1970 Chevrolet Impala Convertible Additional Info:
Large, striking, and rare, this 1970 Chevrolet Impala convertible is everything you love about a cool cruising droptop, right down to its original V8 under the hood. And so it's amazing you can get something this complete and well presented for such an affordable price.
A bright red convertible is always something we love. This one was upgraded to the radiant color later in life, and so the modern clearcoat finish loves to show off the overall quality application. It's even nicely detailed with some even brighter red pinstriping. Plus, all the factory brightwork looks quite nice. This includes the angular front bumper and the form-fitting rear bumper with the Impala's hallmark integrated triple taillights. The trim strip that runs from nose to tail does a great job of highlighting how straight the panels are. And adding to both shine and stance of this classic are a set of iconic Cragar SS wheels.
The black convertible top looks quite nice against the red, but with the flip of a switch, it powers down to reveal the timeless appeal of a saddle tan interior. This gives a nice first impression for this premium full-size Impala. The tasteful tan looks good on the seats, dash, and door panels. It's also nicely detailed with a button-top presentation and plenty of wood-like trim. And within this vintage look you also have some nice cruiser-style additions, like the AM/FM/cassette radio and a VDO tach mounted on the steering column. Not only does this presentation look good, but you also have rarity on your side. While we love convertibles today, they're expensive nature were beginning to fall out of favor in 1970, and only one out of every 64 Impalas made was a droptop.
Under the hood is the numbers-matching 350 cubic-inch V8. While it retains the stock look of originality that some people love, it also has the signs of proper maintenance, right down to belts, wires, and hoses. The three-speed automatic transmission shifts smooth, and the big Impala has the right cushy ride. Plus, power steering, power brakes w/discs up, and modern Hankook tires are all part of this easy driving package.
We know this one was made for fun cruising, that's why there are even four different horn tones you can choose on demand! It all makes for a great classic with the size and style you want. Call today!!!
