This old impala is coming up nice mate, wife has a 67 Australian rhd I've just pulled off the road because they did a terrible restoration on it. Lots of parts in the dash are the same but all Australian delivered impalas use a 66 dash for Rh drive. Just finished the brakes on my old Chrysler regal se Aussie built Mopar then I'll put the impala in the garage. Need to drive the Chrysler anyway. I must say I'm very happy with the 327 I built , just used Edelbrock heads, air gap and 220 Lunati voodoo cam. Would give my LS1 an ass kicking. Stock gears to but T350, goes so well I don't want to take it off the road for 6 months. Needs the windscreen channel replaced for sure and behind the fenders looks bad . She bought this unseen but we have very few impals in Australia. Keep the work coming, that beast is looking great.

Your videos have been a great help with my car. I have a '70 impala, and mostly everything is the same minus a few designs. From the engine stuff to brake lines, etc. Cali must be so much easier to get parts, I'm in New England and it's devoid of impala/caprice parts.

Yea, we’ll California is pretty much the lowrider state so any 4dr impala becomes a parts car, so it’s easy to find parts,

I was just thinking to comment the other day and ask when a new impala video was coming. They have all been very helpful. I'm going to make a video soon just showing the progress on mine so far.

I haven’t had time to film on the impala because I’ve been working on a stubborn ski boat that doesn’t want to be on the water, but I’m getting back on the car, I’ll be sure to go check out ur vid

Very Helpful I have a 66 4 Door, I wish you would’ve showed everything down to speedometer install.

I didn’t do the speedometer because I got to take the dash back apart to paint the inside so I can install my new American auto wire harness I got

There is no bracket for the climate controls It takes a Hex head body style bolt (2) to hold it in. Be careful the frame of the controls are pot metal and can break easily if you put too big of bolt in there. Good luck

Thanks for the info, I’m just going to use a nut and bolt so I don’t break anything

Is it possible to just take out the cluster without taking the dash all apart? I want to remove mine to clean it and do some minor repairs. Thanks! Great video!

Not sure, I haven’t installed my cluster yet

I would look out for major rust on body and frame, make sure it hasn’t been in any major accidents that could have bent the frame, other than that u can get most of everything at classic industries

I think floors aren’t too hard to replace, the rear quarter panels on the other hand take a little more work and time
