We recieved a wonder email today from our good friend Col along with a picture of his car. We love hearing from our customers.
Hello Celeste and all at Hubbards, got your email a couple of weeks ago but could not get back to you.
I will be putting in another order soon of mostly smaller items. The Impala is getting so close to being back on the road, it was started up for the first time since buying it 2 1/2 years ago, very exciting. Attached is a recent photo of the Impala, I have put an Australian RHD chassis under it with right hand dash and firewall off an Australian 65 Impala witch was done standard from 1965 to 1968 in Australia by GM. Headlining and upholstry done next week then finishing.
Thanks to all at Hubbards.

In the context of an Impala engine harness, "HEI" typically stands for High Energy Ignition. This refers to a type of ignition system that was commonly used on General Motors (GM) vehicles in the 1970s and 1980s, including some models of the Chevrolet Impala. The HEI system replaced the older points-style ignition systems and provided improved ignition performance and reliability. The HEI system used a built-in ignition coil, which eliminated the need for an external coil, and it also featured an electronic ignition control module that improved ignition timing accuracy.

Installing a gas tank on a 63 Impala requires the following steps:

Drain the old gas tank: Before you start removing the old gas tank, you must drain it of any remaining fuel. To do this, locate the fuel line and disconnect it. Then, using a fuel pump or siphon, remove all the gasoline from the tank.

Remove the old gas tank: The old gas tank is usually held in place by straps that need to be removed. You will also need to disconnect the filler neck and any other hoses and wires that are connected to the tank.

Clean the area: Once the old gas tank is removed, you should take the time to clean the area where the new tank will be installed. This will help ensure a secure fit for the new tank.

Install the new gas tank: Position the new gas tank in place and secure it with the straps. Reconnect the filler neck, hoses, and wires.

Refill the tank: Once the new gas tank is installed, fill it up with gasoline.

Test the system: Turn the engine on and check for any leaks or other issues. Make sure the fuel gauge is working properly and that the engine runs smoothly.

It's important to note that if you're not confident in your ability to complete this process safely and correctly, it's best to seek the help of a professional mechanic.

The grab bar in a 1963 Impala was developed to provide passengers with a safety feature to hold onto while the car is in motion. The Impala was designed as a full-size car with a powerful engine and was capable of high speeds, and it was important for passengers to have something to hold onto to avoid being thrown around in the event of sudden movements or impacts. The grab bar is typically located above the front passenger seat, and it allows the passenger to hold on securely, particularly during sharp turns or sudden stops. In addition to providing a safety feature, the grab bar also serves as a design element that adds to the overall aesthetic of the car's interior.

There could be a few reasons why your horn is not working on your 1963 Impala.

Blown Fuse: The horn on your Impala may be powered by a fuse. Check the fuse box to see if the horn fuse has blown.

Wiring: The wiring that connects the horn to the rest of the electrical system may be damaged, disconnected or corroded. Inspect the wiring for any damage or loose connections.

Horn Relay: The horn relay could also be the problem. It may be faulty or not working properly. You can test the relay with a multimeter to see if it is working properly.

Horn Button: The horn button on the steering wheel may also be the problem. It may be worn out, dirty or not making proper contact with the horn relay. You can try cleaning the contacts or replacing the horn button.

Horn: Finally, the horn itself may be faulty or damaged. You can test the horn by connecting it directly to a power source to see if it works. If it doesn't, you may need to replace the horn.

Scuff Shields are typically used as an accessory to protect the lower door sills of a car from scratches, scuffs, and other damage that can occur from passengers getting in and out of the vehicle. They are often made of a durable and flexible material that can withstand wear and tear, and they can be customized to fit the specific make and model of a car, including the Impala. By installing Scuff Shields on your Impala, you can help preserve its resale value and keep it looking new for longer.

Installing a 62 grill on an Impala can be a bit tricky, but here are some general steps you can follow:

Remove the old grill: First, you will need to remove the existing grill from your Impala. This may involve removing some screws or clips that hold the grill in place. Be sure to keep any parts you remove in a safe place.

Clean the mounting surface: Once the old grill is removed, clean the mounting surface where the new grill will be attached. Use a clean cloth to remove any dirt or debris.

Prepare the new grill: Before installing the new grill, make sure it is in good condition and that all mounting tabs and clips are intact. You may also need to paint or polish the grill to match your Impala's color.

Install the new grill: Carefully align the new grill with the mounting surface on your Impala. Use the mounting tabs and clips to secure the grill in place. Make sure the grill is firmly attached and does not rattle or move.

Test the new grill: Once the new grill is installed, test it to make sure it is functioning properly. Check that the grill is securely attached and that it does not obstruct any of your car's important features such as the headlights or air intake.

If you are not comfortable with performing the installation yourself, it may be best to take your Impala to a professional mechanic who has experience working with car grills.
