Together, they ensure proper fitment, function, and factory-correct appearance for your landmark 1958 Impala convertible.

Complete Interior Restoration Solution

This set addresses three crucial areas of your 1958 Chevy Impala convertible interior that are essential for both daily function and show-quality authenticity. Each component plays a vital role in maintaining the integrity and original appearance of your classic’s interior cabin space.

What’s Included in Your Restoration Set

Inner Windshield Trim

The 1958 Impala convertible inner windshield trim provides the finished appearance where the windshield meets the headliner. This often-missing component completes the factory-correct interior look and helps secure the headliner properly along the windshield frame.

Visor Mounting Brackets

These visor brackets are specifically designed for the 1958 Impala convertible’s unique windshield frame. They provide secure mounting points for your sun visors while maintaining the proper clearance and function specific to convertible models.

Convertible Top Striker Plate

The top striker plate is the critical mounting point on the windshield frame that secures the convertible top when raised. This component ensures a tight, weatherproof seal and proper alignment of the top mechanism – essential for preventing leaks and wind noise.

Key Restoration Benefits

• Factory-Correct Fitment: Every component engineered to 1958 Impala convertible specifications
• Complete Interior Finish: Eliminates missing or incorrect parts that compromise authenticity
• Proper Function: Ensures visors operate correctly and convertible top seals tightly
• Time & Cost Savings: Source three hard-to-find components in one purchase
• Show-Quality Authenticity: Maintains the precise details that serious judges and collectors expect

1958 Chevrolet Impala Convertible Specific Design

These components are unique to the 1958 Chevy Impala convertible and will not fit hardtop or sedan models. The first-generation Impala convertibles required specific interior trim and mounting solutions that differed from other body styles, making these components essential for correct restoration.

Why This Interior Set Matters

Many restorers focus on exterior components while overlooking these critical interior pieces. Without correct inner windshield trim, visor brackets, and striker plate, your Impala convertible will have visible gaps, improper function, and compromised weather sealing – all of which detract from both value and enjoyment.
