greetings from down-under

hello hello

i just scored a very rusty 66' hardtop impala here in australia, so am very happy with myself and thought i'd join you yanks in a bit of a yarn or two :P

im a mechanic by trade so fixing her up will be a labour of love, but i am sure it'll be worth it in the end.

pics to come later as my camera is playing funny-buggers

nice car, looks pretty straight.

I have a special liking for 4 dr hardtops, for whatever reason they don't make them any more...

... nor do they make front side window vents or back seat side windows that go all the way down...

look forward to seeing more pics!

Hello and welcome to the community. I did not see much in the way of body rust, should be fairly easy car to restore.
