Sold the 64 Impala  409 4 speed to a broker for buyer in New Zealand!!  When he came to inspect the Chevy he saw my 64 Pontiac Parissienne Wagon & asked if it was for sale, "not really" put a price on it, so "hit it HARD" when truck came to pick up Impala some negioations happened and a BIG pile of cash on table !!  Put a dealer plate on wagon, loaded Impala on "tilt & load" and both GONE!!!  Got paid earlier for Impala by bank draft. Broker going to keep wagon for summer then it will likely be off to N Z too!!! So Empty shop [ for now] but something in the works??  more to follow

Pete - I loved both your cars. You know that. I've drooled over both in WV before. I am going to miss the wagon the most though. I was kinda wishing to get my hands on it. That stack of cash was very impressive though. It might be able to pay the beer or hydro bill for a little while! 

Can't wait to see what Pete comes up with next (although I might have an idea).

Wow !!! I will have to watch out for your 64 on the new zealand roads !!!

you guys are going to have to watch out ! Us kiwis are buying all the classics up !!! 

Did I mention there are five million petrol heads in nz !!! Hahaha 

I don't know where or who bought it in N Z as it was bought through a " broker"  [ or 3rd. party] here in Ontario, but on inspection he called NZ and said my 64 was "way better" than the last 63 Impala 327 4 speed he /she? had bought previously and " It's a 409" and a real one!!! So keep your eye out, have no idea when it's going on the boat, Red 2 dr coupe w/ black interior with Torque Thrust D's mags or they might put the stock wheels & spinner S/S wheel discs back on???

So what's next Pete? A Smokey and the Bandit TA for you and Sharon? Or a Safari so you can load up Ralph the Wonder Dog for doggie day road trips?

New car to be picked up sometime next week by private transport company "way up" in northern Ontario !! Weather permitting!!! Yes it's a "TIN INDIAN"  I'll kept you folks in suspense until it arrives in enclosed trailer!!!!!!! 

Dude! You're killing us!!!! 

You are evil that way! I guess that's one of the things I like about you, that and cold Molson's or Canadian.

Car picked up last night by my transport guy around 5:oo pm. in enclosed trailer. Should be here late this afternoon all going well!!!

We can't wait to see what your new ride is going to be Pete!!! Remember we love pics!!!!

Well it arrived here around 4 PM was loaded in a blizzard yesterday and was still covered in snow inside trailer. 74 Grandville Brougham convertible and "LOADED" 455 4bbl duals. 64,500 miles built in Fairfax Kansas & have contacted PHS to get the "scoop" on it! Not a noise from engine !!!  A/C doesn't work but everything there & even has the belt on it??? Only 
non stock" thing is the stereo!!

Pete - she looks good in your garage. That boat definitely fills up the garage.

Other than getting the AC working, you got any plans for it yet?

Congrats bud, I can’t wait to see it up close!

 

Great find.  Looks like it's in good shape.  No noise from engine??  So It doesn't run?  That would explain the A/C too. Justa kidding.  Found this and thought of U too.

Going to license office [ your DMV] & get it transferred into my name & plated today & pay the "sorid" 13% sales tax  on tax appraisal value + all the other fees they can rip me off for!!! Doesn't really need a lot other than A/C & I noticed a broken wire going to compressor ???  I'll play with it over next month or 2 till snow gone and salt washed off roads

The only other question I have Pete. Is it a one legger or two legger?

Got ownership [ Title] transferred into my name but cost me $ 1,360 in taxes, Ont. used car document, & fees !!!  Document shows only the seller as only owner in Ontario as he bought it in Montreal from classic car dealer after it was imported into Canuckistan from USA. So I didn't get a kiss, or a dinner, no "lube" just got "SCREWED" OH ya another $ 50 for tax appraisal to get it transferred, as anything over 35 years old is not in computer for value!!  Bend over "ROVER"
