    Nikki is just learning the lay of the land. She knows you are closely watching her right now. She is a good old girl, Nikki will give you a lot of companionship for a long time. Great vidio on your progress on the elco it will sell fast.

    Amazing how the loss of one sense heightens her other senses, she paints a picture and memorizes her home surroundings, once scared and lost, now confident, keep up the great work with her.

    My buddy has a 79 El Camino he kept getting water in his floorboards. Turns out he had a few pin holes around the back window when they took the trim off.

    Nikki has made great progress and the El Camino has too - all down to your hard work and care Lee. Keep up the great work and keep these educational and entertaining videos coming. Amazing hidden value in those junkers, pleased the Step Side worked out, guy knew he had a bargain there.

    It's nice to see Nikki navigating off-leash. The El Camino sounds pretty good and the bed looks nice. Congratulations on selling the stepside also. Keep up the good work and the cool videos 👍✌️🇺🇲

  • @ezboyrc553
    @ezboyrc553 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Those rims will fit on But the center hub hole is bigger. Therefore, all the stress is on the lug nuts. And not the hub, you actually cannot put a Chevy wheel back on the Toyota. Because that hole is too small on a Chevy wheel. I myself would just use the tires. And that was perfect timing when you were talking about the cats and one walked out from under the truck. Lol
    Keep up the good work I love the videos.

    In stead on building a console . Why not just get a cheap aftermarket radio and replace the 1980 pioneer ? Watching Nikki navigate the yard was awesome ‼️

      I don't want to cut up the dash to put a new one in and ones that fit the holes are too expensive

  • @kennyguillotte1881

    Good to see Nikki doing so well.
    That Chevelle would of taken years to fix right. I await your next project but you were right to pass on that one. If it was an SS it might be worth it for someone with $25,000 for parts and three years to kill. It would be $100,000 build in a professional shop.

    • @clunkersandclassics

      I really look forward to seeing you every week. I saw you say you were going back to the same guy to see another car. I'm glad it worked out.
      I've been trying to save up to get a classic of my own. Finding the right car isn't easy. I don't have your talents.

    Mr. B. Here ! Your76 El Camino $8.000 to $ 10.000 : I have a GMC 76 Sprint one 5000 my wife got it from dealer $15.000 oh mileage was 60,000 miles ! Good luck !

    Classic audio sound you find new radio to fit with mobs and not cutting jegs car catalog claims the same

  • @hectormacias8890
    @hectormacias8890 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You know you love this El Camino but you won't admit it. You have put so much work into it and so far you're making it look like a survivor. She is looking beautiful and I'm not sure you're going to want to sell it when you're all done with it cause according to you this car will not bring in too much money. She is beautiful and if nothing else she will be a head turner. The effort you have put into this beauty will generate enough to compensate the time and money you have invested with no doubt. $7,000 at his point? Maybe $12,000 sounds more reasonable.

  • @mikesawyer4707

    Lee, you could easily fetch seven to twelve grand. For the elco. No doubt about it. Good luck.

    OMG $7,000.00 for a $2,500.00 car....REALLY....??????? Boy howdy, your going to break it off in someone's.... you know what.....It's not worth that. It's like putting lipstick on a pig...

    • @clunkersandclassics
      @clunkersandclassics  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, it's worth $7k in this condition. You really think I'd do all this work and spend money on it if it was only worth $2500??
