Chevy’s Impala was the famous Bowtie automaker’s full-size offering for many years. It appeared sporadically between 1957 and 2020 and made it across ten generations. The Impala is named, as you may suspect, after the African antelope of the same name. It quickly won favor with the American auto-loving public due to its diverse array of body styles and, of course, V8 power. Up for sale today is a third-generation 1961 Chevrolet Impala Bubbletop Restomod, which reportedly packs 45,000 original miles. But, it’s received a comprehensive do-over, more power, and some modern comfort features.
This black 1961 Chevrolet Impala Bubbletop Restomod sits on a tubular A-frame by Performance Online. This is all part of its frame-off restoration, which also reports the frame to be powder coated. Then, the car has been lowered and given a set of 18-inch Foose wheels. The lowering is around 2 inches at the front, and 3 inches at the rear, for that characteristic squat stance. Moving on, we find a rolled and pleated interior in red and white. There are new gauges, an Ididit steering column, leather upholstery, and functional air conditioning. The current owner says that the original steering column is included. Take a few moments to marvel at the beautiful Art Deco-styled dashboard, with ample servings of chrome, and yet, it is a study in simplicity. Even the Bluetooth radio head unit is a retro-modern styled unit that doesn’t detract from the overall aesthetic of this typically '60s interior. Since this is a full-size car, you’ve got bench seats front and rear that will have seen six adults in their heyday. Today, you’d be better off sticking to four, two per bench. As for the trunk, it’s similarly capacious and includes the spare wheel, wrapped in a matching red and white cover.
This 1961 Chevrolet Impala Bubbletop Restomod has a 409ci V8, which was one of the stock offerings, but the engine has reportedly been bored out to 474ci. That, plus several other enhancements that include a Holley fuel injection set-up, means that it’s good for 475hp as per the current owner’s dyno provenance. The power is sent to the rear wheels through a 4-speed Muncie manual gearbox and a 350 Ford rear end with Positraction by Strange Sanderson Headers. Furthermore, you’ve got front and rear disc brakes with power assistance to easily tackle the enhanced power.

Chevy’s Impala was the famous Bowtie automaker’s full-size offering for many years. It appeared sporadically between 1957 and 2020 and made it across ten generations. The Impala is named, as you may suspect, after the African antelope of the same name. It quickly won favor with the American auto-loving public due to its diverse array of body styles and, of course, V8 power. Up for sale today is a third-generation 1961 Chevrolet Impala Bubbletop Restomod, which reportedly packs 45,000 original miles.

The Chevrolet Impala has played the role of the Bowtie’s flagship full-size car for years. Produced over ten generations, the Impala was first introduced in 1957. Named after the eponymous African antelope, the first generation was strictly a two-door affair. Buyers could choose a coupe or convertible. If you’d like to own a classic Impala but with a bit more pep up and go, this 1958 Chevrolet Impala is a worthy contender. The car comes with an upgraded engine, but remains otherwise stock as far as possible. That makes it a lovely classic car to own and drive, but something to surprise other classics with when the mood strikes.
These good old classic American motors sure brought their A-game when it came to churning out cars that are unique in every aspect. Turn back the clock to the 1960s, and machines like this lovely 1968 Chevrolet Impala Convertible would roll off dealership floors and gain attention on every drive. What's better? This classic American motor is reported to be an SS conversion and still grabs attention no matter where you go or who you park next to.
Chevy’s Camaro was introduced in 1967, along with its sibling, the Pontiac Firebird. This duo from General Motors took aim at Ford’s runaway success in the pony car segment, the Mustang. How could Ford have all the fun? The General had to respond, and they fired back with this one-two salvo. Thanks to their efforts, we’ve seen many Mustang vs Camaro battles, and eager enthusiasts on both sides. Heck, you’ll even find collectors with both models in their custody, and they’re hard-pressed to pick a favorite. However, 2024 was a sad year for the Camaro, as Chevy stopped making it. They haven’t said anything about a successor, yet. But you can wipe away those tears and put a smile on your face by purchasing this reported 900-horsepower 2018 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 from us. The car’s got a new engine with just 2,500 miles on it, and a slew of upgrades. The current owner also reports the presence of documentation and receipts to back up the work done to make it what it is today.
Would you like to own a vehicle that’s a sports car and a pickup truck rolled into one surprisingly stylish package? Well, that’s what the Chevy El Camino has been offering for several years, until it bowed out in 1987. This interesting body style provided the ride quality and handling of a car, paired with some load-lugging capabilities more atypical of pickup trucks. Called the Coupe Utility segment, this would go on to become immensely popular in countries such as Australia and South Africa. So if you’re a Coupe Utility fan, check out this 1987 Chevrolet El Camino SS with just 5,000 original miles that we’re selling right now. The current owner reports that it’s had a recent oil change, and comes with a maintenance manual, plus an original car cover to keep it safe should you need to park it outdoors.
With its sleek styling and relatively modern features, the C5 or fifth-generation Corvette is a great place to start your Corvette journey. It’s a definite future classic, but isn’t too old that you’ve got to baby it. Produced between 1997 and 2005, the C5 also marked the last generation to have the pop-up headlamps. That, plus many other reasons, mean that this 2000 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is a great contender for that extra spot in your car collection. This reportedly all-original car has done 32,000 miles, which is lighter than average. So, it’s in great condition as a result.
The fourth-generation Ford Fairlane of the ‘60s offered a happy middle ground for those who wanted a large sedan or coupe but didn’t want to stretch to the levels that the Galaxie offered. Our featured Ford Fairlane has been on the receiving end of some loving restoration work and reports an all-new interior along with other key components. With a 260ci V8 engine, the owner reports a mileage of 47,200 on the odometer.
