As my sig. states, I am learning, so I decided to post up this question. I have heard and read opinions of both sides, what are your two cents?

I know that today's modern cars, the model differences could be A/C or not, power windows or not, etc. etc. I've learnt that back in the day, the Biscayne was the basic auto, but what are the facts on my question.

Impala and the Impala SS, what are the facts?

The SS package cost only $53.80 in 1961. Imagine that!!! :0


(Yes, I know it was worth a lot more then, but still!)

Its a trim package, has nothing to do with performance. You could get a 6cyl SS if you wanted, or a 409 non SS.

Thanks Google8imp, sorry, I meant sixty8imp.

Very informative website. It's model year time for the toy hauler industry and I am too busy drawing up all kinds of protos/parts/plans. No time to weed through the Google findings, but I do have time for LIL.

That's what I've mostly been hearing.
