...ahhhh, so if that red car is canadian then I'm not as dumb as I look, it has the wrong scripts on it etc. But curious if it is a usa car or not. ??? since it come from manitoba when found in a field, possibilty is ????


 The car pictured above ( madeira maroon) is a US car and is correct as far as emblems, hood etc. 

 

Here are pics of the cars to see the differences. Maroon car is a US built SS427 ( RPO Z24 car), the red car is a 1967 impala super sport with a 427. You can see the difference the Z24 option has appearance wise, it was a appearance package.

Also note the difference in engines. The Super Sport with the 427 would have the 385 HP motor while the SS427 would get the L72 with 425 HP.

 there was only a few L72 engines built for the 67 model year for passenger cars but they have no record where they went. The SS427 Z24 got the same 385 hp engine
