Things of Love

[Hotz]

A man in Brazil in 1964, bought an Impala to impress his girlfriend ...
But she swapped him for another man, very sad he sealed the car in a garage.

currently he died, they opened the garage and look what was found.

New car ... Without use....

ps: Not sure of the story, but this is the car ...

According to information throughout the car is only original was full of dust after cleaning photos ...

Fire Extinguisher

That was my first guess but it looked weird so I wasn't sure. Thanks.

Regardless of the story - The exterior and interior are amazingly well preserved.

 

[Cemoto]

Wow!

nice find....

 

[akdiesel]

Love those things. Very nice.

not sure about this, the interior and exterior look great, but engine compartment ruins it, looks like a hoax to me.

 

[Goobzilla]

Straight 6??? Guess she picked the right guy

Hubcaps are wrong also.

Agreed.

 

[Zeke]

Hubcaps are wrong also.

They are correct for Brazil.

Now, that's a barn find.

Not even dusty?
No mice damage?

I've seen a factory '60 Impala with the 235 stovebolt six here in south Florida. If you just wanted the flash without the sizzle, you could get it.

The threads in the upholstery aren't rotten and falling apart? Maybe it was in a climate controlled builing all these years.

"New" cars down there must age quite a bit slower than the slightly used ones do up here. Beautiful car, but not sure I believe the story.

60s Impalas definitely are my favorite for comfort.

 

[bgarrett]

Its a 6 cylinder. No wonder she left him

 

[The Boss]

50 Year old lacquer paint doesn't look like that.

Great story however.

 

[Richard D]

Yep.

He was taken to a car wash polished, then took the photos ...
The engine did not work why the platform (Trailer)
