Re: School me on SS427s!
Tax Title and Plates your gonna be closer to 5000 than 4500.. I did a quick search came up with 4300 - 4500 not a convert.. Even at 4500 we are talking Cadillac money for a Top of the line Chevrolet. They were not my words LOL fight with the author of the article written in 1967.
And you better check your data the 2+2 was a model in 65 and 66 .. But due to the GTO kicking it`s sales butt they reverted it back to an option in 67 and if it was tagged a 2+2 the name catilina was not on the veh anywhere all 3 years.. Don`t matter if it is Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia or not it is accurate. How many 4 speed cars where built in 67 ? How many power glides, This was a reg option and it is a mystery. Why would it be surprising they did not keep track of what was built on a 2100 car run.. No one really thought it was important at the time I guess ..
Nit picking or not you said it is not on the car anywhere and I am telling you it is and I am accurate it is there ..
As to my car being confusing It is not much different than a copo tow truck or a Kingswood wagon with a 4 speed and 427 .. They checked the right box.. Part of the confusion was they wanted to sell more of the SS427`s so it was not well known you could get it in the impala .. I guess it is more of people trying to get what they wanted and smarter than the average bear salesmen who knew there way around the order sheets.. And again who knows why GM did some of the tings they did..
