Rare does not always equate to being valuable. The big news for the 1965 Impala was the brand new L78 396/425 HP engine option. This killed the 409. Plus the 1965 409 is a "lower performance" engine with just a single 4BBL carb @ 400 HP as compared to the 1964 409 with dual quads @ 425 HP.

This 1965 409/400 HP 4 speed Impala sold for $40,000 in May 2016. So how much money does your car need to get it into this shape?
