Are any companies reproducing the trunk weatherstrip channel for 1961's? I see them for the 62-64 years. Would the 62' be close?

Dad and I have been working on installing new floor braces and floor pans. Here are a few pictures of before and after. Will be finishing the driver side pan and welding in place over Christmas. :brow:weld:wax

$400?

I did not get one with my car. Only two front fenders and a hood. I need the inner fenders and radiator support to complete the doghouse.

Nice looking car!!!

Will a 62' impala radiator support interchange with a 61'?

So I have been trying to purchase/trade for this car for some time. My dad was finally able to work out a trade a couple of years ago to get it. I have finally decided to start the restoration process and will be installing floor pans and braces next weekend. It will be a slow process as I live...

He did get an alignment after the upgrade. Could be checked again to ensure the first alignment was correct though. What I noticed was how quick and sensitive the steering was after the steering box was installed. I didn't want to make the same mistake with the upgrade on my impala..

My father replaced the draglink style power steering cylinder on his 56' Belair with an aftermarket power steering box made by CPP. The car does not drive as well as it did before.. What has been your experience with those power steering box conversions for the impalas??

Thanks for allowing me to join the group. I am beginning a restoration of a 1961 Impala bubble top. This will be my first impala restoration. I finished a 1968 Chevelle a few years ago and am anxious to get started again!
