The ONLY rear ends that will fit your car are 3rd and 4th gen F body rear ends. There are aftermarket 12 bolt and 9 inch Ford rear ends that will fit if you can afford them. NOTHING else will fit.

The early 80's Impala may have a 7.5" 10 bolt. Although the entire diff itself won't fit, you could pull the gears and posi out and put it into your diff. That is providing the Impala is a 7.5" 10 bolt.
