A friend if mine in high school had a brand
new Impala like this one, only it was black
over white. One of my favorite cars ever.
The video? Sorry, I can do better roasters on my ten speed after a coupla beers, and I grew up on an SS.
My Dad taught me how to drive in a 63 Impala.
Warm memories of him and the car.
Nice old iron but Impala is not the definition of a muscle car.
Nice. Noted the badges telling it has a 427. Don’t see a lot of those these days...
Yabbut, the wimpy brakes and slush suspensions made all that power useless if not treacherous.
Anyone old enough to remember trying to do a long hard stop with drum brakes know how scary those old sleds were.
Here’s a kinda nice Mustang. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J6f4T9dYrPQ
Car in the linked video is a very cool ‘69 with some subtle enhancements.
Back in the early ‘90s I had a good friend with a four door 1972 Impala that his dad had kept in impeccable shape. That thing was a true sled but was tons of fun with its unsmogged V8.
Here’s a fun little video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-HFsMb66zs
Thank you for letting me forget about obama and the hildibeast for a little while. I apologize for disparaging Impalas earlier.
Yes:
I thought the “Cash for Clunkers program” was over with?
Oh yeah, ..... Chevrolet is to big to fail, - as well as too big to bail!
The Ford Thunderbolt. A completely stock 'bolt, on modern tires, will run around 9.3 second 1/4 mile times. The fastest 1/4 mile time ever for a factory vehicle.
The prettiest Impala was the 61 model year.
IMHO of course.
