Hi from Australia

Hi my name's Rob. I purchased a 1960 Impala SS Coupe from a guy in San Francisco a few years back and had it shipped "down under" We had some locally assembled Impalas here in the 60's but no 2 doors. Its a very unique car down here, get's lots of attention. I have only seen 2 others in my home state of Victoria.

I am a 31 year veteran of the Metropolitan Fire Brigade here in Melbourne and I am also the coordinator of the Firefighters Classic Car Day in Melbourne. we are currently in the process of forming a Classic Car Club for Fire-fighters.

I will be seeking advice on parts from you other members as they do not exist in Australia.

In particular I am looking to replace the missing trim at the top of the rear window. It never came with it!

Cheers
