Things have certainly changed from the day when the best of 409s barely ever saw 11.99! And that SURE ain’t no BW T10!😂😂😁😁🤓😎👴🏻

That's a beautiful bad ass car !!

I love it. I had 3 different 409's back in the day, I am a fan, Many thanks.

Damn that car leaves well, and runs perfect.

I had a 61. 62. 63 Chevy impala great cars the 283. And 327 we're powerful the only problem was with the rear end housing the upper support which was only one after drag racing would break loose from frame

One badass Bel Air!

My first car was a 1965 impala SS convertible stick with buckets, black 😊 oh yeah I got the car free from a service station that took it from a dead beat customer 😊 he removed the 327 and the box, so I took it to my high school auto shop , and put in a dual quad 409 😊😊

Beautiful car set up right in every way

What a fun weekend!! I have a few shots of you also Dave 😁🤘

Sweet video John.

SO COOL I GOTS A WOODNESS

The way it should be !!

Yeah buddy!!!!! Thanks for the ride 👍👍🇺🇲

So awesome to see it running again

Awsome!!😊

Back in high school I drove a mint condition 13,000 original miles 63 Biscayne, but it only had a 230 six in it. Every Camaro, mustang, and challenger on the road would try to race me, and just take off laughing. One day a friend of mines cousin came to visit and had an almost identical looking 63 impala with a heavily massaged 409 in it. When he took me for a ride, this same guy in his Camaro that had been harassing me pulled up beside us reving his engine. Ole boy had a three on the tree, through that beast up in second and I swear it almost lifted the whole right side of the car off the ground. After that no one ever messed with my 63 again!

Dambit that was sweet 😂❤

Love it! Is it a built 409? Or a different engine?

Fine footage...

Never been a chevy fan, except for a few select years or engines. I was only turning 7 when my aunt ordered her '62 Impala 409 4-speed. 1st service job the plug was left out, dude left the shop for something, burnt the engine. As constant customers that were now MAD the dealer put in a 409hp replacement he'd just got in for an order, said that guy could wait. My aunt, likely never spun a tire in snow with that car, but my cuz and I could appreciate what it was even with her granny driving. Do wish she'd of just loaned it to my mom atleast once for a grocery store run, we'd of found out what it would do. Mom had no worries about driving a car at what it could do, my friends always wanted rides home with me and mom. She had her '63 Galaxie 500 XL 427 4-speed at that same time.

Thanks that was awesome!!! What transmission is that?😎🏆

Well you already know this is one of my favorites. Tammy definitely had a tasteful vision for her build. 😎

So damn cool to be there for this! I sure hope they return next year!

Awwww. I remember when Curt Landis lived across Hall Blvd from Russ Chevrolet. Fired up his Chevelle once in a while and then he pulled hooligan moves in whatever truck he had in the lot next to his house…

Top qualifiers!! You are all #1 in my book!
