![]() ![]() My friend Michael used to call his Dad’s powerful weed-eater a “327 on a stick.” The phrase “327” suggested performance in the years before 400+ cubic inch motors became commonplace. ![]() While the 327 cid (5.3L) small-block V8 may look underwhelming in the full-sized Impala’s commodious engine bay, buyers of the day would recall the bevy of 327-inch mills that powered the flagship Corvette exclusively from 1962 to 1965. The listing here on eBay has attracted at least six bidders and a going price above $3500 without meeting the seller’s Reserve. What might be an original 327 mates up to a PowerGlide two-speed automatic, and the metal looks mostly solid with rust-through in small areas. Until the starter crapped out recently this car ran and moved around under its own power. With its Bolero Red paint showing a hint of shine, this 1967 Chevrolet Impala SS in Emmett, Idaho may require much less work to safely hit the road than many BarnFinds feature cars.
