DESCRIPTION
1965 Chevrolet Impala SS 2 Door Hardtop
For consignment, a 1965 Chevrolet Impala SS 2 door hardtop showing 65,371 miles, but the true miles are unknown due to a PA title exemption. This one\'s been garaged for the past 25 years and was repainted in its original color around 2010.
Exterior
Mist Blue, code DD, presents in beautiful two stage coverage, coating the enormous panels with the hue casting shadows on subtle body lines. When mated with clean 15-inch Chevrolet Rally wheels, chrome bumpers and stainless trim, it\'s an instant head turner. Free of side molding and rocker trim, the smooth blue paint receives some color through the red and blue Chevrolet emblems on the decklid and nose, SS in the grille, and 327 crossed flag emblems on the fenders. Take a long look at those iconic triple tail lights; they\'re here with nice polished trim and blue dot centers for those other than the reverse light. Imperfections are few and far between. They include some filler dimpling and a chip taken out of the passenger\'s rear window, and that friends, is all we could find!
Interior
Blue vinyl door cards have a handsome stitched design and host the cranks for the window and vent window, and both doors are in great shape and feature a substantial carpeted insert. The front bucket blue vinyl seats show very light use and combined with the rear bench, remain in show quality condition. Blue and silver dominate the front starting with the steering wheel showing some proper patina and fronting a horizontal speedometer to 120mph, flanked by a fuel gauge, tachometer and AM radio, all looking nice. Vent controls line up with the stereo multiplex, a precursor to the equalizer that would eventually be built in. Meanwhile, the center console is a fantastic array of the SS emblem, chrome shifter, big clock, and storage bin, all over black twist carpet and vintage style rubber mats. The headliner is in great shape and the trunk is covered with a vinyl mat showing some use over the spatter paint of the trunk floor which shows some surface rust.
Drivetrain
Clean conditions prevail in the engine bay where we find a period and date correct 327ci V8 with a Holley 4-barrel over an Edelbrock intake, all good for 250 horsepower. It is set into motion though the date correct Muncie M20 4-speed manual that sends power to the date correct, see a pattern here,12 bolt with 3.31 gears and the desirable Positraction. Power brakes and power steering are on board.
Undercarriage
No complaints here as light patina mixes with some newer components. The dual exhaust runs through an X-pipe, then FlowMaster mufflers before terminating in the back. Power drum brakes are on all four wheels and suspension is comprised of coil springs front and rear with a 4 link in back. You can\'t miss the bright yellow Bilstein shocks at each corner.
Drive-Ability
The 327 fires up with gusto and we roll this long car, all 213 inches, onto the test loop where we find good power and a comfortable cabin for a capable car. We note a slight rattle in the engine but unsure where it\'s coming from, the radio is not working and the heater blower also fails to engage. Beyond these things, the big bodied blue functions at 100%. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
If you\'ve read this far, it\'s likely you\'re not alone. This generation of Impala SS is extremely desirable and we have the sales records to prove it! Pretend you\'re the third monkey on the ramp to Noah\'s Ark and brother, it\'s starting to rain! Make that call today to seal the deal on the SS you\'ve dreamt about!
