The car was finished from the factory in Daytona Blue (WW) and was reportedly repainted under prior ownership. Daytona Blue was one of the most desirable and iconic colors for 1964. Exterior features include chrome bumpers and trim, metal side moldings, quad headlights, and "409" fender badging as well as "SS" badging.
The blue color scheme is carried throughout the interior, including the front bucket seats, rear bench, carpeting, door panels, and dashboard. Additional features include a center console with engine-turned trim, AM/FM radio, and an engine-turned dashboard panel. The two-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of a horizontal-sweep 120-mpg speedometer along with an optional 6k-rpm tachometer mounted to the steering column, a fuel level gauge, and an analog clock. The five-digit odometer shows 71K miles, total mileage is unknown.
At its heart is a highly desirable 409 QB-code "X" block and heads, signifying Chevrolet's top-tier 425 horsepower dual-quad configuration for 1964 passenger cars. The QB suffix identifies the 425 HP dual-quad engine - the ultimate factory 409 offering - while the "X" mark is associated with high-performance W-series castings that are especially sought after in authentic 1964 Impala SS restorations. Based on pictures and documentation from previous ownership, it is believed this car came from the factory as a true 409 equipped with a Muncie 4-speed - a combination that defines the era and dramatically elevates collector desirability.
The car has undergone an extensive frame-off restoration, and the 409 has been professionally rebuilt, ensuring performance that matches its visual presence. Call Classic Car Addict today at 480-256-1459.
