For Sale: 1971 Chevrolet Impala in Lithia Springs, Georgia

One of the most prolific sales nameplates in GM's history, the Chevy Impala spanned ten generations over almost seven decades. Splitting those iterations down the middle, we present this 1971 Chevrolet Impala Convertible. The first year of its fifth generation, this fully repainted Silver Steel Impala sports its original panels, while its huge twenty-two-inch Boze wheels not-so-subtly hint that this drop-top may have a few upgrades since it rolled off the assembly line.

Inside, a clean black vinyl interior offers up plenty of room for the whole family or friend group. Featuring a trick digital dashboard, this car sports a killer stereo system thanks to a Kenwood AM/FM/Aux head unit that sends sound waves through four truck-mounted Kicker subwoofers and two amps housed in a finished carpeted enclosure. Contrasting that modern tech are sliding HVAC controls and a throw-back column shifter to remind you of a simpler time in automotive history. Power steering and air conditioning allow you to pilot this Impala with ease, while the dual batteries keep everything powered up for as long as you your road trip happens to be.

Under the hood, we find a clean engine bay with plenty of polished chrome. Back up all that show with a little go is a 350 cubic inch V-8 engine that is kept cool by an upgraded aluminum radiator. This small block breathes in through a single four-barrel Edelbrock carburetor and exhales through a set of Hedman long tube headers that flow into a true dual exhaust capped off with a set of sweet-sounding Dynomax mufflers.
