67 Impala SS427
 
I am considering a 67 SS427 Impala. This car is a California produced car with NO docs. I am not familiar with these cars. Can anyone help me with how to validate if this car is a real SS427? In advance, thanks.
Tim

I saw and met with the new owner of an original paint, unrestored red/red bucket seat console, highly documented 60K mile '67 SS427 4 speed Impala this weekend and took some photos. Will post tonight. Am no expert, but Peculiarities that set it apart from other Impalas: It has the SS427 emblems on the front fenders and the one yr only SS427 hood. Wonderful time capsule. No ps/ no pb!

Wonder why it was ordered that way? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/drool.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gif

No expert but maybe someone else can chime in

I think the 427 had a 4D on the trim tag.

Be cautious as not all the plants used that code on the cowl tag, California being one of them. If it is present, it does represent the Z24 package however. If it is not there is does not necessarily mean it is not an SS427.

Car has a build sheet (found by current owner) and dealer invoice (other docs too - can't remember). Will ask about the TT, altho, I took very hi res photos and under hood shot may reveal TT info.

Tim,
I know the car you are talking about and I am not sure whether it is the real deal. It has a restamped block, and I believe the seller said it was a South Gate CA car, so therefore it would not have 4D on the tag. So you would have to look for the tag to say L36 on it to mean it's a real Z24 car, and I'm unsure whether it does or not.

Sam,
I think I heard about that car somewhere. It was purchased via craigslist and came with a bunch of NOS parts if I recall. I think it was a Canadian car. Looking forward to seeing the pics!
