Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Louisville is proud to present this 1961 Chevrolet Impala. 1961 saw the first year of the third generation for the successful Impala. The new design was trimmer and boxier than its predecessor. While there were a few different trims for 1961 what we have here is the sport coupe which offered a thin rear roof pillar and an oversized rear window. In time this is what enthusiasts would come to call the bubbletop. Highly sought after by collectors for their design and value, these specific Impalas are easily identified and turn heads everywhere! This fine example upon approach you are dazzled with light glinting off the chrome and fresh Black paint. The stance of this car is right because of the airbags on all four corners. This car can go from low rider to hot rod is about 10 seconds flat. The giant chrome rims with the low profile tires really set the car off. No matter the angle, front to back you can easily see the time and care that went into the build. Under the hood is a massive 502 CI V8 mated to a 3-speed automatic transmission. This car sounds meaner than anything on the road and will surely scare of the pretenders just by revving her up at the line. The exterior paint is gorgeous and other than a little wax and elbow grease needs nothing. The black leather interior looks like new and is as comfortable as it gets. Lift the console and underneath is the switches for the airbags. This restomodded bubbletop is as nice as they come and you'll have to see it to believe it. Options on this 1961 Chevrolet Impala include: AC, AM/FM/CD, Leather, Airbags, Power Brakes, Power Steering and Aftermarket Wheels w/ Radial Tires.

About Chevrolet
Chevrolet aka Chevy, founded in 1911 by Louis Chevrolet and William C. Durant is the best selling and biggest brand by General Motors -mainly due to low pricing. No wonder Chevy the "working man's car" has become such an iconic part of Americana in films and pop-culture.
When talking about Chevy one must not ignore Chevrolet small-block V8 the world's most produced engine that has been in production since 1955 and still going strong.
Surprisingly, "America's only sports car" Corvette was introduced under Chevrolet brand rather than its own. To us the most memorable Corvette has to be The second generation (C2) Corvette, Sting Ray.
To compete with VW Beatle Chevrolet introduced Corvair a compact automobile built in 1960–1969 It was the only American designed, mass-produced passenger car to feature a rear-mounted air-cooled engine. Corvair handling was deemed notoriously bad mainly due to Ralph Nader's Unsafe at Any Speed. Although, any handling issues were soon solved the reputation did stick.
With Pony / Muscle car mania taking over the Americans, following the introduction of Ford Mustang, Chevrolet came up with one of its most famous models Camaro. During the first year alone they managed to sell 220,906 Camaros.
