x2 on the question. Spectacular look/stance. Would love that style for an Impala I'm building.

Guys, Thanks for the compliments. The wheels are from Stockton. Great crew to work with. They are 17" X 10" in the rear and 8" in the front. The 17" size gives you more rubber choices and I can have my big brakes, too. I'm in Broward County also, so let's meet up some time.

Very nice car! I saw it on eBay awhile back. Just to be nosy, were you the seller or did you buy it recently.

My dad and I were checking out the auction and were impressed with the stock'ish look of the car.

Sweet ride! Welcome to the site.

Killer car, stance, and tire wheel combo. Air ride? any more pics or details you want to share?

That's a nice one to say the least. More pics, more info.

Perfect stance, love the look! One of my best friends in high school had a 64 SS in that color, I always loved that car.

Never heard them called that, whats the reasoning behind that?

Only two posts and those haven't been since March...Probably no point in asking about suspension details.

Thank you for all the positive comments. Here's some information:
Air Ride Tech suspension w/Strong arms front and Hotchkis rear. Worth the investment every time. Highly recommended. Tremec 600 transmission. 3.73 rear. Real SS 138 car. 17" Stocton wheels as mentioned. Disc brakes. Lingenfelter engine. Pretty quick even with me at the wheel as you can see by this unofficial iphone app result. I just didn't mini tub this car and I pay for it with that launch.
