- Rare special paint procedure Shadow grey with special white RPO D88 hood and deck stripes 1970 LS6 SS454 Chevelle found in the mountains of Virginia hidden nearly 40 years.
As usual sir you are the MASTER. I was a technician in the Chevrolet dealership here on the Oregon Coast from 1966 thru 1972, and I have to tell you that these cars you feature bring back a whole flood of memories, THANK YOU SIR......
dave C: i bet you had to fight your other coworkers to work on a car of that time...
cew142 not hardly..... the other technicians at the dealership wanted nothing to do with those cars with as they said NERVOUS MOTORS.... in 1966 I was just a snot nosed kid of 18 years old, I was in heaven,,,, I got all of the high performance cars ....... NOBODY would touch them,,,,,I loved my job😃
dave C i bet you did love your job! I would have too..
cew142 the best part was when finished with repairs I JUST HAD TO ROAD TEST THEM.....
Racing truck motors ol timers called em ate valves and guides rapidly. Those hi po cars were thrashed. And beat and then junked or stripped......Sad
Another awesome chevelle. Thank you for your hard work Patrick. Some guys get the good jobs
This is a beautiful machine. Ive wanted one of these for as long as i can remember.
Thank you for taking the time to show us these incredible cars that we would otherwise never get to see.
This video just motivated me to go drive my 68 SS that has been parked all winter
I don't know how you manage to keep finding these Chevelles. I'm becoming fascinated by this particular year, make, and model.
Bauman had several dealerships in the Pittsburgh area. He had a pontiac dealer as well that was pretty famous for ordering some hi-performance cars. Us yinzers love our muscle cars!
Hell yeah thanks for bringing us these car's Patrick
Nice! I worked with a special order paint "Hugger Orange" 70 Chevelle, not on the order sheet for '70. Great car and nice find here too
Digging that dual snorkel, never knew they had them, and don't trust old tires, no matter how nice they look .
I wouldnt trust those old tires if they were brand new...its crazy how we drove back in the day on those tires.

Happy Easter too all... Same as C.G.of MInn; Enjoyed watching this video on April 21, 2019, car born on April 21, 1970... Thank you Patrick....
When I was 18, you could buy a ten year old 70 chevelle SS 396 for about $900.00, an LS6 would run you about $1300.00, I bought my 70 Buick GSX (car #125) instead for $1800.00....
Interesting times. I was 16 in '86.
My first car was a 1968 SS Chevelle. $1150.
Drunk driver took me out in 1992.
My friend found it in a barn 30 miles away, still crashed. Some guy is hoarding Chevelle's.
My Superbird for 2500. Yep a muscle car with no rust in the quarter panels was an 1800 dollar car. 1200 would buy a pretty good lower miles ride.
In 1985 when I was 17
I purchased a 1968 charger Se 383 4 barrel for $175
running!! a little rust ..
Bought a parts car for a $100.00
2 months later ,running ,bent frame
Sold the parts over the next couple years for thousands....😁
My 1st car was a 72 Chevelle SS..paid $1200 for it in 78.
Nice job Patrick. Thank you for detailed information. You’re a good teacher.
when you run across a 396 car with 19 19 stamped above the two dashes you can thank me for that, it was 1977 and a $1300 car that I wanted black! thanks for the videos, again
your videos rock man! :) thank you for them! love these old cars!
Nice find, Patrick your like the Chevelle Mafia
One of the best holy Grails ever I just hope the owner put the White Stripes back on
it looks good with the black stripes too
@@jeremystrickland7767 it does look good with a black stripe yes indeed 👏🏽but with the White Stripes it's a unicorn super rare . Something you don't see every car show
@@turbo6598 yes sir i agree
Yet ANOTHER GREAT Find , Patrick !
Great video Patrick. Always appreciate your attention to detail of the vehicles.
Good video patrick! Love the heavy chevys.
Once again depressed that I don't have one of these .Super nice car THANKS for the video.
Love this 70 so nice one of few left thank you
Graduating In 70 all the guys in school had muscle cars , Hemi's, Hurst Olds, Boss 429's, 440 Road Runners , LS 6's, everything you could imagine,, what a great time not to mention gas .30 a gallon...
Man I love these reviews.
thats one sharp chevelle love the colors
Its a miracle any of these survived at all. They were eight hundred, thousand dollar cars throughout the eightys maybe a little more with a four speed high school parking lots were full of em.
My two older brothers bought many classic cars for $1500 in the mid 80s in Florida. Then my brother sold his freshly painted 57 chevy 2 door post for $3500 and he thought he won the lottery. He also bought a running Rambler for $150 out of junkyard. Lol.
I got news for ya!! Ain't no flipping millennial that could handle this beast!! It would eat their damn lunch and their dinner!? Lol!!
Great video thank you Patrick, I hade to wipe the drool off my face towards the end....
Pretty pretty thank for sharing
Alright Mr. Doyle! Thanks for ordering a beautiful beast for us to enjoy many moons and generations down the road. Thanks again for you too Patrick for bringing us this presentation and the present owner being so cool to let it happen. Happy Easter y'all and God bless.▪☆☆☆▪
70 chevelle and a 69 rs camaro. wow...cool toys
I was born in 67 so I grew up these cars, but did not appreciate them until the 80s. Wish I bought one of them. Had a 72 Nova but I crashed it. I always wanted a 70 Chevelle. Love the quad headlights.
Thankyou didn't know about the front bumpers!
between this car and a '67 427 impala , this is all I want ! beautiful car , man!
Patrick this is a pretty cool Chevelle! Looks like the owner has a 69 RS Camaro in the garage as well! A pretty lucky guy!
love those chevelles.
Had Camino was stolen. Bucket
Ist is ! SS Wgon buckets floor shift. And. Handling. Package
Wow awsome, car love this channel. Will share.
another treasure......very awesome channel
Cool car. I remember in the early 80s me and my buddy punched off at 40 mph against a 1970 chevelle ss with 454 badges. Car was white with green stripes. It left us like we were sitting still. Never saw that car again, or another one like it. I'm thinking it was a fresh custom paint job.
Great job pat your best I love what I do brother.
Great review. Loved to hear that M22 whine.
1st!!! And I have a yen for an LS6 ElCamino... I've seen a number of GM cars over the years with special paint colors. Including a 1964 Riviera with Chrysler turbine gold, and a 65 Catalina 2 + 2 convertible ordered for a GM executive, very low vin, with the same Chrysler turbine car gold.
Crank ER up!!!!;
Noticed the Hurst Ram Rod shifter...brings back lot of memories.
That is a nice LS-6 car! Wish they would have repainted it with the white stripes!
Patrick,
It would make sense why people in Pittsburgh wanted a Chevelle with gold stripes with a black paint. They were all long time Pittsburgh Steelers fans. The LS6 look pretty good with the chrome valve covers and the OEM dual snokel black air cleaner.
The Steelers color NFL
Love the rare or unusual color combinations. The non black vinyl tops. Non black and white interior. Just makes the iconic car all the more unique.
That car was made on April 21 1970. Funny I'm watching this on April 21 2019!
'2#○sro saw"44?? S.(.[[4#○.I'd 3÷,the the
Great find!
Awesome. I know I said this before, you have a Matthew McConaughey voice. Thx for your hard work n vids
The 396 Chevys were badass fast ass cars. Only competition were Road Runners, Mach1/ Boss 302 Mustangs, Challengers & SS Camaros, Challengers & a few others.
Love the vertical Gate shifter
Hi Patrick, back in those woods, looks like there a possibility of alot of fish to fry
Woooow freaking nice some people have all the luck
Great video, I bought a 1968 Chevelle brand new, and love these cars. I have learned so much from watching your videos, thank you so much.
Hey Patrick, for those tags that are hard to make out maybe you could keep a piece of paper and pencil handy so you can lay the paper over the tag and gently go over the suface with the pencilto bring out those hard to otherwise read numbers/letters. I feel like a fool giving a tip to a pro, and it could be something that you already practice, but just in case I wanted to pass it on.
Another great video and much appreciate all the hard work.
My wife's 396/350 is shadow grey. Wonderful color.
Twice as many ls6 cars out there than were ever produced, just like the 435 vette
Oh man is she a beauty!
Paint is different shades in passenger door and elsewhere! Nice car though! Thanks for sharing
my dad worked at Jim Robbins for years and years, thats who made the seat-belts (look close at the white tag)
Gorgeous
I had a 1971 Chevrolet sport coupe with bucket seats and a floor shifter with a console. It was painted in Aztec Silver which looks a lot like this car.
Very nice car its the best year !
beautiful
First things first, these videos are awesome, can't get enough.
Someone help an old Ford guy out, how many different plants actually built these things??
My 69 Chevelle Malibu Sports had an automatic bucket seats with the 400 turbo transmission
Very cool
That aftermarket shifter is an eyesore.
Nice, I'd take her out for a cruise every couple weeks here in Northeast Texas, no salt here
Black with gold in Pittsburgh is for the Steelers. There is a museum in Myrtle Beach SC with all sorts of classic cars and the guy has a SS Chevelle with Carolina blue with white stripes for UNC.
looks like aftermarket trunk lid.nice car
Alright Alright Alright, you sound like Wooderson off Dazed and confused showing off his car lol
As is common with cheaper repro parts, the quality is lower. With the bumper, those sharp lines are harder to stamp, requiring more care (binder force & stamping speed control) to draw lines like that.
It is/was common for special order items to come from a few select dealers as they took the time to learn how to use the special order system (e.g. Yenko). As he notes, the scarcity makes these cars that more desirable.
Eagle ST were definitely good tires!!!
Nice old car!
I wish that GM made the ZL2 hood and the gauge pkg std equipment and raised the price of the SS. With these 2 RPO's, it just makes the car. That pass door looks like a different shade of paint unless it's the lighting. I'm surprised that the people that ordered these cars new didn't want the gauge pkg or ZL2 flapper. With the ZL2 you automatically got hood pins. Hood pins did not come on non ZL2 hoods. Nice car, I wonder if the M22 has an overdrive unit mounted at the end of the tail housing due to the extra shifter leaver.
It's a reverse lock out
Nice review. I just wish that you could have told us a bit more about the paint on this car and paint codes.
Sweet!
Hi Glenn, very informative videos I’m from Australia and have VE Ssv commodore what you call a Pontiac G8 .
Love your videos don’t know how you remember all the details from the I d tag
It is called time and research!! Then it's second nature!!
Mr. Nichols I always enjoy your videos, as they are very instructive. I have been wanting to ask you this question. Do you own any Chevelle's? If so, could you do a video on them? Thanks!
Thanks for the video.Awesome Car for sure..Does it still have the #s matching engine?
Lovely Chevelle; wish there was a picture with the white stripes. Why did the dual snorkel option exist? For oval track performance was this preferred over cowel induction?
Nice car
Back in the late 70's early 80's ,, we would drive the mortal crap outa those cars,, had no idea they were future potential retirement plans
LS6 and M22! It doesn’t get any more Muscle than this car!!
Wilkinsburg pa!!?!?? Back in the day, pittsburgh had a lot. Music and cars!
I had the same question on the holes in the hood in a buddies 70 SS. Can you say that is original hood? It's funny my buddies could be the twin. The only thing different is he put a 427 in his after blowing up the original 454.
My favorite muscle car
Another great video, so interesting. I have a question, did all cars back in the day or even present day have a build sheet hiding somewhere in the car?
William Kiser no sir definitely not every car.
dude your 👍👍👍🤘
My friend had a 1970 El Camino SS454 4-SPD n don't know if it was a LS6
In 1979, I bought a car just like this same color but just a 2dr Chevelle with a straight 6 250 CI 3speed on the tree for $350, and gave it to my High School girlfriend for her 18th birthday!
😍😍
These cars need to be started. Would love to hear the engines, not just look at stats, etc.
some times the owners may not let him but i agree i would like to hear it run too
Jeremy Strickland for sure 454s usually sound pretty good.
I have a suburban 454 engine sound video if you want to hear it 🎶
@@missingremote4388 It's just not the same! Lol
@@joecebu2791 youre right + mine idles above 1000 RPMS. Even when it's at operating temps. Sounds horrendous on video.
Owner....Repaint those stripes today!!! I can't sleep at night now that I know this. Until then, I will send you my therapists bills. Lmao.
He needs to repaint the whole car and stripes
If not repainted correct will lose hundreds of millions in value
Factory question did it come with AC and heat
Hi Patrick love your video have you ever find a convertible chevelle 1970?
Is that the Hurst V-gate shifter?
Black and Gold for perhaps Pittsburgh Steeler pride? I'm thinking that some dealers in the area may have done that, especially if the owner was also a football fan. A lot of things could be done at the dealer if one was willing to pay for it.
Na. Black and Gold for Purdue!
@@Mr-er6fg A lot of dealer "conversions" back then. If the customer was willing to pay, they would give you hot pink with a green racing stripe. LOL.
I have a special color L S 6 Rally Green white stripe electric windows have owned for over thirty years.
Maybe I missed it in the video but it is the current owner to blame for the vehicles new paint configuration? On the build sheet someone highlighted the uniqueness of the paint scheme by circling it. Was it by the new or previous owner?
