This stunning 1958 Chevrolet Impala Sports Coupe is a true
one-year-only classic, finished in Rio Red with an Arctic White
tri-color interior. This car has been treated to a complete
frame-off, nuts-and-bolts restoration and presents as an
exceptional example of Chevrolet's legendary first year Impala.
Under the hood is a 409-engine equipped with dual four-barrel
carburetors, producing an impressive 505 hp on the dyno. Also,
included with this sale, is the original 348 ci W-series Big Block
V8 triple-carburetor setup and automatic transmission, giving the
next owner the opportunity to enjoy another authentic and highly
desirable configuration. This Impala is loaded with distinctive and
rare features, including side exhaust ports, fender skirts, a
continental kit, and the rare vacuum ashtray. The combination of
its dramatic styling, unique options, and powerful W series big
block makes this a stand-out collector car. The 1958 Impala holds a
special place in Chevrolet history. It existed in this form for
just one year, riding on Chevrolet's unique X-frame chassis and
wearing body styling that would not be repeated. The Impala name
was introduced in 1958 as Chevrolet's top-trim Bel Air offering
before Chevrolet completely redesigned the lineup for 1959. The
Sport Coupe is especially desirable, with its distinctive
six-taillight design sculpted rear quarters, and dummy air
scoops-styling cues that have made the "58 one of the most
recognizable and collectible Chevrolets of the era. One year. One
iconic design. One exceptional Impala. This is a serious
collector-quality 1958 Chevrolet that deserves a serious look!
