ULTIMATE Collection of 1959 Chevrolets! Rare Chevys! + 1964 Impala FIRST DRIVE in 35+ Years!

I'm sure there will be others who say they have better collections of clean cars, and that's fine, there are many out there with beautiful collections, but for someone who started with 59 Chevys about 7 years ago, i have amassed some pretty rare and desirable cars, even if they aren't in the most pristine condition currently. This video features my original paint 2 door brookwood wagon, my original paint 1959 impala 2 door hardtop in cameo coral, a very rare car, a 348 3x2 factory 4 speed convertible, and the barn find hoard convertible that has been featured in many articles since it was found 2 years ago.
In addition, I also take the tornado-damaged 1964 impala for its first drive in over 35 years!
Thanks for watching!

That’s a stellar row of 59s bud. You need to win the lottery so you can restore them.

I never saw anyone detail the interior of a car missing half of it’s windshield. That’s enthusiasm!

i don't think i blinked once throughout your entire vid, lol
i am mesmerized.
huge huge huge GM fan and owner here. growing up we always had GMs, my grandad always had GMs as well. my first memory is our '58 Impala with the trailer hitch - we pulled our torquoise and white little trailer out to the lake each summer with that car. then we had a '62. then a '68. then a '69. and so on. our neighbours across the street had a copper-coloured '59 Biscayne 4-door with the huge pillars and a straight six, with three on the tree. it was beautiful but sucked wind, haha.
Grandad had a '59 Pontiac Laurentian. then a '64 Chev Bel Air. and so on. i've had Buicks, Oldsmobiles, Pontiacs and GM trucks. currently my 1975 Chev Caprice classic - convertible - is getting a ground up resto. should be ready for paint soon then a new top and interior. awesome vid. huge thumbs up.

The interior of the 1964 Impala is the most beautiful blue that I've ever seen. Amazing what a little cleaning up can do to a car. I love your 59 collection as well, it's one of my favourite 1950's cars, as it's one year younger than me.

1960s....are worth takin a look at as well!

I have a soft spot in my heart for a 59 Chevy, wagon or otherwise. My family had a 59 wagon and when I started driving I got it. I LOVED that car... still do. Never get rid of yours. I also had a 63 and a 64 Impala.

My Dad had a 59. After I was born, I was brought home from the hospital in a white 2 door 59, so it was my first ride in a vehicle. Maybe that's why I like them, plus I remember my Dad going fast and we had some old 8mm home movies 🎬 of it. My Dad is gone, so pretty much all I have is some hub caps that came on the 59. A badge of the twin flags one checker on the right, and the Impala on the left never used. Thank you for sharing your treasure
Someday, I ll have a 59

I'm so happy that you save old Chevy's. I love them from 55 to 67

When I was a kid (if you were a Chevy guy) you wanted a 55-57 Bel Air or a 62-64 Impala. In South Dakota I never saw a 58 Impala and the 59-61 Impala's were totally bypassed. I am sure a large number of 59-61 Chevys that were in good shape just got scrapped. My grandfather bought a new 59 Impala (yellow and green) 4-door. I have great memories of that car. Glad to see you are able to keep some of the 59's that are now far and few (and expensive). The blue interior really stands out on that 64. Enjoy all your episodes. Thanks.

Fantastic 59 collection. My favorite was the first 59 convertible you showed. I can hardly wait to see it fixed up to its original glory as you did with the first 59 you showed us. Beautiful collection.

Dig the wagon. Years ago I restored a Studebaker Lark 2 door wagon (1959), drove it for years. Black with red interior.

[JorgeDiaz-lyqp]

Your first '59 is definitely the belle of the ball. Of all the Bel Aire / Impala iterations, I share your love affair with the 1959's. Thanks for sharing!

[jrhayes]

Ryan, that is a awesome video of your cars . I've in been this group a long time and you have come such a long way . It's so good to see a young person with so much compassion in trying to save as many of these cars and give them life again. That's an awesome building you have. Ryan keep up with the good work that your doing bringing us the videos and sharing. I've been here in this group when at the time was a little over 6000 followers, boy look at how it has grown.

I personally love station wagons of all years and makes/models. The 1959 2-door station wagon is great.

[cbsctomh]

The red racoon Impala was the same color as my grandpa's '59 which was the first car I drove in 1971 at the age of 11. I drove it down the cow pasture to pick up wood for the kitchen stove . My pop and older brothers were in the car and we took turns. The car had a six with the powerglide and the odometer had rolled over twice.

[danswartwood]

Nice 64 Impala Ryan, my brother had a 64 Biscayne in the mid sixties. It had a 283 with a three on the tree, those were the days. Thank you for sharing.

[mykline]

I love the 59's. I had one in the late 60's with the 348 tri power and a 3 speed on the floor. Went in the Army in 1968 and my parents sold the car when I went overseas. Still miss that car until this day.

[johnbehneman]

Great video Ryan!!!! I LOVE YOUR 59 COLLECTION!!! Thanks for sharing and I love your channel.

[petecunnien]

My favorite of your 59 collection is definitely the 2 door wagon, that things is just super cool!!

[francisjaniewski]

Gorgeous collection of 59s. Any year older than 70 Impala is a good year! I have a 67 Caprice project car from Washington state.
