Vehicle Description
When it comes to comfort, power, and presence, there isn't a whole
lot of classics that can beat Chevrolet's legendary Impala. With
their long, low, and wide bodylines, it isn't a surprise why the
Impala was such a hit in its day. And, looking at this stunning
example of a 1962 Chevrolet Impala, it's easy to see why. With
big-block power and updated internals, this '62 Impala is the real
deal. Powered by a 454 C.I. V8 breathing through a 4-barrel
carburetor, this Chevy's engine puts 410 muscular horses right into
the pavement. The engine was rebuild by Charles Speed Shop in
Omaha, Nebraska in just the past couple years, ensuring that this
Impala is running in top shape. The engine bay is also in
show-quality shape, completely chromed-out and featuring a
serpentine belt system! Torque is sent to the rear axle through a
4-speed manual transmission, which is good for both quick shifting
and plenty of smiles behind the wheel. The exterior features of
this Impala are clean and laser-straight, with a classic bright red
paintjob that reflects like a mirror in the sun after being buffed
to a brilliant shine. The chrome brightwork is in excellent shape,
with trim arrows that extend past the front quarterpanels that make
it seem as if this Impala were constantly in motion. The
undercarriage of this beautiful Impala is rock-solid and in
fantastic shape, as are the floors, frame, trunk and jambs. Opening
the twin doors reveals a stunning red vinyl interior, complete with
an overhauled digital dashboard and comfy bucket seats. Options on
this sweet '62 Impala include power steering, power 4-wheel disc
brakes, cold Vintage Air A/C, polished headers, an aluminum
radiator, a CD player, an AM/FM radio, a tilt woodgrain steering
wheel, a digital dashboard, upgraded rear speakers, dual chrome
mirrors, and a mean-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides on
a sleek set of 17" 5-spoke chrome wheels over blackwall tires for a
look that blends the best of both vintage and modern style! Throw
this Impala in gear and it glides down the road effortlessly,
ensuring that the driver's always in for a good time behind the
wheel. If you're looking for a wonderfully-driving classic that
makes a load of power while also making a statement in vintage
style at the very same time, then this may just be what you're
looking for.
