[SS427]

Normally I hate Facebook but between Ann's Illness and finding old friends and cars I have to admit it has been one of the best sites ever.

A little story. Back in the early 80's my brother lived in Chandler, AZ. Knowing that I was really into SS427 Impalas he would send me photos of ones he came across. His neighbor owned this one and they became good friends. I have kept these pictures all this time and always wondered what became of the car. Today while minding my own business a gentleman posts pictures of his 69 SS427 Sport Coupe. What immediately caught me eye was the "427 Turbo Jet" emblem on the decklid. Could it be? I posted on his FB page and sure enough, his dad bought him the car from the same guy my brother was friends with for $725 in 1985! His Birth date was 4/27/1969 so his dad thought this car was fitting. Neat to run across it again after all these years.
