Barn Find All Original 1958 Chevy Impala Sport Coupe: Chip's Garage Episode 27 

Nice car and color

All 58s had dual headlights. This car is a "Bel Air" Impala. The first year, Impala was an upgraded Bel Air.

Love it same age as me. I don’t know nothing about them now. Thank you

The 58 Impala was only available in 2 door hard top or convertible.

I always liked the 58 better than the 57. The 57 seemed to be more popular, but not to me. But loved many of the 50's cars. 57 Ford was one of my favs.

1958 was the first model year that dual headlights were legal in all 48 states. Consequently almost all cars had them. We were going into a recession in late 1957 so that’s one reason they didn’t sell many Impalas.

hey whatdya got in there kid? "More than u can handle!"

My brother who is 14 yrs. Older than me had a 58 impala awsome car i was about 8,9 yrs. Old he sold that to buy a 62 black on black corvette im 65 now but i remember those days like it was yesterday!!!!!

paint it white like steves in AG

Also the red part on the door panel was a reflector, not a light. The rear speaker was an option, not standard, there would have been a knob on the right side of dash like this one. The ‘59 had the big fins, by 61 the fins were gone. Also 1948 was a recession year, most car companies took a hit in 1958. And you also could have optioned a fuel injected 283

Beautiful Chevy !

Love it !! IMHO, the 58' is the best looking Impala Chevrolet ever built.

oooooooooooo had me fooled im just reading the close captions🤣😆😁

"i wont report u this time--just watch it, mister!!!!!"

Great looking old chevy, I was really expecting to see a tri-power under the hood.

Beautiful car I have a 58 Delray in rust free condition but I replaced the single bowl master cylinder very dangerous to a dual bowl

" i aint nobody, dork"

Wow!! What a great find! BTW... Pontiac and Oldsmobile had similar indicator/running lights and very dissimilar to the Chevy that year

Wished that I could get My hands on one as was always one of My favourite cars right from a Child as My parents Friends used to have one & had many trips with them in it.

sooooooooooooo there really is a full-time crew! And that blonde looks like shes the boss

In 1958 my dad purchased his first brand new car which was a 1958 Ford Fairlane 2dr hard top and years later he said he messed up and should have bought a 1958 Chevrolet Impala !

Actually the front lower light is outboard bulb if turn and park light. Inside was blank, with a flat blanking piece

3 PIECE BUMPERS WERE ILLEGAL IN CA. THEY FIGURED THE WERE WEAK AND NOT STRONG ENOUGH, SO ALL 57s AND58s MADE IN CA. had 1 piece bumpers.

The rumors about the 1959 & 60 gull wing fins on the Biscayne to impala Chevrolet full size vehicles, allegedly lifting the rear wheels off the ground at 80 plus mph is nothing more than an urban legend. Chevrolet and General Motors would never have been permitted to release such an uncontrollable aerodynamic anomaly to the public! I believe that rumor was started by rival companies like Ford or Chrysler, who still had their upright fins during that period. In 1961, however, automobile manufacturers stopped using their attractive fins and chrome because of aerodynamics and weight reduction needed for speed increases in the cars they were using in Nascar.

get ready to pick laurie up tonite--oh, sorry, shes got her OWN car🤣😂🙂🙃

u guys got all the good shit

our autorama here over the weekend was quite impressive--the IX center is huge--but i got no questions about my 5--i think ill get a vespa instead

" i just love tuck and roll"

I found a couple 58 Bel Air sedans for sale in 2017. 2 cars for $3k, One was complete and ran off auxilary tank the other had already gotten new floors and the body/frame was solid w/ no drivetrain. I frame off restored the better car and used all the parts from the complete car to finish it, I love the 58 body style. Even the 4 door looks good to me and it was more affordable to own for sure. I put a 68 396 BBC w/ 700 R4 in it.

chips using his hands more than Steve hmmm must be contagious

I am the guy on the lefts grandson YOUR FAMOUS

The front suspension was used on corvette up to and including 1982!

The uncle made 33% on The resale, not 25%

Wow

The Eldorado Cadillac had those headlights too.

Wonderful overall, shame under the hood. Keep it original yes, do a clean up on engine and engine bay.

I gotta save up for one

excuse me, i think wevd had an accident

A Nice Looking 1958 Chevrolet Impala wouldn’t you say?

The 57 was always real popular but I always thought that one and thec1960 beat the 57 all to hell.

ALL 58 IMPALAS WERE HARDTOPS, NO SEDANS IN THE IMPALA LINE, AND NO 4 DOOR IMPALAS EITHER, THEY CAME ALONG IN 59.

Would be great if you did an update on the Graffiti Coupe with your changes since buying it. Great Channel.

" College? hey man thats for nerds" HAAAAAAAAAAAA The nerds have all the money now😅🤣😂🙃🙃

my one car buddy just tweeted " i wouldnt be caught going to a funeral in that thing" Hey, boys, be nice here!!!!

Most every car went to dual headlamps in 58

Sounds/looks like an Infomercial

Looks like a Delray trim

this chip guy has the milner 32, hes got a 56 that he's going to make into a 55, and now he has a 58--what the hell????He's probably setting out to get an Edsel, Vespa, and then make American Graffitti #3 Ill apply for the Mystery Blonde in the tbird

why the funky wheels----keep it original

Let me know if ya wanna sale this 58 chevy impala

so is every car that hasnt been restored now a (Barn Find) ????

Stop yapping and show the car already. MoPar guys seeing quality for first time ❗️🇺🇸

These guys are really foaming over this car but forgot that this styling was based on the M-B “Gull Wing”.

get out the saw🤣😂🙂🙃😊

Nothing more irritating than two guys that that have knowledge and talk over one another to show how much they know, or think they know. Case in point on the passenger side rear the tear in the quarter panel sheet metal by the bumper. This damage was more common than most people think. If your car was bumped from behind or you backed into something , the rear bumper would be pushed into the quarter and tear the sheet metal then return to the original position. Ask me how I know? This is a great find and this car with a little work can be returned back to it's original glory.

Re: of the two small lights on the front of the car. One was a fake, for symmetry only. The other was a combination turn/parking light. There were no “running lights” lights on a 58 Chevy. God…these two guys are annoying as all hell?

Where are the original wheels, it would look nicer.

Why are they both talking at the same time? AAF.😮

" a 58 chevy? EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW"

T don't know why they wouldn't have sold a lot of 58s. But the 64 my opinion uglier than hell.

Why are they shouting at each other?

So much misinformation in this video. 1) The front turn signal/parking light was in the outboard location only. The inner lens was non-functional. 2) the wing windows had no power option. 3) the front seat shells are chromes steel; not stainless steel. 4) that red lens on the door is a reflector and not a light. 5) wires had been plastic-coated for years prior to 1958. "1000% original" despite having ass-ugly wheels replacing the hard-to-find original wheels.

Chevrolet outsold ford in 1958

OK Boomers...

Narrative leaves a lot to be desired. Car guys know all they are babbling o and on about .all cars f had quad headlights starting in 58 models. Of course no air bags. Duh.

Its original except for the add ons and replacement stuff. But other than that.
