Re: School me on SS427s!
[ QUOTE ]
John was it a 67 with an L-72 and do you have anything documenting the build ? Iam sure you have had that question asked of you alot when you talk about that car LOL .. Paul [/ QUOTE ] Yes, it was a '67 L-72. Nope, have no paper on the car - it was 42 years (and ten transfers/homes) ago; all I have is the special order tag. It was that pretty champagne color inside and out, with redlines. If it stayed in Flint after I sold it, it's probably iron oxide dust by now.

Re: School me on SS427s!
Not a 67 but it is a 427 car and we have always called it a " SS427 Sport Coupe" . Its been sitting in a shed for years now but was our "community car" when we were kids and the vehicle of choice on Holloween.

For you big car fans, (ssl78396) sent me this link of big car photos with many racing shots as well. This group contains 61-70 with many SS427 and 427 Biscaynes, Impalas, etc. Pretty cool.
