    Bro, people always ask me where I learned how to work on my 70 Chevelle and I tell them, I learned it all on youtube, specifically your channel! Looking forward to more videos!

    Thank you, your videos are helping me with my 70' GS. Your attention to detail and fully showing your work is better than anything else I can find. I hope to see it farther along, but I know how it goes with having other vehicles to maintain, and of course a tight budget. Some videos they throw thousands of dollars around like it's no big deal, but I like your style, very good work, best you can DIY, don't have to be perfect.👍

    Keep it up Chris! I’ve had my 68 since 1976 as a small block. You’ve inspired me to make it a big block. I put the 12 bolt and th400 in back then when I built the 327. I really enjoy your appreciation for important details and no nonsense. You make it fun to watch. Don’t get to upset. Oops that makes me a hypocrite. Please keep up the good work. Thanks again.

    Thanks Chris I have been following your vids while rebuilding my own Chevelle and it has helped me so much, I appreciate your honest presentation of this rebuild and whenever I need a little motivation I watch your front suspension install (SPC fully adjustable upper control arm chevelle install and how to DIY) especially the part about gettin off your ass and doing it. Perhaps when my Chevelle is finished I can send you a pic. But will be watching all that you post.

    Your videos are great man. I have been working on my chevelle since 2009. You have no idea how much your wiring videos helped me. Unfortunately I blew a rod bearing so its without power. But it's really close. Good luck with your paint booth!

    Good looking chevelle. I'm building my 67 chevelle. In middle of a engine rebuild now. Small block 350. Just got done with metal work. Bodywork in final prime. I know how long it takes. I've been 12 yrs so far.

  • @idsubgun
    @idsubgun 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thanks Chris, for all your videos. They have helped me tremendously on my '70 El Camino. I'm taking a plain Jane El Camino (307 w/ Turbo 350) and am putting in a 454 w/4-speed (BW Super T10).
    My 454 is about ready to put in, and I just ordered a rear end. I seriously doubt my 8.2" 10 bolt would take much thrashing from the 454 so not being a purist, I went with a 9" Ford from Quick Performance.
    Thanks again!!!

    for fuckin real, i was pretty proud of how tits mine was looking, hadnt painted yet but the little bit of bondo id done on it was primered and invisible, looked factory straight, and... i WATCHED with my eyes, the night a goddamn cypress tree buried the whole thing... uh, yeah, kick in the guts, but really the trunk lid was the only dent...i can stare at that thing pissed for hours, though, when really, i just gotta find me a new lego part.
    (well, not "new"... ive heard of nightmares, and cant imagine myself a "suprise!" aftermarket lid looking and fitting on my '70 mali like...like it would if it was made in 1970.
    ive heard skylarks are the same trunk... while looking around...but heck, it'd be an honor to use the one ive watched on youtube a bunch of times... how much$?

    Heh Chris - I’m a Chevelle guy also. Watched your door assembly video - good stuff! Looking for help - I have several Chevelles that have been sitting for over twenty years. I have a problem know... the doors won open and I cNt get inside. Any thoughts on what I can do? A few cars I can crawl through an open window and get to latch from the inside. Not having luck either way. I would say that the latch itself won’t retract due to corrosion. No they are not locked.
    Any help would be appreciated. I’m on FB (messenger or email is wrwd3@yahoo
    Thanks 😎

    • @chriscraft77022
      @chriscraft77022  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      of course you spray the mechanism with PB blast.. do it from the inside.. you may have to take back glass out or whatever to get in.. hold the door lever open with channel locks and kick it outward as hard as you can right in the center where the latch is.. thats how ive opened many stuck doors..
