1965 Impala SS
Partially Restored
Project
"The Impala was completely redesigned for 1965 and featured a more streamlined look, rather than the boxy look of previous years. The new Impala was advertised as having “foam-cushioned seats, deep twist carpeting, new engines and transmissions and Wide-stance handling”. The Sport Coupe had a new fastback roofline. (Impala SS engine options included the 230ci 140hp I-6, 283ci 195hp V-8, 327ci 250 V-8, 327ci 300 V-8, 396ci 4 bbl 325 V-8, 396ci 4 bbl 425 V-8, 409ci 4 bbl 340hp V-8 and the 409ci 4 bbl 400hp V-8.) In February, the mighty 409 was phased out and was replaced by the Mark IV 396 cid V8, which would power Chevrolets for the rest of the '60s. The new 396 could be mated to a new automatic transmission, the Turbo Hydra-matic 350. The 396 was a direct descendant of the "Daytona Mystery Engine" The 409s and 396s were available in all Impalas, including four door sedans and station wagons, but the Impala SS continued as a separate series."

I purchased this car from the estate of the deceased owner who was in the middle of a complete restoration when he became ill and could not complete the project. The restoration was started in 2006 with all new floor and trunk pans installed and a complete repaint in the original Mist Blue Metallic. Most of the exterior emblems are new as well as the door handles and mirror. The bumpers, grill and interior are original. The original 327 was removed and a new 350 GM crate engine was installed. The transmission is the original 2 speed powerglide automatic. The paint and bodywork are excellent and the engines runs terrific. Nicely equipped with power steering, power brakes, power windows and factory air conditioning. Overall this is a car that could be taken to the next level quite easily as all the hard work has been done.
