1972 CHEVROLET CAPRICE & CHEVY IMPALA INTERNAL SALESMAN TRAINING FILM
As I approach the 50-year-old mark this year, it’s videos like this that always brings me back. As far back as I can remember in 1976 at the age of 5 years old being driven around in my cousin ’65 Black Impala SS or my Godmother ’66 Impala or better yet my mom’s triple black 400 powered ’74 Caprice Classic…
Big Chevys have always run in the family well there was also my dad’s ginormous ’73 Cadillac I actually liked that car too. Then when I got older I wanted one but I also like my F Bodies too, and in the late 80s and early 90s as a teen, I wanted a fast car sooooo that is the route I went but then as I got older I really missed the big Chevys I grew up with and well set my sights for a ’71 and found one but then as I called it was just sold and I was literally heartbroken I really wanted it but ok back to the drawing board.
I saw a few others but they were money pits bound to happen not to mention way overpriced for what they were. But then after a few weeks looking on craigslist there, she was I car I was looking for except it was a ’72 he messed up and put the wrong year down. But this is what I was looking for an all-stock unmolested car she had only 49,000 miles on her and then I knew this was my car, the car I have been waiting for the past 25 years.
Ok now so she has huge tear in the seat from my fat ass and 20,000 miles later, she has been my daily driver since 2017 and we have covered 8 states twice.

Ever since I could remember getting Tony’s Hot Dogs on Park ave in Newark NJ in his 65 Impala SS. Now I have my big Impala to drive around in and I love every min of it.
