Or Winsdsor, Ontario? They're probably on the Detroit side looking across the river. Looks like it was about 40 degrees outside! You'd think GM Photographic would have waited for a sunny day.

I was thinking about this car earlier in the week too....what ever happened to it? . The windshield looks lower than stock....kind've speedster'ish? . I never liked the look of the nose much as any pre '75' era stuff without round headlamps always seemed to look too 'homemade-custom'....goes along w/ that bad tube grille feeling? . Does the car exist or was it scrapped....you should have it Jeff? . There must be other pics, I'm pretty sure this isn't the shot I recall? . Also on Chevy customs....what year was the 'Caribe' or whatever the 4 Door ragtop Impala was called....a '65? .

Thats a pretty cool pic. Thanks for posting that.

Gets you wondering if there are any still around and if so what are they worth. Any idea?

Jeff, cool pic!!
Wilma, It was a '67 "theme" car.
Pete, that looks like a standard height convertible windshield to me, they were a couple inches shorter than the coupe windshield.

Here's a pic of the Caribe. As stated, based on a 1966 4 door impala turned into a convertible. It has '66 Caprice tail lights, 396 and Caribe script on the rear quarter. I believe that this car is finished in the 1965 color of Evening Orchid. This is the only picture I ever seen of it. A good friend who has worked for GM for many years told me it's not around anymore, most likely crushed. I hope not. Sometimes those cars had a way of ending up in somebodies garage. I think it would be cool to build one.
