The 1965 Impala is the first model in the United States that managed to sell over 1 million units in just a single year, essentially giving birth to what later became a very successful fourth generation.
The 1966 successor continued to sell like hotcakes, with the convertible version this time reaching an important milestone, as it officially became the second best-selling model with this body style in the United States. Chevrolet therefore sold over 38,000 Impala convertible units in just a single year.
The one we have here isn’t a convertible, but on the other hand, it’s a 1966 model that promises a mix you can hardly find these days.
It’s an all-original, still working, with little rust and a matching numbers V8 with super-low mileage Impala, all without the car even going through a restoration. The Craigslist seller says this Impala was found in a barn, but on the other hand, no further specifics have been shared, so we don’t know where it’s been stored and for how long.
The engine under the hood is a 396 V8 that still runs, and the car also stops and shifts correctly. This Impala was born as a rather high-optioned model, so it comes with air conditioning, power brakes, and power steering.
At the first glance, the rust shouldn’t be a problem, though it’s still there and should be one of the first things to be fixed if the new owner is interested in a full restoration to factory specifications. The odometer indicates just a little over 21,000 miles (33,800 km), and the owner says they are all original
At the end of the day, an all-original, unrestored, complete, low-mileage Impala sounds a little bit too good to be true, so make sure you inspect everything in person before making the purchase.
Parked in Los Angeles, the car can be yours for just $15,900, though the seller says other offers might be accepted as well.
