Vehicle Description
Rarely do you get an opportunity at a true all-around stunner at an
obtainable price. But this nicely restored 1968 Chevrolet Impala
Custom Coupe is exactly that. Bold paint, interesting big block
power, and great upgrades like four-wheel disc brakes makes it the
one classic you'll want for everything.
Chevy fans know this is something very special. 1968 was the first
year for the Impala Custom Coupe. This gave the Impala the same
roofline as the top-dog Caprice, so this one not only has Super
Sport badges, but also a very regal appearance. Bringing these
ideas of performance and premium together perfectly is the paint.
This coupe has gone through a restoration that has resulted in a
beautiful shade of burgundy that has been applied to some of the
straightest sheetmetal around. It's an aggressive red appearance,
but the deeper luster of premium paint with a fine wine name. And
to go with the shimmering paint is some terrific brightwork. The
nicely integrated front bumper, trim around the windows, and the
cool rear bumper with the Impala's hallmark integrated triple
taillights have a fantastic mirror shine. You'll love the other
details, too. Especially how the grille is painted to match the
body, and even the steel on the iconic rally wheel package has the
shimmering burgundy.
This dual luxury and performance attitude continues on the nicely
restored interior. The black bucket seats are padded for comfort,
and the comfortable center console with iconic horseshoe shifter
completes the proper SS packaging. A full size car like this can
comfortably carry up to five people with ease, but even when you're
just cruising by yourself, this Impala is a great choice. After
all, you're going to love grabbing the three-spoke sports steering
wheel, and gazing at the classic speedometer that's as long as the
horizon. Plus, the pillarless profile that comes from rolling down
all the windows on this premium hardtop is worth the price all on
its own.
With a full-size classic Chevy that's been so well presented so
far, you're going be pleased when you lift the hood and see that
the big block is dressed to impress, too. This is a built 366
cubic-inch V8 which is a rarity that will make enthusiasts and car
show judges happy. And the bright orange block with shining valve
covers and air topper are true attention-getters. But more
importantly, you'll be delighted with the performance upgrades. The
big block inhales deeply from a Holley four-barrel carburetor and
Edelbrock intake. It exhales with authority from a set of long tube
headers that feed the rumbling stainless dual exhaust. And the TCI
400 three-speed automatic is stout enough to handle all this extra
muscle. But more than just a big power machine, this was built to
drive. That's why you have great features like the aluminum
radiator, new gas tank, and new alternator. Plus, there's upgraded
coilover springs in the front, and desirable training arms in the
rear rear, power steering, and four-wheel disc brakes.
Complete with owner's manual, the one classic that you'll want to
be seen in everywhere is also easy to drive anywhere. So when it's
available today at such an affordable price, you need to act
quickly before it's gone. Call now!!
