67RSSS's 1968 Chevrolet Impala SS

Factory Options:

This is a Z03 (SS) with a 327 and a powerglide. The car has A/C, and the Z03 package, Front Disks, Dual exhaust (rusted and gone), power steering and brakes, courtesy lamp group, rallye wheels (15x7). I am learning how to fill this out!

Exterior Modifications:

Someone added pinstriping, it will go. The car is an N6 vehicle (Cordovan Maroon with a white vinyl top), not exactly a common color scheme. She will get all new badging, grill, and trim. We already located a complete set of body side molding for it and have that stored away.

Interior Modifications:

Putting her all back to showroom new. Parchment interior, floor shift in console. Currently completely stripped of all interior.

Performance:

Was sorta running but rusty, and sad. When done, she will get a slight cam change for the 300hp version of the 327. Other than that, since the original trans is gone I am really thinking that a 700R4 would help the economy a bit. The original 2:73 would need to be changed to something more reasonable or course. Sometime in the late 70's, early 80's, a Holley induction system was added, so we are on the lookout for the correct heads, carb, etc.

Suspension/Chassis:

Will have factory original. Not planning on building a G-Machine, but a period correct cruiser.

Drivetrain:

327 (original block) with a (non-original) TH400. 2:73 12bolt (why???) rear. HEI was added at some point in the past, and realistically, we will keep it. I hate points.

Electronics:

Will be factory original.
