One of one Berger SS427 Impala Convertible. The vice president of the Chevrolet Division ordered this car for his wife. He ordered it with unusual options such as Comfortron air, side accent strips, and wood grained steering wheel. But the most interesting is the 1969 Corvette 15X8 rally wheels with the correct beauty rings. The wife drove it for app. 1,500 miles when it was put on the Factory Official list of cars available. Dale Berger Jr., owner of Berger Chevrolet, the performance dealer in Grand Rapids, Michigan, saw the car on the list and ordered it for himself. When it came in he sent it to the service department where he had 427 emblems installed on the hood and trunk. The rear resonator mufflers were removed and long, chrome, exhaust pipes were installed. He drove the car for part of the summer before it was retailed. Frame off, nut and bolt restoration. Complete rebuild of the 385 hp. engine. Original Turbo 400 trans, never been apart. Original a/c compressor and radiator. Out of 128 convertibles and 1,200 hardtops built, only 200 came with the factory accent strip.
