Vehicle Description
It's a bright red 409 4-speed. This 1961 Chevrolet Impala also
sports the desirable Bubble Top body style. 1961 was the first year
for the famous 409 engine, and it was a 409 4-speed that the Beach
Boys sang about in their classic hit song. This beautiful Impala is
indeed the stuff of legend. It was professionally restored to
show-quality standards inside and out -- even the trunk. The super
clean engine bay is a great showcase for the legendary big block.
And the engine shines with a chrome open element air cleaner and
silver "W" valve covers. The interior is a study in style and good
taste. The red and white upholstery blends with the red carpeting;
while beautiful bright work on the seats, dash and door sills
provide a pleasing contrast. A really neat detail is the steering
wheel. It has the thick, comfortable rim of a modern helm, but is
styled so well that it looks like it was born there. Another modern
touch is the cupholders in the center armrest. As you know, a '60's
car usually had ash trays rather than cupholders. The red and white
theme is taken as far as the trunk, with a neat spare tire cover
and the bow tie logo embroidered into the front panel. This is a
custom with great modern upgrades, including Wilwood power disc
brakes, that respects the classic style and heritage of the 1961
Bubble Top Impala.

custom vehicles. We have more than 200 vehicles in our collection

that all buyers who are unable to view a vehicle in person have a
pre-purchase inspection done prior to purchase. Inspections can be
performed by an independent party selected by the buyer. Due to the
age and uniqueness of these special vehicles, it is difficult to
cover all aspects and characteristics of each vehicle's condition
within the limited space available. Thus, pre-purchase inspections
are helpful to all parties involved. The information provided for
