1964 Impala SS, Lifted AMC Eagle, and a 1963 Galaxie 500 Convertible | Barn Find Hunter - Ep. 86

It's... Not this one. This is an overhead valve. So I think... Well, look at this head, this carburetor bolts directly to the head, there are no separate intake manifolds. - Oh, yes, you're right. - And there is an exhaust manifold, but. But they were trying to make fewer parts. So they were manufacturing parts together back in the day and built the intake port directly into the cylinder head. Just bolt on that carburetor right there. Probably the only brand that ever did that. It's pretty clean. It works well? - Yes - And what intrigues me about this car collection, you know, is more than anything else is Alex himself.

He's a guy who decided to take the road less traveled, choose a brand of car that you know, isn't popular. It's not easy to get parts for them. If you need parts, you will probably have to order them online or wait a while while most junkyards are out of Ramble parts. But here you have this Eagle, which is a factory four-wheel drive car. You know, he's getting the Jeep CJ7 front-end engineer to sort out axles and lift kits. He is putting in roller rockers and taking two valve covers and welding them together to get more height so the rocker arms are free.

He is a welder and he is not afraid to get his hands dirty. I think the change of engines, the modification of engines. This is not something you see very often among today's young car collectors. So I think in a way he is the future of our hobby. Happy. (upbeat music) This car has original windows. Carlite is the manufacturer of the glass for these cars. So this piece of glass is a Carlite glass which is the little Carlite logo. That's the Carlite logo. The windshield has the Carlite logo and so do the three windows on the other side.

So, all original glass on this car.
