When it comes to comfort, power, and presence, there isn't a whole lot of classics that can beat Chevrolet's legendary Impala. With their long, low, and wide bodylines, it isn't a surprise why the Impala was such a hit in its day. And, looking at this stunning example of a 1962 Chevrolet Impala, it's easy to see why. Dressed exactly how it would have came from the factory, '60s style doesn't get a whole lot better than this. And, with only 23,162 miles showing on the odometer, there's a lot of life left in it! Powered by a GF-code 283 C.I. V8 breathing through a 2-barrel carburetor, this '62 Impala makes for one sweet cruiser. Torque is transferred to the pavement by a 2-speed "Powerglide" automatic transmission, which shifts seamlessly as this Impala runs down the road. The exterior features of this Impala are clean and laser-straight, featuring a fantastic older white paintjob that still shows well. Complimenting red trim ensures that this Impala sticks out, and the chrome brightwork is in excellent shape! Additionally, the floors, frame, trunk and jambs are all also in good condition as well. Opening the two doors to the inside of this Impala reveals an extremely original red cloth & vinyl interior, complete with comfy split-bench seats that are perfect for car shows or long-distance drives. Options on this fantastic '62 Chevy include power steering, power brakes, factory gauges, the original AM pushbutton radio, a heater + defroster, vent windows, under-dash gauges, and a sweet-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides on a sleek set of 15" Chevrolet rally wheels over RWL tires for a killer-looking stance that's hard to beat! This '62 Impala runs and drives just as good as it looks, and that 283 V8 allows the car to move its weight just fine. If you're looking for a wonderfully-driving classic that makes some good power while also making a statement in vintage style at the very same time, then this may just be what you're looking for.
