I bought a 68 Z-28 in 68. It was an RS model with the covered headlights (vacuum operated), 4-11 gears and a four speed. It was OK, but I soon sold it and bought a 67 Corvette, which I liked much better. List on the Z-28 was about $3700.
i picked up a 67 ss rs 427 yenko camaro 1/2 restored with a 68 ss 396 that had not been started on restoration both cars had good clean body rust free with a 79 chevy short box 4x4 full option truck just needed a fuel pump and carb clean with under 35,000 miles on in mint condition all parked in a shop with 15 other rigs outside all free so they could put the ranch up for sell for 8.2 million with tools engines and lots of parts i call it my holly grail find
Just out of the Marines in 1974 I bought a 1970 cortes silver Chevelle SS 396/402 automatic, black buckets seat and console for 1500.00 it didn't have one spot of rust . A year later, I broke off the top of a push rod and didn't know how to adjust that valve and sold it for 1500.00 thinking I was doing great getting my money back, what a mistake !
@@blurredcarz ... I know , but back in 1974 these cars cost 2000.00 . I once looked to buy a 1969 427 Camaro for 1,000.00 but didn't buy it. don't think it was the original eng.

@@napoliansolo7865 I'll agree to a point as they are both GM models yeah you could compare the Caprice to a Cadillac Sedan Deville though almost a foot shorter the Deville of the time was 18.42 ft long while the Caprice classic was 17.75 Ft long and had square headlights while the 4th gen had bugeye/fried egg style headlights

1970 LS6 454 with a rock Crusher 4-speed probably a convertible black with the White Stripes yeah that's the one I picked second runner up would be the ZL1 Camaro
I live in the country and I have a neighbor who has one just sitting out in his field in great condition. He’s a hoarder so he won’t give it up for anything.
My friends older brother had what looked like a '63 El Camino with probably a 327 or larger V8 with 4 on the floor. I caught a ride and felt the power on that back in the 60's.
I had a '69 El Camino back in 1987-1991. It was not the SS, but had everything it had only with a bench seat. 350, 4-barrel. I really miss it. My 1st car was a '73 Buick Regal with a 455, 400 turbo trans, mechanical Quadra-jet... Unbelievable power.
The 1969 Yenko Novas were SS 396 cars that Don Yenko converted , Chevrolet wouldn't install a 427 in a Nova as they considered it as too dangerous . But they had no problems installing factory 427s in COPO Malibu's and Camaros .

Worst thing you can do to a car is not run it. Engines and parts need motion, or they dry up and start to deteriorate. Engines in particular need to be run, or internals will start to eat into each other, rings will get a compressed memory, and seals will dry rot.
@@blurredcarz ,this is a great channel,keep it coming the beach boys wasn't lying about that 409 and that manual 4 speed,I didn't mean too offend, you if I did,I sorry,I think the mayor of Providence,Ri have a original 1 and I thought it was a land yacht that damn thing is fast even now plus that mayor of Providence,Ri can drive banging through them gears,you might be right about the z11 427 being in the impala,that my first time ever hearing that plus I'm still learning an still young,but that 348/409 will make the mighty 427 and the mighty 454 and the mighty 396 think twice real quick,if you got the right driver
@blurred,you were right about the z11 427,but they put the 283,409,327,the drag race version of the z11 and solid lift cam in the 409 ss with 4.56 to 1 gears and a 4 speed manual transmission,but the z11 427 is super rare they only built 57 z11's while the 409 had alot built well over 100,000 but still hard to find in decent shape if it can be restored originally, even with money it's going to take at least 2 years+ to do it right especially if it has alot of rust
@markrapacki5855 ,I don't know too much about it, because,I'm in my mid 30's,so I have to do more research, you could be right also,I don't know about the z11 too much, but the 63 impala did came with a hand full of engine options, I know about the 409 had 3 variations of that engine 1#340 hp with hydraulic roller cam,2# 400 hp with solid roller cam,3# 425 hp solid roller cam with4:56gears with a 4 speed manual with a good driver and you got problems with that 3rd version of the 409,also that impala is 19 feet long, so automatically thought it was at least 4000 lbs with driver, I was sadly mistaken,it's actually lighter than a 69 Copo Camaro with 427,Camaro's are front heavy cars,an now you bought that 600 hp stock intention to me??600 hp stock😳,hell no,evven for a big block,even I know better than that

@@blurredcarz so I went and looked at the Barrett Jackson books I bought it was 2012 and the ZL1 was lot #5010 page 5:76 in the block book.

I was recovering from 7 broke ribs and broken shoulder blade at same time still had a good time thanks to Oxycodone’s. But got lots of pictures and saw a 68 Camaro just like mine was getting painted at that time so I was able to see what to expect my buddies dad didn’t think he would like the colors but after he saw that one he says yeah your cars going to look sweet lol 😂
I could be wrong but I think the '65 Impala SS was a much more collectable than the '63. I had a '68 boat I'd show and the '65s seem to get all the attention.
#1 for me would be the 1963 Super Duty 421 Pontiac Tempest/Lemans. Then a 1969 RamAir Vl Pontiac Trans Am. The Z11 Impala would be my choice amung these Chevy cars, after a 1973 Super Duty 455 Pontiac Trans Am.

@@craigellsworth3952 that’s a good combo. Well over 400 Lb Ft of Tq. The 1964 Hi Compression 389 that came in my tempest when I bought it back in 1995, came from a 1964 Bonniville Taxi. The 350Thm that was behind it came from a 1976 T/A. My current 1969 four bolt main 400/406 came from a low mileage like new GrandPrix that was rolled at low speed. My current Transmission is a 200-4r I pulled from a rolled 1987 Buick GNX. It’s built with Warranty to withstand up to 900Lb ft of Tq with lock up built for racing Hi Stall torque converter. There are many,many more tricks up my Tempest,s sleeves. It’s a QA1 R&D test car with fully adjustable built for racing suspension amung a lot of others
Watching this makes ask if in general with the exception of these rare muscle cars does buying a car, regular but cool car new, keeping it factory fresh do they just keep up with or do better than inflation ?
As a nova owner id have to say id want the yenko nova….even though i have a built high compression cammed etc etc zl1 supercharged 6.2 in my nova that makes double the power of an orignal yenko, its just not worth the anount of money😊……i wanna get it stroked so i can change the 6.2 badges to actual 427 badges without feeling like a poser😂

The 67 Shelby Cobra 427 Super Snake was the only car from the muscle car era to come from the factory with over 800 horses under the hood, So why does Chevy and dodge act like they were the power kings, they couldn’t compete even with the corvette against this machine. And no dodge ever came close. The muscle car era was owned and maintained by Shelby
How about a very rare 1967 Chevy nova with the 1968 body design with the smokie yunics 396/427 mystery motor munchies m21 transmission 6 where made for racing they where the pre runners prior to the copo/yenko novas pre super sport guaranteed 6 second 1/4 mile times or your money back from the factory they never refunded any money back on those cars yes I had one of those nova's in my collection a few years ago how about doing a story on these unicorns of cars
Best of all it was a street legal car it was never supposed to be anywhere other than the factory race teams i got mine from the original driver/owner with pictures of the car scraping the bumper at half track first time out at a Louisiana track still had the scrapes on the back bumper when I got it
Uh, are we 'bench' racing? I hope so. When bench racing outrageous bullshit is allowed. If not, well, then you're simply full of crap. Six second passes in a Nova in 1967? NFW, dude. At the 67 WinterNationals the AA/FD (predecessor to to day's Top Fuel cars) dragster owned by the Creitz & Greer team, with driver Gene Goleman at the wheel, set a new NHRA ET record at 7.26 seconds and was runner-up at the event. And you're telling us a full-bodied, gasoline-fueled, normally aspirated 67 Nova was at least a 1/4 second quicker? Bullshit! Now, sit your butt back down on the bench and resume the only real racing you obviously know anything about at all.

@@craigellsworth3952 that’s a good combo. Well over 400 Lb Ft of Tq. The 1964 Hi Compression 389 that came in my tempest when I bought it back in 1995, came from a 1964 Bonniville Taxi. The 350Thm that was behind it came from a 1976 T/A. My current 1969 four bolt main 400/406 came from a low mileage like new GrandPrix that was rolled at low speed. My current Transmission is a 200-4r I pulled from a rolled 1987 Buick GNX. It’s built with Warranty to withstand up to 900Lb ft of Tq with lock up built for racing Hi Stall torque converter. There are many,many more tricks up my Tempest,s sleeves. It’s a QA1 R&D test car with fully adjustable built for racing suspension amung a lot of others
Watching this makes ask if in general with the exception of these rare muscle cars does buying a car, regular but cool car new, keeping it factory fresh do they just keep up with or do better than inflation ?
Thanks for watching!
YENKO!
The best!
A couple others to add to this list, 1965 Z-16 Chevelle, 1961 Impala SS 409, 1967 Camaro Z-28, 1969 Corvette ZL-1.
Thanks! Happy new year
You forgot the 1965 Chevelle Z16 396. 425 hp
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment!
As a nova owner id have to say id want the yenko nova….even though i have a built high compression cammed etc etc zl1 supercharged 6.2 in my nova that makes double the power of an orignal yenko, its just not worth the anount of money😊……i wanna get it stroked so i can change the 6.2 badges to actual 427 badges without feeling like a poser😂
The Yenko Nova is my favorite also.
If you have double the power, what is the point?
@@craigellsworth3952 to have triple!!!!
@@trentdawg2832 Then you burn off the rear tires that much faster. 🤣
A 427 in a little Nova...Just WILD...in the Best Way !
That Nova wasn't fixed up as much as it should have been. 396 SS. 68.
Thanks for watching!
Z-11 409
Thanks for watching our videos!
67 Chevy L88 Corvette Coupe
Maybe the greatest muscle car ever built! Thanks for watching the video. Stay tuned for my muscle car content!
@@blurredcarz yeah it is

Corvettes are not muscle cars, they are sports cars. A muscle car is a two door mid sized coupe with a large V8.
Thanks for watching
At 52, me and idiot buddy's sold or ruined a lotta these cars. Still kicking ourselves in the ass!
I had a 69 GTO and I kick myself every day. Thanks for watching our video.
Why the misleading the 71 Camaro on the thumbnail
The 67 Shelby Cobra 427 Super Snake was the only car from the muscle car era to come from the factory with over 800 horses under the hood, So why does Chevy and dodge act like they were the power kings, they couldn’t compete even with the corvette against this machine. And no dodge ever came close. The muscle car era was owned and maintained by Shelby
The 67 Shelby Cobra is the best muscle car ever built. Thanks for watching!
You could almost retool a factory for the Price of #1...
you are 100% correct on this. They are expensive!
You seem to have forgotten the absolute rarest and most expensive of all Chevrolet’s ever made… The 1969 ZL1 Corvette…
Thanks for watching
whenever i see a 70 chevelle, i become slightly aroused
I thought I was the only one that felt that way! 😂 Thanks for watching my videos
the 63 ss was a bmf!
Thanks for checking out my channel
Ok a 1970 Buick GS 455 stage 1 was the fastest production vehicle built period.
Thanks for checking out my channel
1968 chevelle ss 396/375
One of the greatest cars ever created. Stay tuned for future videos that focus only on the Chevelle. Thanks for watching our videos!
A lot of corvettes had 4:56 gears with four speed tranny to match and they were highway cars.
Thanks for watching our videos
"Pony" cars are NOT muscle cars. Neither are sports cars such as the Corvette.
Thanks for watching our video
What's a Forged Holley
Thanks for watching!
STILL waiting for GM to do a retro 2nd Gen. Camaro..... their 1st Gen. retro.......has been out *way too long*
I 100% agree with you!
Unfortunately Chevy will be discontinuing the Camaro in 2024.
speak of the real horsepower and torque numbers!! not the advertised horsepower
No offense intended, but after the Z11 rundown, I can’t even clean my boots, gonna have to throw them out. I did, however, enjoy the video.
Thanks for watching!
Look up COPO Camaro, then post a retraction.
Thanks for checking out my channel!
Lots of incorrect info
Thanks for watching
Im a mopar guy lol
The 66 makes the 70 look like a pregnant dog
100% lol
The rarest Chevrolet ever built was a '69 ZL1 Corvette. There were only 2 that were factory built.
😎😎

Hard to argue with that! Thanks for watching my channel
I got Dolly pregnant in a Stingray once...
Liar.
Not a lot of room in a stingray. I’m impressed! 😂
How about a very rare 1967 Chevy nova with the 1968 body design with the smokie yunics 396/427 mystery motor munchies m21 transmission 6 where made for racing they where the pre runners prior to the copo/yenko novas pre super sport guaranteed 6 second 1/4 mile times or your money back from the factory they never refunded any money back on those cars yes I had one of those nova's in my collection a few years ago how about doing a story on these unicorns of cars
67 Nova is my favorite body style Nova! Beautiful
car!
Gee 6 second quarter mile time was equal to top fuel dragsters back then no roll cage too.super stocks were running about 10 or 11 second runs
They used the same motor that was banned from nascar back in the day in those 6 cars
Best of all it was a street legal car it was never supposed to be anywhere other than the factory race teams i got mine from the original driver/owner with pictures of the car scraping the bumper at half track first time out at a Louisiana track still had the scrapes on the back bumper when I got it
Uh, are we 'bench' racing? I hope so. When bench racing outrageous bullshit is allowed. If not, well, then you're simply full of crap. Six second passes in a Nova in 1967? NFW, dude. At the 67 WinterNationals the AA/FD (predecessor to to day's Top Fuel cars) dragster owned by the Creitz & Greer team, with driver Gene Goleman at the wheel, set a new NHRA ET record at 7.26 seconds and was runner-up at the event. And you're telling us a full-bodied, gasoline-fueled, normally aspirated 67 Nova was at least a 1/4 second quicker? Bullshit! Now, sit your butt back down on the bench and resume the only real racing you obviously know anything about at all.
YENKO CARS WERE DEALER BUILT. THEY DID NOT COME FROM CHEVY LIKE THAT.
Thanks for watching our videos
LS6 WERE PIGS! 69 427 SS CHEVELLE IS FAR SUPERIOR!
Hard to argue with that
