1962 Chevy Impala

Jim Covert of Web City, Mo.

MADE THIS

FROM THIS

Now you will see what it took Jim inorder to transform a tired old family beater into the show car winners circle.

Who says there ain't life after death. Here Jim shows what man can do if his heart is in it. Jims got a big heart cause this job wasn't easy.

Yes time can take its toll on Chevys even though on a quite night you can hear a Ford rusting.. Most cars are worse when you get down to the bare metal. Jim leaves no stone unturned, every inch is gone over with a keen eye to insure a solid body.

I can see some boxes in there, looks like Jim is going to have to ask his gal for an advance. It takes time and more time to return this machine back to show room condition. Oh, money too. (lots of it)

Lets start assembly. Careful now we don't want any dents.

A 355 cid, lots of goodies and this 62 now is a 4ED EATER. Ok Jim, you proved your point, a MOUSE can be dangerous when fed the right stuff.

Here is a good view of what Jim and his honey must be carefull not to mess up. Jim, NO NO Drive-in Movies, Ok? Ya did a super job on this great 62 Chevy Impala, if cars could only talk this baby would never shut up. Thanks Jim for bringing a true Classic back to life.
