This 1963 Chevrolet Impala SS is a genuine SS model, as evident from the body stamp. While the car started off in excellent condition, it has undergone a remarkable transformation into a contemporary representation of a '63 Impala. Notably, it now features airbags and is equipped with 20-inch wheels in the front and larger 22-inch wheels in the rear.
The exterior of this Impala has undergone a stunning repaint in an exquisite silver blue shade with flake accents. The SS badging remains intact on the rear, and the only notable flaw is a minor imperfection near the rear left trunk corner, as visible in the pictures. The chrome elements of the car are truly exceptional, as showcased in the detailed images. The rear tail lights are nearly flawless and display the proper appearance. The trunk features both antennas, and the overall lines of the car are impeccable, underscoring why the Impala stood out as one of the most exquisite designs of its era.
The interior retains its period-correct design and proudly showcases the SS features, including logos, a center console, and an SS steering wheel complete with its horn emblem. The seat cushion appears to be in good shape, and the chrome accents throughout are in excellent condition. The blue carpet, some of which is original, pairs beautifully with the white headliner. Positioned in the center, beneath the stereo, you'll find the airbag controls. The dash has been enhanced with Dakota gauges, indicating just 108 miles since its new installation. There is also a bluetooth amp and speakers installed in the car.
Under the hood, this Impala SS boasts a potent 383 V8 engine, complete with a Holley Sniper EFI system and HEI ignition. Keeping temperatures in check is an aluminum radiator. The engine is enhanced by a new dual exhaust system featuring Flowmaster mufflers. Notably, the car has been equipped with a fresh clutch and a new gas tank, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
Featuring a Manual Air Ride system, the air tank is neatly situated in the trunk. The rear suspension benefits from QA1 adjustable shocks, while up front, tubular control arms equipped with a bump steering kit provide enhanced handling. The braking system boasts power brakes with Wilwood fronts and rebuilt rear drums, ensuring effective stopping power. This stylish ride rests on striking 20-inch Intro wheels at the front and commanding 22-inch Intro wheels at the rear. The inclusion of power steering adds to the overall ease of cruising.
This Impala looks great when illuminated by the sun. Currently available for purchase in Austin, TX,
