1964 Chevy Impala - Classic Industries' '64 Impala Sweet Imotion

Since 1958 GM has built a cross-market following from low-down land yachts to quarter mile winning cutters. The Impala has been a part of that diverse culture sailing through America. 1964 we saw the waning of the “Populuxe” era of jet inspired styling move toward luxury cruise ship size elegance. So, how does a restoration and performance parts supplier modernize those features some 43 years later?

1966 Chevy II / Nova - Classic Industries' '66 Innovation Nova

Classic Industries®, recognizing both the emerging desire for modern suspension and drivetrain parts in vintage cars and the high caliber of parts now produced in the aftermarket, built this heavily modified 1966 Chevy II/Nova.

1971 Plymouth 'Cuda - High Visibility

I have owned this 1971 'Cuda for nearly ten years now. After previously owning my first 'Cuda years ago, I knew I wanted to fully restore one, and I waited a long time to find this car. I felt very fortunate that I was finally able to buy the sheet metal to make it happen. It actually took over 8 years to accumulate all of the restoration parts I wanted for this project, and just over a year to get it into the shape you see here.

1968 Chevy Camaro RS - Lady in Red

Gary Lindenmayer found this 1968 Rally Sport Camaro while working one day. He contacted the owner and shortly thereafter, purchased this classic. The car sat in his garage for about a year, and then it was sent to the body shop to have all the bondo removed. It received some fresh sheet metal, to include fenders, valances, and a hood from Classic Industries. He had the car painted and installed a 350 cid, 300 hp motor coupled to a TH350, feeding the torque to a 12-bolt rear end. Then he moved to the interior, practically replacing everything with restoration parts purchased from Classic Industries. His Camaro can been seen cruising the streets of Southern California, at least when he is not working on his next Chevy restoration.

1967 Chevy Camaro SS - 465 Horses At the Ready!

Thanks for all the information you guys have given me. Here's a picture of our car, a 1967 Camaro with a LS1, a M22 four-speed manual Muncie transmission, with the power to the road via a 3.73:1 Posi. The car is stock SS except for the engine, which is pumping about 465 HP. The car has a folding rear seat with white interior. It was bought in Canada two years ago after many hours of negotiation.

1965 Chevy Impala SS - '65 and Very Much Alive

This car started off as two cars. Cutting one apart with a blow-torch was half the fun. It took six years to rebuild this car with it's original 396 (first year in a production car). It was home built with a sandblasted and painted frame. I've recently added the 20" wheels. Check out my wife's 1957 Pickup with the Louis Vuitton accents.

1970 Chevrolet C10 - From TLC TV Show Overhaulin'

Alonzo loves his 1970 Chevy truck because of the engine inside; he built it with his late father. Overhaulin' gave it a rebuild, along with the rest of the ride. The hideout for this adventure was Classic Industries. Chris and A.J. brought the truck to Chip and the gang. This happened as Alonzo was returning home from abroad; he's a Marine Sergeant, and if that wasn't special enough, Alonzo's wife, insider Nicole, is ALSO a Marine Sergeant.
