I had a set of those wheels 30 odd years ago [maybe 40 odd] But I knew them as Venture...made by Foresight...

As far as restorations go, I pride myself in doing correct restorations not just pretty ones and even though I have owner many 427 Impalas, that was before everyone was anal about correctness and I know very little about these cars (internally) in reality as most were owned in the 70's and 80's when that stuff did not matter. If I knew people would bring their big cars to me I would learn them the way I have studied and learned the 70 Chevelle.

I will make time to stop by your display, you can count on it. </div></div>

Was going through some pictures this morning and thought this one was cool. My friend's 68 L72 custom back in 68 or 69. Looks to have the same wheels!

Thanks for all the compliments,they are really appreciated.ive had a member here inquire if it's for sale and that has kind of got me in the notion of selling it.several local people who have known the car since new have asked and I've always turned them down,but I've been reconsidering.im just not sure what it's worth

Re: my 1967 triple black ss427
 

I would be interested in buying it from you too if you want to sell it. I'll even put my wheels on it and make it like it was back in the day.
Pm me and I'll give you an honest opinion on its value and make you an offer. I know these cars pretty well.

Re: my 1967 triple black ss427
 

Damn. I would love it as well.......

Re: my 1967 triple black ss427
 

this is one of my favorite cars. I hope you dont sell it cheap, or sell it at all. I don't think anybody could find a car easily like this with documentation and that color combo. I have seen others in different colors, but the black is the best (evil looking).

I would to see it in my garage sitting next to my triple black 69 Camaro survivor!. Super cool car! Hang on to it because it will be hard to top that!

Rick, I hear you loud-n-clear on owning many cars throughout the years. I, too, have owned many, many cars that &quot;didn't matter&quot; much when I had them. The restorations back then were more for &quot;eye candy&quot; than for the &quot;correctness&quot;. I remember back in the '80s I did a small block '69 Pace Car and I bought some incidentals from a fellow in northern VA that had &quot;the&quot; (don't know if there were more than just this one at the time; still don't) P-O-P machine with tons of blank tape and cards. He, myself, and a &quot;then&quot; well-known Camaro guy were joking about how nobody would ever fake anything for a small block car, let alone something as trivial as a P-O-P for a small block anything.......I'm not sure that the &quot;then&quot; owner of the P-O-P machine ever did make any of them; it was explained to me that he kinda had it as a novelty. My word!, how this hobby has changed (and in some aspects maybe NOT for the better).

its a beauty. Love the '427' letters and how they call out the mighty 427.
