Big rear meats and shaved handles usually mean one thing-this 1961 Chevrolet Impala Bubbletop Pro Street was built with purpose. Finished in Candy Apple Red Metallic with custom-painted silver stripes that trace where the factory brightwork once lived, it cuts a distinct profile. The doors are shaved, the side windows are deleted, and the front and rear glass is clean and clear. Rolling on 15-inch wheels, the setup is staggered and serious: skinny 165/80R15 tires up front and enormous .....
33/22.50/15LT Hoosiers tucked in the rear tubs.
Inside, it's business with style. A full roll bar in silver-gray stretches through the tubbed cabin, surrounding a set of two-tone gray vinyl bucket seats. The dash is body-matched and fitted with AutoMeter gauges. A Jeffco lightning floor shifter runs through a trimmed center console, and the Simpson racing harnesses are already in place. Trunk-mounted AM/FM/AUX stereo keeps the music alive when it's not running wide open. No back seat-just clean, sorted sheet metal and custom work front to back.
Power comes from a 632 cubic inch Merlin V8, fed by dual Holley 4500 4-barrel carburetors and topped with a tall air cleaner. It runs aluminum heads, a high-rise aluminum intake, and a serpentine belt setup. Stainless braided hoses and a dual-fan aluminum radiator keep temps in check. Exhaust exits through long-tube headers into FlowMaster mufflers. The Jeffco 4-speed manual sends power to a Ford 9" rear with 4.56 gears, held in place by a four-link with adjustable coilovers. Matching coilovers ride up front, and all four corners are equipped with disc brakes.
