"THE RESCUE OF OLD NUMBER 13"

Over 25 years ago, a car enthusiast from Walla Walla, Washington, a small farming community in South Eastern Washington State, decided to drive over to Kennewick, Washington to attend the weekly demolition derby. He was in the pit area looking at the cars lining up to go on to the field for the next event. Much to his total dismay, up pulls a wonderful old 1963 Chevrolet Impala 409 2-door hardtop. A quick inspection confirmed that this was indeed a numbers matching 409. Two young fellows were aboard the vehicle. A quick inspection of the car revealed that it didn’t appear to have ever been wrecked or rusted.  It was still adorned with the original paint, red with a white top. (see sub-page photos) The young fellows had removed all the glass and painted big number 13s on the sides but other than that the car looked great.  The enthusiast immediately stopped the young fellows and asked what they were doing and was told the car was on its way into the demolition derby. It never made it as the enthusiast bought the car before it could make it onto the track.

He took the 409 home and tore it down in his shop. Over the next 22 years, he managed to complete the frame and drive train, and was preparing to begin the body. Unfortunately, he died an unexpected death and we purchased the car from his widow in June of 2005.

We brought the car to the Boise, Idaho area to continue the total body off restoration of the car.  Every piece and part of the car was dismantled and carefully inspected and replaced or repaired if there was any wear revealed.  Closer inspection revealed no body damage ever and no rust.  The body was taken down to its individual panels and painted the original ember red on the bottom with the ermine white roof using high quality acrylic enamel paint.  The paintwork on this vehicle speaks for itself. It has taken two years to accomplish the reassembly process to the standards we have imposed upon ourselves. This automobile is absolutely stunning in it’s presentation.

All work on this car has been performed to exacting standards.  All trim, glass, interior, tires, brake lines, fuel lines, gas tank, seals, weather-stripping, door handles, moldings, wiring, exhaust system, inner fenders, grille, battery, rear deck panels and inserts, etc., are new and correct.  All running gear, engine, transmission, rear end, steering, brakes, radiator, etc., have been rebuilt to new specifications.  The bumpers, valve covers, and steering wheel center section have been re-chromed and much of the original trim has been buffed to perfection.  The original clock has been converted to a digital operation.  When we bought the car it was missing the original Rochester carburetor so, after a long search, we were able to find a correct, green (brand new, NOS) Rochester. Following initial completion of the car, we noticed that it “sagged” on the drivers side so all four coil springs were replaced.  Entering this classic is a step back in time to an era of fun, excitement, great music and late night street activity. This “409” represents it all!!!!  The interior and exterior originality and detail are “spot on”. 

No expense was spared on this restoration.  The car is razor straight and the doors fit and close better than when they were new.  This is a brand new automobile that has zero miles on it following restoration other than moving it from shop to shop and tuning.
