- Welcome back to the channel! We're doing things a little different today. We're gonna go back in time.....back to the beginning....back to the days before @lonestarlows was a thing and before the channel. This was the first build I ever did in the shop and the start for many things....I learned how to do paint & bodywork, framework, sheet metal work, and so much more. Watch the video as I take you through the build!!

That 62 is beautiful
Awesome video! I have both a 62 and 63 project that I’ve been wanting to restore for years now. Your an inspiration bro. Maybe I’ll just start doing the work myself instead of paying someone hundreds per hour! Keep up the great work!
Yessir. Pay yourself, not others 😎😎
That's the first build I watched from u 62 came out clean 👌
Determination, will power, and money
Yeah that too
Cant wait till i build my 62 impala off the ground.nice 62
Is this the one that started it all !! Awesome build man !
It started the whole frame off thing yessir
Awesome work! Paint and body looks better than so called pros who charge $10K+
Thank you. Thanks for watching. I've learned so much since this video mostly trial and error, and alot of reading and just trying
10k try more like 25k just for body n paint no metal repair
REAL TALK. THANK YOU LONE STAR!!!!
All your videos gave me da balls to start body working my own 62 Impala. After having painters flake out on me. I said fuck it…. I
Can do this. An ur videos helped me so much with knowledge an understanding how to actually do the work. Now I’m almost done with 62’s body work. Thanks lone star
Hell yeah. That's what's up. Glad to be of help. Thanks for watching
Awesome work that’s my dream car. That’s when I started watching your channel. Waiting on Bobby’s car to come back to the channel. 68 coming out great I know I have some skills wish one day I have the chance to do 62. And these and you guys are an inspiration to me thank you and keep them coming. Can’t wait on the 60. Right now I have a 2000 gmc nbs I want to work on. With that same scheme black and red. Want to learn how to weld with it. 🙏💪👌
I'm almost ready to paint the 60 frame. Just haven't posted anything on it
Thoroughly enjoyed the conversation, photos and your process man. Thank you for putting this together for us to watch, it’s inspiring like all your videos have been. Amazing work for your first build, enjoyed this with the family like always- thank you.
Thanks for watching. Major update on the 68 this weekend!
sweet...
Thanks
Thanks for the much needed inspiration, I'm working on a 59 Bel Air two-door and these cars can be a challenge, for a one-man show, I've seen your more recent videos and I think you're on the right track....👍 keep up the good work
Thank you. Lots more work to come
Putting together my 61 right now. It's my first project car ever at the age of 27. Your channel helped me out a lot when i was taking my fenders on & off! Hoping to have her back on the road running well before the summer. Gonna be somewhat of a ratty, hotrod build since it's a 4 door (or at least that's my excuse for not wanting to do/pay for body work right now haha
Good deal. This channel is all about DIY the best you can with the money tools and time you have. Thanks for watching 👀
Lonestar Lows is my favorite Low Low channel. You are doing some amazing work!!!
😎
Thanks for watching, lots more work to come!
too clean! nice work
Thank you
Good video! Go back into the archives and talk about all your older rides and builds!
Yes I have a bunch of old pics. I plan to do more voice overs. It's kind of weird at first
This is awesome man great video really motivates me to work on my cars got to start somewhere thanks brother appreciate from so cal
Yeah buddy. Good deal. Thanks for watching 👀
Better brother I wish we could keep them all 💯🔥👍
I'm keeping the 60
Great video as usual 🫡
Thanks 😎
Nice times when you could pick up a solid car for what you paid now you get a rust bucket for more. You do great work.
Yessir. They are still out there but, won't find them on IG or Facebook. Alot harder to find a good deal. Everyone wants a bunch of a money for a car that still has single reservoir master cylinder and original brake lines.
Looking forward to the final outcome of your 60. Keep up the good work
@@salr5272 looking to start bodywork on it when the 68 leaves
The Rooster.
Super nice work for your first try. You had a lot more things going on which made it more than just a Stock restore.
Were you Drinking when you came up with all this ideas 🙂
You have a great skill level which a lot of people do not and never will.
Having people you can ask questions is a big help.
So I figure you ran into Red Rocket at a Car Show but Bobby just followed you Guys home 🙂
Bottom line is you just have to try and you can figure out most things.
Ed is back! Actually yes I was probably drinking. How I met red rocket was he called me one day, not sure how he got my number. To ask me about a tilt steering column and we just kept in touch. Yes bobby followed me home haha
Actually Ed, bobby has been around before rocket. I remember me and my buddy had Bobby get in the trunk of this car and tighten the hinge bolts as we adjusted the deck lid. He's no stranger , and has great work ethic 😎
@@lonestarlows That fits, most Welders are great workers but are a little nuts for sure 🙂
My neighbor was Joe the Welder, we did so many crazy things and built so many things it's hard to remember.
He did not have a Son so my Son was his Son and he learned a lot about Life.
You have a Great bunch of Guys around to help out and come up with ideas.
Brings back memories of my 1st car red 62 327 3 on the tree with American racing wheels really clean too bad I sold it🥲🥲🥲
👀👀👀
😀✌️👍

Is there any chance you have the measurements for the rear antenna holes and door mirrors? I don't want to drill holes in the wrong place
Nathan, thanks for watching. I dont have measurements, but u could just eye ball it and get it close and I'm sure it will look great
Great video, what size is your shop?
30x50
What yr did you buy this car? Great job btw💪😎
It always amazes me what ppl are capable of doing if they just try. I'm building my 66 SS Vert right now. Doing a lot of 1st's... Lol
It was early 2012. 😎
@@lonestarlows
Awe ok. Now that 11k dollar price tag makes more sense. Ppl these days would've sold it for 80k🤣😜
Where are you now? Still in Houston?
No I dont live in Houston.
Nice, so what did it roughly cost to build how you wanted it?
End of day I was in the car for about 20k
I hope to one day build my Cutlass
@@elizj713 it's just nuts and bolts!
Did that car end up in Miami?
I'm not sure
What size is your shop?
30x50 , 12ft walls
I wish I could buy a Chevy Silverado with a 4.6L V8 and a 5 speed manual transmission.
Did you say $11,000?
Did you pick this car up from a dude in garland?
I believe it was sache tx. Or something like that
