Hey, I just started restoring a 68 impala sedan and I'm having problems removing the backseat. Any suggestions, please?

I think you have a nice ride I have a 67 impala with a 327 in it. But I have a 454 that has already been bored 30 over. I am confused on which engine to go with my 327 needs to be rebuilt.

Always liked a 68, if your going to paint I would go with a powder blue, there's a guy down the street from me that has one in that color and I gotta stay it's pretty striking

Mike, sorry but I don't have any extra fenders. However, in a small town south of San Antonio called Seguin, Tx. There is a salvage yard called John's Salvage. They have numerous 68 chevys. I'm not sure if they have a web site or not but I'll check it out.

I like your car. I have a 68, too. Mine is still white with medium blue interior. It's just in the beginning stages. I have a 468, th350 with a 2800 stall, shift kit,edelbrock intake, edelbrock 800 carb, 3 inch exhaust (needs headers, got any suggestions?),ported heads, mild cam. I plan on painting mine House of Kolor midnight blue with almost black undercoat, a little metal flake and maybe ghost flames. Then I plan to add Cragar SS for the classic look.
