In 1966, after his Corvair was stolen, my father purchased a 1966 Caprice (327) from Angelus Chevrolet in Highland Park CA. My brother and I learned to drive in that land yacht. My mother drove that car for years until she gave it to my younger brother. Some time in the early 90s, a little old lady sideswiped my brother and our beautiful Caprice was no more. 😔

My dad bought a new ‘66 Marina Blue Impala sedan 283 powerglide. Learned to drive in that car in 1972. Great car, great memories.

When I was 11 yrs old my Dad traded his 61 Impala and bought a new 65 Caprice, Maroon with a Black vinyl top. It came with pwr windows, pwr seat and a am/fm 4 speaker stereo. What a difference from a AM radio with one speaker. My sisters and I thought it was a Caddy with the comfy cloth seats and the fold down rear armrest. Way too cool, this was not another Impala! He ordered the go fast 396 engine with a turbo trans which my 18 year old sister lit up the tires more than once. What memories, would love to have that car today!

@johneddy908 Год назад

I'm sure that had to be GM's Turbo Hydra-Matic transmission, which was still new at the time, especially to Chevrolet.

My parents owned a Caprice that Burgundy with a black vinyl top and black bucket seats. It was Gorgeous ❤.

@robinfreese126 9 месяцев назад

I found one in a barn, I purchased it and haven't got it going yet. It got 39000 miles on it. It's an original 396, 4 speed, 12 bolt rear end. Some rust but good bones.

My uncle Al had a red ‘66 impala with the 396 V8 and a very smooth ride as well…

@stevegordon5243 Год назад

I had a '66 Impala Super Sport with a 396. The car had lots of power but man was it ever hard to start in cold weather. Wish I still had it though

@Fred-gi4uz Год назад

I drove a ‘66 caprice super sport to high school loved that car

This Body Style, introduced in 65, was such an Improvement, it really upgraded Chevy

@chriswright2250 Год назад

Dad had a green 66 4 door Belair. Had that car 15 years. Great car.

@franksanfilippo5148 11 месяцев назад

My first car was a '67 greenish blue Belair. Very reliable car, but it was the only car I ever owned that didn't have power steering or power brakes!

A friend of mine had found a Marina blue "SS" Convertible , through an older co-worker in about 1986. It was a base 283 , power glide car. it was rough from northern Illinois winters. He drove it home with only one brake working. Ripped his pants on the seat springs. When he got back to his trail park, he went over the speed bump and lost the gas tank. He fixed it up with the money he has, replaced the bad engine with a 350. It wasn''t perfect,. But I ended it up with it, I sold it in 2016.

I bought a’66 Impala from an Orange grove owner in central Florida in 1982. The original 283 w/ 3 on the tree worked great. Plus the optional cable operated Overdrive made it a great highway cruiser.

@scumber56 Год назад

My grandfather had a 66 Caprice.

@rightlanehog3151 Год назад

I have Caprice tastes with a Biscayne budget. 😁

@irocitZ Год назад

Me too but slightly different, my taste is Impala SS427 with a SS283 budget. Even the 283 version has gotten pricey, ugh...😒

@rightlanehog3151 Год назад

@@irocitZ I would want a two-tone wagon with a small V8 that could run on regular. They were probably not available with a floor shift manual but I would like to dream.

@irocitZ Год назад

@@rightlanehog3151 back then or now? As you probably know wagons these days aren't cheap either, I like them too. I can't say I've ever seen a SW with a manual on the floor but I'd think it's possible. I wouldn't be surprised, you could always change one over. I saw a mid 60s Volvo Hurse with a manual on the floor at a car show, just that one time though.

@rightlanehog3151 Год назад

@@irocitZ My comments are nostalgic not a reflection on today's overpriced collector cars. There may not have been a full size Chevy wagon in the 1960s with a floor shift but the Chevelle wagon could be equipped with one. Somewhere on RU-vid there is a GM video advertising their 1964 Chevelle "Bachelor wagon".

@irocitZ Год назад

@@rightlanehog3151 since you bought up the crazy prices of classic cars, I've been trying to figure out why that is. I have a couple decent cars now but what I'd really like to get is through the roof price wise, that would be any late 60s early 70s muscle car, besides Barrett Jackson I found out that some consignment classic car dealers are also part of the reason/problem why average run of the mill muscle cars are twice or even 3 times what they should be. I found out they put huge commissions on cars therefore hyper inflating cars that you or I might be interested in, check out ļ I l l

Great vid!!!

@kirbywaite1586 Год назад

It always amazed me that the Caprice Coupes had a top that was exclusive and not shared with any other GM product. Even the much more expensive Coupe Deville had to share the greenhouse with Oldsmobile and Buick! It all comes down to sales volume.

@johneddy908 Год назад

Impala also had a Custom Coupe with the same roofline as Caprice two years later.

@SpockvsMcCoy 2 месяца назад

Despite the minor styling update and expansion of the Caprice models, sales of these full-size 1966 Chevrolets dropped by 150,000 units to 1.5 million units for the model year. After the record breaking 1965 model year, sales of the full-size Chevrolet would continue to drop over time as more customers migrated to mid-sized and sporty "pony cars". The full-size 1966 Ford remained the second most popular new car.

@seanbatiz6620 Год назад

I found it interesting that the closing line of, “The Thrill of The Year…” as that was used by Buick for 1955 as well as several many other years.. has me kind’a wondering what year Buick stopped using that ad slogan?

@dave1956 Год назад

Can I order one at my local Chevrolet dealership?

@jendel42750 Год назад

If cars were people, the Caprice SS was like Muhammed Ali in a three-piece suit: big, handsome, and FAST!

my dream garage 66 caprice custom coupe and a 66 Corsa convertible

@johneddy908 Год назад

Caprice took over from Impala as the top-of-the-line full-size Chevrolet in 1966.

@joserobinson8419 9 месяцев назад

So 66 caprice had an optional 396 or 427 ?

“The can be key can be removed only when turned into the off position” they just happened to say that as I stuff my key in my pocket while l let the car warm up

Our ‘66 GTO has been the same way for decades. I remember my dad doing the same thing when I was a kid, decades ago.
