Man Reunited With His 1965 Chevrolet Impala

Thanksgiving week is a perfect time to share this feel-good story of a man's reunion with a beloved Chevrolet Impala.  The reunion was documented by Chevrolet;  see the video and full story here.

Herb Younger thought his cherished 1965 Impala SS was out of his life forever when he sold it in the 1980s to pay for his children’s education. Now his car is back with him, an emotional reunion captured on video for all to see.


Chevrolet, keeping with its theme of showcasing authentic moments, created a 60-second TV spot and long-form online version of the real-life homecoming.


Younger bought his Impala new in 1964 and amassed nearly a quarter century of family memories before selling it.


Two decades later, his sons decided to reunite their father with his Impala. After five years of tracking Vehicle Identification Number leads through several states, they finally located their dad’s Impala in Canada and purchased it over the telephone. The car was still in pristine condition.


“It’s not just a car. It’s all the memories and feelings,” said Jared Younger. “It brings all that back.”

Tyrrell-Doyle Chevrolet wishes you a Happy and Safe Thanksgiving!
