The '65 Impala....
The girl across the street's boyfriend bought a very early production (pre- SS396) Impala with the 409. It was black and he removed the front bumper and grill. The car was jacked up for big meats in the rear. I thought that was the meanest looking monster on the road (and I was a Ford guy). It was still a time when full sized cars still ruled the racing world.
