Vehicle Description
You probably were just attracted to this 1961 Chevrolet Bel Air
because you thought it looked cool and was priced right. Little did
you know that this two-door has a terrific color combo,
four-on-the-floor, and a triple-deuce setup on top of the classic
big block V8. Yep, it's that awesome.
You already know why the 1961 Impala is such a cool ride. There
were some nice touches that did not make it onto any other year,
and so they are sought after by collectors today. This kind of
lineage is why the factory-correct Fawn Beige has been given a more
modern investment in a nice clearcoat shine. Plus, you'll love all
the classic details, like the bright wraparound chrome bumpers,
color-matched steelie wheels with factory wheel covers and redline
tires, and the full-length sweeping trim. And it's sure to draw a
crowd with elements like the wraparound rear window with body
overhang. But the part we know you love the best is the dipping "V"
in the trunk. It's something so daring that this style is unique to
the '61.
Inside is a well-done interior that has classic style with
well-integrated upgrades. You get plenty of full-size comfort to
carry family and friends across two rows of wide benches. And you
have a retro-style AM/FM digital tuner w/cassette to keep everyone
happy on long road trips. But the best treats are reserved just for
the driver. You get the original stylized dual-spoke steering
wheel. It gives you a clear view of the artful factory gauges, as
well as the upgraded auxiliary readouts and large column-mounted
tach. Plus, with the bright floor shifter, you know there's
something special under the hood before you even twist the key and
hear it growl.
Filling the engine bay is some serious big block power. But it's
not just that you have a 348 cubic-inch V8, it's that we all know
the three bright air toppers are a sure signal of a triple set of
dual-barrel carburetors. And this iconic triple-deuce setup is
really done right to show off thanks to an ultra tidy engine bay
and the right classic details, like the Offenhauser valve covers.
Plus, you have the right modern supporting components for this
classic package, like the aluminum radiator. The dual exhaust makes
a great rumble, and when you really want to bring the thunder,
there's a set of bolt-off cutouts. Best of all, you have full
control over this V8 and its soundtrack with the T10 four-speed
manual transmission. It's a true street machine, but it's also easy
to enjoy thanks to features like power steering and power brakes
w/discs up front.
This triple-deuce Bel Air has a true vintage style, right down to
the details. Plus, it has the right modern upgrades for you to
really enjoy this one today. That makes for an irresistible total
package you need to get your hands on right now.
