1959 Chevrolet Impala

The car underwent a repaint in factory Roman Red under previous ownership, and its current condition can be seen in detail in the photo gallery. The exterior boasts quadruple headlamps, almond-shaped air inlets, a wraparound windshield, rear wheel spats, horizontal tail fins, and “cat-eye” taillights. The steel wheels feature a matching red finish and wear full spinner-style covers and wide-whitewall tires. The car also comes with a matching spare in the rear-mounted Continental kit. It is also equipped with power-assisted steering and brakes.

Inside, the car carries the monochromatic red treatment to the steel dashboard, replacement seat upholstery with tri-tone inserts, and matching door panels. Amenities include a heater, defroster, and a modern retro-style stereo with USB as well as an RCA Victor record player mounted under the dash. The stock steering wheel with white accents and a horn ring frames the instrumentation.

The 348ci Super Turbo-Thrust V8 engine is equipped with three Rochester two-barrel carburetors and wears a casting number featuring the digits 3755011, indicating a W-block 348ci engine produced between 1958-1961. The GB suffix on the pad stamping corresponds with a 280-horsepower version for Powerglide-equipped applications. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission. The gallery shows the condition of the refurbished suspension, floor pans, exhaust system, fuel tank, and other underbody items.
