      That’s the interesting thing about this body style impala. They had 4 versions of them. You could get both the 2 and 4 door in a fastback body making them look sporty or you could get the regular body where the roof didn’t flow down making it look much more utilitarian

      Six different body styles in 1967. Two door Convertible, Two door Coup, Two door fast back, four door sport sedan (no posts), four sedan (with posts), and station wagon. They never made a four door fastback.

    • @indridcold8433
      @indridcold8433 5 лет назад +2

      I can not imagine anybody restoring the ridiculous front wheel drive Impalas. They are nothing but luninas in drag. What about the modern front wheel drive Malibu? Nobody is, going to restore that anemic, front wheel drive junk. But the legacy Impala and Malibu would be incredible to restore. Not to pick on Chevrolet only, who is going to restore the new front wheel drive Dart, in the future? It is a Dodge Colt in disguise. Ford does not have any legacy names brought back in stupid putt-putts but their line up is not worth restoring, save Mustang. Will there ever be a day someone restores a focus? But the Crown Victorias of recent past may see a resto mod or two, so will the pickup trucks. Chevy's newer style Monte Carlo may see some resto mod also, but it is front wheel drive. Front wheel drive is not much in demand for restoring. The Challenger, Chargers, and Rams will see restoration without a doubt. But there simply is not much that people are going to want to restore from the automotive jokes of today. They are so ugly and flimsy.

      Yes, and nothing went through horrendous weather like big GM cars. I had two '68 Impala's, but the car I recall always soldiering on through big storms was my '86 Oldsmobile Custom Cruiser wagon. It's roots dated back beyond the '67 Impala in the video. These GM "B" body cars (1926-1996) were the best that GM ever made.

      @Jeff Oliver The '67 Impala 2-dr hardtop is a very unique and classic design, but not a lot of them around. This 4-dr looks nice too. The '58 Impala 2-dr hardtop is my favorite and I owned 3 of them at one time. I also had a 1961 Impala SS, but with the high performance 348. Only 625 '61 SS cars were made and they are very rare (half of the ones seen today are counterfeits, or "tribute cars"). The "Bubble Top" '61 Impala hardtop was a one-year only car, but the same bubble top was used for the '62 BelAir 2-dr hardtop which was popular for drag racing. 1958-1964 Impalas ruled the world, and still do 50+ years later!

    One of the best video stories in this series. Christian bought an ordinary Chevrolet Impala sedan from that special time period (the late 1960s) and is bringing it back to its former glory. He is following in his dad's footsteps by buying an Impala, and it's a beautiful example. I appreciated his modest tone in relating his plans for the car. Fortunately, the body and paint appear to be in excellent condition, so it won't take six or eight years. Kudos to him for buying a "foreign" car that originally came from the State of Florida, and working long-distance to get parts to make this happen in Europe. There were a few bumps and hiccups initially, but he seems to be well on his way to making it happen. He's taking his time and will complete the rest of the repairs over the next couple of years. Congratulations, Christian, for being selected, and best of luck with the rest of the build. On a side note, this car is now 52 years old, not 43 years.

    To the new Impala owner - a big grats for it's a beauty! Will provide a footnote. Those year(s) Impala's were infamous for rust in the rear wheel wells & quarter panels. If your turning your attention to the undercarriage do yourself a favor make sure to give areas extra anti-rust proofing & possible drill drain holes (in not outwardly visible locations..) where water may collect. PS - Think water tends to get in (due to poor sealing) around the cavernous trunk. Best wishes..!

Got rid of it for $50 in 1975 because the motor smoked like a tar kettle, rusty everywhere and bent tie rod was more than he wanted to deal with. I think it had only 80K miles on it which back then had reached its expiration date.
