Spray the air spring components with 303 Aerospace Protectant. I did that to my Town Car with a super tiny leak on one of the bags and it never needed replacement for over 2 years after that. Jack the car up a bit, spray the bags. Then do it again a little while later (half hour or a day or whatever). Then twice a year spray the bags. You can spray the air springs with soapy water to see if there are leaks in the bag/spring.
Noted the Gr position in the shift indicator. That super smooth TurboGlide transmission sounds fantastic. Just the slightest humming sound until turbine 1 and 2 stop contributing torque and then freewheel.
Impressive car. I think your test rides with Art are hilarious. You have guts my friend. Both he and the car have quite the get up and go for being so old. And they say teenagers are the wild ones. We old people can rock too. Always fun videos.
@@tonyscarcare5657 You would have made a good fighter pilot. Old car, older driver, narrow road. What could go wrong? And unlike at Disneyland, the ride is free. Go Tony!
Great seeing Art out and about. I am happy to the radiator is fixed and the belts repaired. It was great seeing how the air ride refiles to lift the back end up. I knew the bulbs were out for the backup lights.
Has Art warmed up to no fender skirts? Some cars were designed for them and look ridiculous without them (like his 78 New Yorker) but the Impala is stunning without!
I wonder if an air inlet could be added, so it could be raised using an air compressor, to assist the one that’s on the car, that way, the correct level could be maintained even when the car is not able to be moved outside(ie wintertime) I was just thinking it might be a little quicker also? I don’t know if that is possible? Also, was curious about nitrogen, I know it is sometimes added to tires to make them last longer, I wonder if it could make the air shocks last longer since they were made of rubber? I guess the nitrogen would have to stay in there for it to work?
Am $700 radiator recore? Actually that is likely not unusual. In the late 90s I had the radiator on my 63 Lincoln recored and it was $425. Once you consider nearly thirty years later and inflation lately the $700 seems normal.
Great Job Mr. Tony of taking care of Mr. Art. That is so kind of you. Roseann & Dan
That car looks so much better with the fender skirts removed. Looking great Art!
I agree with you, but so many others don't agree with us.
Nice to see Art exercising the '58 Impala.
Thank you! I agree. It's that time of year to get them out and enjoy them.
Beautiful 1958 impala 😊
Runs so smooth and the alignment is perfect.
Yes, Sir. Thank you!
It's nice that you check in on art and help him out when he needs it.
It's my pleasure! Art and his cars gained me a lot of subscribers. And he's as good as a guy that you guys see.
I like to see you and Art again. And Arts Chevy is very good locking and it was also good that you could help him with the bulbs in the back.👍👍
Thank you! It's always a pleasure hanging out with Art and his collection.
What a cool car and a couple of cool guys
Thank you, Sir! Much appreciated.
Money well spent getting the Radiator refurbished, was not cheap, but that car is quite an investment, definitely worth it
You're right, Dave, but we sure were hoping it could be fixed instead of waiting and getting a bill like that. 😳
58 Chevy's are still under-appreciated!
They sure are.

Thank you! This car has all new bags but has all of the other original 66 year old components.
58 Chevies don't get enough love
I agree.
That car is great smooth ride. My first car was a 1963 Chavy Bel Air wish I still had it.
Yes, it sure is.
Glad that you got that gorgeous Impala all fixed up. I still love the cocoa color Sport Fury though.
Thank you! I really like that 64 Plymouth myself.
Amazing that car still has a functional air compressor. 👍
I know! 😳

That is one crazy transmission!
Tony, These high tech, 1958 cars sure are complicated. 😄
That one really is. 😳 That was the toughest radiator I've ever changed.
I'm not a chevy guy but that's a good looking car. Yellow looks good on that car. I'm sure he's happy to have your help.
I'm not a Chevy guy either, but you're right, it's pretty cool.

I never get too worked up with him driving. He's very experienced and the cars are in tip top shape. Lol

Good
Thank you!

Thank you! It's always a pleasure hanging out with Art. It sure didn't take long to diagnose those blown bulbs.
i like those impalas.
Me, too!
Two things I've heard about air shocks, great ride, and they leak... eventually
That's pretty much it. Lol

I'm not sure. I think he's still mixed about it.

I don't know. I wondered about some kind of valve stem as well and am actually surprised it doesn't have one already.
That’s got to be the biggest Chevy model made?
Probably so!
