I’m glad I found your channel, things are explained and shown the way I need to hear and see them, thank you.
You make the best Chevelle vids on the internet man. Really!
I agree, and thank god hes doing them. Haha I need HELP
This information was right on time for me. Here is some information someone may find helpful. The sequence of letters on the buckets are facing the car C D B A. C and A are outer buckets with D and B being inner buckets. Thanks for the video.
You have helped me completely restore my 68 Buick GS! You are the man!
Thank you for this video, I found it very helpful
Thanks. I always appreciate a good chevelle how to.
Thanks for the great video on head light install. I was able to find the correct screws to attach the head light rings to the head light buckets. I went to my local WINCO store they stock the correct Philips head screws, the part number is 4600-H.

Very grateful for this video. had small details most people expect others to know. just what I needed to answer a small question I had
Great. I didn't take apart and knew it wasn't complicated but this got me to recall how and figure out what parts |I'm missing !! Thanks
Spot on sir! Parts are aligning perfectly.
thanks, i appreciate the criticism
Great videos....keep em coming. On my 70 Elco, the buckets are lettered RH pass side C outer and D inner and on the left they are B inner and A outer.
👌👏 great video... lots of help. thank you.
Super helpful. Thank you.
Hey yo Chris, really dig your videos very informative! Restoring my 1970 Chevrolet El Camino. Turn to your videos a lot for help! Thanks. By the way those little plastic adjuster screws, believe it or not you can find all that s*** on Amazon. Thanks again for the help of videos bro!
"D"-MAN.
Thanx bro! Trying to put my 69 SS 396 back together
Awesome vid. I watched about a year too late. I was so frustrated installing mine!!
NICE VIDEO!!
Thanks for the video, just the information jeg need for my 69..
When I pulled my buckets, I noticed that there had been some white lithium grease used on the backs of the buckets where they contact the radiator support. That contact usually leads to rust in that area over the years.
Excellent detail ! Question why did you leave your brackets on the frame for the bumpers ? It will be very difficult to put back on under the car ! Right
Amazing videos . Made my replacement easier
Cool bro thank you! ✌️😎
Chris, check out Octane Lighting , no halo crap, glass lens metal back housings , takes 9003 type bulbs, direct drop in , high and low have different location tabs on the back,came loaded with bulbs and a free set in the box , $89 bucks for all 4 , I put mine on relays to power them , but doubt I needed to , WAY brighter and very impressed for the price ! I know most are junk , these are not
I bought some like that already. They look stock but use a crazy bulb.
@@chriscraft77022 hope you bring some Chevelle videos back soon! LS twin turbo swapped my 70’ , used a Colorado 5spd trans, vsracing turbos, learn to weld and built the hot side myself, first drive tomorrow I hope! Your Chevelle videos inspired me to get off the couch and start working on mine couple years ago , thanks for all you share
good job, sometimes guys get parts in a box and are not sure, thanks
Light bulb buckets already have stamped identifiers marked on them, on the top facing tab (A,B,C,D) driver to passenger side..

Great video and your right, the aftermarket headlights look terrible, I found out the $300 hard way.
I. LOVE. YOU.
I bought just some aftermarket buckets...OMG what headache.I found out they sent me all the buckets to fit only 1 side but they were marked as if they would fit both sides.Nice factory mess up..
Did you ever do the light testing video?
Can you make videos on how to maintain the chevelle so it is running bullet proof? I just took over a chevelle. It’s my first classic car and am curious as to how maintain the engine and all of its fluids, plus maintenance on brakes and such. You know things to upkeep the chevelle.
the only thing I do like that is I take the carburetor off every 6 months and clean it thoroughly and inspect the plugs... and drive it almost every day... that’s how to keep them running 100%
the rest is just like any other car
Awesome man! Thanks for the time you out in making the vids on the chevelle. I’m sure I’ll continue to run up the views on those vids.
Right now, I need to work on replacing the door lock cylinder for passenger side. I can’t unlock it from the outside and i have to press pretty hard and deep on the button to unlock it. Your strip down of the door panel was helpful
The H/L Ring Retaining Screws are on Ebay(Stock Repro) Now Nov 2018.
I ordered mine off of eBay
I don’t see any video you make ac drier or air conditioning .. there ac drier line short on right side. Nobody have it. Can I re-use ?
I rip factory ac stuff out.. it’s not worth messing with if the system has been opened.. I’m running vintage air
Can I have your email please

Chris - do you have any experience re-assembling '72 Cutlass headlights?
I've never messed with a cutlass. I thought they would be the same as a chevelle
No they Aren't. Chevelles(at least 68's) are MARKED with an A or B on the Bucket(GM mfg) A=Outer B=Inner. 72 Cutlass has Different Letters Stamped in them as the Adj Bolts are Clocked Differently than Chevelles thus the Bulb Notch Holes are Also Clocked Differently. I Know because I Put 72 Cutlass H/L Buckets on a 68 Chevelle(am Selling) and FIGURED this Out. Cut New Notches where Needed.
C…D…..B…..A. Passenger side to driver side……😜
