There is no 3 horizontal dots to tap that I can see, only 3 vertical, but it just says report. I’d love to have this car, but it would be more than I could afford anyway, some amount in 6 digits for sure. The engine didn’t sound like the 427 435 hp though, that would’ve had a solid lifter cam. The 396 425 hp in the 1965 Impala SS was a sold lifter cam with a factory 7000 rpm tach in the instrument panel, showing a 6400 rpm shift point, but it was in a crappy location for any serious use. And btw, the 427 435 hp tri carb engine wasn’t the most powerful 427 offered, far from it. Although Chevrolet wanted everyone to think so, because they didn’t want it in the hands of irresponsible crazy ass baby boomer’s, but was meant for professional racing drivers, and it was considerably more money, along with no added amenities, and so it wouldn’t have made sense to buy it, when it was rated at the same horse power. It was the 427 L-88, that was deceivingly, rated at the same 435 hp, but at only 5300 rpm,. But in actuality it developed 550 + hp at 6400 rpm, and that was with restrictive exhaust manifold’s, that were immediately discarded and replaced with headers. And so with a little added tuning and tweaking, these were easily 600 + hp engines.

Lou, not only do you manage to find and document some of the most desirable cars ever built, but you also manage to get the most knowledgable and enthusiastic of car owners behind those classics. It's the stories these folks bring, that gives these cars a special meaning!

[@loucostabile]

Hi Michael, High praise :-) Glad you're enjoying the Channel with me, Lou

[@JeffKing310]

Very nice Chevy! I did not know about the Chevy SS angle- I always assumed that they were Impala SSs. Beautiful Chevrolet. Thanks Lou for bringing this classic to us and for everything that you do.

Same deal for the '66 Nova lineup , the '66 was Not a Nova SS , but a Chevy II SS , not a single Nova emblem to be found anywhere in or on the car . There were five Chevy II , three SS and three Super Sport emblems , but no Nova's .

My dad years ago pulled the same trick on my mother lol My dad couldn't get his high performance car she said we need a station wagon well back then you could order anything so he ordered a 68 Dodge Coronet wagon with a 440 automatic in it and it's still tore up the streets fond of memories now as for me about 15 years ago I purchased a 1969 Impala triple black which originally was a 396 car for the person before I got it scattered the motor so when I purchased it it had a 454 in it should have never sold their car what a nice cruiser it was and this one had power windows power brakes power steering air conditioning all the creature comforts

During the years that cars like this could be seen on the street, I only saw three full-size 427 Chevrolet cars. One of them was a Biscayne, and the other two were SS 427 Cars. They were pretty quick for what they were. They were nice looking too. This example is a beautiful car. The owner deserves to be proud.

My dad (our garage) had a 67 ss 396, it was good shape no rust, no dents, in the 60's 70's 80's we ran a garage and junk yard we pulled the engine and crushed it. Watching this is hard to do after what we did. We seen all muscle cars come and go just like other cars. 64.5 mustang nice we sold for $1250. 66 and 67ss chevells came and went just as easy. Why couldn't we see into the future just a little bit. Dad sold a 57chevy in good shape for $625. It's so sad we remember those things...

Always been a big fan of the Super Sports, Lou. Ron's done a great job, and I love it that he's kept it so long. My car in high school was a '65 Impala S. S. convertible - rally blue, white top, 327. Those were the days...

[@loucostabile]

Hi Dave, Happy to read you're a Big Fan of the SS's :-) Glad to read you had a cool car too, Lou

[@grand73am]

One detail that I didn't hear mentioned is that the front seat is a "Strato-back" bench seat. It's a bench seat with bucket seat backs, so it looks sporty, and with a wide center fold-down armrest for added comfort. So, that's why it has a column shifter. So, while most Super Sports came with buckets and console shift, the Strato-back bench was an option on any Super Sport and Caprice. I have a 67 Impala SS with the Strato-back bench, and it's my favorite seat for those cars, since it gives you a comfy place to rest your right arm, or you can flip up the armrest and sit next to your date if you want to.

Este es un espectacular Chevrolet Chevy SS427 Super Sport!

El interior no se queda para nada atrás, con su tapicería en negro y su precioso panel de instrumentos y volante en madera para deleite visual! Un vehículo muy cuidado para sus 30 años que tiene ya con su propietario. Ah, y como siempre, el clásico y relajante paseo final escuchando una muy interesante historia... ¡Saludos cordiales Lou!

[@billhershkowitz5759]

Hi Lou this is one of my favorite Classic Chevys :-) Of note; the 3 carburetor version of the 427 was L72, not L71. Even though this 425 horsepower monster motor wasn't available in 1967 for the.big Chevys, it WAS available in 1966, 1968 and 1969. Also, this car features the optional "Strato-Bench" front seat that was styled like the buckets. When you ordered the bench seat and the automatic, you got a column shifter and no center console...like with your featured car

Many people get the SS427 confused with an Impala Super Sport with a 427 bbc. That hood only came on the SS427, and they are very rare and expensive if one is found. Btw, unusual that it's a column shift car. Every one I've seen were floor consoles.

[@loucostabile]

Hi Cousin Strawberry, Thank you for viewing and sharing your knowledge. Lou

[@grand73am]

Because the seat is a bench, it has a column shift. That seat is a bench seat with a center fold-down armrest, and is called a "Strato-back bench" because the backs are the same as the Strato-bucket seat backs. So with the Strato backs, it makes this bench seat look sporty. And the center armrest adds comfort. While most Super Sports had buckets with a floor shift console, the Strato-back bench was optional in any Super Sport and Caprice. I had one in a 67 Impala SS fastback. It's my favorite seat for these cars.

[@strumminandwrenchin9162]

@@leeketner6488 uhm in the 67, if you noticed, the C pillar of the Impala 2 door, became thinned out and more angled compared to 65-66. One of the reasons I admired the Impala’s design cues is that it corresponds with the era of the United States. This is my stricly, MY OPINION, the 58-64 Impala designs signifies the last remaining era of a wholesome America. And when the 65 redesign came out, it’s new rebellious style is a far cry from the conservative 64. That design cue just says America is losing its wholesomeness unto a new generation of chaos, destruction etc..

Beautiful car and thanks for sharing. These were very rare to see along with the 68 and 69. Technically they are Impalas. Chevrolet sales literature indicated the SS427 equipment could be added to the Impala Super Sport model. It was devoid of the Impala name although the logo is on the rear speaker. In 1969 the SS427 also carried the Impala name. Either way fantastic car that was a delight to see featured.

The 1967 Chevrolet was a rather odd year, as well as the following year 1968. I never realized that Chevy made a Super Sport package that was not an actual Impala. I was surprised to see it equipped with a column gearshift rather than the floor console gate shifter. That 427 engine sounded healthy as well. I didn't know that they only made the Super Sport SS package from 1967-1969. Perhaps that's why I never saw a 1970 Chevy in a fastback style. Looked awesome in its Tuxedo Black paint job! Interesting car Lou!

[@davidthompson62]

Like, you, I never realized they made just and SS package. I'm not a huge fan of the 67 or 68 model years designs. 62 thru 66 were my favorite model years of the 60's. I had a 66 Impala Super Sport with a 396 and turbo hydramatic on the floor console. Wish I still had it and it was restored like this one

@@stevegordon5243 Hou must regret selling that! My 1st car was a 72 Chevelle that had a good engine but a lot of cancer. I had a blast for 3 years but ended up giving to a family member who junked it a few years later…..back the you could have bought a 1970 Challenger for $1,000!

[@stevegordon5243]

@@davidthompson62 For sure! I also had a 72 Chevelle that was in pretty decent shape. Ended up selling it to a buddy in 2001 that did a complete frame off restoration. Looks fantastic now!

It is an Impala. I have a 1967 Chevy Impala SS Convertible with a 396 motor. In the Owners manual for the 1967 Impala it lists the 427 as an option for the car. My Impala has the same Impala cover for the rear speaker and the Super Sport trim piece over the glove box. This is the highest level SS Impala you could get, but it is an Impala.

[@loucostabile]

Well Ryan, I can understand why you shared your comment because these are so rarely seen, however this one is not an Impala, and this one is not either. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZe8oIZjp76imas

Awesome! Probably my favorite year Impala! I've got a model identical to this!

[@loucostabile]

Hi Red 13, Happy to read this is the favorite year Impala for you :-) Glad to read you have a cool model of this one too. NICE! Lou

Genuinely a black beauty. Interesting that it has the flight bench seat with the bench seat cushion and the bucket seat backrests and no center console.

NICE ONE LOU! Merry Christmas and Happy New Years. Thank you for bringing us all Great Content all year round. 😊 I remember our Neighbors daughter came home with a brand new Purple 1967 Biscayne sedan with the largest Engine. She only cared about the color. She took my mom to the store and my mom came back holding her head and kept saying she heard ringing in her ears and said she thought she was in a Amusement park ride. She had to go to bed for the night LOL. I never caught on until I was a little older what really took place lol.

Pretty cool car. I have never seen one of these rascals before. Someone should have thrown Ralph Nader out the door at GM. He was one of the ones who started the no fun movement in the auto industry. That is a fine running machine. Thanks Lou.
