64 Impala Over River Road/with Sountrack

Driving to the off-leash dog park at Minto-Brown Island Park in Salem, Oregon from Independence via River Road. The road parallels the Willamette River most of the way and has lots of twists, turns, dips and humps. The car is Betty, my '64 Chevrolet Impala 4-door hardtop. Original 327 V-8 (4-barrel Rochester 4GC, dual exhaust, 250 HP), Powerglide automatic, factory A/C, 175,000 miles. I added a soundtrack, "Let it Ride" by Bachman-Turner Overdrive.

If you look at my video, '64 Impala Tour, you'll see that I have a modern stereo, complete with an iPod jack, hidden under the dash behind a dealer-installed tissue dispenser. The Custom AutoSound decks still don't look like the original factory radios. So I've kept the original Delco AM radio in the dash.

I enjoyed the video. Nicecar too. I love impalas Truly. I'm a GM man as well. I do atm own a 57 fairlane. wellits the Custom, shorter version 2 door. I love drivin it daily to Honor the classics and it makes me feel kinda like your video did. I'll have to make me a vid like that. And of course, site yours, in appretiation of the idea lol. I dont have power steering though. Dont get me wrong... 54000 original miles, it drives VERY well. But that thing looks like it drives like a dream!

It does. Power steering is definitely nice to have in a car this size. My brother-in-law has a '55 Olds 88 without power steering. It's OK driving along, but murder to try to park.

I drive the car enough that I can automatically compensate for the slow-geared steering. It actually has decent feel for an early PS system.
