here is the sticker. as you well know flashes and glass dont mix well together. on the shield (the part that is left)the state name wraps around the top (which is obviously gone) and comes down the right hand side where all that is legible is "na". thank goodness the bumper sticker has "Cherry Point, N.C." which let us know the "ia" was the last 2 letters of Carolina. i'll get the bumper sticker pic on here, first we have to unwrap it cause dad had it sold and headed out of state via ebay.

Wes,
Not sure I understand this statement: "i'll get the bumper sticker pic on here, first we have to unwrap it cause dad had it sold and headed out of state via ebay." Do you have this car or have you sold it?

You said in your first post that it was a 69 SS427 Impala convertible but I see it has drum brakes. Do you have any documentation on the car? Not calling it fake, the reason I am asking is I purchased a 335 hp 427 out of a '69 SS427 Custom Coupe in the early 80's. Not only was it a 335 hp, but it too had drum brakes though both were said to have not been available with the Z24 option. Somewhere I have the POP for the car that I got the engine out of and it would just be nice to know that maybe the literature is wrong and drum brakes could be had as well as the 335 hp. My '69 SS427 convert has the 390 hp and discs so just asking.

i guess some clarification is in order.
1. the rear bumper was sold on ebay but hasnt been shipped yet. i will unrap it and snap a photo of the bumper sticker. 2. Rick, the drums your seeing are from the 70 that is the parts car. notice that the frame is out from under the 70. the 69 has the front disc's. the 69's frame has been blasted and is sitting in my dads basement getting everything put back on. if you look under the photo i had labeled it "70 parts car and frame". should of phrased it frame for 70 parts car. hope this clears things up!
