Thanks man the impala ss is just one of many GM cars that could easily be cloned to imitate the real deal and to an untrained eye the looks can be very deceiving.

No problem man it's all about helping each other out

Sold my 94 ,I do miss it as well...but I want a 96 now

G80 is the 3.08 rear end which is not only on the Impala. Caprice police 9C1 code. The 5.7L code is of course LT1. The only code that matters is WX3 for Impala. Make sure the trunk sticker has the same VIN as the dash tag.

@@ronlaverdiere yup my caprice has it too

Thanks man and they are really awesome cars that seem like people are slowly forgetting about. And there aren't many impala ss's on you tube either. But I won't let them be forgotten

Yuppppp

@@1996impalass -A fully loaded B4U Caprice is a better car than the Impala SS. More rare too.

Already fam that's what's up

No problem

Yes and that makes them even more desirable.

True true but the vin Number is riveted in so a trained eye would be able to tell if it is the original untouched vin or not. I can't say the same for all... 1 more thing about the rear ends, yes the rear ends are interchangeable but the 3.08 rear end in a impala ss is wider than the 3.08 rear in the caprice. And even I never knew that until I had my rear end rebuilt recently. The axles in the impala rear end are longer than the ones in the caprice. And when I though about both cars stock for stock the stock wheels on a 9c1 caprice sit more inward and the ss would sit more outwards.... check out my rear end rebuild video cause I put both axles side by side standing straight up and the right axles were a little longer. I say the right axles, I accidentally bought the wrong ones that were for the caprice but summit's computer said that they would work lol...

@@1996impalass you're right about a lot of what you've written, but I've seen the entire dash taken from the SS and placed in the caprice, vin plate included, rear end exchanged,hood, trunk ,doors etc.

@@1996impalass what some people don't understand is the extreme difference the value is between these two cars. That's why some people go through such extremes to replicate an SS with the caprice

@@technicallyt2344 right, the are so many ways to clone one from the basic clone to a top notch job. I think now a day's there are really more 94 to 96 impala's than caprice's still in existence today. And I think the reason for that is people took more and better care of than them than the caprice. I see more impala's for sale than caprice's unless they are good examples of a clone lol...

Technically T That's what I'm saying too Fam... In Ga and Chicago they been cloning SS's and they don't play with the finish product.!! Have you fooled!!

No problem man, the 95 and 96 Caprices are the easiest to make an Impala SS clone especially if it have the grey interior. The W you seen in the eighth digit was the 4.3L, engine code is L99 if it was a 95 or 96 year model.

1996 Impala SS it was a 1996 when I did a Vin check it came back as a 1996 Chevy caprice. The guy had everything like a impala man I almost got fooled

@@96Impala I'm glad that didn't happen man. The next cars that will start being cloned are the Chargers and Challenges. There will be plenty of Scat Pack clones. Some of the differences between both cars are the bumpers, hood, and rims but is really all it take to fool the untrained eye.

1996 Impala SS thanks man

Title still gonna say caprice

Thanks man I appreciate it.

Thanks man, ima try to keep them coming.

It depends on the condition, if it needs some TLC you should try to get it for as cheap as possible and then the miles are high. If it's in exceptional condition with high miles I would still stay as low as you can. $4000 would be my max price.

That's what's up, I hope it work out for you

1996 Impala SS it did! I’m a proud SS owner now. Did you ever change your exhaust again?

Yeah some people take it to the extreme when cloning an SS. I know the one thing that can't be faked is when you go to title one. For example they may have the impala/ clone but the title will either be salvage, rebuilt, bonded, stolen or something. Other than trying to make a quick buck I don't see why someone would clone an impala other than for those reasons. So I would have to say that no matter how good the actual clone job is, the title and a car fax history report will prove it's authenticity or not.

1996 Impala SS my 96 9c1 is titled caprice/impala and has rear disc brakes still the same car at the end of the day

@@AndersonMotorWorks mechanically yes, essentially no. The 9c1 was built for government and law enforcement use right? In which if you look at your trunk tag you will find the SEO option which means special equipment option. No impala ss will have SEO on the trunk tag. The impala ss was built for civilian use as you know. So at the end of the day they are similar mechanically but built for 2 different purposes my friend.

1996 Impala SS I know and understand what your saying but I was just speaking on some of the things that you spoke upon in you video you probably could’ve broke it down a little more for the people who are new or just don’t know the depths of it that’s all

Do you still have that vehicle?

Yeah cuz most people don't. And it's very easy to clone a Caprice into a fake impala ss. I know the things to look out for that's not in this video.

That's what's up. I think the DCM is the nicest color of the 3.

@@randallwellborn1046 that's what's up man, you'd never believe me, but I paid $1100 for mine lol. It just needed a little TLC is all.

I'm looking for a DGGM 96. 94s are the rarest but I love the floor shifter and analog gauges.

@@1996impalass yeah it seems like the '96 is what everyone want's. I don't feel any less satisfied to have the '94, I found it by chance on Facebook marketplace after the ford police interceptor i was gonna get fell through.

@@frankescobedo5073 I read about that all impalas from 94 to 96 were all built in Arlington Texas. Then they shut down the impala to build the SUVs there.

U9795 is the paint code for my 95 Spruce Green (Grey/Green)

It's a broadcast sheet. Not a build sheet.

That's something only the 1994 Impala SS had.

Thanks man.

I know all of the exterior ways to disguise a Caprice to clone one into an Impala and in this video I did not talk about any of them. Most people will not even attempt to loan a Caprese from years 1991 through 1993 because of the Interior dashboard is made only different than the 1994 through 1996 Impala SS. Not saying that it can't be done because it can all you need is the dash panel from a 1994 through 1996 Caprice or an Impala no. And as far as the more pointy rear quarter window it can be taken out and a rear quarter window from a 94 through 96 Caprice or Impala will work in its place it would just require Bodywork to fill it in. Like I said I did not talk about any of the exterior ways to tell the difference between a capris and a real Impala SS.. In my video I talk about. In my video I talk about the 100% sure. In my video I talk about the 100% sure fire Waze to tell the difference. In my video I talk about the 100% sure fire Waze to tell the difference between. In my video I talk about the 100% sure fire Waze to tell the difference between. In my video I talk about the 100% sure fire ways to tell if the car you're in question about is really an Impala SS. If the car you may be in question about does not have the characteristics I listed in my video it is not a real Impala SS. The whole reason in this is because it is very easy to clone 1994 especially 1995 and 96 Caprice has to look exactly like Impala SS so the intent of the video is to show these absolute ways to determine but different. I will more than likely make a video talkin about all of the exterior and interior differences between the two.

No problem

I think it's because SS is just a trim option that dates back to the 1960s, but don't quote me on that lol

It ties in to the WX3 RPO code. That was the main thing that seperated an Impala SS from a Caprice Classic. You could have a Caprice with an LT1 (the wagons only had that engine), posi traction (if I recall, it was part of the towing package) and i think the 9C1's had rear disc brakes as well but WX3 is the main distinction, same way "9C1" is an RPO code for "police package". Look at it this way. "P71" means "Police Interceptor" for Ford Crown Victorias but theyre still crown vics even though Ford calls them "Police Interceptor". It stands true today with the Taurus and Explorer.

Because they are actually Caprices with the Impala SS appearance package. They actually weren't stand alone models, separate from the Caprice.

No problem

Yes some of them did as you stated the lt1 or 9c1 models.

@@1996impalass Thanks for the info . I appreciate it

That's true

Frfr

I never said the Vin says if the car has the impala ss trim package. I said the 8th digit of the VIN tells what engine the car came with. The WX3 is specific to the impala ss only.

Thanks Marauder Man

I appreciate that my man

1996 Impala SS no problem

I wouldn't buy one but to answer you no more than what a caprice would go for.

Appreciate that my man

Exactly....

VIN doesn't confirm the Impala SS trim package option of the Caprice. It only tells if it a Caprice Classic or base, LT1 or L99, and year it was built.

I'm not sure on that man.

Yep

I know for a fact that even the police package caprice from 1994 to 1996 had the letter P in the eighth digit of the vin # verifying that it came equipped with the 5.7L LT1. And on the trunk tag they will have 9C1 somewhere on it to show that it was a police package. Some of them also came equipped with the G80 rear end.

@@1996impalass You could get a 9C1 with a 4.3L V8 btw. And the more rare 92-93 9C6 taxi cabs with the 4.3L (LB4) V6. Basically an S10/Astro motor.

@@kirwankars8597 I knew the 94-96 9c1 came with either the 4.3L L99 265ci v8 or the 5.7L LT1 350ci v8. I don't know about the 92-93 taxi cab and v6 thing. As most taxi's were retired 9c1's. I've only knew of the 91-93 caprice to have the 5.0L tbi 305ci v8 (civilian model) or the 5.7L tbi 350ci v8 (police package) only. Not a v6.

@@1996impalass just learned about them myself about a year ago. Pretty darn rare. Look up 9C6 92-93 Caprice Taxi, 4.3L V6.

I would pass on it. I would be comfortable at between $11k and not a penny over $12k.

i bought a 1996 black with 30k and i paid $16k. ive seen some with less than 5k go for over $30k. in a year and a half these cars will be 25 years old and they will be classics. i now have 65k on mines and i wont take less than 15k for it if i ever sold it but i dont want to sell it. i will own it til the day i die.

That's what's up bro and thanks, now a day's the impala ss is becoming a dying breed over looked by the chargers and what not. I'm just keeping the ss alive. And I'll check you out bro bet.

Not when the Caprice has the same LT1 with the P in the vin as well...

@@ChicagosM0stWanted true but WX3 is for the Impala SS only. No matter if the caprice has the lt1

True

Probably because the 96 has the floor shifter, and the 94-95 have the counsel shifter

Console shifter on 96, and analog gauges with a tach, and OBD II system, with Dexcool antifreeze. You can tell those by the pink label on the coolant tank cap. And ofcourse the door mirrors are noticeably different on 94s.

True

The rear side windows are the same on the impala and the caprice meaning you still don't know if it's a real impala or not

Right lol

As a matter of fact there are phony ones out there, there simply caprices made to look like an impala. I'd love to take the one you have taking up space in your garage though. How much do you want for it?

Yes, people take Caprices and start swapping parts, honest people call them Clones, dishonest people ask Impala prices.
