1963 Chevrolet Impala -- Description

Not only is it a member of true boulevard royalty that's been memorialized in print, on screen and in song, but this 1963 Chevrolet Impala is also a great looking and skillfully modified ride that's been equipped with a potent, modern engine, a killer stance and an upgraded suspension to go along with its revered iconic body style. A proud member of the model's third generation, this Impala features a noticeably more trim, boxy form than... its predecessors of just a few years earlier, especially as far as its more reined in rear fenders and tail. The sharp burgundy shade it wears is a stand-out color and is in good shape, with a nice even shine from front to back and no glaring blemishes in sight. An ultra-low stance and compact wheels peeking out from the fenders are a couple of other elements that draw you in right away - this is definitely a ride that will turn heads on the boulevard and is capable of making a big impact on the local car show circuit as well. The entire collection of chrome this classic carries is really in impressive shape, especially considering it's likely been on board from the beginning. Up front, the intricate grille wears a pair of dual headlights and sits nice and level, while in back, the dual triple taillights look very fresh as they straddle a signature Chevy emblem mounted on the center of the deck lid. The red vinyl interior remains in its stock configuration and makes for a nostalgia inducing driving environment. The bench seats in front and back are in fine condition, wearing well-fitted covers that blend vinyl and cloth while sporting plenty of padding for comfort and they're bracketed by door panels and quarter trim in matching condition. The dash area offers a coved instrument panel that was a defining styling cue for this generation of Impalas, as well as chrome accents that provide a great contrast to the red steel just behind them, with factory gauges that are all functioning as intended. A level and uncracked dash pad resides just above and in dash vents are in place at each side - a simple Freon charge is all that needed to bring the air conditioning back to speed. The trunk area in back is nice and roomy, and with no lining covering its floor, you can see that it's in solid shape. A Compstar FMX alarm system makes sure this one of a kind ride never leaves your possession unintended. Underneath the hood, a fresh 350 cubic inch crate engine sits at the center of one seriously clean engine compartment, sporting March performance pulleys up front, a Holley 4-barrel carb underneath its chrome air cleaner and a pair of chrome valve covers on its sides. It's paired with a 3-speed automatic TCI350 transmission that's shifting with slip-free precision and this Chevy's performance abilities are further amplified by added Hotchkiss rear traction bars to ensure that the power reaches the pavement with efficiency. This icon rides on a top tier Accuair suspension that provides chameleon-like adjustability and is easily navigated by a controller mounted below the driver's seat. The brake system has been upgraded with power disc brakes at all four corners for fade resistant stopping power, while power steering makes for easy maneuverability as this beloved cruiser prowls the asphalt on its 13" Spoke wheels. This 1963 Chevrolet Impala represents the rare opportunity to own a nostalgia-inducing classic that's looking sharp and is well-equipped to hit the road with plenty of gusto. Call today!
