Background Story of this 1961 Chevrolet Impala

Overview of 1961 Chevrolet Impala For Sale by Owner

The 1961 Chevrolet Impala is one of the most recognizable early-60s American coupes, known for its sweeping side trim, quad headlights, and jet-age design language. This example has been transformed into an LS-swapped restomod while retaining much of its original character inside and out. Finished in green with a white interior, the car features a recently installed LS1 V8 with approximately 94,601 miles on the engine. The firewall has been painted in candy apple red, highlighting the custom drivetrain installation, though the exterior paintwork remains unfinished and the seller has noted a quarter panel issue pending further documentation. Sitting on 22-inch wheels, this Impala blends classic styling with modern performance, presenting as a partially completed project with strong mechanical foundations.

Exterior and Interior

The exterior of this 1961 Chevrolet Impala is finished in green and rides on large 22-inch 5-spoke aftermarket wheels that dramatically modernize its stance. The chrome bumpers, quad headlight front fascia, and signature side insert trim remain intact, preserving the unmistakable early-60s Impala profile. While the body presents well from a distance, the paintwork is described as unfinished, and there is a noted quarter panel issue that will require attention. The candy apple red firewall under the hood adds a custom touch and contrasts sharply with the exterior color, signaling the car’s restomod direction. The interior of this 1961 Chevrolet Impala retains a largely factory-style appearance with white vinyl bench seating and a classic horizontal speedometer dashboard. The dash is painted to match the exterior theme, and the original-style steering wheel and trim remain in place, maintaining period-correct charm. Modern upgrades include Pioneer door-mounted speakers and a Pioneer 4-channel amplifier mounted in the trunk, supported by upgraded wiring. The combination of vintage aesthetics and updated audio components gives the cabin a usable, driver-oriented feel while still reflecting the car’s project status.The interior of this 1961 Chevrolet Impala Sport Coupe Restomod features white bench seats for front and rear occupants, a period dashboard and a sporty aftermarket steering wheel. We see some upgraded speakers and a Pioneer 4-channel amplifier resides in the trunk. Everything else looks more or less as it came from the factory, albeit still in great condition.

Engine

Under the hood sits a 5.7-liter naturally aspirated LS1 V8 equipped with electronic fuel injection, offering modern reliability and drivability compared to the factory carbureted engines originally available in 1961. The engine installation appears complete and features an aluminum radiator, electric cooling fans, and long-tube headers. Power is routed through an automatic transmission, most likely a 4L60E, sending power to the rear wheels. The LS1 powertrain delivers modern performance and reliability, making this Impala far more usable than a stock early-’60s cruiser while still leaving room for the next owner to refine and complete the cosmetic details to their own vision.

1967 Chevrolet Impala

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$29,984
SOLD

The 1967 Chevrolet Impala occupies a unique place in American automotive culture, famously sharing its model year with the iconic “Baby” from the television series Supernatural. While this example is configured as a 2-door hardtop rather than the well-known 4-door sedan driven by the Winchester brothers, it remains no less compelling in its own right. Finished in black and powered by a big-block V8, this Impala delivers the visual presence and mechanical substance that defined Chevrolet’s full-size performance offerings of the era. Features such as a push-button starter and a period-correct radio further enhance its appeal, blending classic character with functional usability. Belonging to the fourth-generation Impala produced between 1965 and 1970, this car represents a mature and desirable chapter in the model’s evolution. As an authentic American classic with strong cultural recognition and enduring mechanical appeal, it stands as a rewarding vehicle to own, drive, and preserve, with desirability that continues to grow over time.

2007 Chevrolet Corvette

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$33,999

In 2005, Chevrolet revealed the all-new C6 or sixth generation Corvette. It did away with pop-up headlamps due to tightening safety regulations, but improved upon the C5 in nearly every other way. Whether it be power, performance or luxury features, the C6 represented a healthy upgrade over the C5. That’s why even today, C6 Corvettes like this 2007 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe are considered to be a great way to sample America’s greatest home-grown sports car marque. This particular car has just 14,732 miles on the clock and comes from Colorado. It’s got the 3LT Preferred Equipment Group, the Magnetic Selective Ride Control adaptive suspension system and a lovely 6.0-liter naturally aspirated V8 under the hood.
