1963 brought the Impala Super Sport to the front page of newspapers thanks to another important achievement in Chevy's yard.
The GM brand produced the 50 millionth vehicle, and the Impala Super Sport was chosen to be the milestone car rolling off the assembly lines in front of journalists and reporters trying to take a photo of New York Governor Nelson Rockefeller driving it.
Chevrolet operated subtle styling refinements on the 1963 Impala, with the company focusing more on engine choices. The V8 lineup included the famous 283, the 32 small block with multiple power outputs, and the Turbo-Fire 409 with three configurations.
The top was the 425-horsepower unit, which served as just the right choice for any Impala Super Sport.
The 1963 Impala in these photos is an SS but is still a head-turning machine thanks to its gorgeous all-around condition.
eBay seller willowcat59 says the car is "original," though after reading all the tidbits, it's certainly more accurate to say that its originality is 99.99% at best. The vehicle has already received a repaint, and based on the provided images, it looks like a professional job that perfectly reproduces the original blue finish. You should still see the car in person before committing to a purchase, especially as the photos shared on eBay might not reveal all spots requiring attention.
The car has no rust, and it's unclear if the Impala has already received a restoration. A car in such a great shape is rare without prior metal work, so put the car on a lift and closely inspect the undercarriage for signs of previous fixes.
The interior is also original, and the seller claims that everything you see in the cabin is original, except for the carpet.
The Impala is ready for the road, and the owner says they just took the car on a 250-mile trip and arrived at the destination without any problems. It means you can buy the car and hop behind the wheel, though based on its condition, you'll still want to keep it away from rain, snow, and heavy sunlight. If it's indeed a 99.99% original Impala (I can't stress enough how important it is to check these claims), its place should be in a dry garage.
The odometer indicates 42,500 miles (68,400 km), which is believed to be the original mileage.
The bidding started a few days ago, with the top offer reaching $1,000 as I was working on this story. However, the owner also configured a reserve, and it's still in place at the time of press. The digital fight will end in approximately nine days, so you still have enough time to see the car in person and consider your significant other that a 1963 Impala is worth the money. The vehicle is parked in Syracuse, New York.
