The interior of the 1964 Impala is the most beautiful blue that I've ever seen. Amazing what a little cleaning up can do to a car. I love your 59 collection as well, it's one of my favourite 1950's cars, as it's one year younger than me.
When I was a kid (if you were a Chevy guy) you wanted a 55-57 Bel Air or a 62-64 Impala. In South Dakota I never saw a 58 Impala and the 59-61 Impala's were totally bypassed. I am sure a large number of 59-61 Chevys that were in good shape just got scrapped. My grandfather bought a new 59 Impala (yellow and green) 4-door. I have great memories of that car. Glad to see you are able to keep some of the 59's that are now far and few (and expensive). The blue interior really stands out on that 64. Enjoy all your episodes. Thanks.
Fantastic 59 collection. My favorite was the first 59 convertible you showed. I can hardly wait to see it fixed up to its original glory as you did with the first 59 you showed us. Beautiful collection.
I have a soft spot in my heart for a 59 Chevy, wagon or otherwise. My family had a 59 wagon and when I started driving I got it. I LOVED that car... still do. Never get rid of yours. I also had a 63 and a 64 Impala.
i don't think i blinked once throughout your entire vid, lol i am mesmerized. huge huge huge GM fan and owner here. growing up we always had GMs, my grandad always had GMs as well. my first memory is our '58 Impala with the trailer hitch - we pulled our torquoise and white little trailer out to the lake each summer with that car. then we had a '62. then a '68. then a '69. and so on. our neighbours across the street had a copper-coloured '59 Biscayne 4-door with the huge pillars and a straight six, with three on the tree. it was beautiful but sucked wind, haha. Grandad had a '59 Pontiac Laurentian. then a '64 Chev Bel Air. and so on. i've had Buicks, Oldsmobiles, Pontiacs and GM trucks. currently my 1975 Chev Caprice classic - convertible - is getting a ground up resto. should be ready for paint soon then a new top and interior. awesome vid. huge thumbs up.
Ryan My Dad had a 59. After I was born, I was brought home from the hospital in a white 2 door 59, so it was my first ride in a vehicle. Maybe that's why I like them, plus I remember my Dad going fast and we had some old 8mm home movies 🎬 of it. My Dad is gone, so pretty much all I have is some hub caps that came on the 59. A badge of the twin flags one checker on the right, and the Impala on the left never used. Thank you for sharing your treasure Someday, I ll have a 59 Darrin Peterson
Ryan, that is a awesome video of your cars . I've in been this group a long time and you have come such a long way . It's so good to see a young person with so much compassion in trying to save as many of these cars and give them life again. That's an awesome building you have. Ryan keep up with the good work that your doing bringing us the videos and sharing. I've been here in this group when at the time was a little over 6000 followers , boy look at how it has grown.
that is one hell of a collection of 59's. it's great to see a young man with such passion for his vehicles Keep up the great work Ryan I've enjoyed your videos butthis video is special and truly shows your passion for a particular make and model.
Nice 64 Impala Ryan, my brother had a 64 Biscayne in the mid sixties. It had a 283 with a three on the tree, those were the days. Thank you for sharing.
Your first '59 is definitely the belle of the ball. Of all the Bel Aire / Impala iterations, I share your love affair with the 1959's. Thanks for sharing!
Nice collection of 59 Chevrolets! Keep collecting them! The convertible will be a very valuable car when finished! 64 is a very nice survivor car, glad to see it will live on with a new owner! Take care Ryan.
Cool collection of 59s. I am not a chevy person but my Dad had a 59 El Camino, black with silver interior. It also had the GM cool pack AC mounted on the hump that he removed within days of buying it in the mid 60s. Then 1966 my brother's first car was a 59 two door Impala without a post. It was in immaculate condition light blue with blue vinyl interior. Had the 283 and power glide. Unfortunately he hit a patch of ice and it slid sideways into a tree. My first sort-of girl friend had a turquoise 4 door 59 sedan. Finally, a neighbor lady had a grey 4 door sedan but I don't remember if it was an Impala. She called one day and had run out of fuel. I got on my Yamaha 60 (I was 14 at the time) and took some gas and primed the carb and put about a gallon in so she could make it to the nearest gas station. So I don't need to buy a 59 Chevy because I've been exposed to plenty of them over the years. Good luck with your collection. They do not have to be show cars. I have the most fun with cars that I can look at and drive and also not worry about going to Walmart or Target parking lots. The most spectacular of yours when you have the time and money to fix might be the coral two door hardtop. Take care
Thanks for bringing us your '59 Impala's! You've got quite a good cross section of them. Would like to see your Belair's and Biscayne's accompanying them. And maybe one day an El Camino!
Super 59 chevy tour. When I was a little kid; our neighbor would take my mom and I shopping in a dark blue 59 Brookwood. It was about 5 years old at the time.
Amazing collection! All of these are beautiful, but my favorite is hands down the Cameo Coral. It's my all time dream car and I know them relatively well. 1959's are truly gorgeous vehicles and the rare Cameo Coral is the best color in my opinion, and the gray/silver interior goes great with it, which I'm pretty positive is what the interior of your car originally started out as, since it's a real deal Cameo Coral Impala. Satin Beige is definitely the original two tone that it had, that was the offered two tone for the Cameo Coral vehicles. I look forward to seeing the progress of that amazing vehicle.
@@IowaClassicCars Awesome, glad I was right about that. Are you planning on restoring yours stock like it was right out of Detroit, or are you gonna make a custom with it?
I love the 59's. I had one in the late 60's with the 348 tri power and a 3 speed on the floor. Went in the Army in 1968 and my parents sold the car when I went overseas. Still miss that car until this day.
Lucky Kiwi, guy's got himself a great buy there with plenty of smiles per miles to come! Maybe he'll keep you posted Ryan on his progress; it'd be great to see a video of the car when the buyer has finished his work and he starts to use the car
Excellent video Ryan :) also first 1959 showed complete Black on Red and yes nice keeping in good shape plus condition too! I know like do another vechile up but hopefully someday do another too ! I enjoy restoration to old vechiles in job and sometimes wish buy of owners to but may happen!
I really do enjoy your videos Ryan, especially all your ‘59s. My great aunt had a ‘59 Impala 2 dr hdtp, light green with matching interior. Sure wish I had that car today. It was a beauty! I’ve never seen another one in that color. Keep up the good work Ryan!
The red racoon Impala was the same color as my grandpa's '59 which was the first car I drove in 1971 at the age of 11. I drove it down the cow pasture to pick up wood for the kitchen stove . My pop and older brothers were in the car and we took turns. The car had a six with the powerglide and the odometer had rolled over twice.
Got a 58 hardtop.and was looking for a 59 for over a year, and settled for a 60, which is pretty close to the 59. You have an amazing collection these with lots of potential
Great video Ryan. I really have the itch to own a 63 or 64 Impala that is restored, but I have to look into the banking a little deeper to see exactly what I need to make a major purchase like that and have no problems. Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
i used to love the59.....but i saw so many 4 doors here in californua....that i forgot they came in 2 doors..........love the elco also.... the 61 buble top had to of gotten its roof line from this......love them too.
I'm Happy for the 64 she's a beauty, I really like the 59 wagon I hope you get started on it soon. The 67 Impala is Sweetheart also. Great Video as always Ryan Till next time My Friend.
I think that’s an excellent collection! As for my favourite, I’m going with the wagon. That thing (with a v8) pulling a little camper from the mid 60s down the highway would be the ultimate!
Your collection is beautiful! 👌👌 I hope you will be able to restore them all because they deserve it! The '64 has the interior in excellent condition! Just don't go around when it rains! 😂😂
Awesome collection of 59 Implalas Ryan,. Im hoping to pick up a 59 Impala one day a convertible would be great I'll know where to go for anything 59 related
Oh my, that 59 Brookwood 2 door wagon! We had one in 1960 to 1966. White, with 6 cylinder power glide. I don't know if it had power steering. So many family adventures! I have some great photos! I suggest that you get to restoration of that car promptly. Maybe consider changing motor to a 348 tri power? Or 283? But original would be just as fine. Do you have a 1959 hardtop (4 door no post) to complete the collection? Or El Camino?
In 1972 I learned to drive in my grandparents 59 Brookwood wagon with power nothing and radio banking plate. In 69 my mom met a GM engineer who was stunned the family still had it because they kinda of built all the rust in so that peeps would be buying new 64.
0:53 - they still had that bulky Autronic Eye from '53 in '59 ? Thought they already switched to that slender, center-mounted one by then. Love all the accessories you found for this one. 1:45 - OMG OMG a 2 door wagon that didn't die ran into the ground ! The size of that grille guard in rear seat shows how huge piece it is in fact. 3:00 OMG OMG ! A Cameo Corral ! Damn ! Lucky you. 4:14 - wait, they got blue interior for Cameo Coral car ? Was expecting red. Love how well -preserved the interior on '64 turned out to be after washing , the color so bright and vivid as if it was barely sewn together and put on at factory.
@@IowaClassicCars oh I see, I was off by a year then. Felt it happened somewhere around that time. Still impressive gadget today, not to mention back then.
Thanks for sharing your rare cars! Do you ever run across any '59 or '60 El Caminos? Those are my favorite vehicles I would love to own. When I was a kid around the summer of 1970 my Dad brought home a '59 Elkie in pieces and a donor '59 wrecked Bel Air for the motor and re-built the Elkie in the backyard. Our neighbor, who worked at same car dealership as my Dad, owned a '60 Elkie. Have been favorites ever since.
That’s a stellar row of 59s bud. You need to win the lottery so you can restore them.
fingers crossed
I never saw anyone detail the interior of a car missing half of it’s windshield. That’s enthusiasm!
Its parked inside and a new windshield is on the way, so why not clean it out? Do the best with what you have available.
@@IowaClassicCars
Obviously you never worked in a body shop. When we would get broken laminated windshields the slivers went everywhere. After 44 years in the shop you learn…..fast.
I'm so happy that you save old Chevy's. I love them from 55 to 67

Good parts cars for 59s lol
i don't think i blinked once throughout your entire vid, lol
i am mesmerized.
huge huge huge GM fan and owner here. growing up we always had GMs, my grandad always had GMs as well. my first memory is our '58 Impala with the trailer hitch - we pulled our torquoise and white little trailer out to the lake each summer with that car. then we had a '62. then a '68. then a '69. and so on. our neighbours across the street had a copper-coloured '59 Biscayne 4-door with the huge pillars and a straight six, with three on the tree. it was beautiful but sucked wind, haha.

Haha thanks for watching glad you liked it
The buyer of the '64 is a lucky man.

I love them all! I can’t choose!😂

My favorite of your 59 collection is definitely the 2 door wagon, that things is just super cool!!
Good choice!
Nice 64 Impala Ryan, my brother had a 64 Biscayne in the mid sixties. It had a 283 with a three on the tree, those were the days. Thank you for sharing.
thanks for watching!
That 59 2 door wagon is so rare that I did not even know that they made that model. Still need an El Camino. lol
im still looking for one lol
Dig the wagon. Years ago I restored a Studebaker Lark 2 door wagon (1959), drove it for years. Black with red interior.
that color combo is the best
I respect that fac you are saving these even the not so nice ones.....
i love any 59!
Well done! The wagon looks nice
It does!

Nice car you said “heck yea I’ll drive it like that”
yup absolutely
You have an amazing 59 Chevy collection Ryan, your first hardtop is just beautiful! Man those interiors are just outstanding! Best to you brother
Glad you like them!
Gorgeous collection of 59s. Any year older than 70 Impala is a good year! I have a 67 Caprice project car from Washington state.
you got that right!
I personally love station wagons of all years and makes/models. The 1959 2-door station wagon is great.
thanks Bill
Awesomeness galore!
thanks Johan!
That black '59 two door is sweet! The convertibles are almost always bad for floor rust. Very nice collection
Yeah but can be fixed!
Nice collection of 59 Chevrolets! Keep collecting them! The convertible will be a very valuable car when finished! 64 is a very nice survivor car, glad to see it will live on with a new owner! Take care Ryan.

I really like 59 and 60 Chevys. Vice Grip Garage recently found a nice 59 El Camino and did a can I drive it home video which was great!
His was a 60
OK, 59 or 60, I love these cars. Don't have the money or mechanical skills to have them. They are very much in my early memories.

thank you for trying to save them,i had a 59 wagon in 64.loved it.

Glad you like them!
pretty awesome looking car ryan

The red racoon Impala was the same color as my grandpa's '59 which was the first car I drove in 1971 at the age of 11. I drove it down the cow pasture to pick up wood for the kitchen stove . My pop and older brothers were in the car and we took turns. The car had a six with the powerglide and the odometer had rolled over twice.

So many family adventures! I have some great photos!
I suggest that you get to restoration of that car promptly. Maybe consider changing motor to a 348 tri power? Or 283?
But original would be just as fine.
Do you have a 1959 hardtop (4 door no post) to complete the collection? Or El Camino?
Nice! Yes id like to find a black 4dr ht or elcamino too
The first 3 59’s are awesome! Great looking cars. Pity the wagon wasn’t a factory V8, still very nice! 🇦🇺🍺🍺
man i wish it was a factory 348! lol
By far, the most outlandish car of the 20th century. I loved my ‘61 Bel-Air but always wished I had a ‘59. They were gorgeous!
Great video Ryan! What a shame about that '64, going so far only to get tornado damage. Yet it's gonna get saved & that's what counts!
Thanks James
Wow, those are cool, it used to be fairly common to ride around in cars with holes in the floor.
i am from the netherlands and have a 59 impala, and a biscayne and a bel air., i love them
Beautiful 59s Ryan specially the 64 love it
