The Ageless 1958 Chevrolet Impala

By Mark Weisseg

One word comes to mind when I see one of these beauties in person. Wow.
Wow, because Chevy had a big hit on there hands with the ’57 Chevy only to turn the whole thing upside down and do this. Don’t get me wrong I love this car too. Especially a convertible. Those big seats, the luxury liner of a ride, plenty of power and I am always a sucker for dual antennas on the back.

This is one of the finest cars for a summers evening cruise I can conjure up. Just picture yourself and say three others floating down the road in this big car. Everyone who sees you is going to stare and point. The car does all the talking.
It is not built to set a land speed record or make g force numbers that will spin your head, but what it will do is take you back to a much less complicated life in our country.
We had problems and issues back in the late 50’s as well as we do today but somehow in comparison the issues don’t seem quite as bad.
Maybe mind over matter but I can hear this engine idling in my driveway with a low purring noise just begging me to get in and put that slushy transmission into Drive and slowly pull away from the house. The colors are deep blue which reminds us all of the ocean or of a deep blue sky. Either way our troubles are few and our pleasures are many in this automobile. It’s what I distaste so much about the modern cars of our era. Most sound whiny. I want my car either to sound like a rocket ship at blast off or a soulful deep mellow sound of a strong V8. What about you?
