Vehicle Description
Have you checked the price on this 1968 Chevrolet Impala? Turns out
affordability also means plenty of originality as this large and
sleek coupe comes in the correct colors (with subtle upgrades) and
even its original V8.
The first impression a classic makes is everything, and that's why
this coupe is so appealing. Grecian Green is a great '60s color,
and this factory-correct shade has been treated to at least one
respray over its lifetime to keep the nostalgia factor high. Plus,
nothing says period-correct premium like a black vinyl roof. It's a
fantastic way to show off the sporty roofline of this hardtop. And
the black trim line not only matches the roof, but also it
highlights how straight this sheetmetal is even as this coupe
approaches the half-century mark. Of course, it can't be a true
classic American without some great brightwork. Up front, the
designers were definitely in charge, because we love how the
wraparound bumper also bisects the grille. And in the rear, the
bumper masterfully fits into the design while also integrating the
Impala's hallmark triple taillights. And completing this cool
cruising package are a set of iconic Rally wheels.
We always like it when the vinyl roof is also a preview of the
interior color. It just seems to give a classic an added touch of
premium. Plus, during this car's lifetime, the factory-correct
black seats were upgraded to a more comfortable cloth. That makes
this full-size coupe even more appealing for bringing along family
and friends. This is a terrific period-correct cruiser with all of
its trim intact and plenty of original features - even the factory
AM radio is still on display! This one has the right kind of charm
that plenty of others take notice, too (did you see the awards in
the trunk yet?) So you'll love slipping behind the factory
three-spoke steering wheel, gazing at the ultra wide speedometer,
and just letting the miles eat away.
Under the hood is one of the most honest engine bays you'll ever
see. Plenty of people are going to peek inside to marvel at its
condition, because after all, true originality is hot right now.
And while it's appearance means no one will ever have to ask you if
it's the factory motor, you have the assurance of knowing it really
is numbers-matching. And as you look closer, the condition of the
belts let you know that originality doesn't mean neglecting
maintenance. This 327 cubic-inch V8 inhales deeply through a
Rochester four-barrel carburetor, and exhales freely out of a
stainless dual exhaust system. And the original TH400 three-speed
automatic combines with power steering and the Impala's legendary
cushy ride to deliver a great cruising experience.
This is the big and sleek coupe with great originality and plenty
of personality. So when its priced so right, you know this coupe
won't stay with us long. Call today!!!
