My wife watches with me. She said…”I can’t believe he’s taking in another project. Poor Nick!” Nick, I love what you said at the open of this video. Some people never feel passion for anything. You motivate me to enjoy life. All the best to Leo. He has matured in a short time. Have a great week everyone.
Thanks for watching together!❤️
@@NicksGarage hi Nick
I like the patina on this car!
I would just build it solid. Make sure it was set up nice. Interior and underneath the car with modern components. disc brakes. put a four speed in it and a sure grip. I'd keep that body just the way it looks except with whatever body repairs that are necessary of course.
In fact you know what I would put on the rear quarter? A decal of a "can of worms."
@@NicksGarage what happened to Vasily?
omg I have my own 1970 charger I can not wait to start working on restoring!!! Thank you to my daddy. I came home in that car and now its mine!!!!
By far the best and most honest Mopar Channel on TH-cam!🙌
Nick and his crew are genuine and that’s why I like watching. Just honest car guys working on cars. No manufactured drama and fake banter.
After that custom bike building craze, this is therapeutic!
Sir, I would happily come and learn from you. My father taught me from 8 years old. Been to several schools. Two outstanding student achievement awards. Solid 4.0 perfect attendance, student Tudor, Eagle tech, earned student of the month. I’m 42, retired military, and a huge fan of what you and your guys do. Have built quite a few cars and trucks like my father and grandfather had. I remember an early ‘70s Chrysler New Yorker 440 power everything grandpa let me drive in town at 13years old.
Your charger man is Chris Birdsong in Las Vegas. He is a wizard and has a jig to put the car on to assure all dimensions are spot on.
That ol 1970 Charger is Smiling and saying Thank-you Lord for taking me to Nick !!! Watching 👀 it again...
Good luck Leo. Hope to see you again.
Nick youve done far more in your life helping people than most of us will ever do.... its time to take it easy and enjoy everyday at the shop from now on..
I’m So Glad your not retiring at this time. I’m disabled and I’m going crazy sitting at home day in and day out! If you Love what you do, like we all know you do, keep it up. Not everyone can make a living at something they love and are Passionate about! 💙
Nick, six years ago in the shop I volunteered we had a green 69 in the same condition,we painted it black ,two years later and $100,000 it was done. 66 year old Greek from San Francisco bay area thanks!
She is in good hands now. We all know that all she needs is the loving touch of all the maestros at Indie Auto to bring her back to her former glory. Cannot wait to see the transformation of this old gal.
Outstanding!
Another full rebuild. And it's a 1970 R/T Charger.
Sorry that Leo won't be able to get in on the action. But he had a great teacher.
23:37 that’s where the rear leaf hanger went through into the trunk on my Frost Green metallic ‘74 Charger. Loved that car.
If it was mine I would keep it the original color. But it's not mine so do what you will. Glad to see it getting fixed. Nick I have 1971 440 six pack Charger R/T that needs some help. Wow that was a big shock I was sad to see Leo leaving it put a tear in my eyes . Good luck to you Leo. Hope you find a good replacement Nick.
Leo. Sad to see you go but very happy for you that you found a job in the field you trained for. Good luck and all the best to you! Bill from Linglestown, Pennsylvania
We are all happy for Leo but I'll admit it's hard to watch him go.
Evening Nick. Well I know I asked and hoped for another build but dam that car needs some e serious work. But we all know it's going to turn out as good as the rest of them that have come through your workshop. It's so sad to see Leo leaving. If I lived in Canada I'd be knocking on your door to come and work for you. Can't wait to see the progress on the two projects running together now. All the best from South Africa. Regards Brendan
Good morning Nick and Crew! Since Eugene's Charger turned out so well, I think the Charger Bug bit you! I don't know you, but I can't imagine in your retirement sitting around watching the grass grow. I know you will always be wrenching on something till the cows come home. Thanks for restoring and fixing these Magnificent MoPar Muscle cars! Bill from Linglestown, Pennsylvania
Thanks Bill. We will leave the golf course clear for someone else for now.
well said Bill.
@@NicksGarage Dr. Nick, just think, you could build a golf cart with a hemi, or a 440,lol.
Ty Nick for passing your knowledge down to the youngsters. I was doing that in the construction biz for 25 years. Then Bush opened the gates for cheap labor. Put me and all my high school buds outta biz. So I drove a truck for 14 years. Ty for all you do.
Dude was very excited. I don't blame him.
Nick you are a genuine guy. We need someone like you to keep these beautiful cars on the road for future generations. Why retire, to me this is a dream job to work on these cars day after day.
Nick, my congratulations to you on getting another challenging restoration, seeing that smile on your face I know you definitively enjoy what you do. It will be fun to follow along on this restoration at Nick's Garage, and my congratulations to Leo in finding his job he wants and my best to him in his new work. A Black Charger with a bumblebee stripe is in Stéphane’s future!
Dr. Nick, all I can say is good luck on that 1970 Charger, and to Leo we will miss you, I know that you will do well in life, cheers.
No better way to start Monday off than watching Nick and his crew getting another Mopar classic to be restored. The '70 Dodge Charger R/T is going to be a real showstopper and head turner when Nick's Garage gets done! As always thank you Nick for posting yet another video as well as all your videos too.
Hello Nick you talked about retiring ,I remember when my father retired from 35 years of working for the same man , I think it lasted about a week then he went into the garage and started working again but this time for himself .When i asked him what he was doing he told me something I will never forget , When you do something you love it's not really a job . I most like what you said about passing on the things you know to the younger generation it is something i do also with younger people and have found that women have a real passion for learning new things that they are interested in .good luck with that 70 r/t i will be watching how that comes along . Have a good day .
Another one saved by Nick and crew. Black with Red stripe will look awesome.
Good luck with your new venture Leo. Sure you will pop in to see Nick.
Love to see this Nick, you are building another time machine...far more than just a restored car...a true time machine that can transport us back in time...what a fantasy!
Nick! This is a heart felt video! That couple that just brought in a rusty Charger are the luckiest people to be accepted for restoration by you a legend ! I hate passing of an era, retirement and good people moving on and a dying breed, I hate those words!!!!!! I totally appreciate such people as you that still exist and still rolling along doing what you do best, God bless you always !!
My thought exactly. You must remember the "torch has to be passed on" to the next generation. Its just the cycle of life which must go on. I wish Leo well in the diesel engine mechanic profession.
Amen to that ...I hate it too ...now many left like Nick ,Manny , Robert who have a passion for keeping these old Muscle Cars alive that we grew up with .
Good luck in your new endeavor, Leo. I know you will carry the memories you made with Nick’s long after men if Nick’s and my generation are gone.
Thank you Nick for the continued investment of your life and knowledge into the younger generations. The classic muscle cars will never go away with your love for the cars and kids.
I feel so bad that leo is leaving, I can tell a difference when Vasilly left...you couldnt help but see..now you have friends retiring, young guys moving on, and you talking about retiring..this rusty relic might be just what you need..im 63, had a 71 novass in high school, and am now rebuilding a 71 for drag and drives. maybe you should do one of those!! I got hurt, so i cant work like I did, I haulled steel for 32 years, then went on to fabricate.and swing wrenches ..If I lived in canada I would love to come work for you! Im a chevy guy, but who knows?? maybe an old chevy and old mopar guy could get something done! I hope this project feeds the flame.. it would be really sad to see it go out, God Bless Nick, your one in a million. Good luck Leo...Nick taught you well
Bonne chance Léo, thanks for taking care of Nick as well. Now on to the next chapter at Nick’s Garage.
Leo seems like an awesome kid. Best of luck to him . Nick it’s amazing how you interact with your employees. I’ve been a railroad worker in Massachusetts for 24 years and a muscle fan since high school. Owed a 72 442 455 M22 4spd in mid 80s also a dodge aspen R/T . Now have a 09 challenger T/A tribute and a 16 charger. What you have in your shop with the guys is a dying breed down her in the states. In the 90s railroading was a close nit fellowship. Not today a lot has changed. I enjoy your utube show so much. Someday would love take a ride up to Laval and meet you and your team. Thanks for a great show and all I have learned watching you and the team. Again best of luck Leo.

Nick don’t you dare retire unless you have other things to do!
Bringing back these cars is your passion and we can see it!
Eagerly awaiting to see the results of this build and I know it will be a masterpiece .
He is so excited to have you rebuild his dream car, that says alot about you and your friends. Can't wait to see it come back alive better than new.
“Nicks bee hive “ lols …. Love it ! Good luck on that restoration car bossman , I’ll look forward to watching this ! 😎
This is going to be such a great project! Lot's of work, but Nick is the man to get it done and right!
Even though I'm shocked that Leo's leaving, I'm happy that he's pursuing his dream. I expected that someday he would be in 10 years or so taking over Nick's garage and carrying on Nick's legacy.
I am so excited to see another Charger restoration! You are the man Nick!
Nick I remember you saying the 500 was the last one , but I'm happy to see you doing this one.
Best wishes to all !! I was a diesel mechanic for 30 years and found that I learned about other things along the way. Drag racing is my passion so I can understand why people move on to try and find the dream. Thanks always and best wishes for Leo... Shawn from Macon ga.
There's no one better at charger body panel installation than Chris Birdsong. He has a TH-cam channel so that is his resume. It would be worth shipping it to him to do the body for you and we could follow along with him too. Would be a awesome collaboration between the two channels.
Nick is the man when it comes to restoring Charger 440's and Challanger 440's. It's his passion!
Awesome project! My brother had a 69 superbee that was that color green and it is a beautiful color when it's fresh! Can't wait to see this charger R/T on its journey to new again! Thanks for making people's dreams come true Nick!
You can really tell how excited Stephan is about having the Dodge Father work on his Charger
Good Luck Leo ! This video was touching for me because I’m a shop owner myself I’ve been working on cars and trucks all my life I am also and old school technician I was taught by some great individuals who are long retired or deceased. And I have the same passion to share my years of knowledge with the younger generations so that the skills are not lost . So my hats off to you Nick for taking the time and patience of sharing your master skills with the younger generations
Nick..I was gonna give up a few weeks ago also..just getting old enough I talked myself into saying I'm done. Been at this car thing for nearly half a century. Couple days later I was contacted by someone and I couldn't turn down getting one of my old cars back from nearly 40 yrs ago. Yup, it needs work but the floor pans are all fantastic...as you're video said...here we go again lol.
I hope the customer is smiling this much at the end of the build!
"I've seem some rough cars......and this is certainly one." LOL Good Luck Leo and Good Luck Nick in finding some good help.
First off Nick I want to say thank you for your continued dedication to Mopar muscle restoration for your commitment to professionalism for taking the time out to talking to all of us whenever you can you're truly one of a kind man and what you do and how you treat people we've not talked yet on the phone but you've been very cordial in your emails to me out of Tennessee is where I'm at I watch your show regularly and it is awesome I love the way you do motors on what the customer wants the care you take the care you take and putting cars back together and restoring them trust me you're a dying breed and you are definitely a one of a kind and it's nice to see our brothers and sisters up in Canada restoring these cars the way they came out from the factory and adding a little bit more zip to them is nice thank you so much for all you do bless you and your family and the people that work for you be safe.
Fully agree with your statement 1000% !!!!!
Thanks you guys.
Good to see a rt charger is going to come back too life I know it will look amazing when you are done and I wish Leo the best of luck on his new job
Good luck to Leo and props to Nick for giving him a proper farewell..A few shows I watch have had employees “disappear”.
The owner is so excited to have Nick do his car
Keep at it Nick. You guys do great work.
Six months after my late father left me his 69 340 barracuda fastback, I wrote it off getting t-boned in a freak traffic accident. Heartbreaking to destroy my father's beloved car.
I bought the wreck back from the insurance company, and since then found an identical 'roller' to replace the body. I've now been staring at it for 6 years and just haven't known where to start such a big project. I think starting is the hardest part.
I admire how you mentioned 'attacking' a project. This spring I'm going to try attacking mine.
Cheers.
Good for you for saving it.
@ Paul Black , Paul I sure hope you will get started on it and save it . Maybe give Nick a call and get some tips on how he starts a big project like that .Also maybe Google for topics on big restore projects .I wish you the best with it Paul .
@@NicksGarage Nick , there's another book you can add to your list to do one day . " Full Muscle Car Restoration How To by Nick's Garage. " .....Be another good seller
@@OlSgtLove Yes, thanks. I've been watching tons of videos on it. I've been messing with cars for 30 years but never a full restore. I'm definately going to take a crack at it though. Thanks.
Hey Paul it sounds like your heart’s in this project. Very best wishes to you in going for it!
Nick stay at your shop and do what makes you happy. Like watching your channel.
Good luck Leo! All the best to you!
Good man, Nick. Doing what you love keeps you young and keeps you in shape. I'm 70 next year and work 3 or 4 days a week. I do go fishing on one of my days off. I look forward to it. If I could do it every day, it wouldn't be a treat any more.
Keep it up!
Giasou Nikola,
You remind me my 84 year old father. He had the radiator repair shop until cheap Chinese Imports killed the market. Now he gets around in his 1 ton Mitsubishi an collecting scrap metal. He has the garage @ hot all set up do he can take everything apart to make the most money out of scrap.
Recently he collected & dismantled
4 industrial size mig welders. Took over 2 weeks to dismantled them but he did to get every kilo of copper out of it.
Recently the van did an engine due to my dad overloading the van.
Until the van is repaired he is stuck at home arguing with my mum.
He said the same thing as you.
" He will collect scrap until the day he dies" that's all he knows & the old c saying " If you stop moving you die quicker ".
Sad that Leo is going. I tell you what if I was 25 years younger I would pack my bags & come & work with you.
" BEST OF LUCK LEO, DON'T BECOME A STRANGER DROP IN FROM TIME TO TIME".
Back to the 1970 Charger, I have already christened her " Black Betty ".
We know what is installed for the next 2 & abit years.
Never a dull moment on Nick's Garage.
Your number 1 Fan in Australia
Louis Kats from Melbourne Australia ☺ 👍 ❤
Its awesome that the car exists. Its even better that Nick will get it back on the road. 440 R/T with factory air!
I grew up in S. Texas and if a car lived very close to the Gulfcoast(Houston, Corpus Christi, Galveston, etc.) the humidity and salt air would rot 'em out like you parked it in a salt mine. I remember going to look at a 70 454 Chevelle w a friend back in High School, car was 11 years old w 60,000 miles or something and the front edge of the roof was almost completely seperated along the top of the windshield and the rockers were just open sores. The craziest part was the holes rusted in the valve covers and timing cover. Genuine Texas Survivor!
For a minute, I thought I’d tuned in to Graveyard Cars by mistake!😂
In all sincerity, Nick’s Garage is the ONLY place I would go and watching this beautiful old Charger restoration will be an entertaining and educational journey for all of us! Thank you Nick and the team 👍🍻🇨🇦🏁
Nick and crew, I'm so glad you took on another restoration. I enjoy your restorations more than anything. Besides the dyno room.
Nick, I love your heart! The condition this car appears to be in is the way many have come to me. I'm always thinking, geez are we doing this again?! Unfortunately, this is the way most of them remain today. I'm looking forward to watching your restoration brother. :) Prayers
1970 is my favourite year of charger. Looking so forward to this series.
I can't belive that Leo wants to work on Disels I have worked on diesels and yes they do have their advantages but I would rather work on cars anytime !! and still do ! at 71 ! Good luck Leo
It's bittersweet to see Leo go, but he is a great young man and I am sure he will be popping up again. Thanks for the memories.
Awee, soo sad to see Leo leaving. Such a nice boy!! Wish him well in his new job!! Still miss Vasilli. I hope he is doing well with his new business.
Good luck Leo !
That handshake at the end says it all. You can learn a lot about a man from his handshake, and I can see Nick truly means what he says towards Leo. I can't stand a limp wristed handshake. All the best to Leo in his future endeavors, and to Nick, I really want to send my heartfelt condolences for the passing of your sanity. That is one crispy critter you have there to resurrect. I have worked on cars and trucks like that, so when Nick says it's a lot of work, that is an understatement for sure! Have fun Nick!
Nick, like no love your channel on U tube. You certainly have a wealth of automotive knowledge! At the age of 72 I look back at what I did as a younger person on many an older model car and then I look at how things have changed...wow its like light years different. No setting timing, no dwell, no jet changes. The only difference between you and I is I was a GM & Ford lover especially Chevrolet. Back in high school I drove a 1956 Vette with the original 265 and 3 speed. At one time I had at lease one of every cubic inch motor that Chevrolet ever produced from the 265 to the 454 but I will always love the old 409 Wished I had it all today. Oh BTW my wife is of Greek ancestry, born and raised in Pensacola's Greek Community. Her paternal grandfather was Vassilios Adamopoulos which they shortened to Adams her paternal grandmother was Anastasia Kosmas. He was from Katsarou Messenias Greece and she was from Nision, Kalamata, Greece.
I've been to many a Greek gathering and even a Greek wedding which lasted a long time.
Thanks for your videos...Tony
All Greek to me. Nassai Kala.
Nick a go down in history on this one
good luck with the Charger looks like lots of work to get it back on the road . And good luck in life Leo , hope to see you and your Charger on the street this year
I hope Leo does well at his new job. My first job out of the Army was working at a Used car dealer. Lots of challenges fixing things as the owner didn't want to put alot of money in cars he was trying to sell. My next job was for a Chevrolet Dealership. They helped me get ASE certified. They sent me to GM school to learn more about repairing cars. I left there for a Mercedes Benz Dealership and worked there for a while until I got another calling that paid better with better benefits. Every time you leave a job that wasn't bad, you miss the people you worked with but also look forward to learning more and meeting new people and challenges. I hope Nick finds another worker to fill the spot left by Leo.
Wow, this is exciting for us viewers to see the master take on another big project! Sorry to see Leo moving on, but all the best to him! Cheers to Nick’s Garage🍻!
Nick , you backed up that trailer like a champ ! Glad to see you still got it .👊
Thanks for your time Leo, I really appreciated watching you grow as a true mechanic. You made strides in your profession. Good luck young man. You will go places. 👍👍👍
Good luck Leo. All the best .
Awesomeness, can’t wait to watch this one come back to life…FLY BABY FLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nick. You gotta get a front end manager, you live your retirement in the back end building your chosen Mopar at your leisure. I want to make another trip east to visit again. Thanks for the great shots George. Nick if I was closer I'd be there in a heart beat to help wrench with you. I have trained and taught employees, having them leave to go out on there own. It's hard when it happens and so much harder to find a replacement.
It is obvious you do a fantastic job on the vehicles that come your way. It is also obvious you do have a fantastic relationship with your team. I am really looking forward to the videos on this restoration.
Good thing the quarters are both being changed, that full trunk floor won't go in without the quarters being removed first! Sure hope you can find a body shop that will take that on.
Nick's garage might be evolving to Nicks restoration service. Good luck to Leo! Specialize in Fords there are tons of Ford diesels out there needing work and they have lots of common problems so if you can get good at those jobs you can knock them out quick!
The bones are good, body parts supplied, another new ground up restoration for Nick's Garage. Stay tuned for the drivetrain. Nick will give that Charger R/T a new heartbeat that is strong, a stout shifter and new posi rear end. That will be matched with a gorgeous black paint job, a red BB stripe and new black interior. This will be something to see! Good luck Leo!
Farewell LEO. Thanks Nick for saving these amazing cars.
Nick.. you are such a good fellow.. I can see from your face this is not really a project you would have chosen to do.. But as I watch the fellow who owns it.. his joy and excitement I can see why you are doing this.. Your a good man Nick.. God bless you for all that you do for folks. Even when it is not what you really wanted to do... Carry on son.. You really are the man...
Nick l did the same with my dodge. Front and rear floors,rear quarters,trunk floor,rear valance,cross frame, corners,trunk extensions,rear frame rails, trans cross member, passenger side front rail. Been a journey but l finally have her done and painted Petty Blue and she sure looks good now and runs great. Took two years from start to finish now to drive the wheels off of her.
Good morning Nick,,that's right don't stay home ,do what you like to do buddy.
Thanks 👍
That will be a really nice car! Stephan seems like a class act as well. This will be another fun series.
Looks like another Dodge 500 project. “if I was the owner, straight back to Factory original” including colors ! That’s a awesome car.
Anything but black, for sure.
Agree but, it's not my car
That green looked good on that car.
I like the patina on this car!
I would just build it solid. Make sure it was set up nice. Interior and underneath the car with modern components. disc brakes. put a four speed in it and a sure grip. I'd keep that body just the way it looks except with whatever body repairs that are necessary of course.
In fact you know what I would put on the rear quarter? A decal of a "can of worms."
Agreed. Like Nick said, that color is extremely popular. Keep it stock Stephan.
Morning Nick & others, that RT sure needs a great deal of work and I have no doubt Nick will have a team that will rebuild it just the way Stephane wants it. All the best Leo with your future and I'm sure we will see you from time to time and treasure what you learnt fro Nick and his team. George I guess you be around filming this to the end. Stay safe everyone.
Thanks Blinkie. We will be bringing you as much of the story as time allows.
Thanks Nick.
That's the most awesome way to start a restoration, when you don't have to source the part's, just incredible, the one thing that holds me back is not having a lift, and being over 60 I don't get up and down, otherwise I would be in the shop working everyday, I have to do everything in house, I can't afford to send anything out to other contractors, what a great project, when I finish my barracuda I'll send you a picture Nick.
Will be waiting. Thanks.
Nick you and your crew are so knowledgeable. I love the fact you guys never give up. Your show is so educational and enjoyable. You guys keep it up.
No reason not to do what you enjoy. That is the benefit of having your own business. As long as the customer is content to let you work at a comfortable pace.....Enjoy! I would be happy to have you restore my car.
Good luck Leo from a Australian viewer. Wait we didn't see the rest of your 360 build? New R/T Charger looks good, so lucky to be able to buy complete new floors and guards over there. Will be good to see it brought back to life
Do what you love as long as you can .
Nick and Manny are going to say my God what did you do Nick another one I'm happy for you Nick
A hell of a job. And although seeing the real condition and load of work Nick is the honest gentleman to not push it back. A man and his passion. The outcome will be great and we all will love the journey Nick enjoys to share with his viewers. Good luck and all the best. Peace out. Cheers from Germany. Leo, all the best for your next step. Stay safe and take care. Your attitude and friendly open mind are appreciated fore sure by your new colleagues too.
What a beauty, and very straight, great bones and worthy of a complete restoration.
Best of luck to you Leo! I know you will do well at your next role. I enjoyed meeting you at the shop back in November. I hope Nick can find another great mechanic to learn the ropes. It is great to see these old muscle cars restored and driven the way they were meant to be driven.
Nick , May GOD Bless you with the health and drive to continue living your passion, and May your wife be by your side for many years to come. My condolences for the friends you have lost along the way. Nick , you are truly one of a kind !
