1968 Chevrolet Impala SS427 Project

1968 Chevrolet Impala SS427 Convertible.  Original 396 Big Block Car with added SS427 options. Comes with original 396 Fender badges.  Bench seat and column shifter with Turbo 400 automatic in good condition.  Runs great. driven regularly since 2010.  Power top works great. Top frame is straight. goes up and down with no problems and latches with no problems.  Top is decent but aging.  No major rust. but has a few little spots typical of driven convertibles from this era.  Engine is 454 installed by dealer in the 80s.  I bought it in late 2010.  According to records. miles are original but that is unverified beyond repair receipts dating back to engine installation.  Manual windows.  Power steering.  I added four wheel disc brakes with a kit from Matt's Classic Bow Ties. New rear axle installed when brakes were done. differential was inspected and serviced.   Stops like a new Honda Accord. Discs are slotted and vented. 12" front and 11" rear.   Has new exhaust with new turbo mufflers.  New gas tank.  Front suspension rebuilt to factory specs- not lowered.  New shocks and springs all around.  Has factory intake manifold with custom block off plate.  Installed Original-style Corvette 427 Air Cleaner with flame arrestor and vacuum connection.  Comes with factory metal spacer for carburetor from 80's 454 Chevy Truck. Changed oil last fall. using Mobil One Synthetic and K&N Oil Filter.  NOS SS Tail Lights. NOS 427 fender badges.  New Plugs included.  Original Chevrolet Super Sport Gauge package included. I was waiting for mileage to get closer before installing it.  Also comes with Original Chevrolet Super Sport glove box badge.  Body panels are solid.  Doors are aligned-they open and close almost like new.  Top does not leak in the rain.  Floors and trunk are solid. drain plugs removed to prevent major rust.  Original color.  Upholstery is good with no major tears.  Carpet is decent. no major holes. Still has original top boot and well liner in decent shape.  Chrome around top well has a few dings.  Bumpers and Chrome trim are good but not re-chromed yet.  Glass is good and original.  Glass window in convertible top is also good.  Lights and signals all work.  Passenger side front marker light needs bulb.  Original wiring is good from the firewall back.  Has large aluminum radiator and runs cool.  Tires decent but six years old.  One spare rally wheel with dented trim ring included.  GREAT project car. fun daily driver already.  Needs full restoration to be perfect but it's all there.  Buyer pays all shipping.  Drive anywhere if you're smart about it- it's almost fifty years old and unrestored.    


  Runs smooth and quiet. camera microphone is very sensitive and picks up every little noise.
