Vehicle Description
A rust-free as-original example of Chevrolet's early '60s
pop-culture phenomenon, this 1962 Impala 409 4-speed Convertible
received a frame-off nut-and-bolt restoration that was completed
approximately 10 years ago. The resulting authenticity and
attention to detail earned the car a prestigious National First
Place Award in judging by the Antique Automobile Club of America
(AACA). In later competition it also received its National Senior
First Place Award. In judging by the Vintage Chevrolet Club of
America (VCCA), the car scored 997 out of 1,000 points in one of
the most rigorous judging regimes of any marque club. Correctly
finished in code 917 Twilight Turquoise paint, it gives off a
distinct sleeper vibe thanks to its contrasting Black power soft
top and Blackwall tires on deep-dish painted steel wheels with dog
dish hub caps. In contrast, the Black interior is typical Impala
elegance, defined by button-tufted interior paneling and
upholstery, a split-bench front seat, clean dash layout with all
working gauges and accessories. The rebuilt 409 CI Turbo-Fire
engine and 4-speed floor-shifted manual transmission are the
highlights of a pristine engine compartment and chassis that are as
clean as the rest of this impressive Impala Convertible. Driven
just 5,000 miles since its restoration, the car is truly evocative
of the early muscle car period. It is offered with a custom car
cover, Black convertible top boot and a set of four deluxe wheel
covers. Rust Free. Frame-off nut and bolt restoration about 10
