Vehicle Description
1965 IMPALA SS Convertible Chevrolet's full sized Impala new
styling for 1965. Chevy's new big car was both elegant and sporty
by design. All GM full sized cars switched from the 50's-style
X-member frames to the so-called "full-perimeter" frame, which
provided superior structural strength and better supported the
large new bodies providing a more quiet and comfortable ride.
Engine choices remained wide with up to 10 options including the
ever famous "409". Among the top of the model production remained
the Impala SS with a base price of just over $2,800 for the hardtop
coupe. At mid-year 1965, Chevy decided to try the "luxury Impala"
idea and added a $200 Caprice option for the Super Sport Sedan
which included a more luxurious interior, special trim and a more
heavy-duty frame. Chevrolet had done it again and sold more cars .
OUR VEHICLE It is powered by its 283 cubic inch V8, power-glide
transmission with the shifter in the counsel on the floor between
chrome trimmed blue vinyl buckets through rear wheel drive. Looking
