1995 Impala SS
I've grown up around the Lt1 powered BBodies, my family has/had 8+ of them over the years. Well I got the opportunity to own my own SS after jokingly offering a family friend my 05 Altima in trade. He needed money for a house and accepted the offer, realizing he could sell a running 180k Altima easier and for slightly more than he could a 210k+ non running SS. Went and picked it up earlier, it's a bit rougher than the Altima but has tenfold potential. The interiors torn and worn a bit, has a couple electrical issues, and needs a water pump. The plus side is that with the 94 9c1 and it's parts car I should have most electrical harnesses I need. Feel free to post up your BBody pics.

Re: 1995 Impala SS
So when we were unloading the car I noticed that the center console was filled with assorted fuses, relays, and a signal flasher or two. Took the plate off the interior fusebox and low and behold more than a few were missing, along with more than a few grounds unattached (I have taillights now! ). Started to insert them one by one and I started to magically gain interior options that weren't working beforehand. So now while I have functioning keyless entry and power seats and windows it still won't run. No power to the fuel pump, so I'll end up putting it on a lift later this week and trace the wiring to see where it's not flowing. She's starting to not look like a pos though!

Re: 1995 Impala SS
Very cool. I myself have a 92 Olds Custom Cruiser and a 95 9C1. Had a 92 Caprice wagon as well but sold it, working on selling the 9C1 as well.

Noooo. Don't sell the 9c1! Lol. I dig the stance, what shocks and springs are you running? I almost threw a set of belltechs under my 94 but settled for SS stocks.

Re: 1995 Impala SS
I had a 95 Roadmaster Wagon LT1 as a DD for awhile...I really miss that car! They came standard with a stout rear diff too! Buick LT1 wagons had an Auburn 3.73 limited slip rear but did not have rear discs....I put a 9C1 disc brake rear conversion under that wagon before selling it....that thing would haul serious @$$ for a bone stock cruiser!
