So I usually make all my Chevy related posts on my secret fandom journal, but now a Chevy is in the offing, I should tell all.
As you know, I purchased the numberplate KAZ2Y5 a while back, and have been looking for a 1967 Chevrolet Impala with pillarless windows, just like in Supernatural. My darling stepfather even made a six hour round trip to view one that needed far too much work doing to consider purchase.
So I found one that is in Masterton, registered, warranted, and in very good nick for a 42 year old vehicle. The price is not too hideous, just three times the price I paid for my RAV. The sellers have been very understanding in answering my questions and taking close up photos of flaws (so far just a missing wheel trim, missing tail light trim and a small rip in the upholstery in one back door and the back of the driver's seat).
Then in today's email they revealed that the Impala in question starred was a prop in the film 'Blow' (which I haven't seen but definitely intend to now), and Johnny Depp was in the backseat for a scene! This is just infinitely awesome.
It also came from Arizona, a nice dry state, so is rust free.
Oh yes, she will be mine! |
