Will It Run?!? 1965 Chevrolet Impala SS Resurrection! Parked for several years in a Barn!

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

I snagged this 1965 Impala up to get it running for a customer. It sounds like it was parked 3 or 4 years ago. Usually that means 10 years. So who knows what we'll find?!? It's a super clean 1965 Impala SS 2 owner car. 327 automatic with POWER WINDOWS! It's also got add on aftermarket air conditioning as well. Let see if we can get this one back on the road! This is not my car so it is not for sale at this time. Thanks for watching!

It's all clear so I can see fluid moving or bubbles, plus it's heavy and stable so I don't tip it over, plus it holds a lot. Also - I used my trained alligator to press the pedal. Because Florida.

    Cool video Mortske. That would be worth fixing up for sure. Not many fully optioned barn find 65 SS's around these days in great condition. Sucks it has a slip & slide Powerglide instead of a 4 speed but the floor shift and console are neat. Might not loose the shop after all huh?. Back in the 70's I had a 65 a 2 door Chevy Biscayne. 2 tail lights on each side. Primer black. Shot green interior. No carpet. If I recall right it had a 283 in it. The air cleaner lid was flipped over. Good for another horse or two. Three on the tree. Fun car. Bought for $75 bucks off a scrap dealer in the red light district of Tempe Az close to Arizona State University. Like everything else I've had over the years they wind up being donors for some rod I was building. That was a nice 53/54 Ford. Until next time.

    Sorry to disappoint Mort, I put a glasspack on everything. Just cut a rattly Flowmaster off my '83 Chevy to put on a glasspack. FYI you should be mighty scared of those tires, at 34:31 I see a date code of 1101, 11th week of 2001! But don't feel bad, my '83 Chevy C20 has tires from 2003! ... But they're 6 or 8 ply or some such heavy duty nonsense so they'll probably last until 2043, not that I'm not planning on replacing them, I was doing 70 coming home on those tires! SKEEEETCH!
