Wow! Still talking about the car. Good press or bad any press is better than no press 😁. The car is up for sale at Mecum Las Vegas on Saturday October 12th 2019 lot#S139. You guys have a good time with it! I know you will 😜

Hahaha.... That was fun times ! Ivan, ruffled a lot of feathers on this board, got a little crazy at times that’s for sure. I like my vehicles Stock I admit that, It was one of the reasons I came on the site and enjoyed the discussions on original parts a lot of very knowledgeable people here. Reproducing the four-speed boots was a big deal.... that I took advantage of and The efforts from others producing the air cleaner decals hope to see soon. And there’s always room on here for guys doing modified vehicles I ’m sure we all can appreciate that, I know I do... also remember I know
Lynn has all the original photos at Impala archives I believe they are on Photobucket ....

Thanks for the link! Glad to know it survives. Now if someone can correct the link at the top of the message board maybe more folks will be able to find it.

Max, That's great. I thought the original site was lost forever. Thanks., Don S

I like this site better. Everyone can get the information They need. It is the forum for Chevy talk, and those that have the fortune to own an SS427 Impala, and SS Impalas. 14,000,000 Impalas sold since 1958 and still made, with the Greatest Impala SS427 in 1969. Then the Chevelle SS454 in 1970. NICK L72

Same here ... I still look-in every day ... I think many of the original guys do also but seldom bother to post on here preferring facebook from what I have seen ... Hope this site stays open it's a serious source of info still ... Cheers Glenn

Same with me Bill.

Jeff,

I feel the same way. And...to get this year started, I will be taking my '68 Z24 to the first "Cars and Coffee" here in Dayton this morning!!

Without a front-end to direct people to this message board it isn't surprising to see it languish somewhat.

Thanks to Max I now see that the old site is still around, albeit with a different URL. Bookmarked!

That is right. Even though My L72 is a 1 owner car and rare, I will do it the way I want. Headers, aluminum Anson wheels, black wall Cooper tires, solid high lift cam, and roller rockers, with tall Chevrolet chrome valve covers and custom made stainless exhaust out the back. HEI will fire the engine with stock original 11 to 1 pistons and bore. It is a street car not a concourse trophy winning car. Not a frame off, because I did not have to do that. Do not get Me wrong, I do not have a problem with others wanting a perfect car. That is not what I remember being a 60's and 70's Chevrolet technician.My car was not perfect off the assembly line, like so many others. I checked them in and then filled in the new car check sheet. My bucket seat corners were rippled, but that did not bother Me. The engine had 1 quart of oil in it, but it ran because of the solid lifters. I got an unconditional warranty on the engine from GM and My dealer. It burned oil and was reringed at 30,000 miles. I dropped 2 valves, seperate runs, but they replaced them. Fit and finish was perfect on My car, with a perfect paint job. That is the way it will be again, but not laquer. I will get more than 40K if the right buyer sees the value. NICK L72

Here is where I’m at.
