Still another of our select classics is this 1969 Chevrolet Impala SS convertible, a very rare as well as unusual classic Chevrolet.
Early in the performance era and before the arrival of smaller bodied cars, automotive manufacturers scrambled to fill a void in the publics demand for high performance vehicles.
Early 1960 offerings were generally full bodied vehicles stuffed with monster engines, referred to as super stock cars.
Through the 1960s and into the 1970s, smaller, lighter cars referred to as pony cars were introduced in an effort to quench the publics thirst to own a personalized performance vehicle.
With this accomplishment well under way in the mid to late 1960s, the full body performance vehicle began to decrease in production availability.
This resulted in making them highly collectable classics in today's market.
Offered here for your consideration is this beautiful 1969 Chevrolet Impala SS convertible.
Its rarity is due in part to how low its production number is.
In 1969, there were 14,415 Impala convertibles assembled.
Of these, only 2,455 were SS 427s.
This particular SS 427 has 390 factory horsepower and was ordered as a zero option unit and was delivered with a three speed column shift transmission.
Our research showed that a hand full of Impala coupes were delivered with the three speed column shift but to date, this SS convertible is the only one known to exist with a factory installed three speed column shift.
