Details

This Palomar Red 1963 Chevrolet Impala SS 2-door hardtop has been given a full frame-off restoration, and retains its original body panels and floors. Powering this Super Sport is a 409ci W-series big-block V8 engine that produces 340hp. The engine is mated to a Powerglide automatic transmission. At the top of that mill, a heavy-duty single-snorkel air cleaner forced oxygen into a large 4-barrel carburetor. Fuel and air flow from there into a factory iron intake that’s bordered by factory Chevrolet heads and chromed factory valve covers. Everything under the hood has been restored and detailed. The restored interior features a full set of original floor mats, vinyl upholstery, bucket seats, floor console with a floor-mounted chrome shifter and special SS door panel appliqués. There’s also a factory-installed tachometer on the dash, a factory tissue dispenser under the glove box and a Delco AM/FM radio. Correct carpeting and headliner round out the interior details. The fully restored trunk carries a correct mat with a full-sized spare. The chassis is detailed and the car is equipped with power brakes and power steering. A select offering from The Bryan Frank Collection.
