Reinstall the motor and original trans, clean it from top to bottom, lightly buff the paint, and be the envy of most muscle car owners....bullet holes and all!! Incredible find!! Thanks Patrick!!
I hate that the car had to sit for so long. But I do appreciate the fact that they kept it indoors. I respect your work and what you do with authenticating and showing videos of these cars. Keep up the good work.
Man, what a great job documenting the car Patrick. You need to make a purchase on this if you can. Sounds like the ultimate SS combo! Sitting that long and it's in relatively great shape. Glad they decided to store the car inside, makes all the difference.
I , Archived this automobile " Great Representation " ! Thank You very much Mr Patrick 👍 , I , really appreciate getting to see this ultimate Muscle Car time machine . Thanks to the Owner for taking good care of it !
You're a busy bee, I wish I had your talent and tenacity because that's what it takes to do what you do, thank you sir, you give me hope to find one , one fine day I may find me that chevelle I've been searching for
Wow !!. Thank the owner for showing it that car is correct correct and correct !! That car is Epic I can't believe what I see here and they have the Original 454 !! I almost smash my phone jumpin. Around !!
Very straight clean car wow, the bullet holes front and back that was a close one or two, adds character. can't fake the dust, so sweet. way cool find thank you for sharing.
Put it back together clean it up and leave the rest of the car alone bullet holes and all and just drive it . Another awesome car thanks for sharing it
cousin Delbert I’ve always been a Chevy guy but as I get older I’ve realized how badass mopars are so even though I’m still a Chevy guy I’m gonna try to get a 67-69 barracuda and 68-69 roadrunner or a 70-74 challenger or a 70-74 barracuda but that’ll be after I finish my 68 Chevelle 69 lookalike (69 nose and tail)
That is a nice find ,nice nice car! I hope one day you can do a follow up vid of it back on the road. In my opinion it don’t need much of a resto. Put the engine/trans in it and give it a bath it would be a beautiful car!
@@MaliciousSRT Especially back then scrap prices were really high. Let's say like $500 or so. People would have part them out for money too. What were they thinking?
@@trickyricky12147 They all rusted really bad too. A friends dad had a 73 challenger and he said by the late 70's it was so rotten you had to watch where you leaned on it!
@@MaliciousSRT Well.... especially Mopar No Fars. But to some extent I disagree. I believe that vehicles back then had thicker gage metal body panels and yeah certain vehicles tend to rot faster than others especially when you live in the northern region. He might've lived somewhere around that area, just my guess. Road salt is a big factor too.
Glenn, I'm 62, and growing up, a kid a few years younger than me had an LS-6 4 spd Black with white stripes, I know it was an LS-6 as I changed bent pushrods in it and the covers had never been off, the valves were out of adjustment, and after I replaced the bent pushrods and set the valves, he said go ahead and take it for a ride, at the time it was blindingly fast and the tires could not hold that car, it did also have a 4:10 and we talked about switching his posi and gear into my 67 350 camaro which was a 4spd/3:31 rs/ss Tahoe turquoise black vynal, we lived in Madison Heights, Michigan.
My brother has a 1970 Chevelle SS 396 and we were wondering if that car came factory with a holly 780 carburetor or was it a Quadrajet and if you wanted to do a walk-around of his car to share in the video he would probably be okay with that also if you want to get in touch with me just let me know a12 449 0122. We just finished having a repaint and interior work done and the engine cleaned up
Tuxedo black '70 Chevelle, LS6, M22, 4.10 rear, cowl induction, bucket seats... Man, if they find that original transmission and restore to concourse condition, it just might be a million dollar Chevelle... ...if not for those damn bullet holes and rigged up automatic shifter.
Just to let you know I have been a Ford fanatic for well over 50 years. Now that’s out of the way I have a lot of appreciation for this particular vehicle. It’s an old motorhead working on something like this would be a real wake up and a good kick in the pants.
Great video as always. I know where there is an all original, 25,000 mile L34 SS396 70 chevelle. Garaged I believe since 72 or 73. Saw the car years ago and almost fell over. At that time it had original everything.
Amazing car, that is my favorite that you've shown so far. That is something ill only be able to dream about, black ls6,it just doesn't get any better....great video once again thank you for what you do.
Great video Patrick, I always look forward to seeing your new videos. I currently have a 1973 Plymouth Duster but the Chevelles have always been my favorite muscle cars. It must be a very low mileage car since it was parked since 1974. I have never seen a LS6 car that didn't have the high red line tach before.
What a truly amazing find. I've always been a Mopar fan and have owned more than a few I wish I still owned today. With that being said I wouldn't be embarrassed to cruise this beauty down Wabash on any day of the week...
Great video. Thank you for putting these out I really enjoyed them. What an awesome find. Like you said anybody who’s into muscle cars would appreciate this car. Although I’ve on 14 late model mustangs over the years, I will always remember when I was younger I had a blue with white stripes 1970 Chevelle SS 454 1:18 scale model and I really loved it . I love muscle cars!
My old man should have kept his LS6 Chevelle from Scuncio Chevrolet. Blue with white stripes and black interior with buckets. I remember riding in the back of it. Must have been around 1972-1973 . I'm into cars and photos of cars, but not at that age ! I wonder where that car is today?
I remember when we picked the car up in Mystic, Connecticut from the original owner, the guy's girlfriend was crying as it was driven away! I still remember that. My father always said to me. " I should have never sold that car." Of all the cars that my father owned, he knew that he should have kept that car. I think the gas prices forced him to sell (I don't actually recall who bought it or why it was sold.) I was pretty young back then.
Patrick, another amazing find! The body on this chevy is amazing condition! I hope the owner leaves the bullet holes, excellent back story about young lovers! I highly respect your documentation of the automotive history it's spot on professional and informative. Thank you. Keep up the good work! I'm 70 years old and currently restoring a 1968 elcamino ss 396, 138 vin , black bucket seat, floor console, staple shift TH400 auto, 12 bolt rear, black vynal top, butter nut yellow , GM 5 spoke Steel wheels, in dash roller tach. Thanks again for the great job.
That's a beautiful SS they should restore it and put it back on the shame to have it sit there I restored to its natural beauty and put it back out for everyone to see
Love these videos he'll wish I could be on sight seeing as you see 👀🙂and experience the weeds , the dark dank barns robbing noses with these beautiful cars 🚗. THANKS FOR SHARING.
The cats are the only ones who cared about these cars all the time they were in the barn. You should bring it back and show the cats once restored, and video their reaction.
It's very rare back thenfor someone to remove a 4-speed and put in an automatic and go through the sequence of changing the pedals out and everything also normally the clutch pedal be left in the car
Story gets better every time you hear it. Dozens of cars like this rotted into the ground waiting to be restored. This one too, will probably end up in the trash heap. Owners/hoarders never let this go until they die. Their car, their choice.
Sweet Resto !! Doesn't look like too much work ! That is something of a find how many miles on the 454 ?? I think I like the 1969 COPO CHEVELLE WITH THE 427 !! GREAT VIDEOS PAT WISH I WAS WITH YOU ! DO A YEARS LATER FOLLOW UP SEGMENT PERHAPS. God Bless !
Reinstall the motor and original trans, clean it from top to bottom, lightly buff the paint, and be the envy of most muscle car owners....bullet holes and all!! Incredible find!! Thanks Patrick!!
First thing I thought, haha - definitely keep the bullet holes!
It crazy how many different plants built these Chevelles, great Channel
Amazing! An LS6 find sitting since 1974 would be exciting for anyone. I'm envious.
I hate that the car had to sit for so long. But I do appreciate the fact that they kept it indoors. I respect your work and what you do with authenticating and showing videos of these cars. Keep up the good work.
That car has been stored since I was in high school! I’m 63 now! I hope it gets restored leaving the bullet holes!
Another great LS6 find. How much fun would that be to show this car some well deserved Love after so many years.
Man, what a great job documenting the car Patrick. You need to make a purchase on this if you can. Sounds like the ultimate SS combo! Sitting that long and it's in relatively great shape. Glad they decided to store the car inside, makes all the difference.
The car is special. Your not special
That's the Holy Grail of Chevelle SS
Beautiful rust free body, wouldn't take a lot to put it back on the road! Thanks for this video Patrick!
Great video and story; I can hear Skynrd’s “Gimee Three Steps” from those bullet holes 🏁🏳️

Keep up the great work love to see all the videos you do an excellent job the 69 Chevelle with less than 2,300 miles is my favorite

I know the man personally that owns this car and I will leave it at that. This is a true original.
Really enjoyed the video, thank you Patrick.

What a rare find ,the owner must be very proud
No mention of those cab over Peterbut 352's. Those are serious collector items too!!!!
The red cabover truck was a white freightliner, the other was a Ford!
Another awesome find! Keep up the good work!
Thanks for taking us with, as always very informative. I believe that I'm catching on.

Enjoyed the video Patrick! More please
If that car were washed and carefully buffed, it would be very presentable. I don't know if I would restore it or not. Nice video.
Great job patrick!!!!

Beautiful piece of history, it is hard to imagine that something like this gets left to hang out, but times were different as I understand
damn patrick you are the man sir thanks for the videos
I love watching your barn finds another "epic" one for sure.
Another awesome video!
Cool stuff. Thanks for sharing.
You should do a follow-up on one of the car's you find, that is being restored. That would be awesome.

Awesome find!
I was wondering throughout the video abt the build sheet. And you addressed it at the end -👍🏻

Excellent 👍
The cats are the only ones who cared about these cars all the time they were in the barn. You should bring it back and show the cats once restored, and video their reaction.
That Ranchero looks dope with the cragars
The reason it’s a survivor is because it’s first years were rough . Stored early in the game .
Good thing it got out of flint.....it would be a rust bucket.
Another great find Patrick! Keep up the great work my friend. If you make it to SEMA this year, come see me at the 3M booth.
1970 Mercury Cougar! Love it. Wish they had not let that one go so long
Beautiful car. I hope to be one of the lucky ones to own one someday
Love that car
