Chevrolet Impala - 3rd Gen (1961 to 1964)

The third generation of Chevrolet Impala debuted for the 1961 model year. This updated generation received more angular styling, as well as a range of mechanical improvements. Convertible, sedan, hardtop, and station wagon body styles were offered, as well as a range of optional V8 engines alongside the standard 3.8L inline six. One of the more notable variants was the 1963 Sport Coupe, which was offered with an optional 7.0L (427 cu in) V8 unit intended for competitive use. Production of the third generation lasted until 1964, when the Fourth Generation Chevrolet Impala was introduced.
