One of One?

I picked this cool old 1963 409 last week. I have known the car for decades because it was owned by a local man who had purchased it in 1967 from the original owner. The car has had one repaint but is very original aside from the paint including the matching numbers dual quad engine.The car was in numerous magazines 30 to 40 years ago where it was touted as one of one.

I'm thinking that I was WOWed by this one at the Peotone swap meet decades ago and have film-to-print pix of it somewhere. That is cool :cool:

This may be the same car you seen at Peotone. I bought the car from the widow in St Joe Illinois. Jim bought the car in Anchorage Alaska when he was in the military.

Incredible, do you also own that gold ‘62 409hp sedan?

I remember Jim B’s ‘63 quite well and my dad still talks about it! Always a favorite and a great color combo! I also remember it having a really slick paint job in the early ‘80’s. Many cars have slick black paint jobs these days but 40 years ago not many Black cars looked as good as this one!

There were 51 63 Impala 4drs (hardtops and sedans) built with the 409/400 engine. It's unknown how many of those were 425 cars and exactly how many of the 51 were sedans.
