year when General Motors celebrated its 50 anniversary 1958, its Chevrolet division introduced its range a name that would remain bound to the mark since, Impala. Lower, wider and longer than any previous Chevrolet, Bel Air, 1958 was a completely new car and its most luxurious and equipped was named after the graceful antelope that runs through the African bush by leaps and bounds, which was first used GM once a prototype exhibited at the 1956 Motorama. It was built on the new platform security X-Type.
Designed by the formula 'more is better' (more is better), the Bel Air Impala was a car of 58 baroque enough to make clear the most ostentatious Buick. Between stylistic elements were the most striking new headlights, dual front and triple back. On the back is starting to notice a slightly pronounced fins a year later would be much more pronounced. Only offered in two body combinations, coupe and cabriolet.
were two mechanical options available in the Bel Air 1958, a six-cylinder 3.9-liter (238 ci) and 145 hp and the V8 Super Turbo-Thrust 5.7 liter (347 ci) and 315 cv. Both options were rigged to an automatic gearbox, four-speed Power Glide. Some consider the Bel Air Impala V8 1958 as the first Muscle Car history. Similarly, most moviegoers will remember the white Impala Bel Air movie 'American Graffiti' which causes more of a headache for the poor Richard Dreyfuss.
Led by Neo-American Excellence and a special limited edition of 300 copies comes this beautiful Bel Air Impala's 58 in a striking color Coral Cay. It is a striking miniature, with lots of chrome made in photogravure and a mold material well built. It also highlights the contrast that makes the inside with the body, especially the seats tricolor. Neo offers this miniature in two color combinations that present and one in white and blue, which does not correspond to a color offered in the catalog and looks more like a custom version.
