Default New Daily Driver 1995 Impala SS **UPDATED**

Well, I finally got one of my top 5 favorite cars of all time 2 days ago. I have wanted one of these ever since my dad had one new in '95, and now I have one for myself

1995 Impala SS

I HATE THE WHEELS AND WILL BE TAKING THEM OFF IN FAVOR OF SOME OEM SS WHEELS!!!!! SO DON'T FLAME TOO HARD!

Just had the windows tinted today, along with new shocks all the way around, and Flowmaster 50 series mufflers.

It needs some interior work, cause a few of the door panels are starting to show their age, and the carpet has some stains in the back. but all i need is a starting point
tell me what you think



took a few more a couple nights ago....


ricer burnout...









the aftermath....tried to line it up right, but didn't quite get it there...


***UPDATE***

YAY!!! NEW WHEELS!!!! Yeah I know they are stock, but I think it is an improvement from before

Now just waiting on the badges to come in the mail!

Very nice I've always liked those.

The first year SS's had that little plastic piece on the rear window to give it the curved look. That's how I can always tell it's a first year car (don't remeber the actual year).

the interior panels are showing age due to the car never having tint + sitting outside for 10 years it was owned by a sherrif, and actually used as a patrol car.

Here are pics and info of it from the original owner
