This 1970 Chevrolet Impala strikes the right balance between a truly cool cruiser and an incognito restomod. After all, you have a full green package inside and out for that ideal 1970s style. And there are true vintage details, like the button-top upholstery and shining chrome bumpers that love to hug the form. But when the sunshine hits the finish, it has a radiant glow that only comes from a modern metallic application with plenty of glossy clearcoat. It gets you searching for other upgrades. It takes a keen eye to spot additions like the upgraded suspension, four-wheel disc brakes, and cold-blowing R134a A/C. But one upgrade that is hard to hide and fun to display is the power-built crate V8 under the hood. So dig a little deeper and take a look at this full package that gives you classic style with plenty of modern driving substance.
