Original Big-Block: 1967 Chevrolet Impala SS 396

Disclosure: This site may receive compensation from some link clicks and purchases.

Some enthusiasts will take one look at this 1967 Chevrolet Impala Super Sport and decide that it is a total package. From its impressive presentation to its big-block V8, it delivers excellent performance and space to seat six adults comfortably. It requires nothing more than a new home and is ideal for someone seeking a turnkey classic. I must say a big thank you to Barn Finder Curvette for spotting the Impala listed here on eBay in Clearwater, Florida. The seller set their BIN at $57,900 with the option to make an offer.

Chevrolet’s Fourth Generation Impala proved a mega-hit upon its 1965 release. Buyers couldn’t wait to get their hands on one, and the badge set an industry sales record in its first production year. A 1967 styling update further enhanced the Impala’s popularity, which is when this SS rolled off the line. It presents superbly in Sierra Fawn and Capri Cream, with both shades correct as verified by the original Build Sheet. The seller is sparing with their information, so it is unclear whether this classic has undergone restoration. However, the lack of cosmetic flaws suggests this may be the case, with the paint shining intensely, and the panels as straight as an arrow. The seller provides a comprehensive image gallery, confirming that this gem is as rust-free as the day it left the line. The glass and trim are excellent, and the Rally wheels are a later addition.

Potential buyers considering the future investment potential of this Impala will welcome one crucial piece of news: This classic is numbers-matching. Its mechanical specifications promise exhilarating performance, with its L35 version of the 396ci V8 delivering a factory-quoted 325hp and 410 ft/lbs of torque. The rest of the drivetrain should make life behind the wheel pretty effortless, comprising a three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and power brakes. This SS will tip the scales just north of 4,000 lbs, but with so much power and torque on tap, the driver will hardly notice it. The seller provides no information about the car’s mechanical condition, and there is no indication that the news will be anything other than good.

The seller’s selection of interior images presents a positive impression, showing the retro-style stereo as the only visible aftermarket addition. Trimmed in Tan vinyl, there is no visible wear or signs of abuse. The dash is excellent, and the pad is crack-free. There are no creature comforts beyond the stereo, but the front bench seat makes this classic undeniably practical. If you’re an enthusiast with a family, this Impala should allow the whole tribe to become part of the ownership and motoring experience.

If you remove the retro stereo and the Rally wheels from the equation, this 1967 Chevrolet Impala Super Sport presents as an original survivor. Its appearance is guaranteed to draw favorable comments, while lifting the hood will command respect. The seller’s price is hardly chickenfeed, and some readers may consider it optimistic. However, the listing statistics suggest that there are people who like what they see. Only time will tell whether that interest translates into sales success. Do you think that it will?

    If I wanted to peruse PJ’s inventory, I could just go on their website and not have to pay a membership fee.

    yeah, I know, Stan. I go in there from time to time. My point is that this site shouldn’t be a place to feature dealers’ cars. But maybe BF is getting paid by the dealers.

    A SS with bench seats? Just doesn’t seem right to me. A full size car with no AC doesn’t seem right to me. 60K for this car doesn’t seem right to me.
    I guess I’ll pass.
