This 1960 Chevrolet Impala convertible was refurbished during prior ownership and is powered by a 348ci V8 paired with a three-speed manual transmission. Finished in red over a red and white interior, it is equipped with a white soft top, power steering, and a dual exhaust system. The selling dealer acquired the car in 2018, and subsequent service included rebuilding the front suspension and an oil change. This Impala is now offered in Minnesota with a clean Ohio title.
The car was repainted in red during prior ownership and features a white soft top. Equipment includes quadruple headlamps, a wraparound windshield, rear wheel spats, and horizontal tail fins as well as chrome bumpers and trim. Blemishes are noted in the paint, and the condition of the finish can be viewed in close-up images provided in the gallery below.
Steel wheels wear full covers and are mounted with wide-whitewall tires. The car is equipped with power steering, and the front suspension was rebuilt and an alignment was performed by the selling dealer.
The interior features seats trimmed in red and white vinyl with houndstooth inserts, matching doors panels, and carpets protected by red rubber floor mats. Appointments include hand-crank windows, and a push-button radio with a rear-mounted speaker. There are chips in the paint on the dashboard and steering column.
Instrumentation includes a 120-mph speedometer, a clock, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows just under 6k miles, approximately 2k of which were added by the selling dealer. Total mileage is unknown.
The 348ci V8 is fitted with a Carter four-barrel carburetor and sends power to the rear wheels through a column-shifted three-speed manual transmission. The selling dealer performed an oil service and topped off the fluids.
