For Sale: 1962 Chevrolet Impala in Lavergne, Tennessee

A 1962 Chevrolet Impala SS with a big 409 V8, four-on-the-floor, and a sharply done vintage style inside and out is exactly what classic hardtop cruiser dreams are made of.

The big motor already has you hooked, and we'll get to that in a moment. But it's also worth taking a look at all the details that make this such a unique classic. Ermine white is one of those great classic Chevy colors. This is the factory-correct color, but there was a later investment to keep this coupe looking sophisticated. This chic style is continued on the has the hallmark six tail light arrangement, wraparound chrome bumpers, and wide grille. It's a package that looks good without getting too fancy to make you nervous to drive it. So it's the kind of coupe that knows how to own the road. And we even like the touches of custom style this one has. The 1962 coupe's hallmark full-length spear that runs the full profile currently has a red decal over the machine-turned insert. It's a sporty touch for this real-deal Super Sport, and it goes nicely with the red wheels.

The black interior has a tasteful style, and since this is a later upgrade, it's quite inviting for family and friends. But this big block Impala makes sure the driver is the priority. This is a proper Super Sport with front bucket seats and a center console in-between. The thin-rimmed steering wheel and the bright aluminum dash are elements that define 1960s class. And even the sporty additions keep the right classic style with the horizon tach, under-dash auxiliary readouts, and a Hurst floor shifter.

Under the hood is the legendary 409 cubic-inch V8. It's an era-correct block with quite an authentic style. It's a desirable package with dual four-barrel carburetors, four-on-the-floor, and a limited-slip rear end. So you have a solid driver, and considering you have a four-speed and Positraction (all 3 things the Beach Boys sing about), this is quite an impressive 409 that's also ready to unlock plenty of extra power. And power steering, power brakes, and front discs are terrific for any cruiser.

Complete with the owner's manual, there is a serious appeal in a real-deal Impala SS with a legendary big block nestled within. So it's time to drive a legend, call today!
