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.

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!

Steve - you are correct. Been out here in Apache Junction for years. I forgot that it was a Canadian car too. He showed me the Canadian report. How did you hear of this car? I am embarrassed to say that I have no close ups of the engine bay - got distracted (doesn't take much) I'll be staying in touch with the owner. He is less than 10 miles from my home. Anyway, here she is:





Original and 2nd owners were tracked down by current owner and the dealer invoice, original early photos, and Utica time slips are coming his way....

Holy cow, I didn't realize it was that nice of a car. What a great find! I heard about the car from my buddy Jon Krogh, who may have been in touch with the current owner when he first picked it up, not sure. Great pictures! I hope the thing will be kept original. Most Canadian cars are nowhere near THAT clean lol

There are some ruff areas wrt the paint not shown in photos. Everything on car works including the clock! For the time being the owner plans to keep the car original. A real sweetheart of a car!!

I really like the 67/68 Impala SS cars. I have a 67' black on black California smog SS 327 glide car with red lines and mag wheel covers. Not the 427, but a great looking and driving car..BKH
