Cruise low and slow in this beautiful Impala.

The third-generation Chevrolet Biscayne/Bel Air/Impala are a favorite among customizers, and it's easy to see why. These cars have an incredible design with clean, smooth lines that easily complement modifications including a lowered stance. This 1961 Chevrolet Impala sedan currently being sold by AutoBarn Classics is a perfect example with its custom paint job, air ride suspension and eye-catching style.

Whether it's slammed on the ground or raised up for cruising, this bubbletop looks amazing with its Ermine White paint job and subtle teal accents. Normally, the massive 22-inch polished chrome Centerline wheels would be the highlight of this car's exterior, but you can't beat the look of this sedan with the surf board mounted on the roof. The two-tone interior features light teal accents (color matched to the exterior) over darker teal and blue trim, and the shift lever is topped by a tiki head to tie in with the beach/surfer vibe.

The listing says that the car has been partially restored, but everywhere you look, this Impala is in great condition. That is especially true under the hood where the 283 CID V8 sits in a super-clean engine compartment, and it's backed by GM's smooth two-speed PowerGlide transmission. The AirPod air suspension system allows the Impala to sit real low for shows, but it also raises up with enough room to make it ideal for driving around.
