This Cosmetically restored 1962 Chevrolet Impala is presented in Twilight Turquoise and Blue interior. It has a Turbo-Fire 327-cid/250-hp V-8 backed by a 2 speed Power-glide transmission with a 10-Bolt 3.36 rear end gear. It comes with custom 5 spoke brushed chrome rims mounted on Goodyear Eagle LS tires. The interior has redone to factory specs and color. The front floor mat has a center console with cup holders and tray. A breif history on the 1962 Impala is as follows: The 1962 model featured new 'C' pillar styling for all models except the 4-door hardtop. Sport Coupe models now featured the 'convertible roof' styling shared with other GM 'B' full-size hardtop coupes. This style proved extremely popular and contributed to the desirability of the '62–'64 Impalas as collectibles. The 'overhang' roof style of the sedans was replaced with a more attractive wider 'C' pillar with wraparound rear window. Engine choices for '62 settled down the 348-cubic-inch (5.7 L) V8 discontinued and replaced by the 340 brake horsepower (250 kW) 409-cubic-inch (6.7 L) which could be ordered with any transmission. The small-block 283 was enlarged to 327 cubic inches (5.4 L) which added more engine choices for small-block fans. The Beach Boys produced a hit single '409' referring to the Chevy which became an iconic song for these cars. Impalas again featured premium interior appointments plusher seats and more chrome trim outside including a full-width aluminum-and-chrome panel to house the triple-unit taillight assembly. Super Sport (SS) models featured that panel in a special engine-turned aluminum which was also used to fill the side moldings making the SS more distinctive in appearance. Impala also gains the top station wagon after the Chevrolet Nomad is gone. Due to reliability problems the optional Turboglide automatic transmission was discontinued leaving Powerglide the only automatic transmission available until 1965. A new radio was optional.
