That was awesome, when I got home from Nam in Dec 69, I bought the exact same color 65 SS Impala but with an automatic, drove it straight to local speed shop and had cragar mags installed, like my current "yellow Chevy", I lowered it ASAP; brings back great memories !

Saw this on a Chevy commercial ~ teared up AGAIN!!
Way back when, I bought a 1950 Chevy for $50.00 used it to haul hay for the horses, climbed up on the fenders to ride bareback. Wish I could find that one again.
