What is the difference between the regular and Sport Sedan/Coupe and Super Sport?

From this angle, the regular Impala has a silver full width trim piece that runs under the taillights, the Super Sport has a black strip and SS badge under the right taillight:

For the record, the Caprice also had a black strip, with Caprice badge under the right taillight:

Hope that helps!

Thanks, but would the Sport Coupe have the same changes as the Super Sport (I asked this because you only mentioned the regular non-sport-sedan/coupe Impala)?

Sport Coupe and Sport Sedan are names for the bodystyles of the hardtop Impalas. Super Sport or SS was a specific model name.
