1969 Chevrolet Impala 396 Custom Coupe 396 Cubic Inch - Automatic Turbo Hydra-matic Frame Off Restoration 6(+) Years Ago -3rd Owner 73,717 Miles -with only 12,000 on the Restoration Take a close look at this Big Block American Cruiser from the late 60 s!

The repaint is correct to the original color of Azure Turquoise (Blue) and the interior is matching code cloth (the Reveille Impala Cloth is really cool (literally!) and is a nice switch from the more common vinyl interior).

For driving enjoyment, the performance enhancements, including the added 4bbl to the 396 , brought the horsepower increase to about 325. The valves have been hardened, so unleaded premium fuel is perfect. The dual exhaust includes the Mufflers and Resonators. The 2 Dropped Spindle kit gives it a more aggressive wedge stance combined with the staggered upsized
