Vehicle Description
This 1970 Chevrolet Impala is a great classic coupe with a touch of
old-school cruiser style. After all, the two-tone hardtop style
looks like a true boulevard cruiser. But the enhanced small block
and four-on-the-floor make for added blacktop fun.
Desert Sand is a great 1970s color. It does a good job of giving a
nice glow and keeping the nostalgia factor high. Plus, nothing says
period-correct premium like the pillarless hardtop roof in classic
white. The trim tag tells us this attractive two-tone is
factory-correct, and the overall fit and finish is that of a
driver-quality car. That means you will never be too nervous about
hopping in on a whim and going for a drive. So it feels like an
easy cruiser. It's a true classic American, and that means
well-placed brightwork. You see it everywhere from the full-length
trim to the chrome bumpers that hug the form (especially the rear
with triple tail lights artfully embedded.) And while those
polished 18-inch wheels upgrade the modern tires you can utilize,
they even made sure this coupe still kept a vintage style with true
American Racing Torq Thrust alloys.
The tan interior shows off plenty of earth-tones that represent the
era correctly. Two wide rows of bench seats give you the kind of
room to spread out that reminds you why drive-ins were popular, and
the overall presentation has the right mixture of preservation and
restoration. The plush carpeting, smooth dash, and taut headliner
have a period-correct look while feeling like new. And you'll
appreciate vintage details everywhere from the button-top door
panels to the Delco AM radio that's still there for display. The
only upgrades you'll likely spot are the ones that make this feel
like a great driver. It includes the Corvette-style steering wheel,
Sunpro tach mounted on the steering column, and a Hurst floor
shifter.
The engine bay has a nice look with smooth black inner fenders and
some added polish to the valve cover and air grabber. The 350
cubic-inch V8 is a hardy small block, and this features a Quadrajet
four-barrel carburetor, an upgraded intake, HEI distributor, and
headers feeding into the Flowmaster dual exhaust. You are in full
control of the enhanced small block power and its rumbling
soundtrack thanks to the four-speed manual transmission. This also
gives you good driving features like power steering, front disc
brakes, and the grip of modern tires.
The sale comes complete with the factory buildsheet, the original
warranty card, and the owner's manual. This is a cool coupe that
mixes an easy cruiser ride with V8 and four-speed fun. So if you're
looking for a unique classic Impala at an affordable price, don't
miss this deal. Call now!
