I purchased a '65 in 1989 at age 14 for $600. Still cruise in it today, 33 yrs later. My friends and family helped with the frame-off restoration that took 20 yrs. Totally worth it!

While I came here to see the car, which is very nice, what impressed me most is how close your family is. 2 fine sons, I'm sure, and nice to know they care about the car as much as you. This being 2022, I hope you and the family are doing well and that the car is still a part of your life. Take care.

I agree...thank you 06molly for your service to our great country. You have a really nice classic and I hope you have many years of fun with her. I am a big Chevy fan but I couldn't afford the Impala I wanted. I did find a low-mileage rust free very clean '69 Corvair Monza, one of the last ones built before the shut the line down. I drive her daily and she gives me lots of pleasure behind the wheel. Thanks for your video!...Bill H.

I bought a 65 Impala SS from a local Chevy dealership in 1973 , very low miles , asking price was ( as I recall ) like 1595.00 , payment was 36.00 a month for 5 years , mine had the 396/375 horse motor with the 3 speed auto , turbo 400 I believe , only thing I did to it was replace 2.63 gears with a 4.56 gear a B and M shift kit ,, appliance headers and traction bars , , it was a very strong street performer . Red /white leather interior , unfortunately, a “good deal “ on a 69 Mach 1 caused me to let this beautiful car go , as I see today , big mistake , live and learn, That is a beautiful 65 , and thank you for your service .

This was the first car my wife and I had. I traded it in for a VW my wife could handle while I was in Vietnam. I still think it was one of the sleekest looking cars Chevy ever had. I have looked at purchasing one for fun but the wife (the same one) said she would buy me a model instead 😊

Hi Dennis...It is a great story of yours and your great passion for that beauty. If I had hats that much like yours, they'd be off for you. What a car it is...I'm 58 and those are the "loud" reminders of my childhood, despite we mostly had 4 door sedan models, never seen an SS in real life. These are the kind of cars that you can't find a single point to make a sentence starting as "It would be better if....". Flawless lines, charming, so simple yet so elegant. Man, in my eyes they never looked they're running on their wheels but floating down the road. Wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year with your familiy and....with that beauty. All the best from Istanbul. (sorry, kept it too long)

When the '65s first came out, I didn't particularly like them compared to the boxy '64s, but now I appreciate the "Coke bottle" sleekness of the new body design! Of course I was only 11 at the time, so what does a kid know?
