1962 Chevrolet Impala Restomod
Some cars are just slicker than others. After all, that's why you stopped to check out this 1962 Chevrolet Impala Restomod. With less than 250 miles since its frame-off restoration, it's the perfect mix of butter-smooth freshness and serious upgrades in the driving experience.
You already know why the '62 Impala is such a cool ride. Unique styling touches makes a hardtop like this premium and sporty all in the first glance. This kind of lineage is why the blue/black paint has been given the right investments to give it the kind of high gloss shine that instantly attracts attention. Yes, we called this car blue. It might look black from a distance, but when the light hits paint just right, it releases a terrific deep blue tone. That's the difference a modern metallic paint with clearcoat makes. And because it's so fresh from restoration, this Impala is still butter-smooth. Plus, this one has all the right brightwork elements from the large wraparound bumpers, to the grille, to the intricate gunsight the gun-sight fender ornaments. It all looks mirror-like from a fresh investment. And all your favorite classic pieces are in place from the sporty crease in the hood line, to the iconic six-element taillights. But now these are joined by great upgrades like the wide side exhaust tips and 17/18 inch front/rear alloys that let you know there is more going on here than just a stellar restoration.
The aggressive red streak on the exterior profile is a great preview of what awaits you in the fully restored interior. The lipstick red on the door panels, headliner, trunk, and button-top seats are so fresh, it almost will feel like driving out of our dealership is like leaving the Chevy showroom in 1962. But then again, you're going to spot a ton of great modern upgrades. For example, the custom steering wheel and tilt column have a great bright appearance to go with all the brightwork on the dash. Plus, the radio might look like a classic unit, but your tunes are really coming from a connection for the most modern music players. This controls a full custom stereo system that includes powered subwoofers. There's even ice-cold R134a air conditioning. So roll down all the windows on this pillarless hardtop, crank up the tunes, and stay as cool as you look cruising around town.
With a vehicle that looks so fresh inside and out, you better believe the engine bay is worth showing off, too. The V8 shines brightly with the valve covers, air topper, master cylinder, and much more radiating from within the slick dark blue engine bay. And more than just look powerful, this is a mighty 383 cubic-inch stroker motor. It has been enhanced with an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, performance intake, and Hedman ceramic-coated headers that add even more power as they contribute to the rumbling dual exhaust. And the fresh presentation continues in the undercarriage photos. More than just new components and fresh bushings, you'll also see great upgrades like four-wheel disc brakes. Plus, there's great driving features like power steering, a TH350 three-speed automatic transmission, and a three-row copper radiator with dual Spal electric fans (it will keep you cool even in traffic.)
