The round key is for all the doors, trunk and glove box. The square key is ignition only.
Beat me to it. Damn kids these days don't know anything! 😅 Also, tube sandbags are 60lbs each. I have four sitting in my garage at this moment.
I had two police package Caprices just like this car only a couple of years newer and the police package Caprices had only one key to control everything. I don’t know why all cars came with just one back then. It was much more convenient.
Before too long they won’t know what a car key is period! 😂
Our 91 blazer also came with a plastic key😂
@@tbirdhomer That’s true
I had a 1983 Caprice Classic. Owned it for 31 years. THE greatest car I've ever owned. Had a 5.0L V-8 (305 CID), which is exactly the same engine that yours has. That engine compartment is IDENTICAL to mine. If it were me, and if it's in decent shape, I'd leave everything under that hood exactly as you found it. This includes the air pump and any other factory stuff. In the time I drove mine, it NEVER stalled at a red light on a cold morning, and it seldom required more that 2 cranks to kick over. The Rochester Quadrajet was as rugged and reliable as an anvil. It made emissions perfectly. Mechanics used to remark about its originality to me. I never changed the distributor, rotor, module, wires... nothing! These cars are bulletproof. I gave it good oil at regular intervals. The only major drive train issue I ever had was the tranny pump in the 700R4 (which was a common item to fail on these). Thanks for giving this car the TLC it deserves. I hope it gets a happy owner to give it another 40 years of service.
Good man
Do you like Old School American cars? & which is your favorite?
Dont forget to like & subscribe!
Lexus sc300 is my favorite
My favorites are the early 80's, like the Tornado, Eldorado and Riviera .
Any '68 - '75 Land yacht, but I'm a real fan of the Ford Galaxie and Buick Sport Wagon.
76 olds or any chevy
That is a center cap for Chevrolet's Rallye wheels. Used on pre-1984 Corvettes, Camaros, Impala SS, and Malibu SS models. Keep up the good work.
The corvette ones said “corvette by Chevrolet” all the others just said Chevrolet
These Rallye Wheels were available in both 5 on 4½ and 5 on 5 over years, depending on engine. Big blocks and wagons had the 5 on 5 bolt pattern.
My 76 Monte Carlo had them too
They were optional for the 1970-1977 Monte Carlo as well.
Gentlemen, nice work as usual. These box Chevy Impala and Caprice cars are fetching a pretty penny nowadays.
Man I had an 81 impala the same color . Wish I still had it!
Not that one. It's a worn out rust bucket ready for the crusher. It isn't worth anything. The was a nice car when it was new but it's worn out. But I do agree that nice well cared for examples of these cars from the 1980's may bring a good price but generally speaking most cars from the1980's except certain sports cars aren't considered to be collectable. It just wasn't a great decade but cars were getting better by the end of the 1980's as technology advanced.
When I was 16 in 1994, my grandpa gave me his 82 Impala. We just buried him on Wednesday so I was feeling a little nostalgic for that car and this video just happens to show in my recommended. This has been a fun watch for me, thanks!
Condolences on the passing of your grandfather.
What I like about this 1985 Chevy Impala I love the front ends four-eyed headlights, Chevy bow tie on the grill and chrome. Front bumper. I like the rear tail light panel. Overall. I love this body style along with its brother the Chevy Caprice. You guys are going to do this car justice and getting it cleaned in detailed and hopefully running again. Please keep up the good work
If the existing engine runs well, I definitely would NOT swap it out!
Great job guys. Have a wonderful day.
ooooh man, this is going to be so satisfying to watch. I love detailing
Helpful tip! If you guys ever get an intake fire, crank it over again. It will extinguish the flames. Be careful doing this if it’s actually getting fuel, but for the ones you’re trying to run on starting fluid this is the way.
Something satisfying about the detailing restoration of a "normal" car. Kudos!
Wow, another really satisfying video… it’s crazy that the vinyl roof is in such good shape and the rest of the car is worse for wear… usually it’s the other way around, but you brought back the shine, and great job on the interior!
Thank you..thank you! For doing an 80's car! Yes it was the malaise era for cars, but if you lived through it there are some truly wonderful memories of these cars. This Impala is somewhat rare with a factory vinyl top and AC. It would have been someone's pride and joy when new. Had to chuckle at the burgundy sport mirror off another car. That plush carpet was great.. not like today's velcro stuff.. We did not have a ton of safety features, but we have marvelous carpet to bleed out on!! 😂 Keep up the good work fellas.
Love all your videos but the ones under 30 minutes are my favourite so I can watch them on my break at work lolol. Also, the biohazard ones are, for some reason, my favourite as well hahah.
Absolutely love your videos. Great to watch gefore bed. Soothing.
May I suggest you obtain a few moveable partitions/walls that you can put on the opposite side of the vehicle when you are pressure washing. Could keep all the nasty spray from getting all over your shop.
Keep up the hard work! The older/rarer/longer untouched the vehicle the more enjoyable the video.
Cheers gentleman.
The good old sandbag trick for better traction in the winter. Car looks amazing after the detail
This is the car of my father ( the model, no this one exactly) and i love it😊
Those different wheels/hubcaps are rally wheels, which usually have beauty rings and center caps like Monte Carlos.
Nice Impala! Not too many out there anymore. Makes me think of the car chases like To Live And Die In LA, Running Scared, and Thunderheart.
Nice job on the Impala ! 👍
this car looks almost brand new, and i love that grey paint on it. shame it didn't turn on but i think she has a chance after all, i hope someone will rescue her. amazing job as always btw
What car are you looking at? That thing is tired.
@@jackyou3145 the exterior in particular. But the rust spots are totally normal on a car of that age
caprice
Who are you kidding? Did you take a good look at this car? It's an old rust bucket ready for the scrapyard and not worth fooling with.
Excellent video-for traction I used four lead bricks in the trunk as I live in a winter climate.
It's an old rally wheel cap, they had them on a lot of older Chevy's back in the day. 👍
Round key is for the doors & truck. Square key is always for the ignition.
I live in the UK and love the before and after detailing when you have completed the cars
Gonna scream and holla bout this Chevy Impala!
Old Chevy looks pretty good! Nice job guys.
This is a great find. You guys are awesome! 😊
My first car was an 88 caprice so this brings back some memories. Spent two days when i first got it detailing and doing paint correction. What i would give to go back to 96.
That's a great find guys really enjoying your videos
Always great videos..... and excellent work ✌🏾💪🏾
wish we had cars like this in scotland guys :) love all your videos x
Wish we had more that survived over here. Anymore it doesn’t matter the manufacturer. They all look alike, no character.☹️🇺🇸
@@StevenSmith-pt8rz Agreed. New cars look more like appliances.
My grandfather had a 1984 Impala 4 door that was in dark red back in the late 80s. Had a color matched interior as well. I would go for rides in that car often when I was a kid. Miss those days.
And love a good detailed back story too 😎
This is my style for sure!
I wish you guys do more of these antique Square bodies. Patiently waiting on you guys to do G Bodies as well. Love you guys content.
Another great job guys ❤
Pressure washing is the best bit😅
I love it. Growing up, my grandma's best friend had one of these, except the exterior and interior were in a beautiful emerald green. Whenever I got the chance to ride in the back, I literally felt like a prince being paraded around on a motorized pillow :D
Amazing
The engine is an LG4 305 with an electronic (E4ME) Q-Jet carburetor.
Brent, everything you guys do is cool.
Nice clean up looks good 👍
If you guys were to open another shop in texas I'd like to work with you guys. Detailing for me is so calming
Ive always loved those style chevy impalas/caprice classics. They are like the square bodies of the car world
I love the way you guys clean the cars. But you can easily get all those stains out if you mix a carpet cleaner and and oxy clean in hot water and use that a pre treatment!! Thank me later. But let sit for about 3 to 4mins
I think the main thing you use to clean the interior is,
Elbow grease !
Awesome job👍🏾
I have a soft spot for 80s cars, this is a good one. 👍
I love it when detailers throw some nice shine on the tires that are god knows how old and shouldn’t be driven on.
Again great video. Old school Americana
The best ballast you can use for winter driving is bags of salt. Then you can use it if you or someone else gets stuck! Also keep a shovel and if you're really hardcore, keep an actual recovery kit, or tow ropes, snatch block, and a come-along.
Nice one, guys!
That Rallye wheel goes back to 1968, offered as an option. 14'' and 15''. I really like that 1979 Caprice you have there in the corner. Nice clean up of the Impala :)
good car! good work !
I wish so badly you guys had a second channel where these cars would go to a shop and get fully working and all bodywork be completed. The detailing is fantastic, but I always want to see the rest done.
The odd wheel is a Chevy Rally wheel. They were available on pretty much every Chevy in the mid 60s thru the late 70s. The were/are a very popular wheel.
Might want to remove the paper air filter when trying to put out a fire. Keep this V8 if it is running well, why swap? Lastly, what does the undercarriage look like?
HEY BRENT AND RJ, You guys always ask us a question in videos so I have a question for you!!!! What do the owners do with the cars you clean up for them? Do they get them back on the road or do they generally sell them????
Fun fact - in the mid-1980s Chevrolet outfitted a few Caprice Wagons with C4 Corvette powertrains as chase cars for hauling parts while keeping up with Corvettes on test track. Look it up. Nice find!
These were everywhere when I was a kid. Damn shame they aren’t common anymore
Good job bro ❤️❤️
I have a much newer Impala! Love the older Chevy's though! Great job guys! Love your videos!
I have a soft spot for these cars. My first car was a 77 Caprice Classic. It was beat and worn out but I took that car everywhere until it caught fire one day and sadly that was the end of that. I hope to find another one of these some day and really appreciate it like it deserves
Love your videos ❤❤
Yes that wheel came on Corvettes, Camaros, Chevelles, and Novas. They are called Rally wheels. They came out with a 5.0 which was the 305 V-8.
As a fellow Brent, I know Brent can knock out that beast of a car!!!!
Looks great
Um abraço do Brasil!
Nice job guys. Great to see you out in front of the camera Brent :)
You guys got a start using a scrub brush instead of an orbital iPad that you’re using because you’re not getting all the dirt out of the carpet started going over it 34 times when you can use the scrub brush and get deep down in there to get all the dirt out big super fan of your channel. Love your videos keep making some more awesome videos. Thanks.
It looks like a 305 engine. I wouldn't swap it as long as it was running good. The most I'd do is an engine overhaul and possibly put a performance cam in it for a little upgraded performance and exhaust.
The square key is the ignition key the round on is to the doors, trunk and glove box. Looks like the PO had a couple nice boxy Caprice/Impalas. The front rims are a style of GM rally rim…I believe the Corvette/Camaro/Monte Carlo all had that style.
Impala? It should be called Pregnant Hippopotamus! Chevrolet, none of the moving parts hit against each other, so it will run! Great clean up guys, looks like it was a real "barn" car, was that cow poop?
Okay, RJ gets first prize for car sounds. How's the Stair Master challenge going?
I love these cars and that’s also not surprising for a new GM product to had so many problems
Beautiful car !
Great transformation guys. Nice to see cars from my 20’s. I assume this one was built in the 1970-1980’s because of the leather landau roof
That's a lovely boat.
Happy Thanksgiving weekend to USA citizens great show as always
That hubcap that was different was also used for the 1st gen camaros!
No fish-tailing in the snow❄️
Nice outcome. I still wanna see the early RX-7 that was in the garage with the FD aye👀
Safety tip: When fire comes out of the carb, cease to spray starter fluid and continue to spin the engine over with the starter. It will harmlessly suck the flame back into the engine.
Yes, that looks like a Corvette wheel and likely has the 305 V8 engine. We used to have those as fleet cars for the company I worked for back in the mid-1980s. Now, I see them as ghetto cruisers with gigantic wheels that are worth more than the car!
🤣🤣
Is that a Mitsubishi Starion/Conquest?????? Nice!!!!!!! Can't wait!!!!!
Hey guys, I don’t know if you guys are aware but these cars have a huge following and people pay a lot of money for these cars in any condition. If you guys can buy this car I would consider it because you can turn an easy profit!
These cars where actually quite nice. Even where orderable with the diesels! and I've seen a few. Not popular though.
maybe in the EU I've seen the most of them. Super cool detail! I can't believe how dirty the carpet was.
Superb!!!
I have swapped out the motors on two of these cars for GM crate motors and one car made over 400hp and went 11s in the quarter mile. It was very fast for what it was
Hi guys ...
Love from INDIA DARJELLING ❤
Can your product delever in INDIA
fire🔥🔥
Great work as always. Odd car to work on. They made millions of these and they're about as collectible as a chewing gum wrapper. I can't count how many of these I rode in or drove.
They are worth a pretty penny now in great consition
@mike88g1 they're disposable. About as desirable as a rash. Anyone can check the prices and see they're nothing.
@@tmdillon1969 go ahea look at them here in cali i mean all usa
@@tmdillon1969 a nice one will fetch about its original msrp or a bit more.
Iconic American design
Love your videos. How many microfiber towels would you use on an a average job?
Is great to see you buddy
I guess the Corvette hubcap is what allowed it to park in the Corvette only space. 😏
I've always loved those cars man I would love to have that thing i had a stroke and it is big enough to get my wheelchair in and out easily great job guys you guys are awesome love the channel God bless
I love watching your videos. My knowledge of cars is how to drive one, gas them up, check the oil, and change the tires. I drive a 2018 Impala. I prefer the newer cars because of the much better features. Though I don't know that much about cars, I'm older so I know a little more about our bodies. I think you need to invest in a table instead of washing the floor mats and stuff on the floor. Maybe get something like a metal patio table so you aren't doing so much work being bent over. I'm just saying. Littleton Colorado 😊
i personally love older vehicles like that Caprice, because it’s made of Detroit Steel and built like a tank, compared to the cheap ‘cookie cutter’ cars these days !!!!
