Photo: Classic Cars of Idaho on eBay
Back in 1967, Chevrolet introduced a series of changes on the Impala SS that easily set this model apart from its predecessors. One of the first things everybody could notice was the removal of the traditional “Chevrolet Impala” badges placed on the body.
This time, the GM brand decided to use simpler “Impala SS” logos on the 1967 model, and even these were dropped on the RPO Z24 versions where the carmaker ended up using SS427 emblems.
The example we have here is one of those wearing the “Impala SS” badges, and as you can see in the photo gallery, it does it quite proudly, especially after being restored to shine bright like a small diamond.
Listed for auction by Classic Cars of Idaho (classiccarsofidaho on eBay), the Impala SS Convertible is powered by a 396-ci (6.5-liter) big-block engine paired with a 700r4 transmission, both with just 100 miles (160 km) on the clock since the restoration was finalized. So it’s almost a new car, though the factory air conditioning system and the radio both aren’t working and require additional fixes.
The blue metallic paint on the car is fresh, and this is the reason it looks so good, with the owner explaining the Impala was disassembled, painted, and then put back together to make sure everything is as exquisite as possible.
The white interior looks fantastic too, and the car overall comes with plenty of new parts, including glass, power convertible top, emblems, brakes, suspension, and shocks. Furthermore, the chrome parts have been polished to look like new too, thus aligning with the shiny appearance of the exterior.
A restored Impala SS can’t come cheap, and there’s a chance this one wouldn’t be too affordable either. The auction started at $1, and the top bid right now is $1,000, though the reserve obviously hasn’t been met. If you’re interested in seeing the car in person, it’s parked in Idaho.
