Vehicle Description
This 1962 Chevrolet Impala coupe is an interesting lesson in
enduring honesty. It stays true to its original form right down to
the paint. And when so many survivor qualities are on such an
affordable classic, you can't help but get attached to it.
Take a moment to really appreciate what you checking out. The
code-938 Adobe Beige paint on this coupe shows all signs of being
original. That's more than half a century of surviving! Sure, there
are normal signs of use and age. But the kind of luster that
remains makes this coupe a legend, and it will certainly make
people's jaws drop when you tell them it's 55 years old. And with
all the correct badging and wheel covers in place, you can tell
someone really loved this coupe. But more than just a survivor,
you'll love this car for its classic American presentation. The
Impala was restyled this year to give it a thicker, more
sophisticated c-pillar. This was combined with a chrome separating
line at roof's base to create a hardtop convertible appearance that
has remained very popular today. The top-of-the-line Impala did
this particularly nicely with a brushed aluminum panel and six
taillight arrangement that was an exclusive standout. Another great
touch specially for the Impala was the chrome strip running the
length of the car in a progressive thickness. This appears like an
arrow pushing the coupe forward.
Inside is a more 1960s style presented with great preservation. The
factory-correct fawn cloth & vinyl combination has all the right
earthtone inserts on the seats to give this a very cool
representation of a premium '62 Impala. And side panels have a
button-top retro-cool design that will attract attention every time
you open the door. And of course, it wouldn't feel correct without
plenty of brightwork on dash. This lends a stylistic touch to
everything from the heat/defrost controls to the period-correct
tach mounted next to the steering column. The full-size sedan means
there's plenty of room to carry up to five family and friends along
for the ride, and you can even keep them entertained with a newer
AM/FM/CD stereo cleanly installed below the original AM unit.
Open the hood, and you're looking at a Chevrolet legend. After all,
the inline-six was the backbone of the bow tie well before the
small block. And you can really see a ton of period-correct
components and decals still in this engine bay. Powerful, reliable,
and easy to maintain, you'll attract plenty of attention from
people who didn't even remember the top-of-the-line Impala came
with a six-cylinder as standard. Plus, with power steering and
Powerglide automatic transmission, this one is still a very nice
and easy cruiser today.
Something this interesting and well preserved is rarely this
affordable. So you know you need to hurry if you want to make it
yours. Call today!!!
