Vehicle Description
This 1961 Chevrolet Impala Bubble Top has been given all the right
time and attention. That way you retain the iconic design, but now
you also can enjoy a powerful dual-quad V8, slick modern paint,
four-wheel disc brakes, an overdrive transmission, and much
more.
This one is truly a stunner from every angle. Chevy knew how to
deeply sculpt the front end to make the headlights look they were
out in front, and the hood had a crisp line within its full power
bulge. In back, the bold dipping "V" of the trunk line was part of
a seamless creation from the full-length side trim. And this
element was so daring, that Chevy only offered it for one year. And
of course, when you want attention everywhere from the boulevard to
the car shows, nothing beats that bubble top profile. This one is
worth the extra scrutiny because they invested in everything from
the chrome to a modern shade of Sapphire Blue Metallic to make the
whole car radiate in the sunshine. And while you're looking at the
shine, don't forget to check out the 17-inch US Mags alloys -
they're a hint that there are plenty more upgrades under the
skin.
Inside, the triple-tone interior is a classic Impala element. Plus,
with it all finished in different shades of blue, this coordinates
with the exterior to give the whole hardtop the full appeal of an
ocean wave. This one has a terrific fresh feeling of investment,
and they got all the details correct, right down to the trim on the
door panels. But more than just a proper classic, this has also
been upgraded to be a true cruising machine. You see it in the
comfortable cloth inserts of the seats, and the retro-style radio
that's an AM/FM stereo with digital tuner. Plus, with the Grant
three-spoke sports steering wheel, tilt column, auxiliary gauge
trio, and B&M floor shifter, you can also tell they made this
more of a driver's machine.
When you park this one, you're going to love opening the hood. The
348 cubic-inch V8 has been dressed to impress with a tidy setup,
bright block, and plenty of shine on the alternator, upgraded
pulleys, and so much more. Plus, underneath the long air topper is
a dual set of Edelbrock four-barrel carburetors. And while we all
know dual-quad performance will make you a street king, this also
has been upgraded further with go-fast goodies like the an
Edelbrock aluminum intake and headers that feed the rumbling dual
exhaust. But this build was also much more thoughtful than just
offering pure power. That's why you have an aluminum radiator to
keep it all running cool, even in traffic. And the four-speed
automatic transmission has overdrive comfort so you can show this
one off near or far. Plus, with power steering, modern Hankook
performance tires, and slotted four-wheel disc brakes, this iconic
classic really has the best of everything.
Here's the legendary Chevy that has been given all the right
investments to make it an amazing all-around stunner. Even the
undercarriage photos show you how fresh everything is on this
build. Something this complete and desirable is a rare opportunity,
so call today!
