One lucky man in Atlanta, Georgia, inherited a 1963 Chevy Impala.
Most people in his position would pop open the best bottle of wine they can find to celebrate, but this guy didn’t.
He genuinely never seemed to care about this car.
That means that the Chevy Impala is now looking for a new owner.

The story behind this Chevy Impala
A man in Atlanta, Georgia, inherited this 1963 Chevy Impala but has never really seen much love.
It was apparently bought new and then kept in the family for decades, but – as you can clearly see from the pictures – no one is looking after it now.
The engine under the hood is a 327 small-block V8, which was also used for a variety of Chevy models, but the seller said he’s not ‘sure if it runs.’
This wouldn’t necessarily be a deal breaker, partly because people this is exactly the sort of car people buy as a ‘project’, and also because there’s no shortage of parts for this model.
It might be worth it, too.
Chevy Impalas, once restored, tend to go for a lot of money.
About the Chevrolet Impala
A conversation about the most iconic Chevrolet cars would definitely include the Impala.
First launched in 1958, the Impala is one of the best-selling Chevy models of all time.
Chevy sold millions of Impalas across 10 generations.
Interestingly but unsurprisingly – when it comes to the Impala – rarity does not coincide with desirability.
Quite the opposite, in fact.
The most coveted Impalas are models from the 1950s and 1960s, even though Chevy was selling over a million units per year every year back then.
The interesting thing about the Impala is you can find examples that command tens of thousands of dollars in the market, and others that are given away for free.
And yet, this doesn’t seem to harm the car’s popularity in any way.
