This 1960 Chevrolet Impala two-door sport coupe was acquired by the current owner in 1996 and refurbished in 2019. It is powered by a 348ci V8 mated to a two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission, and it is finished in Roman Red over red and white cloth and vinyl upholstery. Details include a four-barrel carburetor, chrome bumpers, dual antennas, power-assisted brakes and steering, 14″ painted steel wheels, polished wheel covers, bench seating, front seatbelts, an AM radio, and polished dashboard trim. This Impala coupe is offered on dealer consignment with shop manuals and a clean California title.
The car left the factory finished in Roman Red (923) and a refurbishment completed in 2019 is said to have included removing the body from the frame and refinishing the car. Equipment includes quad headlights, chrome bumpers, dual antennas, horizontal tail fins, separate taillights, and bright trim.
Body-color 14″ steel wheels wear turbine-style polished covers and are mounted with Coker Classic whitewall tires. The car is equipped with power steering, and braking is provided by power-assisted front and rear drum brakes.
The cabin features bench seating upholstered in red and white cloth and vinyl, and a matching color scheme extends to the door panels. Interior appointments include front seatbelts, polished dashboard trim, manual-crank windows, an AM radio, and quarter-vent windows.
The two-spoke steering wheel features a semicircular chrome horn ring and fronts a 120-mph speedometer, an analog clock, a warning light cluster, and additional gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 102 miles. Total mileage is unknown.
The 348ci V8 features a four-barrel carburetor and a single-snorkel air cleaner assembly.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a two-speed Powerglide automatic transmission. Additional underbody photos are provided in the gallery.
