on finding a 2 speed to put back in it and want to build a 409 / 425hp , colour change is in the works but have not decided yet. any help in procuring 409 parts for this build would be apriciated as well as opinions on where to buy quality rear quarters as well as front lower rear patch panels would be a great start ! thanks in advance for any help you may be able to give .

Welcome to the site, I love the 65's and a 409 would be icing on the cake. Good luck and you will get a lot of help from these guys, just ask em these guys are sharp.......

.....we recently finished a 63 conversion to a 409-425 4 speed
.....AND he ships via the Post Office which as I'm
but I think I can honestly say you won't be taken advantage of.
