1969 Chevrolet Impala SS-427

# 4035 lbs.

427/335 HP {LS-1}

My neighbor had one. A sharp-looking 'Fathom Green' with a Turbo-400.

Over a period of time, it slowly lost Horsepower. It sounded like it was
running on 6-Cylinders. My neighbor was no mechanic, so he eventually
parked the car on his side-lawn.

A few months later I asked him if he wanted to sell it. He thought about it and said
$500. I got it for $400.

A stretched out Timing Chain and a 'clogged' Fuel Line were the culprits.
