The 1962 Chevrolet Impala Convertible LS1 Custom Restomod – Kandy Apple Red Edition is a professionally built classic Chevy that combines iconic 1960s styling with modern performance, comfort, and reliability. This Impala has undergone a complete frame-off restoration, with only 112 miles driven since the rebuild, making it a true custom masterpiece.
Every detail of this build has been carefully upgraded, including replacement of every hose, wire, nut, and bolt. The exterior features a stunning House of Kolor Kandy Apple Red (KBC11) finish over a black basecoat, complemented by a completely shaved and smoothed firewall, engine bay, and trunk for a clean custom appearance.
Under the hood sits an all-aluminum LS1 engine with rebuilt heads, paired with a rebuilt 4L60E automatic transmission for smooth and dependable performance. The engine bay features March Performance pulleys, retro Holley valve covers, ceramic-coated headers, an aluminum dual electric fan radiator, and a relocated Optima Red Top battery, creating a clean and powerful setup.
The suspension and braking systems have been upgraded for modern driving confidence. This Impala features AccuAir Endo CVT air ride management, Ridetech suspension components, Wilwood disc brakes on all four corners, and a new 605 power steering box. The chassis has been fully sandblasted and powder-coated, while the underside received rubberized undercoating for long-term protection.
Inside, the cabin has been completely restored by Ciadella Interiors, featuring a premium power bench seat with heated front seat elements, custom Dakota Digital HDX gauges, an Ididit tilt steering column, and a Retrosound Bluetooth audio system with JL Audio speakers and hidden amplifier.
Modern convenience features include power door locks, keyless entry, alarm system, remote start, LED headlights and taillights, updated wiring harness, OBD2 connection, and hidden brake components for a clean interior appearance.
The convertible top system has also been fully refreshed, featuring the original power top setup with a brand-new black Stayfast cloth convertible top and glass rear window. All glass has been replaced, and the stainless trim has been professionally polished and straightened.
