Hello lets start my name is Casey Lineberry i'm only 18 im pretty well versed in the automotive subject but i don't know everything and never will so i asked a lot of questions. i am currently working on a 1970 Chevy Impala shes a numbers matching 350 300hp backed by a th350 only 41,000 original miles shes real clean except for the bottom of the fenders and a pinhole in the 1/4 panel ive owned the car since i was 4 years old(not a typo) my parents payed 600$ for the car and it was to be my first car because i called it my dragon(keep in mind a 4 year old's imagination of scaled up forest green lacquer paint) i intend to give it the pro-touring treatment while keeping all the original parts stored so one day when im old i can restore her to her factory condition.63802638036380463805638066380763808

Looks like a solid car to start with.keep in mind you can make any car look good with the right stance and a little imagination. . Greg

That's a really good lookin Impala , Casey .
Welcome to the site .
I like your idea of keeping the original parts , that's a good idea ..
Make that thing a cruiser with a low stance and some modern equipment .

thanks id love to have a 69 cust. coupe with a 427 most call me stupid but 69 and 70 are my favs hands down i just cant believe how good these cars could sit through turns as big as they are my car may need a lot of work but i couldnt live with my self if i ever sold it even if i got tons of cash out of it it has more sentimental value than it could ever be worth

Welcome to the site and your car has plenty of potential. Jump over to Rad Rides site and look at the 66 Biscayne they built. Very cool

Ps I have two daughters so be careful one of us Dads might come after you one day.
