a skyline and a porsche sitting in the garage too, this bloke is living right
He for sure has a taste that nobody can disagree with holy shit
@@Nick-jt1if he just likes good shit. Fuxk it…. 4/6/8 cylinders….. don’t matter, as long as it’s quick.
and a fucking passat b5, immaculate taste
@@sadrian8411 love my audi b5
Yes sir !
I could almost smell the exhaust
Smells like grandpa
I was thinking that same thing
Lol I just posted about the exhaust smell, and then saw your post!
Smells like freedom to me
@@onefine5976 yes
66 was an awesome year. Every car was cool in 1966, I was there
I'm so jealous, I wish i was.
You lived the life my dude
I almost bought a 66 charger years ago but wanted a 69 n never forgave myself even though never liked the back end
Not for everyone
Was in high school mid seventies,older Chevy’s were cheap….had 2 different ‘66 Chevy 2’s a Malibu and a SS396 Impala…a couple were kind of beaterish though.
I love that you didn't put some goofy 20"+ rims on that beauty. Old skool steelies are where it's at with these old muscle machines. That thing looks SINISTER!
I agree, but I would lose the hubcaps. That would give it a more badass look.
As much as I can appreciate the classic look. 14" rims with balloon tires ride like shit compared to new tech. Since the entire suspension was designed around bias ply tires any way, changing them wouldn't help much. It's an old classic that rides like a boat.
@@GIwillo Some sizes are getting harder to find. I think 17" is one of them. I do get what your saying though in terms of ride quality. To me, thick side wall tires feel mushy, and dangerous at speed. What if you have to make a defensive maneuver? You need to have a feel for the road. Most cars have large diameter rims today.
Can’t put 28s and candy paint on a 66 anyway only 71-76 and 94-95
Thanks 🤙 its a boat
There will never be a better sound than a classic V8. NEVER
Nope…Ealon Musk will see to that!
Getting that macaroni sound while fingerings out girl is a great sound as well

sure there is. your ole lady sounds pretty good when . ops never mind hahahha just messin with ya ... hahhaha
Absolutely love the look of this car... Sounds amazing.
thank you 🤙
Back when Chevrolet was "The Heartbeat of America"!
‘Heartbeat of America’ love it! 😍
Still is for this part of the world 💙
@@966impalas9 my comment was in reference to then and now. "Listen" to this video and then listen to the new GM small blocks (I know the 66 was a Big Block). If you're old enough you'll remember the slogan "Is it live, or is it Memorex?"
The latest batch of GM small blocks, you could pose a similar question; "Is it Chevy, or is it Ford?" Louis Chevrolet would be spinning in his grave if he had any idea what General Motors was putting a bow tie on!
That's why I said, "Back" when Chevrolet was the Heartbeat of America!
@@966impalas9 hell nah
Only good thing going for them is the Vette
Other than that its just suvs
Actually back then it was “See the USA in your Chevrolet “
When I was a soldier in the Soviet army, I drove a large truck with the same engine. It is a pity that he was not so low long and shiny.
Was it Ural?
@@RoadRage0 yes of course
Ivan 👋🤴
You would admit that? Cringe
@@christopherdevoto9024 admit what?
These are the dreams that gearheads have, yes the exhaust Smells wonderful especially when it's a new motor and the rings haven't Seated good💖💖💖
Sorta like the greasy fingerprints burning off of new headers?
Well said the smell of Hi octane. That sounds very lumpy. Cammed right out.
Really
@@karma4553 No I was just kidding
There's nothing like the sound of a lumpy-cammed big block at idle. LOVE IT ! ! !
my neighbours and the other small town residents hated me 😂
These cars sounded like that STOCK.
Those big blocks came from the factory ready to rock and roll.
And rock and roll they did.
They would rock and shake the ground they were rolling over with the sound of all that power.
I’m 73 years old, and I remember cars like this.
They were big, and looked like an innocuous family car
until you gassed on it and smoked the tires for half a block.
My eyes are tearing up. I can't decide on if it's the sheer beauty of this car or if the exhaust made it through my screen and got me. Either way, BLISS
I had a 66 Impala SS 396/4sd and it was a strong comfortable road car and a blast around town and gas was $.25 a gal. For a car that heavy it was extremely sporty when set up right.
That place looks very peaceful and depressive at the same time.
Reminds me of the old American police cars very cool
Love the mad max kinda look. Clean, dark and simple. And big engine of course.
went to start my 03 impala after this.. its laughed at me. still loves me, but just wasnt and never will be the same,. wat a beaut, thank you for that time.
I had a '66 SS Impala...God I loved that car.
I bet that exhaust smells so good!
You know damn well it does
Chill bro
@@toyotaAETruenoGT-APEX judging by your name im assuming you only have smelled fuel injected 4 cylinder exhaust. So let us men have our moment
👃 fresh air
I got 7.5 thunder bird but that black beauty is one hell of a automobile a time of greatness when men could be men and ppl didn't scare so easy God bless you . God bless America.
20 liters of gasoline were burnt during this video
and no one cares a bit.... listen... just listen.... perfection!
@@TheShellshock67 lol sounds like fart haha
@@jankan4979 sounds like a very beautiful fart then
20 gallons ! :-)
The 454 Chevrolet big block- pass anything but a gas station.
Looks good blacked out and with the black steel wheels and baby moons.
That sounds so sweet!!!
Sweet??!!
Yes it does!!!!
those 454’s sound good
a Skyline and a Porsche too, this man is lucky he bought everything before all these cars skyrocketed 😂
For us old people who used to drive vehicles like this, I owned 9 different Impalas over the years, this is powered by a 454 c.i. V-8. Not a 7.4 liter, had never heard that description way back then. Loved my Impalas, great cars.
454 ci = almost 7.44 liters, so this is a case of potato potato, tomato tomato. By the looks of the surroundings, this car is in western continental Europe, so the metric cylinder volume of an engine is commonly referred to in liters. And we'll have to take their word for it too, since the Impala didn't get a 454 until 1969/1970. So there's probably an aftermarket or remanufactured engine in this car.
@@ArKritz84 ok...
@@ArKritz84 I was waiting for someone to mention the engine wasn't available in this car but that doesn't take away the cool factor from the car or awesome sound.
Back in the day factory engine was of course 427 oh how sweet
The point of my comment wasn't about period correctness of available equipment, it was about the fact back when I owned all my Impalas was that we were still using cubic inches to describe our engines in the USA, the liter stuff came much later. Like now I own a Super Duty Ford with a 6.7 liter diesel V-8, back in the day it would have been called a 406, like the hi pro, gas V-8 Ford used to run. Their answer to the Chevy 409. Still like the sound of a nice running V-8, no matter the designation.
That thing definitely sounds healthy
Now that’s the real V8 sound. No imitation
I bet a magnet will stick anywhere you put it. That's what a engine is supposed to sound like.
I had a 66 Caprice 396. Loved that car.
Perfect shine runner
I owned two of them,one had a 327,the other a 396 with a green driver side fender the Barittamobile
GM knows how to make good vehicles.
They used to know
Good RWD vehicles I'll agree with. Camaro, Vette, and trucks still seem pretty solid
I had a beautiful 66 Impala in mint condition, bench seat and all and my motor never sounded that bad.
Man that 66 Impala With the 454 Big Block sounds like the God of Thunder mate.
Thats a damn beautiful sound, closing my eyes and picturing the mad max interceptor on tick over 🤤❤️❤️
That sweet sound of bliss 👂🏿👂🏿👂🏿
Back in the day, chevys ruled. After the early 70's not so much.
😂 you weren't around much huh?
@@MississippiDan1 That's what the record books say!
@@stefanovichmichael9686 I'll be happy to see any proof of that... NHRA, NASCAR, IHRA etc. Have been consistently dominated by Chevy
@@MississippiDan1 I'm agreeing. My point is that Roger Smith destroyed the company, and they have produced a lot of junk since. I've always been a Chevy guy. Old ones that is. Pre 73.
As much as I love these, no way could I afford to run one anymore. This clip cost $20 in premium fuel
Can't imagine that; the car only went 125 feet & and top RPM was 885 reves. Even "race gas" doesen' t cost 375.oo$ a gallon. And yes I'm galous.
Hopefully the next president will be oil friendly. I don't want it to go away just yet.
What looks like a skyline peaking out from the garage too, nice cars
yes, r32 gtr & thanks 🤙
Ol' school steelies...
Clearly someone with taste and culture...
love the old steelies. other wheels were never an option for me
I saw a couple of very cool cars tucked away in that garage. Cool cars brother.
Thanks :)
Love that skyline too!!!
There is nothing like A Vintage V8. They just sound awesome
Glad to see your Granny can still drive.
As a Hispanic I almost started shaking my hips at the beginning.
My favorite impala. That thing is sweet! Complete sleeper
My drummer in HS had one of these in mint green. Bass player had a '69 SS Chevelle and I had a '71 Buick LeSabre Custom 455. That was in 1972.
Pure sound AND pure smoke.
Need to tune up that left tail light. The sound of this beast is nuts.
Oh, how I miss that light that once shined so bright in Detroit.
that… is the sound of pure, unbridled, ‘Muirca
Decent sounding cam.
My brother had a toxic crusader and it was a straight mobster!
Never owned a Chevy but always thought they were the best-sounding of all V8's... sexy!!! ..
Big, heavy and fast. Whole lotta love.
I had one in high school. I wish I still had it. Smooth, and fast!.
Yes sir, that 7.4 big block never saw a gas station it wanted to pass
Had a 396' years ago; Got into an accident...Totaled the front end!
I was devastated!
But, Happy Ending!!
I found a 77' Nova---Dropped a 330HP 350 in it; A 400 Tranny, with
a performance 'Torque,' Dual, 2, and a half exhaust; 600 CFM Eldel-
Brock, with a, "Sub-Stack," 8.5, Wires, Gas-charged Shocks; Per-
formance Leaf Springs; 326 Rear Gears...and a few other 'Toys'
as well.
Painted it ( Myself) Cherry Red, with Artistic "Racing Stripes."
I got a LOTTA' looks!!
Wait is that a Skyline R32 ? God damn 😍😍
No it's a 1966 southern boy ball rocker with 454 cu.Turbo jet V8. A lot of American families got started in cars like this.
you kidding right
Nothing like the sound of a big block engine. Sounds like America back in the hay day of cars in the 50s and 60s.
It’s a 2 door post car too. Nice.
I absolutely love seeing muscle cars outside the US.
N.Y. plates?.....
Pure RICH power. Burning the nose and eyes muscle
Insane impala sound.
Great car 😎 reminds me of dirty Mary and crazy Larry✌️
Damn. I love the sound of a good V8.
It sounds and looks awesome.
But I wouldn't want to pay the gas bill
Back then it was reasonable. I daily drive one. It’s not bad if you stay off the fuel pedal. Kinda hard when it’s fun to drive
Biden
@@LZRxHWK okay buddy… maybe you should travel a little. Fuel prices are up in every country. I don’t think Biden runs the world
@@LZRxHWK nah.
Biden couldn't do shit where I live.
@@LZRxHWK
It’s the big nosed penny pinchers behind the oil industries
sounds like my 66 shotgun sedan in high school. love this one awsome video
There were always a few of these around town in the 60's and early 70's, but not anymore.
That's the sound you get when the pistons are as big as them old school Folger's coffee cans 😂😂
I bought 67 Caprice 2door 427 car from Washington state. Wish it had been complete. Oh yea yours sounds sweet
Love the set up, baby moons really look bad ass!!
The Chevy from the beginning of Dirty Mary & Crazy Larry 👍 I know, this 1 is a 2 door, the one in the movie was a 4 door but same year & a big block engine
Pure beast
I love how they show it backing out of the garage all wet with crap all over it
I see he has nice taste in cars, Porsche 911 R32 GTR Impala.... pretty nice. Porsche my favorite.
Now that Ladies and Gentlemen, is a lumpy cam!
ROAD YACHT! Tank U
Gotta let it roll out the yard if you don’t want no ditches lol
Miss the day when we called them out by cubic inch instead of cubic liter, 409 cubic inch sounds so much better than 6.7 liter. I guess it's a sign of the times but I still miss the day.
When the moonshine has to be delivered on time ...you use this car.
AMERICAN MUSCLE🇩🇬
THE BLUES BROTHERS ARE BACK! ✌️
Looks like he's loaded up to run some moonshine 🙂
My dad was a deaf mute he had one like that hard always had Johnny cash playing loud as hell burning ring of fire
Makes sense to give the V8's displacement in CUBIC INCHES for a '66. Chevy. None of this metric bull. This is a 457 cu. in. engine! Wonderful sound, and the '65 and "66 Impalas were a standout design with clean lines and timeless beauty.
What a rear 👌
The sound of America.
The heart beat of America
Spectacular!!
nice stall and big block
Now imagine back when leaded gas was around and it smells sweet
Id drive that thing only on the weekends. Cant have that monster on the streets
I see that r32 hidden in there lol
Love it! Search 69 Grand Prix sj....beautiful
Pass everything but a gas station!🤣
My favorite bodystyle impala 🤩😍🤩😍
In 1966 the top Chevrolet engine was the 427 cid, which is a 7.0 liter. The 7.4 liter has 454 cid but it didn't come out till 1970.
Damn this reminds me of the old car game ways
my math teacher has one when I was 11 yrs old , my neighbor had one went I was a kid ,396 ss 4 barrel , 4 speed
Man I love black rims and dog dish hubcaps!
