Adapting to the times is of utmost importance to any manufacturer; take the Chevrolet Impala, for instance. Owning one is a reliable and efficient way of getting around, but turn back the clock to where it all started, and you did get a reliable way of getting around plus a lot of flair and 50s charm. Available in multiple trims and firepower to choose from, car buyers were in for a treat when driving off in their vintage Americana. It's time you treated yourself to this lovely 1959 Chevrolet Impala Convertible, we have today. With a reported 155,000 miles on the clock, this car is a two-time winner of the Palo Alto heritage show and one epic way to cruise down the weekend.

Exterior and Interior

50s car design was never to be replicated or carried on from its time. The long, swooping body lines and iconic features symbolize design excess, and when looking at this 1959 Chevrolet Impala Convertible with its orange exterior, excess sure can't be too bad. Looking at the car in person, you instantly know it's an award-winning car too. The exterior trim is in place with the vehicle featuring a small two-tone color scheme with a white stripe at the rear and connecting to those iconic teardrop rear lights. The car also sits on its original wheels, finished off in orange to match the exterior and riding on a set of whitewall tires for that added vintage feel. Turning our gaze to this 1959 Chevrolet Impala Convertible's orange interior, you sure can bask in all the 50s goodness. The orange interior is made to match the exterior and features all its trim in place, from the funky bench seats to the factory orange Chevrolet steering wheel.

Engine

Standing back, you would notice that this 1959 Chevrolet Impala Convertible is a fairly large car; fortunately, under the hood lies a 327ci V8 powertrain that's more than capable of getting it going. The engine is reported to have been rebuilt in 1994 by the seller. Power is sent to the car's rear wheels through an automatic transmission which is also reported to have been rebuilt at the same time as the engine.
