Del Ray was the bottom-line, plain Jane, el cheapo model. Bel Air was a step up - mid-range model. Impala was the top of the line. Another note - Impalas had six taillights (3 each side) while the Bel Air had four (2 each side) + separate, optional-at-extra-cost backup . . .

Interiors were likewise upgraded for Bel Air and even more for Impala.
