Vehicle Description
A sleek all-black look, proper small block power,
four-on-the-floor, and a classic hardtop style make this 1963
Chevrolet Impala SS tribute a kind of total package that really
draws you in.
There's an instant attraction to this coupe because it was restored
with care. The full project was complete about a dozen years ago,
but the level of quality that was delivered is the kind that
endures. That's why the black paint has a nice gloss, and when the
sunshine hits it, the radiance loves to highlight the straightness
of the sheetmetal. There's nice brightwork on the wraparound chrome
bumpers, and full-width grille with individual headlight pods, and
the full trim package that even helps draw attention to the iconic
hardtop profile. This one still feels every bit 60s, and classic
Chevy fans will love that this not only has the SS badging, but
also the correct machine-turned trim. It does everything from frame
the Impala's iconic six taillight package, to draw attention to the
full-length side piece that's like an arrow pointing this car
forward. Even the wheels are a great unifying touch. The American
Racing Torq Thrust alloys are a period-correct way to upgrade the
sporty personality.
The exterior has a carefully crafted dark and glossy look, and the
interior follows suit with a rather fresh black setup. You can tell
there have been some solid investment in the carpeting, door
panels, seats, and headliner. This gets the Super Sport look right
with bucket seats and a center console. Plus, more of that sporty
machine-turned trim is on the console and lower dash. This has a
great vintage look with clear speedometer, a correct center-mounted
tach, and even the AM radio is still cranking out tunes. There are
even a few well-placed driver upgrades, like the grippy sports
steering wheel and Hurst shifter.
Under the hood is Chevy's famous 327 cubic-inch V8. Everything
looks quite nice in the engine bay with the bold block, matching
valve covers w/callouts, and fresh hoses. Once again, they even got
the vintage details right with items like the washer fluid refill
bottle mounted on the inner fender. The V8 gets to inhales deeper
with the Edelbrock 600 CFM four-barrel carburetor, and it makes a
sweet sound out of the dual exhaust. You're in complete control of
it all thanks to the four-speed manual transmission. This car has a
solid feeling on the road, like a properly restored machine should.
Plus, you have nice driving features like power steering and the
grip modern sport tires.
Complete with owner's manual, a sleek all-back machine is always
in-demand. So if you want this coupe in your garage, you need to
hurry up and call today!
