1961 SS 409 impala
 

I'm going to look at a 61 SS 409 .Is there any way to tell if it is a factory car?

Original dealer sales stuff...window sticker...paperwork...otherwise its a crapshoot at best...very few made...many labeled as SS 409's now...from memory..P/S,P sintered metallic brakes,grab bar,console plate,emblems...etc. the console plate was 1 year only but was repopped a while back...I'm sure Verne will chime in with suffix codes for the 61 engine,,,
