      @@bullbutter9699 I had a Veloster with the low profile tires. Hit a pothole and the tire blew out. Fortunately, it didn't take the rim too. That little can of air in the trunk wasn't going to do me any good!

    I look forward to the weekends so that I can drive my cars and Nick does it for a living. Lucky dog! At the same time, his videos are top notch and the most enjoyable drive videos on the internet. I probably couldn’t do that lol. I’m probably FAR from alone when I say that turning on these videos feels like getting into a car with an old friend. Thanks Nick!

    For I see that someone special had to give her up, in order to take care of his family. For this was his pride and joy. For I see the price is right for this Impala. For she is right, gust like the person that put her together. Semper Fidelis to his family, for I see that is needed.

    She looks good from afar but she is a crusty bondo queen. Only one pass underneath because those floorpans! Its hard not to love her though because '66 was an awesome year!

  • @wilhelmforsberg5267
    @wilhelmforsberg5267 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Yeah, some higher gear, the engine need some tuning and a few other things and it will be a sweet ride... The camera under shows its been quite rusted out...

    Console was out of a Caprice. The badging at the rear end of it and the wood grain finish are tell tales. The console lid is brushed aluminum like it should be. Though the wood grain & aluminum finish is a mish mash. If you want to fly me down from Canada West Coast I'll inspect the 65/66's Impalas for you. lol

    Great body style and the color is good. Definitely a project car that'll take about $20k to make it local car show quality. Someone tried to show it some love but got overwhelmed or didn't have much money.

    • @mastergunnerysgt1258
      @mastergunnerysgt1258 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I love your comment, for you are right in many ways for many of them that do not have the money in order to do it right. I have been a car evaluator for many years and you were kind in your words. For most people do not understand, besides of what they see. Old Master Gunnery SGT USMC.

    Brings back memories for me. My Dad had this same car in white with a 327ci and 3 on the tree. I stood on the hump between the front seats, nothing holding me. Those were the days. Nice car.

  • @crowstepin7338
    @crowstepin7338 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Did anybody notice underneath the car, on the left side it looks like they cut out some rusted pieces and put some other metal in. That's some Wicked color thou, also I love that year. Also I forgot the PCV valve was laying on the side wasn't stuck in the valve cover.

  • @johnyakovich1017
    @johnyakovich1017 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great Job again Nick! To everyone, flaws as usually! IT'S 58 Years old! Beautiful car! Great price! If you looking for something that you don't have to fix and you want a show boat, prepare to spend $125,000 give or take!! I being conservative at that price. Thanks Nick.

      @larkraines9311 ปีที่แล้ว

      True dat. I looked and waited for 30 years for my '68 Impala SS fastback, 327 4-speed w/buckets and console. Still have the original 327 and Saginaw transmission, but it has a 388 stroker using a 302DZ 4 bolt block from a 69 302 Camaro, and now sports an M-20 Muncie.

  • @mcelyeajoe66
    @mcelyeajoe66 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Fine car. Can't beat a 396. You should speak with whoever prices the vehicles and not sell a car that the safety equipment doesn't work, i.e., windshield wipers, horn, turn signals. Should deduct 5k from the price for the sloppy dash work, no windshield wipers, and the patch work on the undercarriage. All in all. This is one that I would like to own. And finish up.

  • @daleliske9757
    @daleliske9757 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Wow, whoever welded the trunk in needs to go to welding school. If A mig welder was used, it should be almost flat, and a arc welder, if used properly should not be like a rope. It wasn't hot enough for penatration of metal. Exhaust has cheap glass pack mufflers, once the insulation burns out, you get the popping sound. It's a driver, for 30k. Bondo, ? You never know how much, until you start to redo Bodywork, it's usually more than you expect.! That's the chance you take on a 57 year old car.

      Too many cars would get junked if they made a law that all cars needed a saftey inspection before sale. Resellers need to make a profit. All that stuff the buyer can do or pay to have done. If your getting into classic cars though, you really should first know how to fix these things, or be prepared to learn....... because there's often a LOT of needed haha
