The Chevy Impala is not an uncommon sight on Barn Finds. However, most of them are Super Sports or at least equipped with V-8 power. This one is an exception, coming with the base 250 cubic-inch Turbo Thrift Inline-6 that produced 155 horsepower. Why is that important, you ask? Because in 1966, only five percent of the Impala’s built that year had the six-cylinder motor which was normally found in the lesser Biscayne or Bel Air. This Impala, located in Fairmont, Minnesota, is said to have been in a barn since 1987, and available here on craigslist for $5,350. Our Ikey Heyman found this interesting tip for us!

Fourth-generation Impala’s were built between 1965-70 and would be the best-selling models in the car’s history. The ‘66 model was little changed from ‘65, with the most noticeable changes being with headlight and taillight treatments. Chevy built 655,000 Impala’s that year and just 33,000 of them would come with something other than a V-8. While still a large number of cars, the six represented a small portion of Impala output. We’re accustomed to seeing cars offered with limited information or photos, but in this case the seller provides just one photo – of a very dusty car that lies dormant in a barn. It’s a two-door hardtop that looks to be in good original condition. It was last on the road some 33 years ago and in storage since. The seller says there is rust on the car but doesn’t document where or how much. We’re told the machine has 85,000 miles and that a Powerglide automatic accompanies the base powerplant. To give to you an idea of what this car might look like cleaned up, we borrowed this pic from Barrett-Jackson. The seller’s car is not an SS as in this pic.
