THIS purchase has been YEARS in the making, having been a fan of the CW TV show Supernatural one of the stars you see in basically every episode is the 1967 Chevy Impala 4 Door also known as Baby... and we're going to build one!
A little back story for those who aren't familiar with this particular car. In the TV show it has basically become the "trusty steed" of Sam and Dean Winchester as they go about their Family Business of Saving People, Hunting Things. With a distinctive big block chevy rumble and the sounds of squeaking doors the boys ride from coast to coast plying their trade and pulling from an almost endless bag of evil destroying weaponry they have stashed in the trunk.
So what are WE starting with, well as you'll see in the video it's not EXACTLY perfect and complete. There is a bit of work to be done, and we aren't afraid to do it though let's be honest this is going to be a long term project car not a quick one week wrench.
Also as you can tell, I'm a liiiittle excited personally to be able to bring of these classic american cars back to life, and something completely outside our normal muscle car stuff! In its current original state this car was a 327 small block car with a 2 speed powerglide transmission, but in order to be a true "Hero" car like the big block Baby is we're going to have to go with something a little bigger and meaner... but FIRST have to get it loaded and back to our shop in Columbus Ohio to take stock of where we are starting from and get moving!
We hope you all enjoy this journey with us and will subscribe to see it come together! For all of our recent subscribers welcome to our little mechanic world, we hope you enjoy what we do! As always, comments and suggestions are welcome!
