The reaction he has. "That's my Chevy" that's what's car companies are missing today. A car isn't just wheels and an engine to get you around. It's something that it represents. The fun the excitement the thrill and family that you build in that car. This what we need to go back to. Building something that transcends the years and takes you back to a moment of happiness

True. Stuff built today looks like everything else - like it's punched out of a cookie cutter.

You couldn’t have said it better! Cars used to have individual personalities.

@kenyoung5604 8 ай бұрын

Yes. You are so correct! A car IS more than just wheels (and onboard computers these days). I drive a 2010 Chevy van. I like it and it serves me well. But I also drive a 2004 Suzuki Jimny. It’s a little 4x4. Just driving it to the grocery store puts a GIANT smile on my face! Just looking at it reminds you of all the “stuff” my wife and I have done in it (get your minds out of the gutter. The Jimny is too small for that if your 60+). It’s also easy to service for a DIY guy. I wish cars could be like this again. Chevy is coming up with great commercials. Now they need to build a product that matches the marketing.

Few people know how much of a styling genius GM Design Chief Bill Mitchell was. These were gems!

@Meridian83West Жыл бұрын

Absolutely. In the 60's Bill Mitchell managed to wean the public away from that box-on-a-box look that was so typical of many cars then and more toward a one-piece, smooth look like the 1966 Oldsmobile Toronado. When my uncle got his '65 Impala (SS 327) it was like nothing else I'd seen!

@robjaimes8830 Жыл бұрын

Starting in 1959, Mitchell’s Chevy design team punched the wheelbase out to 119 inches and designed the big Impalas, each unique up until the mid-70’s, with near-perfect power trains for their size, comfortable interiors, and each one seemingly more stylish and advanced than the previous one. These are American classics. I’m looking at ‘61 bubble tops for purchase at the moment.

@rockguitarist931 Жыл бұрын

Bill Mitchell styled some of the best looking cars ever, even in the heart of the smog era he was styling bangers like the '73 Monte Carlo or the clamshell wagons.

My dad traded in his 1963 square back Galaxie Custom R-Code 427 dual quad, 4- speed, 4:11 rear gear, black with red interior for a 4-door 62 Pontiac and twin boys in August 1964. My dad was my hero and always will be. His family was more important. Of all the 1963 / 1963-1/2 Galaxie's built with 427 dual quad engines, his Custom trim level was the lowest production number built with that option. Would have been worth over $150,000 grand. Miss you dad.

I'm not a ford guy nor dodge but out of respect towards anyones upbringings, It's good to see a family and person stay loyal to a brand that took care of them.

As a Chevy guy now, my brother and I have been on a search our Dad’s old 71 Mopar. We grew up hearing stories of that car, but despite the old mans best efforts, we became Bow tie guys. But for his 60th birthday, I’d give anything if I could find, buy, and give my old man his old Charger back as a thank you for being such a great dad, and for making me a car guy. Chevy does run deep, and being a car guy runs even deeper. I cry every time I watch this.

Love these commercials, including the new one with the 1966 Impala SS! Back in the late 70s my father and I began a Chevrolet odyssey by cutting our restoration teeth on a 1954 Chevy Bel-Air. Problem was, it wouldn't start easily after it warmed up! I told Dad I couldn't rely on that car for my day-to-day needs. He tracked down a car for me within our extended family...a 1965 Impala convertible! Loved that car! Unfortunately it was stolen just before my senior year at LSU. When I retired in 2019, I found a '65 SS Impala here in Cheyenne. It's sitting in my garage now. Godspeed all!

Just sitting behind the wheel of my blazer I instantly go back to my childhood. You just don’t get the same connection with newer cars. I never want anything new. I traded it for a 2010 escape with way less problems than this blazer and I still don’t regret it one bit.

The truck has only been in our family since new and will always be. It took me years to convince him to sale it to me and he finally did last year. The truck is all original and has never been in an accident but worked hard as his welding truck and took many family road trips all over the US and Mexico for almost 30 years and is aged. Well I can keep going on but my plan is to fully restore it soon and give him the surprise of having his truck like the day he picked it up at the GMC Truck dealer here in San Antonio, Tx.

My dad's dream was an Olds Rocket Motor powered car - he achieved THAT just before he passed away (at 31). My uncles were a BIG influence growing up (they owned a Carpet Installation Business during *probably* the best times for that business). Mr. Norm's Grand Spaulding Dodge is credited with starting the "Van Craze" - my Uncle's did ALL the work for *THAT*. They were both heavy Mopar enthusiasts: Uncle Ronnie bought a '70 Challenger RT/SE 426 Hemi (for his wife to drive) - yeah, right. Uncle Paul had a '69 Super Bee with the 440 6-pack, then traded that in for the '72 Demon GSS (340 ci Paxton Super Charged) monster (Norm warned him that they wanted to only do automatics, but my uncle insisted on having a 4 speed). I've listened to when my uncles and their friends would get together, and eventually, it'd get around to cars that they'd wished they'd kept. I listened - never get rid of a car you have an emotional attachment to. I still have my '65 GTO Convertible from High School - my 1st Love.

One of my Uncles on my dad's side (he married one of my Dad's sisters), sold insurance in the small town they grew up in, always had cars that I was impressed with (even as a youngster). Uncle Ed (because of the 6 or so kids he had), bought Station Wagons - with the BIGEST MOTORS OFFERED - 427, then 455 (I don't think my cousins realized it until I pointed it out.
