I remember our 1960 Chevrolet station wagon we used to pile in the back and off we would go. No seat belts. it had a 283 cu. in w/ a slip and slide power glide 2 speed auto trans. Loved the three bullet tail lights in the back on ea. side

Those 1957 Pontiacs are great looking cars. Compared to the tri-five Chevrolets, they are still definitely overlooked as classics.

Enjoyed the video, but did not see any Corvairs.

The car shown has body panels all out of alignment

Junk then, even worse now. Give me a 65 Biscayne with a straight six any day.

My dad worked for a spell as a transmission inspector at a GM (or sub-contracted) plant in the 50s. He said the workers had a quota for each shift and would rush to get it done. When my dad rejected the bad transmissions, they started hiding his tools.

Wished they'd gave it a better name that was not spanish influenced

Mar del Plata, Buenos Aires. Argentina. My dad's 1946 Chevrolet passenger bus with a 1958 Chevrolet Stovebolt 235 on it. Still eager to run... every time I turn it over, even after 66 years of hard labour. A workhorse of a unit, a smooth operator. That's why I'm here, this man's legacy. Thank you for uploading. 🙏🏻

WHERE WAS THIS COMMERCIAL DONE AT THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL TOUCH HOW CHEVROLET'S WERE ADVERTISED THAT'S THE BEST OF ALL MOST GORGEOUS 65 CHEVROLET IMPALA SWEET MEMORY

Didn't see any Corvairs. Am sure the workers in this video were told to come in dressed for the movie.

Birth of Ramone Cars

I am going to the Chevrolet dealership today to buy a brand new 1956 Chevrolet!! 😊😊

Pretty funny video. Quality designed and built in? Yeah, sure.

Museum was not built yet, so I wonder where they kept it ?

so the Impala was just known as 'Chevrolet' - LOL - man from uncle drove a 4 door Corvair - LOL - dick sergeant before dick york

Fascinating video, this was not an advertisement, it was an introduction film for dealers to show their salesmen. First car is a Catalina two door hardtop with optional fender skirts that make it look a bit funny. Hard to tell in the poor quality video but it is either Burgundy or matador red with red interior. It has all three of the possible optional toggle switches; power antenna, rear defogger and either reverb or power flow ventilation. Standard engine in the Catalina was a 290 horsepower 400. 428’s were optional but this car lacks the fender emblems that would call out 428. Second car is a Bonneville two door hardtop. The Catalina was the cheapest fullsized model and the Bonneville was the most expensive. Interesting that this car and the Catalina (as well as the GTO) don’t have the vinyl top, it was a very popular option and extremely profitable so most advertising of the time promoted it. Color looks to be either limelight green or crystal turquoise, interior is parchment (off white). Standard Bonneville engine was a 360 horsepower 428. Third car is a LeMans convertible in Cameo white with red bucket seat interior. The LeMans was the second highest trim in the midsized line (Tempest-Custom S, LeMans and GTO). This particular car is well optioned with 4 speed, console, wood steering wheel and tilt steering along with wire wheel covers. If you look carefully you can make out the cam cover when the hood is open, making it a six cylinder OHC engine, this is confirmed by the hood tach having a 5,500 rpm redline (allV8 cars would have a 5,100 rpm redline). The basic OHC6 was 250 cid and made 175 horsepower but given the 4 speed, tach etc this is most likely a Sprint version of the OHC that made 230 horsepower thanks to a 4 bbl carburetor and higher compression ratio. Trivia point, the lovely young lady driving this car is Kelly Harmon, sister of famous actor Mark Harmon. Further trivia, within a year she married John Delorean who was running Pontiac at that time. Marriage was unsurprisingly short lived (she was 20 he was in his mid 40’s). Fourth car is a Firebird convertible with the 400 option package. Color is Carousel Red (actually orange) with parchment buckets. This car also has many options and they are highlighted in the video. Standard engine with this option package is a 330 horse 400. Fifth car is an executive safari wagon, executive was the in between fullsized model and the wagon version was called Safari (safari generally referred to wood grained wagons in those years). It appears o be Expresso brown (but could be midnight green or black) and it has a gold interior. Standard engine was the same as the Catalina, a 290 horse 400. Six and seven are intertwined, the Grand Prix is the standard J model two door hardtop in midnight green with a vinyl top in black and interior in either black or green. The GTO is a two door hardtop also in limelight green with parchment inside. The comment about the Grand Prix having a heart of a GTO is reference to both cars having a standard 400 4 bbl engine making 350 horsepower. The GTO in the video is equipped with the optional top dog Ram Air IV 400 making 370 horsepower. This part of the video being in French is a throw back to some of the first Grand Prix print ads from 1962 being in French, a gimmick to play up the European nature of the car.

Not a respirator or glove in sight. Just American workers living their best lives.

Modern cars are reliable, economical and safe, they have no style, all look the same and are about as interesting as a refrigerator. But it's what regulations force us to buy. American cars here in the UK when I was a kid,1960s , were generally left by U S Airmen going back home. Thanks for the upload .

Behold! Another GIGANTIC GM blunder! 😮😢

2:03 if the kids weren’t around, I’d like to bend the wife over the rear bumper and lift up that dress and have at it.

This is all true and you should believe it, that is until the 1959 models come out. And then believe everything they say about that model year.

I guess they didn't think anyone would notice the missing wheel cover, or the sea was getting pretty nasty, and they didn't want to re-shoot. An entire TV screen only had 625 lines back then, pretty fuzzy. In any case, the '64 commercial with the beauty queen in an Impala convertible sitting on top of a butte was legendary, and this one was like "jumping the shark". The tide pretty much engulfed the poor Chevy.

I owned a 1979 add a 1976 1972 a 1978 must I go on I love blazers. 🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁💥

The dude in th Camao is like yea I'm getting laid tonight.

I took delivery of my black 60 BelAir coupe in Nov 59. I still have it.

Fascinating to see these old videos.

Beautiful ❤😊

She was amazing. Why did she

I'm sorry to let you down my beautiful grandchildren but these days are gone forever. The liberals and the lawyers ruined our country.

MADE IN CHINA

Could be Art Ballinger as the voice actor.

the real good ol' days

Gawd - look at the panel gap between front and rear doors on that thing. You can literally see the hinges. What a great concept, a terrific design and an absolutely awful execution.

And more than 65 years later, GM is still taking small steps in self-driving cars! (It hurt to see the 1957 Pontiac broadside the '57 Cadillac, even though it showed the vulnerability of the new X-frame design Cadillac began using that year)

My favorite 1960 Chevy Impala but I love convertible's in gloss Red but in warm climate weather not frigid winter weather

The good 'Ole Malaise Era...( I had a '79 Dodge diplomat 😢)

I'm three minutes in and it's nothing but horse drawn carriages and gramophones... Im guessing this was done for the 1939 NY world's fair.

Wonder how many of those painters died of cancer , spray painting WITHOUT a resperator or even a fricken mask. The sad reality of ignorence in those days where you were also told smoking was actually healthy for you 😳

It’s funny how in 1957 the bel air wasn’t popular the Foward look movement cars of chrysler were turn to the 60s they made good hot rod drag racing now collectors cars

That was FUN!

Thanks for this! I have a 1960 Impala and I think they are just lovely... Cheers!

And little to no PPE 😆

Great video. This was originally made to show to dealer staff. To perk them up for the new models.

Those guys painting with no mask

Fourth Gen's are so beautiful!

LOVE LOVE this Camaro. First year fourth gen and Chevy made this?? Awesome. Thanks for sharing this.

In Canada, the Chevy Bel Air, was also called a Pontiac Laurentian.

v6 that puts moore miles in the gallons:)))))))) and nowadays that v6 eats way moore fuel than a v8
