I was lucky to find a 1971 Impala convertible numbers matching 402 with factory air condition.
I think It is a rare car because I can not find parts...
I am looking for a gas tank perferably stainless steel or aluminum. I have the old tank and there is rust in the tank....ITS KILLING ME to not drive the car right now, but I am trying to be level headed and not ruin the motor.. I just replaced the carb also.
1. Can anyone tell me if other tanks from other years will fit this car?
I know some 1972 parts will work but not sure about the tanks....
ANY ONE know where to get?
2. ANY WAY to retore the tank on your own without costing $500.00 or more. I have seen a company "RENU" here in CHicago that will do it for $500.00 or more. I would like to streach my money and do it myself....Has anyone tried a gas tank restoring method or product worth trying????
3. Any way to know more about this specific car and how many were made or how many are around..???
I love the car, she needs some work, trying to get her out on the street before theres snow on the ground. I drove her one time with a gas tank IV to the carb.
Thank You I will try to answer somebody elses question IF i know the answer..
