      Well its labeled as a Caprice but it will soon be PRo-Touring "Factory" big block,,,

      1984 Impala Super Sport with "rare" 454 big block/TH400SP and factory Air Glide Suspension and super rare optional "factory" 18in matching Competition Pack aluminum wheels,,,,.
      Also its going to have the AC working, and many interior upgrades.
      Ya know parts are hard to find for these as some say the government may stop them from building performance cars and using big blocks. They also say we may have to contend with electronic fuel injection too. God the thought of having helped get one of those 1975 Cadillac fuel injected 500ci engines running, talk about crap!

      Ha! That sounds like a cool project. I'm all about building phantom cars, it's fun to see folks look it over and scratch their heads because they didn't realize Chevy made a big block SS 84 Impala. Or even better when those know it alls walk by and start yapping about how their buddy used to have one of these rare 84 SS' exactly like yours, and it ran 11's bone stock, lol!

      I've got a phantom 73 "RS" Nova build with/for my son on deck, I'll be going as far as making up RS literature and all for the show display. For myself I have a 74 street/strip Nova that will be headed to becoming a phantom "one of the last COPO Novas Chevy made, this one being the rare light weight version with the factory drag pack". It'll be a 496 with a hidden bottle disguised as a "factory" 402, low 10's and dog dished steel wheels up high are the goal. I'll have a phantom window sticker, literature, photo-shopped "Old" photos of it on an old now closed down drag strip in Michigan, etc.

      Great Impalas everyone and looking forward to seeing more on the '84. Let me know if you need any phantom literature or stickers made up, I may be able to help you out with that.

      I am still in the process of getting parts together, have the "original" 454 rescued from its home in a Winnebago motor home. Fun part I am looking at is making parts tags with "gm" part numbers for the CoolRide parts, thinking of even "gasp" painting the adjustable shocks from ridetech to look like AC Delco stuff!
      Yeah I am looking at the ability to do the stickers and such. Even started designing underhood "option warning tags" for the air cleaner, tubular manifolds, electric fans, future turbocharger(s) option if I "find" one.
      Still debating the optional 4 speed auto option,,,,,,?
      Not sure do I want Tonowanda stickers or what. Do have chrome valve covers and optional aluminum intake after it gets fixed.
      Also still debating having the optional "stock" 15 in ralleys in black out edition.
      Lots of ideas, little time or cool weather!
      Ill get back to you on the phantom stuff.

      Well THAT might be in future. I have a buddy working up some underhood labels, tags, warnings etc. Kind of cool after you see older GM stuff and take a pic, or find older cars near what your trying to duplicate and "steal" the "look" the fun part was finding a repro window stickers, then deciding what the option codes would be. when I get a little more finalized Ill send you some pictures of the stuff,,,,heck I have even thought of doing an owners manual "updated" to combine stock and "optional" information.
      sometimes the fun comes in making these plans THEN following through.

      They are DuPont Hot Hues,
      Top is Sinful Cinnamon and the bottom is Sandstorm. I am thinking about switching things up here soon. The car has been this way for 6 years and I think it may be time to make some changes.
      This car was my first time painting and there are a lot of things that I did not know and wish I would have done differently. So It may be time to get out the liquid torch and make a big change.

      Thanks for the info. What are your plans for round 2? Also what would you have done differently.
