[ratrodramblin]

wish i had a rod as nice as yours impala, all i need is time and a little dough...

[1963impala2dr]

@ratrodramblin ya just gotta want it real bad.. takes a lot more time than dough..

[19stoney64]

Hey 63, your voice sounds different than normal. Must of been using a different camera maybe? Higher pitch in voice. Maybe you had your voice change since you made this like all young men do! Haaa! Great ride!

[1963impala2dr]

@19stoney64 no, same camera but I was a lot younger back when I made "this" video! haha thats probably the difference.. now I'm old

[RedneckRecycling]

nice idea on them headlights !! great look!!

[1963impala2dr]

@RedneckRecycling thank you

[fencingderek]

i did not know piles of rust are street legal

[1963impala2dr]

@fencingderek have a nice day

[fencingderek]

@1963impala2dr i will and thank you

[jack9102]

@fencingderek wtf man go be miserable somewhere else... clearly you don't see the heritage and work this car has had done to it. i know some people see the streets filled with smartcars and stuff but these? there arent too many left and if he can make one legal, SWEET

[1973FordPinto]

@fencingderek ur a jackass

[1963impala2dr]

@miraclepieco I didnt say rusty fenderless cars are rare. I said original 1932 chevy engines are rare. 350's are a dime a dozen and red wheels are way over done dont you think? :) thanks for watching

[912nitro]

were in washington you from ?

[1963impala2dr]

@912nitro its all on my home channel  :)

[JJMWOOD]

very nice! would be pretty nice with a quite 350 sbc and nice auto trans but just my 2 cents hah but really nice project!!

[1963impala2dr]

@JJMWOOD dont get me wrong.. I'm a chevy man but 350 sbc's and "nice" auto trans's are a dime a dozen, ya know?.. If I go to a car show and see 300 cars, 280 will have sbc's... lol.. i'm pretty sick of them.

now..an original 1932 engine that runs like a top .... priceless!!!

[HATEIPODS]

how much did the rear lower when you took the 3 leafs out?

[1963impala2dr]

@HATEIPODS It only lowered it the thichness of the leaves I took out. it wasnt my intent to lower it. I just wanted to soften the ride a bit.

thanks for checking it out

[HATEIPODS]

ABSOLUTLEY SICK ROD MY FRIEND !!!

[JesseWLeek]

Mister that's 1 badazz machine. Kind of remind's me of Herman Munsters car. Can't wait to see it finished. I bet those 6 leafs made it ride like a hardtail scooter. I'll be checkin back on it. Great ideas with the chain, & the insulators.

[daytonpaul]

This vid made me want Chinese food maybe it was a word you said or something

[1963impala2dr]

@daytonpaul it was probably seeing the cat that did it

[daytonpaul]

@1963impala2dr You probably right it was subliminaly the cat because here in Dayton OH a year or so back they really did search a chinese restaurant and I kid you not they found a bunch of frozen cats ,the bad for me thing is I've ate there

[redsrat56]

@daytonpaul Damn ...so maybe that is where my cat went!

[NathansBackwoods]

@daytonpaul, it was when he said CHINK at 0:14...lol

[rpeek]

Dang! That looks good Ken. It's completely honkin!

[1963impala2dr]

@rpeek thanks Richard.. I was hoping to get a "honkin" out of ya!! haha

[mjmcomputers]

It's looking great, I like the insulator light idea. So, your first road trip is going to be done to Houston right??

[1963impala2dr]

@mjmcomputers haha.. maybe to the local cruise in.. probably not much further! 

[SoilentGr33n]

That microphone is just awesome. I don't think I'll ever say this enough.

The truck looks good, let's scare some motorists with it now

[1963impala2dr]

@SoilentGr33n we like the microphone and guitar neck.. thinking about some pin striping with a few music notes in it......

[hearsemonkey]

Those glass insulators will make awesome turn signals, can't wait to see them.

[Busia1949]

Looking good! Can't wait to go for a ride. I'll be over in a couple of hours...;)

I have enjoyed vicariously building your truck with you and will continue to enjoy each installment.

BTW, what is the status on your red Chevy pickup that had been hit?

Blessings,

George

[1963impala2dr]

@Busia1949 come on over! truck is still in the body shop.. the guy is taking his sweet time. I was down there today prodding him a bit. my truck has been gone since april 7th

[fretbuzz520y]

That looks awesome!

[1963impala2dr]

@fretbuzz520y thanks Trev..

[warnersteelsales]

Awesome. I know you don't like 'em, but I really like those big taillights. I agree that the torque tube/insulator turn signals will look great.

[1963impala2dr]

@warnersteelsales well, maybe if those lights were off an old school bus or something.. but they are just too "new" looking.. you sure can see them tho! haha

[949dk]

i think all it needs is a rattle can flat black paint job lol

[1963impala2dr]

@949dk NO WAY!!!!!!!! its perfect!!

[949dk]

@1963impala2dr lol it does look great like that

[vXTotalChaosXv]

Another step closer! Good job on the headlight mounts Ken, they look great. We need to get that thing in town and go for a cruise!

[1963impala2dr]

@vXTotalChaosXv that is going to happen soon I hope!

[ncautoman57]

Looks GREAT!!! I love the use of the chains.. I know you are thrilled to have it on the road. It has been fun watching the progress. I will be watching for more updates. Take care. Rich

[1963impala2dr]

@ncautoman57 yeah, its a lonnnnng way from done

[kgriggs75]

hot dog ken

[cappy6921]

sounds like its raining out,,better get er inside b4 she rusts,,LOL,,oh,,the headlight mounts are sweeet!

[cappy6921]

too kool,,but,, how did ya manage to legalize it w/out a windsheild??

[1963impala2dr]

@cappy6921 ok, street legal may be pushing it a little! lol. I still have to put the windshield in.. that will happen before it goes into town.. it might happen today!

[RamblinAround]

The chain was a great idea. I really like the glass insulators too. Man, it sure looks nice.

[modemeyes]

She looks good and I'm glad you've got it out on the road all legal...Mike

[blazerlover25]

[novelist10]
