Welcome to Timo's Chevrolet Impala SS '65 website. Until I will get case finished check this, what is to be expected.

I know Timo since we was youngster, (few year ago). I remember the few things from these times. One is Timo's arrange teenage home party. Those time the original Boney M was just public their first hit's and we celebrate always as possibly. There was just build swimming pool on Timo's backyard. When I was just to get to know more closely of my those times girlfriend in some from the bedrooms. Then feels that everybody in that house begin scream, then be clear that the party master was jump almost empty pool and some of his tooth was missing. Nowadays Timo's smile is fine.

Next time we are going to see one of Timo's girlfriend candidate with his motorbike. There probably was something else in Timo's mind than driving, he miss put the brake and we drifted straight to the bushes. Still everything was in order, no broken bones, we only clean dust from clothes and the circuit goes on.

Then we go to the matter itself.

 

Is there some problem

Timo has owned this SS since 1994, quite long journey together. It would suppose their knowing both freaks, however it happens such as from the picture above can be seen. First time when Timo returned from the cruising he swore for himself, that never ever would do any radical changes to this car, only would restore car to its original brilliance. But again it happen, let the devil took little finger and finally went whole hand. First he get bigger motor and NOS, with the thoughts nothing beats the cubic inc. Let's look at what happen with the performance.

What hell machine is this

 

Today this 583 cid monster lurking under Timo´s SS bonnet

 

It is really interesting to see, how this 583 cid monster kicks this Chevrolet SS on the period 2008.

We'll get back to you whit this monster case...

 

Such as in the beginning I mentioned I am known Timo a long time. I remember that he has built and owned many fast vehicles, such as Fiat 850 (The Killer, there was several opponents memorial crosses painted of Fiat's left front fender), Own made Turbo Volvo 142, Chevrolet Corvette and Harley Davidson and so on. And again would shows that something extreme is under the work in the garage of Timo.

 

It shows that Timo build this new car around that huge Slicks.
