Just purchased this 1969 Impala sport sedan last weekend while looking for a '70 Catalina that sold before I got to see it . Spotted this '69 in the same area and has the base 327 2 barrel,turbo 350 auto,P/S, manual brakes. Glacier blue, with blue vinyl interior, runs and drives sweet! Has rust in the lower rear quarters (spent a long time on a muddy farm). Originally a rental car when new for Budget Rent -A-Car and bought new at Westlake Chevrolet in downtown Seattle WA 8-23-69.

15" wheels but drum brakes. Usually in 1969 the Big Chevies with drums had 14" wheels. Dad had a new 1970 Biscayne with drum brakes that came with the upgraded for 1970 15" wheels.
My cousin's husband owned a 1969 Impala Sport Sedan like yours. His was Burnished Brown wth a tan vinyl roof & interior. His was also a 327 TH350. In his words, it was his favorite car that he owned. It was traded in 1976 for a new 1976 Impala Sport Sedan.
I notice that you even got the original Protect-O-Plate. Nice documentation to have. It says "Budget Leasing" on it.
