1959 Chevrolet Impala biscayne

1959 Chevy Biscayne Coupe. There is a lot to say about this car and the work that was put in to bring it to where it is now. The car was worked on from top to bottom, changing, replacing, rebuilding, and making everything work for a daily driver not a weekend car. The first and foremost this beast was fitted with a fresh fully built (less then 3000k miles) healthy 383 Chevy motor with a mild cam, Edelbrock intake, new 4 barrel Polished Holley 600 carb, new fuel pump, new alternator, new HEI Distributor, plugs and new wires that makes close to 400 hp. To bring all that power to the rear wheels a freshly built Borg-Warner Super T-10 Heavy Duty manual transmission and a Hurst Comp Plus shifter with a new trans cross member was installed. Heavy Duty Griffin Radiator was added to keep this car cool even in the hottest weather and sitting in traffic on a 120 degree day makes it a breeze. Then new dual exhaust was then added and car sounds amazing. Then the suspension work began, instead of putting her on air bags, it was decided that a lowering kit would be more practical (as the air ride bags can leak air and can get you stranded in the middle of nowhere). So the whole front end was changed to tubular upper and lower control arms, all new upper and lower joins, all new bushings, new gas shocks on all 4 corners, 2" lowering springs in the back and a 2" dropped spindles with drilled rotors in the front. The car is super tight and eats sharp turns for breakfast. It's sitting on 18x8 in the front and 20x8.5 in the back with brand new tires (less than 300 miles). The brake system was gone through as well everything that needed to be replaced was replaced, and a new dual master cylinder with a manual proportioning valve was added. Some other things that were done as well were new gas tank, new clutch pressure plate, new throw out baring, drive shaft rebuilt, and new pinion seal. Now for the Exterior of the car, it's all 100% "Organic Patina" It was lightly sanded down and satin cleared over to preserve the patina look. None of the trim is missing it's all there and in great shape. The floors were replaces and the replacement pans were wended into place and are solid. The frame is super solid, the trunk has few holes. The interior in the car is all fresh and features brand new door panels ( both front and back ), newer carpet, new upholstered white rolled and pleated front and rear seats, newly satin panted dash and surrounding interior trim, new white back tray, and new carpeted kick panels. The car does have front power windows feature, although the drives window is the only one powered at the moment, the passenger side track just needs to be installed and is included. The passenger side door is already pre-wired and just needs to be connected into the pre-wired socket once installed. Other then that all windows open and close with a window crank. The car was fully re-wired from front to back and currently uses the 12v system. It does have all new Autometer gauges and an electronic speedometer gauge that is fully functional. It also has a new SunPro Super Tack RPM gauge that is also working. All the gauges light up when you turn on the headlights. It was also fitted with an after market turn signal switch and a LED turn signal light indicators on dash. It has working high / low beams as well. Lots of money was spent on making the car what it is today, She is a great Patina, Hot Rod, RestoMod, Sleeper or what ever you would like to call her. She is fast, got the right curves, fun to play with, and turn key ready. The "BUY IT NOW" price is what I'm asking. The opening bid is my bottom dollar. You can spend weeks watching auctions never hit reserve, wondering. You know where I stand. https://youtu.be/edztok1fS80
