1964 Chevrolet Biscayne 2-door sedan with a 409, MSD Atomic EFI and Vintage Air

Why we picked it

The VIN 41211L196054 decodes as a factory V8 1964 Biscayne 2-door sedan built in Van Nuys, the lightest and plainest full-size Chevy that year. It now has a 409 V8 (not original to the car) with MSD Atomic EFI and an aluminum intake, a floor-shifted automatic, Vintage Air A/C, power front disc brakes, rack-and-pinion steering, a tilt column, power windows and locks, LED lights and a rear camera. The seller bought it in 2016, and it has a clean Minnesota title.

The bid was $20,001 with four bids when we checked, and the auction ends October 12. Modified Biscayne 2-door sedans have sold for $29,700 to $53,900 this year, and the comfort and drivability work here is the expensive part of a build like this. Bids usually climb in the final day. The listing leaves condition details to the photo gallery.

The value check

When we found it, the bid was $20,260. Comparable cars in the same condition have sold for $29,700–$53,900, so the middle of the market is about $41,800. That put this car 52% under.

Modified 1962-63 Biscayne 2-door sedans sold for $29,700 (Barrett-Jackson, Jun 2026), $31,000 (BaT, Jul 2026) and $53,900 (Mecum, Sep 2026). The $20,001 bid is about 52% under the $41,800 midpoint with five days left, and bids usually climb.

Where the numbers come from:

• 1963 Biscayne 2-door, modified, Barrett-Jackson, $29,700 (Jun 2026)
• 1962 Biscayne 2-door, modified, BaT, $31,000 (Jul 2026)
• 1963 Biscayne 2-door, modified, Mecum, $53,900 (Sep 2026)

What to check

• The listing does not list flaws in text; go through the gallery closely and ask for underside photos
• Check the X-frame rear kick-ups, trunk floor, lower quarters and floor pans for rust
• Ask for receipts for the 409 build, the EFI install and the steering conversion
• Confirm the transmission and rear axle are built to handle the 409
• Mileage shown is 1,300; ask how many miles are on the build

Making it drive like new

Most of the modern hardware is already in. Next steps would be rear disc brakes, tubular front control arms with better geometry, a stiffer rear sway bar and fresh body mounts, plus three-point belts and better seats for a long-distance cruiser.

4 builders make a complete chassis for the 1958–64 Impala, Bel Air & Biscayne. Compare them side by side, along with what it takes to stiffen the factory frame.

How it ended

Bidding reached $25,100 but the car didn't sell (ended Oct 12, 2026). Unsold cars often get relisted, so it may turn up again.
