Another beautiful Basil Classic... a 1963 Chevy Impala SS with only 346 miles has been handpicked and meets Joe Basil's standards of excellence and tradition of fine automobiles since 1951. This vehicle is truly one of a kind and one of the cleanest, best-maintained Impalas you will find! Buy with confidence!!
Offered here is a beautiful and well-preserved 1963 Chevrolet Impala Super Sport, finished in its original Palomar Red and powered by a potent QB-code 409 V8, dated 1964, and topped with dual four-barrel carburetors — an unmistakable symbol of early '60s full-size muscle. This engine configuration features the correct solid lifter cam and twin-carb setup that made the 409 famous, delivering big-block torque with a distinctive high-performance feel. The car was repainted in its original Palomar Red some years ago and still presents very well, with a deep shine and clean lines. Exterior styling cues like the twin rear antennas, proper Super Sport badging, and polished trim give this Impala an unmistakable presence on the road or at a show. Chrome and brightwork are in good condition throughout, contributing to the car's classic curb appeal. Backing the 409 is a Muncie 4-speed manual transmission, recently rebuilt for smooth and reliable shifting. The dual carburetors have also been professionally rebuilt, and a new clutch has been installed. The engine has been freshened with new lifters and refinished heads, ensuring strong running conditions and excellent drivability. To improve safety and control, the car has been upgraded with a front disc brake conversion, along with a new power brake booster, power brakes, and power steering, making it far more enjoyable in modern traffic while retaining its vintage charm. Inside, the car retains its original interior, including the factory seats, door panels, headliner, and dash — all in well-kept condition. Only the carpet has been replaced. The original odometer stopped working at 77,000 miles, and a new replacement odometer was installed, which now shows approximately 300 miles since installation. The car's overall condition reflects careful use and maintenance over the years. This 1963 Impala SS is a rare opportunity to own a true big-block, 4-speed full-size performance car with factory styling and tasteful upgrades. With its correct dual-quad 409 V8, original SS trim, and recent mechanical restorations, this car is equally at home on the road, at local shows, or in a serious collection—a genuine piece of early muscle car history — turn-key, influential, and unmistakably iconic.
Just look and you can tell that this vehicle was very well cared for by its owners and kept in show condition! When you drive this vehicle, it has the feel that you're looking for...runs and drives just like new! This is a no excuse vehicle. This car will make a fine collector's piece for you and your family for years to come! Instead of looking at your Dream car, drive it. We take trades and have financing available.
