Winter warrior - 1967 Chevrolet Impala 2 door htp - does anyone in south winnipeg know this car?


I have spotted this car quite often at the Canadian tire parking lot on Kenaston - it must be somebody's daily driver as it has appeared consistently on a daily basis  even during those -30 degree stretches - 

I have spotted it regularly when I get my 1.00 coffee at McDonalds and continue down the service roadIMG_2848[1].JPGIMG_2847[1].JPG

I don't know about it but I've seen it in that same spot too. He must be friends with Beaumontguru, both driving old cars all winter!

I saw a guy driving it in the fall,  yes at can tire every day.  Looked like a younger kid with a cowboy hat the day i saw it, but i could be wrong

Cudos to him for having the balls to daily drive a relatively nice example of a 67 impala custom coupe.   Welcome to the club my friend!

i just hope he is oil spraying it.

I didnt know Impalas came with that style quarter window. Thought only Caprice did and Impala was like Parisienne.

Isn't it a Caprice? I thought so too. I thought that roofline only started on Impala in 1968.

It's neat to see them out in the wintertime, but hard to see it coated with salt like that.  Oh well, you can't save them all.

As Beaumont Guru said, hopefully he has it oiled, to extend its life a little.

Looks like he has the grill blocked off to get some more heat.
My 67 frame rusted in the area of the foot wells. Put 4 inch channel iron down both sides and went on our honeymoon to the east coast.
.
Has the optional turn signals. No rear defogger????

.... on a closer look....

Back up lights in the bumper.

Block heater plugged in.

I can not help feeling sad that this person is just throwing this car away. A winter beater no way, a summer cruiser yes way. There is plenty of modern junk out there to use in the winter instead of this fine Chevy. Sad sad sad sad.confusehmmdisbeliefdisbeliefnodohevileyebleh

Likely no metal to put the screws into either...

It's cool to see it out there, even if it has had implants!
