Steadfast, distinguished and great to look at, this solid hunk of Detroit steel carries the trademark combination of handsome looks and rugged versatility that's built Chevrolet into one of the largest and most respected brands in the world. And when you add those attributes to a professionally rebuilt 348 big block, tri-power carburation, and an exquisite restoration, you get one incredible cruiser! If you're in the market for a tailored classic that wraps limitless appeal in exoteric style, welcome to the large and diverse family called Impala!
AN EVEN BETTER BEL AIR
Rebuilt, resilient and ready to roll, this top-of-the-line coupe displays immaculate bodywork that simply glistens under correct Rio Red and Arctic White two-tone paint. The car's ground-up, nut-and-bolt, rotisserie restoration began with a full strip of a solid body. And, in typical '50s fashion, that profile was eventually decked in literal feet of polished trim.
348 Tri-Power
Lift this classic's massive hood and you'll find 348 cubic inches of 1958 big block topped with a trio of Rochester carbs. Torque meets the pavement through a 3-speed transmission, which spins a factory rear end that's finished with 3.36 gears. The car's fresh floors shade a fully rebuilt suspension. Exhaust flows from cast iron manifolds to stainless steel pipes and stainless steel mufflers. And all that fully sorted hardware rides painted steel wheels, which spin 8.00R14 BFGoodrich Silvertown whitewalls around stylish spinner hub caps.
THE PLACE TO BE
Decked in brilliant detail, this Chevy's correct Gray, Black and Red interior has been restored to factory-fresh condition in virtually every way. Cloth and vinyl seats feel newer than the car's 66 years would suggest. In front of those thrones, a sculpted dash is dressed in the usual combination of telemetry and trim. And the driver spins an elegant Impala steering wheel.
This fully restored first-year Impala is a first class full-size that's as vibrant as it is timeless. Simply put, there just isn't much 1950s metal that's nicer or cooler than this line-topping Chevy. And when you add the car's choice aesthetics and improved drivetrain, you're looking at what might be the ultimate American cruiser!
