1959 Chevrolet Impala
The Story
The 1959 Impala is an essential figure in automotive history. Designed by Bill Mitchell, it remains one of America's most dramatic and distinctive automotive designs. With the introduction of this car, it was clear that the styling presented throughout most of the 1950s was at an end. In 1959, the Impala took over as Chevrolet's premium series, replacing the Bel Airs.
The 1959 Impala is particularly noteworthy for the way it transcends its era and genre. All in all, the 1959 Impala stands out as the most unashamed proponent of the ‘bigger and wider styling school’ as the automotive industry entered the 1960s.
This car is a rare gem to find. With its fame and rarity, the 1959 Impala is truly a success.
