One-Family-Owned, 283-Powered 1960 Chevrolet Biscayne 2-Door Sedan

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE 

Introduced for the 1958 model year, the Biscayne served as Chevrolet's entry-level full-size offering, providing practical transportation with the same full-size dimensions and styling as its more expensive counterparts. By 1960, the Biscayne featured a less dramatic version of Chevrolet's dramatic 'batwing' rear fins alongside dual round taillights. Available with a range of economical six-cylinder and powerful V8 powerplants, it became a popular choice for budget-conscious families and customizers alike. 

This 1960 Chevrolet Biscayne is said to be a one-family-owned example powered by a 283ci V8 paired with a two-speed automatic transmission. Refinished by the seller's father in beige over black and gray vinyl upholstery, the car features hand-painted Impala-themed graphics on the front fenders, a custom animal-hide-style headliner, and aftermarket wheels.

This one-family-owned 1960 Chevrolet Biscayne is now offered at no reserve with a clean New Jersey title in the seller’s name.

Ownership History 

From the seller: "I acquired this Chevrolet from my father in 2015 and have been its owner since. My father purchased the car new, and it has remained in our family throughout its life. It runs well and has never been involved in an accident. My father, who worked as an automobile painter, repainted the car and hand-painted the Impala graphics on the front quarter panels. This is a classic ride that deserves a good home."
