Okay ya based on the paint code "K" that is Brians old car. Ya its a  Surf Green 1962 Impala HT 283 3 speed on the column. NO PS or PB NON SS. Originally from Winnipeg then ended up in Sask then back to Winnipeg. Nice car. I have the original #s matching 283 from that car.

It was originally Surf Green not the Laurel Green it has been painted. Yes it was a very nice original and barely running car. The pass rear quarter behind the door was heavily damaged from the trim down by mouse pee and was like swiss cheese-even on the inner structure where the quarter window is located, so there is some heavy repair in that area. Both quarters have been replaced by "GLUED" on replacements and very poorly I might add. The bodywork is very nice of course as the bodyman doing is is extremely meticulous. It has a 65 pass 409 with 690 heads and some kind of aluminum 4 speed that may or may not be good. Yes the floors and trunk are near mint. Nice car for around $10,000 not $20,000.

1847 is a V8 Impala 2 door hardtop. The GM Docs would tell the story on that car.

Yup,  i would agree with all that Mr.409 has said.  I saw the car throughout most of the "resto".    10,000 is about right

Here are the pics from Kijiji saskatchewan 3 years ago. How about that?
