1964 Chevrolet Impala SS

This 1964 Chevrolet Impala SS is a real deal Super Sport that is absolutely loaded with all of the best options! The 1964 Chevrolet Impala SS is one of the most iconic American classic cars ever built, and its story begins in 1958, when the Chevy Impala first appeared as nothing more than a premium option package on the top-tier Bel Air. In 1959, Chevrolet spun the Impala off as its own model, and it would sit atop the Chevrolet lineup for years to come. Through the late 1950s and early 1960s, the Impala was reworked nearly every year, until Chevrolet settled on a boxier, more modern shape with all-new sheet metal for 1962. Another key milestone came with the Super Sport (SS) package. The 1961 Impala SS was a dealer-installed option group featuring special exterior emblems, spinner-style wheel covers, a padded instrument cluster, power brakes and power steering, plus performance upgrades such as heavy-duty suspension and brakes and a 7,000 RPM tachometer. For 1964, the Impala SS became a distinct model, offered exclusively as a 2-door hardtop or convertible, and it was widely regarded as the plushest, sportiest, nicest Chevrolet money could buy, with V8 power available up to the legendary 409. Exterior highlights of the 1964 Chevy Impala SS include special side and decklid trim and the Impala's famous triple taillights. The 1964 model year also closed out the Impala's 1961-64 generation before the 1965 redesign. Inside, the '64 Impala SS was equally sporty and plush, with bucket seats in upgraded leather-grained vinyl, a locking center console, and SS badging on the console and door panels. That blend of full-size comfort, sporty trim, and V8 muscle made the Impala SS a defining Chevrolet of the early-1960s American muscle car era. The 1964 Impala is also one of the most celebrated cars in American pop culture. A favorite of hot-rodders in the late 1960s and 1970s, it became the heart of modern lowrider culture, and countless hip hop songs, including tracks by Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre about "rollin' in their 6-4s," celebrate the '64 Impala as the quintessential lowrider. Today, the classic 1964 Chevrolet Impala SS remains a prized collector car and a favorite of lowrider builders and classic Chevy enthusiasts alike for its stylish looks and robust construction. This particular Impala comes to us from a collector who stewarded the car for nearly 10 years after acquiring it from a prominent Texas collector.

The 327 Small Block Chevy is backed by a Powerglide Automatic Transmission that makes this 1964 Chevrolet Impala an easy car for anybody to take for a spin around the block.
