On "My Car Story" we're in the Suburbs of Phoenix AZ on 1-7-19.
We're looking at a 1960 Chevrolet Biscayne in Black Paint. The car is equipped with a 496 CI V8 engine producing 650 HP.
The car's Owner is Ric Slaughter. Ric’s had this car since 2017. He shares the car ran across his path, so he purchased it and fixed it up. Looks bad to the bone to me

I hate being labeled a ford, chevy or dodge guy. I am a car guy. I can watch your videos all day long. Thanks so much Lou.
HI David Schluter, Glad you're along for the ride :-) Thank you for commenting, and you're welcome, Lou
I agree David! I'm the same way. I love the old muscle cars and classic cars no matter what make.

To true!!! There are so many differences between the manufacturers and just so many beautiful rides from the Nova, Darts, Torino, Chevy II........ And on and on so, many to choose from!!!!
this 60 biscayne is the most beautiful of all the 1960 chevys i have ever seen. everything is perfect. the engine, the paint, the interior, just the look in general. this vehicle has my vote as best all around car of all of them on your channel lou. I WOULD LOVE TO PURCHASE IT.
Hi sly 23, High praise. Hope you're behind the wheel of the right one for you soon, Lou
i keep coming back to this video to see this 60 chevy over and over again. it is so beautiful. a work of art. if i owned one, i would want it just like this. this is automotive jewelry. GORGEOUS.
High praise sly 23 :-) Glad to read this car is a model of the right owe for you, Lou
@@loucostabile thank you lou. i have owned 2 60 chevys in my life. one in the late 60s that was a 1960 biscayne that i almost completely restored, and then it was stolen. my second was a 60 chevy bel air, which i kept for a couple of years. this year has always been a favorite of mine. but my all time car is a 1955 chevrolet nomad. thank you for these great videos.
In 1967 a friend of mind owned a black 1960 Chevy Biscayne like this one. He had gotten hold of a NASCAR 409 block. Bored it out and put 348 heads on it and added a 348 tri power manifold. We told every body it was a 348. Most people don't know that you can't put a tri power manifold on a 409 engine with 409 heads. But with 348 heads you can. My friend kept this secret to himself for years while he street raced this car. This car never ever got beat unless it broke something. Then after repairing the car he would rerace the car he lost to and always beat it. One day in 1974 my friend and his wife got into this car to go to breakfast and just around the corner from his house he blew up the engine. He then and only then let out the information about this engine. It was suppose to be over 500 cubic inches. After years of trying to get him to take it to the drags he finally agreed. Below the control tower he did a burn out. Taking out part of the clutch. When he left the line the car did a six inch wheel stand. This car only had traction bars and headers. Other then that it was completely stock. At the line when he let the clutch out it slipped the whole time. Then when he hit second gear he broke the center support in the drive shaft and it hit the bottom of the car the rest of the way. The car stop the clock at 11.58.

When I was a kid I use to call these chevys, The Chevrolet with wings. I always thought this was the best styling of that era. Great car! Rare in solid black. Dont see to many. Awesome presentation! Thanks Lou!
Ahhhh the Chevrolet with wings... NICE! You're welcome Wiiam
I sought it was an ugly car how WORNG I was as a kid cause now I Love this cars. 👈. 😎
My Mom likes the 59 and 60. I aggravate her every chance I get that they came with 2 church pews for the youngsters to sit on....

I'm going to run out and get one right away!
Awesome! This car is a monster. If the license plate & the dual exhaust pipes aren't warning enough, a quick blip of the gas pedal from Ric will serve as notice. Thanks for trekking out to his ranch to share this one with us, Lou!
Hi TheGunfighter45acp, Glad to receive a "Awesome!" from you :-) You're welcome, Lou
Sometimes I'm just so stupid. When I saw the license plate, I thought of the box that makes biscuits. I put together the Biscayne part but the Quick took me a moment. Clever plate.
Q
I'm a body man of 30 yrs, and know and feel the pride of the owner. The last 5 yrs of working I took on classic muscle cars, like GTO judge, anniversary corvet (totaled), 66 El Camino, 60s corvair, many 60's and 70s mustang etc. My prize car that I owned was a 64 1/2 mustang Shelby cobra with hp 289 screamer. Oh the memories. 😊

Never was a 60 fan before, the way it's done, I am now, of that particular one, scary looking in all black, interior looks great in leather, stance, rubber, motor, real nice build, and has A/C too
High praise :-)
Yes sir, a really sweet winged beauty here. Details are excellent. Motor sounds strong too.
My Uncle had a 60' red in-line 6 cylinder. I loved just standing at the driver's side, back a ways angled from the rear, looking down the side/rear fin... just taking in the view! It was brand spanking new! Good times! Thank you, J

That is my kind of ride. Simply beautiful ! Back in the day (1969) A friend had an all black 1965 2 door Biscayne powered by a 396 cu in (Don't recall the horse power) with a mod 2 speed powerglide auto transmission. Ordinary black 15" wheels, duel exhausts with hidden tail pipes. It was a fantastic sleeper. These are great memories.

That era of 59-61 was momentous for Chevy in terms of their styling and design. Awesome video - thanks for sharing!
HI Tom Gill Chevrolet, Thank you for the kind words on the video, I appreciate that. You're welcome, Lou
55-57 are great also!!!
So many great years for Chevrolet. 1961 thru 64 are my favorites. Never liked the 59. Too strange for me. But 60 was pretty nice. Especially this one. I love how the 61 had body features that mimicked the great fin era. So cool.
I worked as a diemaker for GM and built many new dies from raw casting to finished production-ready, and our goal was to create panels as straight as these. Sadly it is rarely attainable in the real world so I'm happy that this man has massaged those old mass-produced panels into the dream examples the craftsmen wanted them to be! Well done, sir.

I remember when there were four levels of Chevrolet...Biscayne, Bel Air, Impala and Caprice. We had a 63 Bel Air four-door sedan which was pretty Spartan by today's standards. It had power steering, brakes and an AM radio, my dad added aftermarket air which was cold as ice

Wow some serious pipe there! What size is it?!
"2 and a half inch"
Lost all credibility right there lol...

Hi Steve, Cars have an amazing way of looking better with age, Lou
You have a 496 to hell with the nitrous
RIGHT !
The Chevy Biscayne is an iconic example of "Less is more". I love em.
Hi Don, Happy to read "I love em" :-) Lou
A glorious car for sure!! I had a 1960 Biscayne for a few years as a young man. Back then, it had 46,000 one owner miles and costed $600 from a dealer with a warranty. I always wanted to ditch the six for a big block but didn’t have the money. There were no 496 ci engines back then. A 327 was the usual transplant, and 409 and 396 big blocks were dream stuff! This one is a true show car with that fabulous black paint. It shows that this guy was a body shop owner, and he did it right!! A great car story for sure, Lou. Thanks for the memories.
Glad you enjoy this "glorious car" :-) You're welcome.
What a classic great car .THANKS Lou

A 496 engine? Has to be aftermarket. What a beautiful Biscayne! With that NOS setup, no wonder they call it "BISQUIK"! Another great classic from you!
Hi Michael, Happy to share "BISQUIK" with you :-) Lou
496 is a Chevy motor. Our shop 1 ton came with a 496 in 2001.
It's only aftermarket by Lingenfelter. There really is a Chevrolet 496. It's a truck engine also known as the 8.1L and they were in production in the early 2000s. They may been in production in the late 90s, I can't recall exactly.
2 1/2 " dual exhaust sounds SO good - got it on my 1996 4.3L Caprice Classic (1200 $) dollars
Nice !
I always like the 60's styling it was like they fixed the bizarre 1959. My parents had a 59 when I was in HS.

I saw a 64 Acadian in mint condition , 6 cyl 3 on the tree 24,000 original miles. This is a car that granny would drive and I would never look at.

Those horizontal fins.1961 my friends dad straight across the street had 60 impala.At 100 mph,those fins airplaned the rear end off the ground.
Damenit! You beat me by 5 hours!. No good a high speed, for sure. You must be an old fart like me.
I have heard that the 1960 Impala with the tiny roof was accidentally very aerodynamic and would peg the speedo even with a 283
Baby Driver sort of.I have good memory.I was 6 in the back seat.Appeared on this planet in 1955.

When I was a kid there was a guy in in town that had a 60 Impala 2 door hard top with a 409 and a 4 speed with a blower poking through the hood white on red with crater's this was in NY in the early eighties was one of the coolest cars I ever saw in my life!

I had a '60 Chevy Bel-Air (4 door in '73, $40 car!) "283", auto (SLIPPED BADLY) no other options! IT WAS A VICTIM OF NORTHERN MINNESOTA WINTERS (NO FLOOR PAN, "2X4" wedged across the sedan "posts" to keep the seat from falling out!) A VERY FOND MEMORY TO THIS DAY!
