Agree with the above. Color combination sure enhances the appeal and value in my opinion. NICE CAR

I may have mis spoke..I know 67 SS427 is impossible to find but I was thinking of a 68...very unusual domed looking hood which is hard to find too....I am not sure what a 69 SS 427 hood looks like now that I think about it...

The 69 ss 427 impala convertibles are definetly rare and desirable, but I have noticed on E-bay and other places that the 69's just aren't bringing the same money as the 67's or some 68's. My favorite SS 427 is the 67. It's a beautiful car and that hood OH man. There are 67 SS427 hoods around still. Most that are left need some rust repair but still bring some good money. For a decent 67 hood with the molding(insert) they are around $3000.+. If you can find one for cheaper you got a good deal. Definetly a desireable car 69hurstsc.

Well I have one (white on red on white) and love it! You can still get them for a reasonable price and it is the last of the great legendary Impalas. I believe they will eventually increase in value but that is not why I bought it. A previous owner had installed the hidden headlight option on mine and it looks bad a$$.

I think they are very desireable (at least to me) as I have owned many over the years. I currently own a '68 SS427, just sold my '67 SS427 and will someday finish my '69 SS427 convert though they have not gone up in price enough to even cover the cost of the resto. There is a '69 SS427/427 convert that is owned locally here (red with black guts) but is in poor shape and needing a complete resto. I only know of three other documented 427/425 converts in the country yet they just don't seem to bring the money.

The 68-69 'Drop tops' with factory A/C that actually work are bringing very big $$.

Of course, R12 refrigerant will have to be converted to R134A because R12 is approaching $25/lb. when you can find it.
