Sitting since 1988, can we get her to fire back up? Check out the rescue video below 👇🏾
1 of 1? I bought a rare 1969 Caprice with a 427 & a 4-speed! More rare than an SS 427.

This is what I loved about cars of this era. I wouldn’t have ordered this car with a four speed manual transmission, but someone who obviously wanted it could get it. Today’s vehicles are a generic snooze.

Awesome video of a rare car. Came from Montana and worked in Bozeman after college. Was drag racing then. One of my buddies and his mom had a bunch of 1 car garages around town in alleys rented out. An elderly lady wasn't able to pay rent and offered to give them the car for 10 years storage (they were plenty lenient with her) and they accepted. Her son died in Vietnam in '68 and his car stayed undriven since then. Just happened to be a '66 Caprice outfitted just like yours excepting air conditioning driven only 2 years. 427 4 speed, we checked the numbers, then found the build sheet. 425 hp. It ran but the car was valuable enough to have it professionally refresh. Black paint only needed buffing, he has it to this day, what a beast! I'll be watching for your progress on this car, good luck!

This car was a head turner in its day. If you lived in most towns and small cities in the USA or Canada, everyone would know you about your 427 Caprice with a 4 speed. It made you a cool dude. You were what you drove. Comfort, power, style and coolness. (The "coolness" option came standard with the 427 4 speed).

Man this thing brings back memories! I was 15 in the early 80's and we had a 69 Impala sitting between the house and barn amd my mother said i could have it if i got it running! Of course she didnt think i had a clue of how to fix a car at 15! Two days later i had her fired up and mamma said wait a minute i didnt think you could fix that, you dont have a license! I smiled got in and drove down the country roads where we lived! I miss those days and that car! A differnt time that seemed like a different world!

My grandma traded her BB 4 spd Caprice in on a 70' Nova with a SB 4 spd, both bench seat cars. Then she broke her hip and traded the Nova in on a '82 Buick Century with a slushbox behind a 3.8 bent six, she hated that car and so did I. I loved driving with her as a kid and watching her dump the clutch and row a few gears with the tires smoking, she loved it too. I sure hope you're doing a real resto on this gem you found, if it's for sale I'd love a crack at it!

Tower hose clamps, thats a term I haven’t heard on a long time.. back in the 80’s-90’s in the group I hung out with, we simply called Impalas/Caprices “big car”. Like “I know where a big car is sitting”. Usually behind some old house. And the term basically meant “engine donor” 😁. Those hideaway headlights and blue bow tie emblem bring back memories. The “rosewood” trim and push button radio are special. It looks like you have found a good one to save. Good luck on your project!

And please man! Please keep that cool old 8 Track Player, it absolutely belongs in there. Seeing this car brings me great memories of my older brother that had passed away last Thanksgiving, his name was Larry. He had a 1970 model year Caprice like yours when I was a kid, it had the 400 ci small block engine in it.

Pull the valve covers and make sure nothing is janky there. Bent/broken. Drain the oil and fill with half or the oil you drained and half ATF. Run it a bit off and on for a few days. Then drain it and change filter for sure. This might loosen up any lifter issues and clean some sludge out. You should probably drop the pan also after this and make sure the oil pickup is clean. AWESOME score finding this 1 of 1!!!!!

I must inform you that the car is a 1969 Chevy Caprice. I use to own one with a 4Speed Automatic and my Aunt had a 1970 Impala with a 400 Automatic. How you can tell the Difference is On the 1970 the tail lights go up and down. On the 1969 the lights go side to side like the one you have there. Mine had the same Hide Away Headlights which is what made the Caprice a little bit more luxury with the power windows and power door locks. Mine also had the what we called the Airplane Shifter which is also what the Camaro SS also had. Plus they were easy to work on unless you had a major issue like internal Engine Problems. Good Luck With it. It’s a Classic For Sure. 👍🏾

​@@stephenflowers8516a few things to consider, on older cars like this a timing chain and valve guide job is about a 8-10hr job with hand tools, electric or pneumatic tools 4-6hrs if no bolts break. Most newer cars rerequire level 2 technician skills to change a headlight, and the taillights are all on printed circuit boards that cost around $130 for the knockoff brand and sometimes over $500 for the proper part and I'm not talking about expensive luxury cars, I'm talking Maxima, etc... Read a story and watched a few videos about car companies tracking how many times their buyers had sex in their cars using technology installed from the factory. I've been a auto technician for 20yrs so it didn't surprise me that the technology could do this, I was just shocked that they actually used it this way and snuck the consent into the paperwork.

Odometers back in the day only had 5.1 digits because the internal tolerances in the engine meant a typical lifetime less than 100,000 miles. Of course there were exceptions for the people who actually maintained their vehicles regularly, but one look at the wear on the brake pedal would tell you if it was actually over 100K miles. Once you get new cap, rotor, wires, and plugs in her, and dial in the timing on the distributor, then it's on to some serious business.

Was offered hideaway setup. Declined as I don't see changing out radiator support and deal vacuum. Just had engine rebuilt, installed new reproduction interior, suspension rebuilt, and finished in original color repaint.. was offered 70k .. I parked it back in 2001. Pulled out 8 months ago and started restoration.. I could've just reseal the engine as compression was still at 125, which is still good for daily driver attending shows when driven.

You remind me of a car guy I knew in the air force, his name was Charles delvaile, from Connecticut operated a d.d. 71 dodge Challenger, keep doing what you do enjoy your videos! Maybe They'll get me motivated on my 2 '70 Mercury Cyclone G.T.s, & my '70 Mercury Cougar, & '67Mercury Cougar, + '71 Plymouth Fury, & '72 Mercury Montego G.T.

Hey glad you got her running. I THINK I saw comfortron or something like that by the climate control panel. That said I think your car has automatic climate control and you asked what is this? About that chromed looking thing under the dash pad above the guages. That’s the in car sensor or possibly load sensor. The old climate systems typically used 2 sensors an in car and an ambient sensor. The ambient one was generally located near the recirculating air door. Some use a third sensor ….. just an fyi. …. Auto climate control is a pretty rare option in a Chevy !!!

Any time you find a 1 of 1 car of any significance like this..... You should always do what ever it takes to save it. KUDOS for finding it and trying to save it. Regardless how this ends up. The only thing that would make this car cooler is if it was a triple black car from the factory. I hope it gets restored all the way some day!!! GOOD JOB MAN!!!!

Man it sounds great . It would be a great car for someone that wants a 69 427 4-speed Caprice to restore . It's such a complete car thats correct all the way down to the fuel filter which is unique to the car . So many Cool options , too bad the frame is rusted but a donor frame and pieces of the original frame with the vin number would make it a legal car to register and enjoy . The DMV is really getting picky about VIN numbers and always cover your ass when restoring an old car especially one thats rare like your Caprice . I'd surely keep in touch with the old man you bought the car from as him saying he knew where a lot of old cars are would be a great friend to have . Man you scored another great Chevy to add to your collection .

Congrats brother, really nice find, I caught myself laughing a cpl times at your cranky buddy there because I have a very similar situation with an older friend of mine who’s been a mechanic his entire life, they don’t mean anything by it it’s just who they are lol, buts it’s really nice having a friend that literally knows everything about these old vehicles. Anyway, excellent video, that motor sounds healthy, after a good tune up and probably a new distributor it’s going to run really nice,being a 4 speed car is gonna make this ride fun to drive, i won’t even buy an automatic , I’ve driven standards my entire life🔥
