    I bought one new in 1969 when I came home from Veitnam butternut yellow black vynil top 396 4 speed no air no power steering just all horse power. I want to buy from you guys hopefully someday.

      It is a Malibu with an SS hood no radio gear should be 373 or 411, dash is broken, window regulator needs to be replaced. Around 15000 tops

    The off center steering wheel was erking me so bad. Such an easy fix/adjustment along with the broken horn. Nice car. Like the 69yr chevelle. Id def swap those wheels out tho

      the car has potential a few hours work and some money to fix the little things and some work on the paint sand a clear coat it. I'd like to hear some more cam in it too and some more compression.

      I think it's because a lot of these old cars has been Rebuilt from the ground up, and that can cost anywhere from 50 to even over 100 thousand dollars to do, depending how much rust damage they may have, but when you try to resale them you're not gonna even get half of your money back that you put into rebuilding them, so the previous owners don't even bother to fix the simple little things on them, cause they don't want to put more money into them.

    I've been a fan of classic old cars since I was 7 or 8 years old. My fav is 69 Z-28 (like the tat on my leg). However, enjoying your videos - I am undecided if I keep coming back to your channel because of the cars you test drive, the format of your videos I find informative, or YOUR VOICE!! Most likely, it's the combination of all three. Well...and, you are very handsome (I'm sure your wife is very beautiful & loving) - and, you seem to have much knowledge of cars. I keep coming back to your channel & I always leave with a huge smile!! Thank you...much gratitude to you!!

    I'm figuring 30 miles an hour the tachometer pretty close to 2600 RPM feels like the converter is about a 3000 stall and I would guess the rear end gears might even be 410 to be holding that motor up tight like that I used to drag race all the time and that's my estimates maybe I'm right maybe I'm wrong but I love the way you have your website setup keep up the good work from Niagara Falls New York the Rust Belt capital of the world where you can buy a new car 2 years later there's no trunk left in it cuz of the rust and salt

    I love the blue on this one I think it would be even better with a set of black chrome wheels . Their are to things in life that are for sure one is ...I can get on a Harley or anything with two wheels and it will rain the other is ...I can start to go to Maple motors to look at the cars on my day off even if I'm down the street at Accademy Sports and when I head that way it will poor down rain. But I love the looks of that Hotrod having, looks like a car show going on every day. This is my rant sorry about that but I would like to say I'm glad y'all have these cars I'd heck of a lot rather start with a full driving car and finish the little things like the horn and detent cables and things like that after the previous owner has already sunk the fortune into it. Allot of people just don't realize most of the time the one that had the car sold it because they went broke and couldn't finish. It takes allot of money to build one of these right . Theirs my rant .

Thing is no matter what there's rides are 30 yrs plus old there gonna need some repairs mostly personal taste. It's amazeing how folks in Texas likes there rims as ppl up north . can here the torque converter may have done a trick out change on it for that QUATER mile pull. But a easy fix if ur a old school gear head can make a highway car or down the way one..personal taste ..like these wheels heck the whole car is nice. Way to go Maple Motor..

    Not an SS Chevelle. Badges are wrong. Transmission seems to not shift properly. Missing dome light lens. Wrong window regulator. Turn signals are blocked by the tac. Engine idles too high. Lifter tick? No radio. Speedometer faulty, gas gauge(s) not working. Need to fix that steering wheel alignment and horn. Needs to be made right before offering it for sale. But is a very nice looking Chevy.
