For Sale: 1962 Chevrolet Impala in Lavergne, Tennessee

The 1962 Chevrolet Impala SS tribute defined what a cool cruiser should be. So when you find one that has been expertly restored for awesome paint, a Super Sport appearance, an overdrive transmission, and much more, then this is a terrific turn-key total package.

Take a moment to really appreciate the work on this tribute. The Impala was restyled this year to give it a more sophisticated roofline, and this one showcases it with the hardtop finished in a pristine white. In fact, there's a nice pearl element that radiates in the sunlight. Add in an awesome blue lower section, and you have a show-ready two-tone. The body lines, gaps, weather stripping, and all the fundamentals show that this is a carefully crafted coupe. And while the paint and body had solid investment, you can also tell they really took time to get the trim and brightwork right. This was upgraded to a Super Sport, and it correctly has the machine-turned aluminum trim zooming up the side and surrounding the Impala's hallmark six taillight arrangement.

When you open the door, the blue and white package continues. The seats are crisp and nicely finished with the look of a solid investment. Plus, the button-top presentation here correctly coordinates with the door panels. A nice white headliner, correct blue carpeting, a smooth blue dash completes a very vintage and uniform total package. You'll love all the classic details - from the artful Impala steering wheel to the AM radio that's still cranking out the tunes. In fact, the only upgrade you'll likely spot is the air condition that runs on modern R134a refrigerant (likely just needs a recharge to blow cold.) So this is a great one to roll down all the windows on the pillarless hardtop and take for a drive. That's why they also upgraded this Impala to be a great cruiser, too.

Under the hood is a 327 cubic-inch V8. While it has a stock style, right down to the decals, this is actually an upgrade later in life. They also made sure to build it with the right pieces to be a strong driver. That includes an MSD ignition, 12-volt alternator, and Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor w/electric choke. The V8 fires up nicely, and it makes a subtly sweet tune out of the glasspack-style dual exhaust. Investments on the suspension make this a confident driver, and there's even power brakes, front discs, and an upgraded four speed automatic transmission with highway-friendly overdrive.

This is the sharp-looking icon that has been upgraded to enjoy near or far. So if you want to drive a legend, don't miss this deal. Call today!!!
