Needless to say, the Chevelle also sold like hotcakes in 1968, as the production included close to 423,000 units, out of which around 58,000 of them rolled off the assembly lines with SS 396 tags. The Super Sport package, on the other hand, made its way to around 38,000 Impalas, most of them fitted with the Turbo-Fire 327 (5.3-liter) small-block.
Enter this original, unmolested, one-owner, barn-find 1968 Impala SS.
As you can tell from the pics, this Impala isn’t necessarily a mint-condition model, but on the other hand, it’s not a wreck either. In fact, it’s far from a rough project, as the car seems to tick many of the boxes for a very solid restoration candidate.
Parked since the ‘80s in a barn, this Impala SS obviously requires a lot of work, and a full restoration is required both inside and outside. The cabin, for example, needs a complete overhaul, but according to eBay seller allaboutdaloot, most of the parts are still there.
When it comes to the engine under the hood, this Impala SS was born with the almighty 427 (7.0-liter), and the same engine is still there. However, since the car spent so many years in storage, the big block is now locked up from sitting, so it’s hard to tell if it can still be saved or not.
