Vehicle Description
Offered here is a beautifully presented 1969 Chevrolet Impala
Convertible, a true piece of classic American cruising history
equipped with an incredibly desirable and numbers-matching big
block 427 cubic inch Turbo Jet V8. Factory-rated at 335 horsepower,
this L36 powerplant remains paired to its original Turbo 400
automatic transmission, delivering the smooth, effortless
performance that helped define Chevrolet's full-size offerings of
the late 1960s. This Impala is not only an authentic
numbers-matching example but also retains its original Dover White
exterior finish (Code 50) and factory red vinyl bucket seat
interior, creating a highly appealing and correct color
combination.
While Super Sport badges were added for appearance, this car is not
a factory SS-however, its presence and performance certainly make
it feel like one. The big block 427 breathes through a newer dual
exhaust system and sounds every bit the part of a high-performance
grand tourer. The drivetrain is rounded out by a stout 12-bolt
rear, providing excellent reliability and power delivery.
Highly optioned for the year, this Impala features power steering
and power front disc brakes, making it an easy and enjoyable car to
drive on modern roads. It also includes power windows, power door
locks, a tilt steering wheel, and a fully functional power
convertible top with a rear glass window. The white convertible top
is in excellent condition and comes with a matching boot for a
clean appearance when down.
The interior remains impressively original and shows the kind of
careful ownership that's becoming increasingly rare. From the
factory red vinyl bucket seats to the center console and trim
pieces, everything speaks to the authenticity and charm of a
well-preserved 1960s convertible. Even the rare C75 Comfortron
factory air conditioning option is still installed and complete.
The A/C system currently cycles but will require a recharge, either
with R134A or R12, depending on the buyer's preference. The
original air cleaner is also included in the sale, allowing for an
easy return to factory-correct engine bay detailing if desired.
A more modern retro-style AM/FM radio is currently installed for
better sound and usability, but the original unit comes with the
car as well. Additionally, the car retains its G67 auto-level
control option-another rarity that underscores how well-equipped
this Impala was when ordered new.
Cosmetically, the car has received an older repaint in its correct
Dover White. It still presents very nicely, although some minor
imperfections and flaws can be seen upon close inspection, which
are pointed out in the photo gallery. Importantly, all original
sheet metal and floors remain intact and solid, reflecting this
Impala's honest survivor nature. It rides on new BF Goodrich white
letter radial tires, which complement the original-style rally
wheels perfectly. Recently installed new springs and shocks help
the car cruise with confidence and comfort.
In total, this 1969 Chevrolet Impala Convertible is a rare find: a
factory big-block, numbers-matching, well-optioned example with
timeless styling and true drivability. Whether you're looking for a
vintage convertible to enjoy on summer weekends or a
collector-quality piece with muscle car underpinnings, this Impala
checks all the right boxes. It's ready to be driven, shown, and
appreciated-just as Chevrolet intended over half a century ago.
