1968 CHEVROLET SS427 IMPALA

The 1968 Impala SS427 was very distinguishable from a standard Impala or Impala Super Sport in several ways. The most identifying features of the SS427 were its special louvered fenders and sports styled hood with a chrome insert near the base of the windshield. Both of these features were SS427 only.

Due to its low production numbers, the 1968 Impala SS427 is without a doubt one of the rarest Chevrolet Super Sports of all time. Of the three year run of the Impala SS427, it was the poorest selling SS427. However, thanks to several cosmetic differences between it and a standard Impala, 1968 is also quite probably the hardest of the three years to fake or clone. For most people, the adventure of finding all the correct parts is both too time consuming and way too costly.

By 1968 the Impala Super Sport had been reduced back to being simply an Impala model option (RPO Z-03) as opposed to being a separate model with its own VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) designation. Accordingly, the SS427 (RPO Z-24) was also just another model option for the standard Impala. Unlike 1967, when the Z-24 option was basically combined with an Impala Super Sport to make the SS427, in 1968 the SS427 was a stand-alone option that could be had on the Sport Coupe, Convertible; only 1,778 new customers opted for the SS427 equipment package. Being a L-36 427 it has the in dash mounted 5,500 redline R.P.M. tachometer, SS console and buckets with 427 dash emblem. Power brakes and power steering are also optioned on this car as well as a factory tilt column.

This car now has a 502 gm crate motor with roller rockers and extensive head work, Holley carb and march serpentine belt system, backed by a 700r4 overdrive with a shift kit and stall converter,4 core radiator ,3 inch exhaust , car is a great driver , for daily or shows . You can fly in and drive it anywhere, car rides nice and will lite the tires at your will ,this car is the perfect mix of restomod/orginal. Paint is great and the side molding is actually airbrushed on and is a great touch to the car , American racing torq thrusts and like new tires, floor pans and trunk are all solid

A few things to note THIS CAR IS NOT PERFECT built as a driver not a trailer queen ,Car is missing the drivers side arm rest , center console has a crack on the passenger side , some rust is showing around the quarter panels and by a front roof pillar , ss trim pieces could use a rechrome , I hide nothing on this car , I encourage serious bidders come take a look and lets go for a cruise , thanks for looking and feel free to ask questions , car is for sale locally also and I reserve the right to end this auction at any time ,Due the research a rare car , A chance to own a car that will only increase in value due to how rare it is

EcoCar2 is on the hunt for a better, cleaner Chevy Malibu [w/video]

Thu, Jun 12 2014

The students spent three years transforming an ordinary Chevy Malibu into a revolutionary vehicle. Not far from the building where General Motors once invented the Chevy Volt, a dozen or so college students are standing on the blacktop alongside a test track, watching a professional driver push the limits of a plug-in hybrid car they've built that's far more radical. These students, from Colorado State University, have spent the past three years transforming an ordinary Chevy Malibu into a revolutionary vehicle. At first glance, it still looks like a regular sedan. But under the hood, they've installed a hybrid powertrain that contains both hydrogen and electric power sources. Even by the standards of the Department of Energy competition they're participating in, it's an outlier. That's exactly what they had in mind. "We didn't want to come here and tell them how to build a better Volt," said Tom Bradley, faculty adviser for the Colorado State team. "They already know how to do that. We can tell them how to think about these possibilities in a whole new way." After three years of work, it all comes down to this. The Colorado State team was one of 15 that came to GM's Milford Proving Grounds last week for the final stretch of the EcoCar2 competition, which challenges regular college students who have no automotive experience to do nothing less than reinvent the American car. The teams have come from across North America, and include schools like Ohio State and Virginia Tech that have a long history of participating in similar competitions, and schools like the University of Washington and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University that are here for the first time. After three years of work, it all comes down to this. The teams have operated 24 hours a day for almost two weeks here at the Proving Grounds, running a gamut of tests that include a 310-point safety inspection, emissions and energy-consumption tests and road tests, in which professional GM drivers ensure they're road worthy. The winning team will be announced tonight in Washington D.C. Revolutionary cars, ordinary package While other green-car competitions encourage extreme designs, this one comes with a somewhat constraining twist: Yes, students must improve fuel economy and reduce emissions, but in the end, they still have to have a car that would appeal to mainstream customers. In practical terms, that means they must keep conveniences like air conditioning and trunk space.

UAW to vote on strike at Kentucky Corvette plant

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The current wait time for a new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray is well, not short. With word of a strike at the Bowling Green, KY factory responsible for seventh-generation sports car, though, that wait time could end up growing substantially.
Now, a strike is still a ways off. UAW Local 2164, which represents the 800 workers responsible for screwing the Corvette together, is set to vote on authorizing a strike today, but even if the employees give the action a go, it's far from a sure thing. According to The Tennessean, both regional and national union officials would need to put their stamp of approval on strike action.
"The membership has to vote to strike, but it's just a step in the process," said Gary Casteel, the UAW's Region 8 director and one of the people that would need to authorize a strike action. Casteel told The Tennessean, "It's purely a local situation, though. They are having some issues with the local management."
