i had been looking for a 9c1 impala for a while now, but no one had a shell for cheap. everywhere i looked they wanted top $ for high as mileage and either a blown motor or tranny
i was driving back to my shop from the city and ran across a grey one with a for sale sign
i called the guy and after the strangest conversation ive had in my life i got a price and went the next day to see it.
after driving it for 5 minutes i kind of fell in love. runs great, full GMPP suspension, 12" rotors and, toyo tires on police rims, high output alternator and HD tranny upgrade
THE BAD PART
the car had a very ****ty earl shipe(sp?) paint job but that was the least of my worries.
blue interior ....with a brand new 03 tan rear seat .driver seat was trashed, and i can tell the passenger mirror was knocked off at some point. valve covers were pissing oil and subframe has a small crack in it from a speed bump. it has a few spots on it where you can tell it was orange at one point.
o and the day before i called someone had stolen the wiper blades
it was a cop car and then used as a taxi(still kind of smells like it too).....tho the mans wife gave me a bottle of frebreeze.....
i got a great deal on it and have already started thinking of ways to make this car a little more fun
it already has a race seat in it.....tho this was because i had few springs poking me in the ass the whole ride home the first day
tho i still have to scan it, i think it has 2.93s instead of 3.29s (very happy about that)
ill post some pics this weekend
