Hey guys I thought I would post up a few pictures of a car that I have had for about 10 years. The first picture is a before picture and what I have turned it into. let me know what you think.

geezer#99 · 02-02-2011, 07:03 PM

AWESOME!!!!
One of my favorite body styles. When I was 15ish a young guy down the street had a new factory 396 4 speed black 66 2 door like that. DROOL!!!!

CAL 58 GMC · 02-02-2011, 08:39 PM

Very nice!!! Looks like you did a great job, somthing to be proud of for sure. I love the color too.

**Dieselwrencher** · 02-02-2011, 09:23 PM

Very nice! Great transformation too! You sure don't see many of them around anymore for sure.

71swb4x4 · 02-02-2011, 09:47 PM

Did it come from the factory with the four speed and 427? What a kickass way to order the car, the stripped down full-size car with the most powerful powertrain.

884x4Sub · 02-03-2011, 12:02 AM

awesome car!!

93Z71 · 02-03-2011, 12:25 AM

Make me want to convert my 66 Bel Air to a 2 door and throw a V8 in.

kyull67 · 02-03-2011, 05:39 PM

Restrorob · 02-05-2011, 10:04 PM

Awesome transformation and DIG that blue !!!

tcb-1 · 02-05-2011, 10:51 PM

loves me some Bisquick!!

100%Chevy · 02-06-2011, 09:25 PM

That's a NICE looking car!
Very clean rebuild!(I bet it's PDQ too!)
Plus,I'm a little bias'ed,because I have a 65 Caprice,350/350(with 65 Bel-Air parts car) and a 67 Impala,454/400(with a 67 Impala parts car).Total of 4!
Love those 65/66/67 fullsize Chevies!
Mike.

**CMACDONALD1** · 03-15-2011, 06:08 PM

Thanks for all the compliments guys. I just put some old school torque thrusts on thought they look pretty good but let me know what you think.

hotrodhomi · 03-15-2011, 06:22 PM

I love that blue. I have a '66 impala in the garage that has been patiently waiting its turn as I collect parts.

1tonjimmy · 03-15-2011, 07:17 PM

Much better with the TQ Thrust wheels. IMO

I have always liked the 65's (cool car you had). Yeah I have sold a few that I wish I could have kept but usually it was only to buy something else that I liked more at the time. When I bought the Biscayne I was not even looking for one of these cars but the deal was just way to good to pass up. I only planned on keeping it for a while and then re selling but the car just kept growing on me and one of my good friends told me I was crazy for selling such a cool car and it would be one that I regretted. I believe it was 2001 when I purchased the car and have turned every nut and bolt on it so I know what I have now and the car gets driven lots.

best upgrade I have ever done. Shifts awsome and settles right down on the highway for some long cruises 2200 rpm at 70mph.

Heavy Evy · 03-21-2011, 08:47 PM

I love full size chevs and that 427 is my favorite bbc! I really wanted my dad's 67 2 door impala but he was in a tight spot and had to sell it when I was 18

**CMACDONALD1** · 07-12-2011, 07:26 PM

A couple more pics of the Biscayne with its new wheels.
