Description

Chassis No. 166675Y235064

Prior to acquisition by the consignor, this 1965 Chevrolet Impala SS was the subject of a meticulous restoration where great lengths were taken to restore rather than replace and to use NOS parts wherever possible. Its original build sheet accompanies it, confirming this Impala SS was ordered with a four-speed manual transmission. Power comes from a 396 cu-in V8 which was rated to produce 325 horsepower and resides in a remarkably well detailed engine bay. Finished in a sleek Danube Blue poly exterior over a nicely contrasting light blue interior with sport bucket seats, this Impala was a fierce competitor at AACA events, even bringing home an AACA Senior First Prize in 2016. As per the consignor, the motor and drivetrain in this vehicle are original and correct. With a well-known ownership history and photos of the original owner with the car, this Impala SS has since been well cared for by a devoted collector and automotive enthusiast.
