1996 Impala SS

[SoundQcar]

Yesterday I took my Impala to Deric (dneedsmuscles) for a full detail. I had recently driven the car cross-country while relocating to NoCal, and not only encountered some hard rain en route, but I also received some scratches on my front hood, courtesy of my Colgan Bra.



Deric took some pictures, which I`m sure he`ll share when he gets around to it, as well as going into detail as to what steps he took to bring the lustre back for me. I`m sure he`s wielding a better camera than I have....but here`s a few pics from mine.



I couldn`t be happier with the results. If you`re anywhere in NoCal, and need your ride in tip top shape, you owe Deric a call.

SSWEET!!! Another SS owner on Autopia. DGGM really is a cool cool color. Lookin good! Ever head over to the Impala SS forum? Anyway, glad to have another B car guy here at autopia. I`ll probably have atleast 2 or 3 SS`s (plus my 94) lined up for detailing this summer.

He did a very nice job i really like that body style. The don`t make them like they use to.

SoundQcar- Welcome to Autopia!



I too love the DGGM b-bodies, yours looks great. I`m always impressed by how much the clear corners add to the appearance and the chrome wheels sure are in nice shape :xyxthumbs

car looks beautiful ask him to post up before`s and write what products he used. I always notice things like this but what kind of car you got stashed under the cover in the garage?

Great looking SS! Beautiful wet shine too. :up

I love my 1996 Impala SS too. I see you got it in that light green color. I wish there was more color choices for the car ( I would have liked purple). Here`s mine with a coat of Collinite 845 on it.

Nice SS and nice job on the detail. :xyxthumbs

Thanks for the comments guys. I pm`d Deric regarding the post, I`m sure he`ll go into more detail than I`m capable of.



The car only has 15k miles on her. It`s as clean inside and underneath as it is on top. Mostly shown, not driven a whole lot. Maybe that will change...who knows.



Way2SSlow....glad to be part of the brethren.



vdubbya....no disrespect to those who live there, but I wouldn`t wish Iowa on my worst enemy. Lived in SoCal for the first 40yrs of my life, spent 2 awful years in Iowa...don`t ask, now back where I belong. :-)



757....the car under the cover is Deric`s, as those pics were taken at his place. Not sure what`s under there.....a Benz perhaps???



3puttjay....Nice Impy, always liked the DCM`s.

Great car, great detail. I`m tempted to pick one up someday and give it a good treatment. They`re pretty quick, right?
