The 632 cubic inch engine can gulp down a healthy amount of nitrous.

If you look back to the roots of heads up street car racing you will find an elite group of racers that paved the way for what we have today. Rod Saboury, Danny Scott, Mike Moran and many others come to mind but it is the legendary 1965 Impala of Nick Scavo that caught so many peoples eye. Scavo was another one of the forefathers of the sport and competed in the Fastest Street Car Shootouts all through the 90’s. Most of these racers have pursued other careers and venues of racing but their legends live on to this day.

RaceCarMagazine.com has some pretty cool cars for sale. Check out their classifieds for more cars like Nick Scavo’s 1965 Impala.

While browsing some classified ads, I came across the very Impala that Scavo raced all through the 90’s and it is now for sale. It in fact has been listed as one of the top ten most popular muscle cars in the country as well as a 1996 feature in Hot Rod Magazine. The car basically remains as it was with the long body still in great shape and it will be the interior that catches your attention. The Impala has the factory bench seat and column shifter just as it did while being one of the fastest street cars in the country.

A 632 cubic inch engine sits under the hood with 14 degree Oldsmobile heads. This one still has all the go fast goodies to get the job done. A Barry Grant 1400cfm carburetor pumps the fuel down through the massive intake and heads.  At over 4000lbs the owner has listed the car as running 9.0’s through the mufflers on nitrous but says it will go into the seven second range. How cool would it be to own a piece of history and a seven second ride all in one? Well maybe one of our readers needs to buy it and find out.
