Vehicle Description
Worldwide Vintage Autos is pleased to present this 1962 Chevrolet
Impala.�
HISTORY
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-sizehardtop coupes. This style proved popular. The
"overhang" roof style of the sedans was replaced with a wider "C"
pillar with wraparound rear window. Engine choices for 1962
included the 348-cubic-inch (5.7�L) V8 discontinued and replaced by
the 380 brake horsepower (280�kW) 409-cubic-inch (6.7�L) or 409�bhp
409 cubic inch engine. These engines could only be ordered with a
manual shift transmission. The small-block 283 was offered with a
two barrel carburetor. The 283 was also enlarged to 327 cubic
inches (5.4�L), offered in two versions, one with 250 brake horse
power and one with 300 brake horse power, which added more engine
choices for small-block fans.�The Beach Boys�produced a hit single,
"409," referring to the Chevrolet, which became an iconic song for
these cars. Impalas again featured premium interior appointments,
plusher seats could be done by the dealerships on customer request.
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. The Impala
also gained the top trim station wagon body design, in place of the
Chevrolet Nomad model. 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. SOURCE: �WIKIPEDIA
