Vehicle Description
The 1966 Chevrolet Impala Convertible is an iconic piece of
American automotive history, and this particular example is nothing
short of a collector's dream. Dressed in its factory-correct Marina
Blue finish (Code F), this classic Chevy has been refinished in a
base coat clear coat, ensuring a deep, lustrous shine that turns
heads wherever it goes. The body is remarkably straight, with
exceptional panel fitment that speaks to the care and attention it
has received over the years. Every detail has been considered,
making this Impala a prime example of timeless mid-'60s Chevrolet
styling.
Under the hood, a 327 V8 engine provides the heartbeat of this
beauty. While not the original motor, it runs strong and delivers
the smooth, reliable performance that makes these Impalas such a
pleasure to drive. Paired with an automatic Turbo 350 transmission,
this classic Chevy glides effortlessly down the road, providing
both ease of operation and plenty of power when called upon. The
driving experience is further enhanced by power steering and power
brakes, making it a comfortable and confidence-inspiring ride.
Adding to its appeal is a rare combination of factory options that
elevate this Impala to a whole new level. A power convertible top
in white, complemented by a black boot, allows for effortless
open-air cruising at the push of a button. Inside, the cabin is a
time capsule of '60s luxury, featuring an exceptionally rare power
bench seat with the even rarer headrest option-something you simply
don't see on many Impalas from this era. The in-dash tachometer,
tilt steering wheel, and factory GM-optioned cruise control are
further indications that this was a well-equipped car when it left
the factory. These features were not commonly found together,
making this particular example an incredibly desirable and unique
piece of Chevrolet history.
The exterior boasts a host of brand-new components that enhance its
already stunning presence. Freshly installed body-side trim, a
gleaming new rear chrome bumper, new emblems, new fender well
moldings, and new rocker moldings all contribute to its
showroom-worthy appearance. The finishing touches, including new
rear taillights, chrome wiper arms with new wipers, and new hood
insulation, showcase the level of detail that has gone into
preserving and restoring this classic. The remote driver's side
mirror, paired with a manual passenger-side mirror, adds both
functionality and vintage charm.
Riding on period-correct radial white-wall tires, this Impala
maintains its classic aesthetic while providing a smooth,
comfortable ride. Inside the cabin, rare GM NOS rubber floor mats
and an authentic GM tissue box bring an extra touch of originality,
adding to the car's overall appeal. While the engine could be
detailed or repainted for further enhancement, it runs and drives
exceptionally well, making this a turn-key classic that's ready to
be enjoyed.
Whether you're looking for a show-worthy cruiser, a weekend driver,
or a prized addition to your collection, this 1966 Chevrolet Impala
Convertible is an outstanding example of style, performance, and
rare factory options. With its combination of beauty, rarity, and
drivability, this Impala stands as a testament to an era when
American cars were built with both elegance and power. This is not
just a car-it's a statement, a piece of history, and an opportunity
to own one of Chevrolet's finest creations.
