The good old 409 with its original engine, transmission and 4.56 rear end is ready to find a new home. $42,000 takes this car home.

Verne, thank you for all of your positive comments on the car over the course of its advertising.

My pleasure. It's a lot more satisfying to point out a real one than a fake one.

Thanks to the Guys in Austin for the help, you can't go wrong buying a car from them and to our very own resident 409 afficionado, Vern for all the help. Tom and I got the exterior detailed and took the '09 for a nice ride in the country.

Absolutely love it heater delete too!!!!!
guy on my street had a 63 409 convertible
Dual quad it was blue and that car was fast !!!!!!
( I was about 11 and already a gear head I'd fetch him
Green bottle cokes while he worked on it
And I'd get rides while he power shifted
He beat a lot of newer muscle cars ......helped put the
Rebuilt engine back in ......still love 409s ...

----Its funny, the only 409 car in my neighborhood back in the era was a maroon/black gut 340 horse 4spd convert. It ran pretty good but he regularly got stomped by his buddies 63 Biscayne with a transplanted 327/365 Vette motor. I was 17 or so at the time......Bill S

That's what will always be cool about 409's. EVERYBODY has a great 409 story from back in the day.

Ya, Baby.......it needed those white walls.

It looks like the correct master cylinder is back on it, too.

Re: 63 Impala SS 409-425 Horse
 
----Close enough! That maroon 63 was based around Chippewa Lake as was the Biscayne. Rumor had it that the 365 motor was a bit warm as well as the trans, if you know what I mean.

----I knew that black car would look right with the whites on it. Does it ever!!!......Bill S

Wow! Looks terrific!!! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/laugh.gif[/img]

Stefano 08-20-2014 08:27 PM

Re: 63 Impala SS 409-425 Horse
 
Correct B.F. Goodrich Silvertown's , Correct master, Correct 4 core radiator. Nice exterior detail and buff.

All fluids fresh.

Lot's of the repro parts already swapped out with NOS or originals. Still more to follow.

So Stefano are you the new owner? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

Re: 63 Impala SS 409-425 Horse
 
You know, a white painted top would sure set off those Silvertown whitewalls.....just sayin';)

Stefano 08-21-2014 02:06 PM

Re: 63 Impala SS 409-425 Horse
 
Yes, it's now in NicKey inventory and we'll let the next owner decide on the color of the top. It's a quick fix, but I like it this way best as far as color.

olredalert 08-21-2014 02:42 PM

Re: 63 Impala SS 409-425 Horse
 
----I can see the fingers of one of the foremost 409 guys around have touched this 63 already, and that's a good thing. Nobody knows more!......Bill S

TimG 08-21-2014 03:36 PM

Re: 63 Impala SS 409-425 Horse
 
I offered to drive it to St. Charles, but Tom wanted to pick it up. That would have been an expensive drive with 4.56 gears.
