That El Camino turned out pretty nice.
Thanks!
You should show all your cars cleaned up and driving. People will definitely want to see that plus seeing the cars you've built will probably get you more subs.
Coming along nice
Thanks!
this wagon just keeps getting tougher looking with every mod nice work!!!!!!!
👍👍
Thanks 👍
Can t wait to see it finish....looking real good...old school flames .very nice
Thanks!
Really enjoy your channel, the scoop turned out nice.
Seeing you and a few other TH-camrs have motived me to start my own projects & youtube channel !
Go for it!
My main man Lee kicking ass in the ice storm he's a Nomad that guy. 😉✌

Matt the wagon is looking good just love it going to be nice when you get to the point to say stop love your videos
Many years ago i mounted a L88 one on a camaro.we grinded the steel and molded it on with bondo glass.came out exelent..peace...
I've done many that way but over time cracks appear.
I experimented with rivets. riveted a mopar one on a 76 camaro.peace...
Nice job dude cars looking really nice I love it 👍
Thanks 👍
Love those Chevelles!! I’ve had 2 ‘68 SS’s, a ‘69 SS and a ‘66 Malibu. If you’d like to rid yourself of the’69 at the end of the video, I have a ‘78 Silver Anniversary Corvette that I’d love to discuss the possibility of a trade. I’m brand new to your channel and I love your “NO B.S” regular human without a huge budget approach! Awesome work!!
My 69 is not for sale or trade, sorry.
I understand
Looking good almost there can't wait
Thanks!
I do believe its designed to go up through the bottom of the hood, but your way works fine too
The fit and finish would of looked 100% better.
Great job the scoop looks great!!👍 love all. Your stories
Thanks!
The Nomad looks cool with a cowl induction hood. Keep up the great work and the excellent videos 👍✌️🇺🇲
Thanks 👍
Looks awesome
Thanks!
I'm hibernating in this hospital room, damned heart attack and stroke. I got the double whammy again. Someone is trying to take me to heaven but I'm not ready to go
sorry to hear that
Hang tough Keith. Best wishes to you.

Wow and my doc his told me I gotta check mine!
Yep regular check ups can save your life.
70-72 Cutlass you say? Now you got my attention. I owned 2 different 70 Cutlass, one was an "S" the other a Supreme. Awesome cars. The "S" had already lived a hard life from 70 to 87 before I got it but it was way cooler than the Supreme. The "S" has the fastback window and quarters with the sharp wide body line.
I like them too but need a better candidate than the one I was offered.
Your car your style Lee!
Looking good man...the flames will be perfect on it man.
Thanks!
Great minds think alike bro! Lol 😅I was thinking of doing the same thing with attaching the hood last week as you mentioned. Countersink the holes and then rivet and fill. Haven’t finished watching the whole video yet, so we will see how far you get with attaching it!
Great idea doing a follow up on how the paint looks a year later. Would love to see a hot motor dropped into it.
Its looking really cool I would give my left ....beautiful car
The scoop looks awesome, couple more videos and pretty much be ready for paint.great video as always.
Thanks 👍
Snaggin wagon is looking great 👍
Looking good ! 🏁🔧🏁🔧🏁🔧🏁🔧🏁🔧
Thanks!
Parts are why those people are selling can’t afford it anymore to build them. But guys like you who can make patch panels is where it is.
Looking good, brother 👌. Love the nova, brother. I know where I can get a 71 nova shell.
Thanks 👍
good choice lee 427 it just sounds good where's those cats at lol
Thanks! Cats are fine.
The 327 closer to the 5.3 L 326cid
I think it's 323
The 5.3 is supposed to be 323 cubes so the 327 badges would have been close to true, but the 427 has the Cool look factor.
427 means room to grow.
Anyone else getting nightmares of "Corvette Summer" ?
Here in Dallas Tx. (Pleasant Grove) We got 2 & a half inches of Sleet then a half inch of rain that turn to ice....5 days also on the ground. I'm glad that shit gone......Had cabin fever myself.....Now this week *ucking rain SHITTTTTTTT.......
The exact same weather here since I'm only an hour and a half from Dallas.
Clunkers and Classics I have, just like you, molded in a few glass hood scoops. And mine too, did crack on me after a while. You mentioned different ways of mounting them. I want to ask you if you have ever used Corvette panel bond to glue one down? If you have,,,or known of anyone else that has, did it seem to hold up better?
Oh man,,so sorry about your furrbaby. Man,that really hurts the soul.
Oh yeah,,and have to say that your Nomad is really looking GREAT!
Facebook Marketplace had a blue 1968 Pontiac LeMans $1,200 by the time I got ahold of him to talk to him it was sold
good deals go fast
Were did you order this from I want to build a cowl hood for my 89 gmc sierra classic s15 that’s 5.3 and 4l60 swapped I love the look of them and I have a extra hood laying around for it anyways so it’s worth a shot
ebay
The part where you're talking about your views for last month got me thinking. If you did some of those vertical video shorts of each car, you might get some views out of that now that they're trying to push shorts. They might also work as a way to advertise the main videos. Just a thought. Hood looks great.
Can only submit them through your phone and I use a camera so can't do it.
My friend years ago had a chevelle he put the 396 emblem upside down lol He had a fast small block in it
Hate to say it but it's been 75-80 here near Pensacola trying to paint my 69 nova ss 350 4-speed lol
Car is looking awesome!
Thanks!
Nice look on the Nomad Lee, how many classics you have? All looking great
about 15
That ss logo is backwards buddy
Upside down.
I use the snap caps and screws like the ones that come with pickup truck sun visors
Can you mount scoop from underside the hood?
The cowl was designed to be fitted from underneath the bonnet my friend. Would have been easier and looked a lot better if you had done that.
lol @ 5 days of this crap. Try 6-7 months of it here in New Hampshire, I do have a house in Alabama though, if not for business in NH I'd be long gone already. One day we need a video on that boat.
I grew up in Canada but got out as soon as I could.
You should look into some car covers to help keep the dust off all them cars..
car covers blow off
Do you have a link for the cowl hood?
I showed the ebay page in the video
Your SS emblem is upside down on the grill 😉
😅👍
Fair lady z? In the background!
junk
Hood scoop looks great 68 nomad restoration
Thanks!
Hey, did the guy ever come and check out the 76 Malibu reason for asking I’m looking for a passenger side door
\intact dogs love cold weather. The enjoy the feeling of their scrotum contract. Cats on the other hand LMAO
Never use silicone to help bond panels, it attracts moisture and will cause rust!
I think your SS is upside down.
I should get me a car dolly and start hauling you good car deals from Pa. for gas money and a few beers. How come you don't do motorcycles and vans?
My limit to get vehicles is about an hour away due to time and gas. I buy anything I can make a buck on.
I think you're an amazing mechanic fabricator painter everything but please don't put that scoop on that nomad man
Those $1,200 cars that need $12,000 worth of work not too much of a deal really
For my taste ,
It's way to high .
Didn’t you use to time lapse doing the work on your repairs ? All you do now is talk.
I noticed that also but hey, its his channel I suppose. Personally, I like a mixture of talk and viewable work but that is just me.
Exactly
1980 to 95 Corvettes aren't worth nothing, your just wasting your money on them....
They're worth more than a 1977 El Camino.
Say man, check out my skylark vids. It's a 70 skylark with a healthy 455. It looks better now than when I posted the video, but if interested.. I'd do some trading.
I'm in northwest Arkansas. Clean title. Original 350 car, but I've got every single bit of paper work from 1970. Good interior, too. Already had GS hood.
Make a video on it or email me some pics. Emails in the description.
