a 1963 Chevrolet Impala SS (option code Z03) hardtop in red over red, with the highly desirable dual-quad 409 and 4-speed manual.
The car has been professionally restored and is an excellent example of largely stock early-Sixties muscle.
The odometer shows 52,693 miles.
The Impala's exterior non-metallic red paint has been professionally refreshed to a very high standard.
Application is even and the high gloss is consistent across the entire body.
There is only minor light patina from use (notably near the door handles), but no dings, dents, or other damage.
Chrome bumpers, grille trim, window surrounds, body-side trim, door handles, and taillight trim (surrounding the anodized-aluminum rear panel) all display excellent surface finishes with minimal patina.
(To best assess the quality of the paint and trim finishes, please be sure to view the close-up photographs of the car in the accompanying gallery.
) Twin, period-correct angled antennas are mounted on the rear deck.
Correct, extensive factory badging includes the Chevrolet-crest hood ornament, Chevrolet embossing on the grille trim, 409 and crossed-flags front-fender emblems, leaping-impala SS rear-fender emblems, Impala embossed on the side trim, and another Chevrolet crest emblem on the trunk lid with Chevrolet embossed on the trim below.
Cabin glass and all lighting lenses (including on the six taillights denoting the top-of-the-line Impala model) are clear and uncracked.
SS-branded, stock, chrome, full-wheel covers and BFGoodrich Silvertown thin-whitewall tires are mounted.
The red-themed interior is a visual delight.
Horizontal-pattern, chrome-button-trimmed, red vinyl door panels (and rear-cabin side panels) in outstanding condition also include circular SS emblems.
Seat upholstery on the front buckets and rear bench (with radio speaker indent and Impala emblem) is identical, with the pattern switched to vertical.
Red looped-pile carpeting, also in excellent condition, covers the cabin floors, with rubber mats for protection.
The white headliner is free of imperfections and sagging.
A red, 2-spoke steering wheel with Impala Super Sport center emblem frames the instrumentation on the red, padded dashboard.
Most noteworthy is the factory-installed, optional 5,800-rpm-redline tachometer directly in the driver's line of sight.
The dashboard features handsome turned-metal trim, push-lever heat and ventilation controls, pull-lever operating controls, and the car's original AM push-button radio (with an updated Pioneer audio head unit added below the dash.
) Coolant-temperature and oil-pressure gauges are also mounted below the dash as they might well have b.
