My friend had a 62 Chevy with a 409 dual quads, and he would smoke the tires down the street. it was fast. I like the Chevy frontend looks? And I remember the old Chevy impala commercials back in the 1960's. American History! Bad Ride!

    For those lamenting the days when these cars were new, THESE modifications were not factory options and the car overall would have seemed noticeably cruder. I was born in '51 and lived through the '60s, and few then were actually fast. Many would lay down a good patch and seemed fast when riding in one with a valve-slappin,' gas-hog, 175 hp 4-bbl V8 bellowing and a skinny belted polyester tire squealing, but didn't have a high top end (although plenty fast enough to kill you; and don't get me started on the abysmal brakes or lack of safety features). But today they sure are cool and WAY FAST when they've had all THIS done to them! If you could buy something like this car then it would have to be an actual factory-backed NASCAR race car and cost about a million bucks.

    My very first car, inherited from my grandmother in 1970, was a white with red interior, bubble top, '62 BelAir (boy, could it get hot inside! like a greenhouse). But mine only had 235 cubic inches, backed by a two-speed slush-o-matic Powerglide. The body was excellent until my mother borrowed it to run to the store during a snowfall. That poor little tree made contact ever so gently between the right pair of headlights, never broke a bulb. Too poor at 16 to get her repaired, from then on it looked like Jason Momoa's eyebrow. Thanks mom.
