The post-World War II era witnessed an unprecedented boom in the automotive industry, where innovation and breakthroughs thrived. Amid the affluence and burgeoning economy of the 1950s, a sense of class and sophistication permeated the automotive landscape. Chevrolet, a venerable marque founded in 1911, seized this golden era to introduce their luxurious full-size car, the Chevrolet Impala, in 1958. The Impala's iconic triple taillight setup became its hallmark feature. With a production run spanning until 2020, the Impala evolved through nine distinctive generations. After a brief experimental deviation in the second generation, the following iteration recaptured the true essence of the Impala. Today, we present a meticulously reborn 1961 Chevrolet Impala, a classic bearing a set of enhancements and a mere 4,250 miles on its reborn journey.
The 1961 Chevrolet Impala stands apart with an entirely redesigned aesthetic, featuring the now-famous bubbletop roofline. Its low-slung front fascia showcases a dazzling chrome grille, adorned with quad taillights and the iconic Chevrolet emblem at its heart. The hood proudly displays chrome hood ornaments flanking the bold CHEVROLET lettering. The rear of the car embraces a tapered V design, where the triple taillight arrangement takes center stage. Resplendent in a striking Victory Red finish, this classic beauty rests upon a set of brand-new 18" Riddler multispoke wheels gleaming in chrome, complemented by the presence of vibrant red Wilwood brake calipers. Stepping inside, a polished chrome door sill bearing the iconic "Body by FISHER" emblem welcomes you. The interior is adorned with fresh components, including a completely new floor and trunk well. The seats, sourced from a 2005 GTO, radiate a harmonious blend of red and white, with SS stitching embellishing the headrests. Traditional gauges have given way to state-of-the-art Dakota Digital gauges, while the vintage steering wheel, ensconced in red and white wrapping, is a striking centerpiece. The realm of comfort is further elevated by the inclusion of air conditioning, courtesy of Vintage Air.
The original 1961 Chevrolet Impala offered a range of engine options, spanning from a modest 2.8L six-cylinder to a commanding 7.0L V8. However, in pursuit of enhanced performance, the seller has replaced the powerplant with a formidable 5.7L (350ci) Vortec Blueprint engine, generating a robust 375hp. This potent engine harmonizes seamlessly with a 700 R4 4-speed automatic transmission. An array of upgrades, including a Griffin aluminum radiator, power steering, tubular A-frames (both upper and lower), 9" Ford positraction, and front and rear 1.25" sway bars, heighten the driving experience. The Continental tires, currently fitted, boast fewer than 2,000 miles of road life. This reborn 1961 Chevrolet Impala marries the elegance of the past with the performance of the present.
Chevy’s Impala was the famous Bowtie automaker’s full-size offering for many years. It appeared sporadically between 1957 and 2020 and made it across ten generations. The Impala is named, as you may suspect, after the African antelope of the same name. It quickly won favor with the American auto-loving public due to its diverse array of body styles and, of course, V8 power. Up for sale today is a third-generation 1961 Chevrolet Impala Bubbletop Restomod, which reportedly packs 45,000 original miles. But, it’s received a comprehensive do-over, more power, and some modern comfort features.
The Chevrolet Impala has played the role of the Bowtie’s flagship full-size car for years. Produced over ten generations, the Impala was first introduced in 1957. Named after the eponymous African antelope, the first generation was strictly a two-door affair. Buyers could choose a coupe or convertible. If you’d like to own a classic Impala but with a bit more pep up and go, this 1958 Chevrolet Impala is a worthy contender. The car comes with an upgraded engine, but remains otherwise stock as far as possible. That makes it a lovely classic car to own and drive, but something to surprise other classics with when the mood strikes.
These good old classic American motors sure brought their A-game when it came to churning out cars that are unique in every aspect. Turn back the clock to the 1960s, and machines like this lovely 1968 Chevrolet Impala Convertible would roll off dealership floors and gain attention on every drive. What's better? This classic American motor is reported to be an SS conversion and still grabs attention no matter where you go or who you park next to.
Chevy’s C/K Series has been doing yeoman service for countless enterprising Americans since it was introduced in 1959. The C/K ran until 2002, when the Silverado took over; prior to this, Silverado was a trim level. Case in point: this 1989 Chevrolet C3500 Silverado from the fourth generation. The vehicle reportedly underwent a frame-off restoration in 2019, and sports a rebuilt engine with under 1,000 miles done since then. Furthermore, this truck comes with some nice convenience features that will make it an attractive modern classic, plus a potential daily driver.
Chevy’s Camaro was introduced in 1967, along with its sibling, the Pontiac Firebird. This duo from General Motors took aim at Ford’s runaway success in the pony car segment, the Mustang. How could Ford have all the fun? The General had to respond, and they fired back with this one-two salvo. Thanks to their efforts, we’ve seen many Mustang vs Camaro battles, and eager enthusiasts on both sides. Heck, you’ll even find collectors with both models in their custody, and they’re hard-pressed to pick a favorite. However, 2024 was a sad year for the Camaro, as Chevy stopped making it. They haven’t said anything about a successor, yet. But you can wipe away those tears and put a smile on your face by purchasing this reported 900-horsepower 2018 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 from us. The car’s got a new engine with just 2,500 miles on it, and a slew of upgrades. The current owner also reports the presence of documentation and receipts to back up the work done to make it what it is today.
The C7 or seventh generation Corvette is the last of the front-engined brigade of America’s most-loved sports car. When the C8 dropped in 2020, it shifted to a mid-engined layout and went chasing baby supercars. That means cars like this 2015 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 Coupe 3LZ are highly desirable items, future classics, and the best way to enjoy American power and handling. Bearing a mere 39,000 miles, this car is now up for sale, and you’d better act quickly if it takes your fancy.
Among those who enjoy driving about in good-looking cars, there is a small group who prefer the look of a mundane car with a classic historic flare. If that is your cup of tea, this 1993 Cadillac Allante is an excellent choice for you. While it blends well with day-to-day traffic, it boasts a stately personality. After all, it is a Cadillac. It was marketed as a two-seater luxury roadster, so it looks even classy with its top down. The Allante model saw a seven-year production run and the bodies were built in Italy by iconic coachbuilder Pininfarina. Our subject example only has 65,000 miles on its clock and is currently residing in Florida. Its owner claims that it comes with 3 keys and all the service is up to date.
If German automotive brands are famous for one thing, it is their build quality. You can opt for one of their models from the ‘70s and they will likely still run as if they were built a couple of years back. To be quite frank, they don’t make them like that anymore. For example, the 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL is built like a tank, and we aren’t the only ones who think so. With proper maintenance, these beautiful cruisers will probably run forever. What we are featuring here is an all-original 1979 Mercedes-Benz 450SL Convertible showing 119,000 miles on its clock. It is currently in South Carolina and it's a great opportunity to experience what the three-pointed Star had to offer back in the '70s.
The Cadillac De Ville was introduced in 1958, as a full-size luxury car from America’s top luxury automaker at the time. De Ville means “of the town” in French, meaning that Cadillac intended the De Ville to be the talk of the town. The first generation is the most popular, naturally, thanks to its iconic shape and rear fins. In 1961, the second generation was introduced, with fresh styling and more body styles. Buyers could now pick from a four-door hardtop with four or six windows, a 2-door hardtop, or a 2-door convertible. If you’ve been trying to get your hands on a De Ville, check out this 56,435-mile 1964 Cadillac De Ville Sedan that’s up for sale right now. The current owner reports it to have been restored, hence its pristine appearance.
