No madder where the engine stands she is a true blast from the past, for the hot roaders of the day would do anything to keep there rides a live, for this Impala is a lovely thing to see and worth every damn penny.
Your ride along camera and POV cam have the best visual I've ever seen on RUclips. I like how the viewer can see the whole windshield and dashboard plus what you are doing with the floor shifter while you drive down the road.
@@SamLopezIthe heads on the 348 and 409 resemble a W. The combustion chamber is built into the piston top and the heads are flat across the valves. They are cool looking engines and it is amazing the 409 was capable of 425 hp. The LS6 454 only topped it by 25hp.
Another beautiful car Nick! Takes me back to 1979 when a friend had a '64 impala with same body but beige in color with 327 2 speed power glide transmission .. we picked up a couple girls and spreaded a blanket on that huge trunk.... keeping this pg you know what happened next lol... Another friend challenged to a race with '79 Pontiac Lemans with 350 3 speed automatic and the impala walked away from him.... those were the good old days! ✌️❤️
I borrowed a friend's 1963 Chev Impala in '79 to take a girl her BF and her BFs date their HS senior prom. It was black on black all of the exterior chrome was replated in a gold tone. It had a '67 C10 front end suspension and sat up like a gasser or a truck. It was very impressive looking. It sounded good but was a slow. The car only had an aging 283 in it. I often wonder, whatever happened to that car. 🤔 Anyways the car you got there I love it.
Love the 63. Enjoy watching the lot walks & test drives. You all have so many cars & trucks I would love to have. Hope to make it down there & see everything in person. I live in Oh.
Love this 63 and the engine is so cool 😎, if I had the money I would buy the red 61 you have as well and swap power trains 👍 then 348 would be period correct and that red impala has a good 305 for the 63, either way thanks for the great cars at reasonable prices and your awesome 😎 videos, stay blessed.
I've been going through old videos! You all have sold so nice damn rides! I'm a chevy man and I'm partial to Chrysler, dodge products too! Would like to find a 71/72 chevelle reasonable price! Or 57 chevy at reasonable price! Don't have to be perfect neither 1 of them! All original if possible
348 was a late 50s motor does look just like a 409 has fender flags for a 327 I would check the rear frame rails had one in the early 70s frame broke after the body mounts behind the rear rear wheel
The things I would change about this car would be to "dechrome" the engine bay . Change those yellow plug wires. Find a og looking breather. Put on 12 volt alternator that looks like the old school generators. 🖤 Awesome ride ! 💢---------------------🏁
Why would someone put a 348 in a '63 Impala? Originally designed as a truck motor, that thing was a cast iron boat anchor. (I had one in a '60 Impala) A 327 would be lighter and much more reliable.
@@jkline3647 This car was likely powered by a small block originally. The cross flag emblems without the '409' script were assigned to cars with a 327.
they didn't. 348 was gone by the end of the 1961 model year. thiis car had a 409....someone removed it and replaced with the 348. itv was a common practice in the '60s
It needs to be taken to a competent exhaust shop, that is a poor job on that x frame. Using flex pipe is a big no no. 8:43
Engine choices in '63: 235,283,327 and 409. 348 was from '58 to 60 I believe.
348 was produced until 1961. gone by '62
😮👍🏽
@@jkline3647 Good call

I love the '63 Impala! I'm in the middle of a restoration of mine now...
Check out Waylon Wire’s 63 and its restoration from several years ago. His channel used to be called 63Impala2dr.
I’ve said this before, there is nothing more beautiful then the rumble of the old muscle cars, very nice car, love it
How did a 348 get into a 63? Also what is a W348?
@@SamLopezI Via an engine hoist.

At first glance I thought that baby was sporting a 409. Oh well. Still a beauty.

Beautiful car! Love a 4 speed
409/425 would make this a KILLER but better exhaust needed for sure.
Love your videos! Detail and everything you show of those classic cars! Keep up the awesome work!
Swap out the carbs for a couple of Holly Brawlers, and you will be all set. New belt too.
beautiful car.
She's a sleak beauty all black ! Presented in classy form without silly 22s or low rider.
Was the 348 still available in 63? Awesome anyway! She’s so fine with a 409 but it’s still great when you’ve got a 348!!!!!
348 was available until 61 in cars and 64 in trucks.
In in Costal Calif. Man, duel 4 bbl carbs, that''s a weekend warrior here at nearly 6 bucks a gallon. Sounds real nice tho.
Looking good with that baby W motor in it. Still has a good amount of torque!
WOW Super clean floors and X frame.
My first car and love a white 63/283 $550. I was 16 and now I'm 70. 54 years and many cars ago.
Had one of those as an 18 yo but with a 283. Nice ride, reliable, easy to work on.
Nice 63 love the wheels just need to get rid of the left side antenna
2 antennas are cooler than ice!

...because someone took the 409 out and replaced it with a 348. 348's were from 1958 to 1961 only.

348 motors were a dog they were a anchor
Nice !!!
Black beauty 😍👍
Too bad it's not an SS. Needs the console and bucket seats.
In my opinion the muscle car started in 63
I want it
Didn't know they made 348 in 63
The 348 was available in passenger cars until 1961. Trucks until ‘64.
My dad had a 1960 Impala with a 348
I know they 408 in 63 and in 64 there 348
Good call
they didn't. 348 was gone by the end of the 1961 model year. thiis car had a 409....someone removed it and replaced with the 348. itv was a common practice in the '60s
D@#$! This thing is clean❤️🔥 very sweet ride🤌🏼
Take off the carb and clean the ethanol green and you should be good
no...change to a stock camshaft and remove the 2x4 carbs.
How much
Some had 409 cid.
# 333 X 999 🎉
348 with 2 4s should have roasted the tires buy no all show and no go did look good could pass appearance of the 409
Bella.

Take. a lock in the windshield price is there!😅
THAT'S A SLEEPER 😴 GET UP AND GO O YA MAN 🤪 SWEETER THAN SWEET THIS BEAUTY IS QUITE THE MACHINE SUPERIOR IMPALA NICE CAR
348 1958 thru 1961
HINT,HINT HINY,BY 1963 THEY WETE ALL 409'S,CANT FOOL THIS CHEVY ENTHUSIAST.

👀👀👀🤯🏁
Get some Fords to sell !
Needs buckets and console can't stand bench seats.
Whats up with the 2 so called women always posting in the chat? Cant you block them?
I blocked them every day lol they make new accounts every day

Yes, there was audio at first, could have been u tube👍
Nice car Nick.
