I've never understood the fascination with the '62-64 full size Chevy. Not mentioning the shoebox Chevies (55-57), I think the '58-61 full size are much prettier with much more character than the '62-64. I also think the '65 is a nice looking car. The '66 isn't bad, but the change to the more modern tail lights was the beginning of the end.
1958 Impala
1959
1960
1961
1962 - to me, these ('62-64) are just too straight and flat. The fact that there is a straight line across the top of the fenders from the front of the car all the way to the back just makes these look enormous compared to the other years before and after that have more going on visually.
1963
1964
1965 - I like how the '65s had the curves in the rear and angled front.
1966 - still has the nearly fastback style rear window and curved rear fenders, but the front has lost something and the tail lights are so snoozy compared to the earlier cars.
