Impala SS427 Convertible - #s
matching! Runs. Documented: This car needs some loving!
I have had it for many years and
do not have any plan to restore it so its needs a new home. It deserves to be restored because it’s a genuine
original SS427 with a running original numbers matching engine and pedigree
documentation. Although the frame is pretty solid, the body is VERY rusty. I have this for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction at anytime. Low reserve at less than value of parts. History and Data: Purchased May 25 1968 at Hunter Weidner Chevrolet Inc in
Anderson Indiana. Original purchase price was $4898.02. Spent early days in Anderson,
followed by Colorado, Tennessee, then Texas and now is located on Vancouver
Island in BC Canada. VIN: 164678F186051 Cowl Tag: Build Date:
= 03B (3rd week March),

EE 0718 Intake casting date: B248 This is a factory original SS427, with original double fuel lines, 8
track, PS, PB, tach and gauges with correct 5500 rpm redline, tilt steering,
bumper guards, fender lamps, front seat outer passenger’s shoulder belts. Special Note: If you are wondering why the car has a bench seat - do some research. This is a legitimate and original bench seat car
with SS427. This means the car was
ordered new with the SS427 option (RPO Z24), but the Super Sport option, (RPO Z03) was NOT ordered. The SS427 option alone did not include
buckets. The Good: Numbers matching original 385hp
427 engine with TH400. Rare and desirable factory colour:
Tripoli Turquoise with parchment (white) interior. Near new convertible top, goes up
and down. Start, runs, moves and stops. Tach and oil pressure work, all windows go up
and down Pedigree documentation: original
protecto-plate, 1968 film strip showing this car with original owner. Includes rare SS427 hood, louvers,
dash emblem, fender emblems. Frame appears solid except may be some bad areas
near rear springs. The Bad: Car needs complete restoration! Very rusty. Driver’s front spring is busted. Someone tried to put AC in this car and installed the underhood portion
(original heater system is in trunk). Terms of Auction

Call me at at (Two50) 709-five955 On May-19-14 at 11:16:36 PDT, seller added the following information: Please note that the release of the original filmstrip is subject to the approval of the original owner. This filmstrip shows the happy new owner of the SS427 in late summer 1968 driving around in his home town in Indiana. The film also has personal footage and as such I feel it is respectful to ensure he approves that this film can go to the next owner. This is not such a bad thing as the purchaser will get a chance to talk to the original owner of this car. Apparently, the gentleman was having his Corvair serviced and while waiting he wandered around the dealership and found this SS427 on the show room floor and fell in love with the car. On May-20-14 at 13:20:40 PDT, seller added the following information: Included with car is a complete original clean and solid floor pan that was cut out of another Impala. |

2015 Chevrolet SS Review [w/video]
Mon, Jul 27 2015The Chevrolet SS is one of the best cars no one's buying. It's a Bowtie-badged version of the Australian Holden Commodore with a 6.2-liter LS3 V8 under the hood. It's got a six-speed manual transmission, General Motors' sophisticated Magnetic Ride Control suspension, and rear-wheel drive. It's a fullsize sedan that comes with every possible amenity you could want. And it's less than $50,000. Chevrolet sold 2,479 SS sedans in 2014. That means it was outsold by every other vehicle the automaker offers, even the police fleet-only Caprice. (I'm only talking about cars that were on sale for the full 2014 calendar year, of course.) The aforementioned manual transmission and MRC suspension were added for 2015, but it's not clear if that's helping. The SS is down 7.7 percent through June of this year, compared to 2014's numbers. But hey, at least it's finally outselling the Caprice. What a damn shame. Granted, GM only planned to sell a few thousand of these each year, but as enthusiasts, this a car we should be gobbling up. It's the closest we'll get to a four-door Corvette, and with the 2015 model year updates, that statement is more true than ever. People often mistook the SS for a Malibu. "Is that a rental car?" Yikes. Aside from the manual gearbox and magnetorheological suspension, the SS is largely unchanged through its year and a half of sales. But that's no bad thing – we were thoroughly impressed with the SS when we first tested it at the end of 2013. Outside, the SS looks the same, which is a bummer. It is not an attractive car, and the chrome brightwork on the side vents and wheels doesn't help. That said, the sedate styling puts it under the radar – more so than competitors like a Dodge Charger 392, anyway. But maybe it's too under the radar. Even in the new, "Some Like It Hot Red" color (yes, really), photographer Drew Phillips reports that people often mistook the SS for a Malibu. "Is that a rental car?" Yikes. Exterior styling is our only gripe with the SS. Moving inside, there's a lot to like. This is easily one of Chevy's nicest, well thought-out interiors (thanks, Holden), with premium materials and tons of equipment. The Chevy MyLink infotainment system carries over, and now features 4G LTE and wifi connectivity. The touchscreen is a bit slow to respond, but otherwise, it's bright, well organized, and packed with functionality. This is easily one of Chevy's nicest, well thought-out interiors.
