Up for sale in our Tampa showroom is this stunning 1962 Chevrolet
Impala. Up for sale in our Tampa Showroom is quite possibly one of
the most iconic cars of the 1960s, the 1962 Chevrolet Impala 409
with a 4 speed manual and loaded with options. Iconicized in all
kinds of pop culture from movies, to even inspiring "The Beach
Boys" to write a song about it. "She's real fine, my 409" sums this
car up in a nutshell. Not only is this Impala a great Sunday
cruiser, it is also one of the most sought after cars at a car
show, sure to grab attention from any angle, and any kind of car
enthusiast. The 1962 Impala 409 was made famous from the
introduction in the late 50's into the world, starting it's life as
a Bel Air. It quickly rose to power in the automotive world in 1958
for its combination of pure American Power, Luxurious comfort
options, and truly American exterior styling. Built to compete in a
market that brought us the Cadillac Deville and the Chrysler
Imperial, Chevrolet had a lot of ground to cover in it's sport
luxury market, and the Impala 409 was the answer. The engine is
built with a dual quad setup, making sure this big block stays fed
under all conditions, as it thrusts raw power through the
drivetrain. Maintaining the power is a 4-speed manual transmission,
which gives you the muscle car feel, without taking too much from
the luxury concept. Inside the car, you find yourself surround by
pure luxury and style, ranging from the extremely plush Vinyl and
cloth split bench seats up front, and the bench seats in the back.
It's very easy in a car like this to drop the windows, grab all of
your friends, and head down to the beach. The exterior is painted
in a stunning combination of Ermine White roof, with Twilight
Turquoise lower body, this car has the perfect styling you could
want in a classic 1962 Chevrolet Impala. This beauty has a 409 with
dual quads sitting under the hood, options to please and looks to
kill! New A/C, power steering, power brakes, aluminum alloy wheels,
radial tires and cloth/vinyl interior. A new Bosch tachometer sits
above the custom Grant steering wheel so you can keep an eye on
your shift points. The 4 speed manual transmission is shifted
through a Hurst floor shifter to keep you in control. An
Offenhauser intake is topped with two 4 barrel Edelbrock
carburetors and a new alternator was just added, along with an
electric cooling fan. To see this car in person, including over 100
