Chevy’s largest cars were now being referred to as “standard or full-size” cars for the first time as 1960 marked the introduction of the compact Corvair to the Chevrolet lineup. Impala returned to its trademark triple taillamps like those first introduced in 1958. Chevy began emphasizing “jet smoothness” as evidenced in the aircraft-inspired side trim with vapor trail used on the Impalas.

This 1960 Chevrolet Impala is powered by a 283 cubic inch V-8 engine that is connected to a desirable three-speed manual transmission. This convertible is fitted with a power top, AM radio and power steering. The Impala has benefited from an older restoration that still shows well inside and out.

This Impala convertible has been fitted with many new emblems and moldings; along with new Cooper whitewall tires.
