I just dont understand how you own a muscle car and park it in the weeds for 40 years and let it rot away.. No less with I believe I seen keys in the ignition.SMH!
back in the day the cars were like cars today not many thought about this car was going to be sought after it was just a old car junk it get a new one. My Father had nice cars growing up and he would drive them and sell them or junk them he said if he knew those cars were going to be worth anything he would of kept them but at the time it like having a 10 year old car today when it breaks just buy a new one. I was not until the 90's people started to realize these things are worth something.
In 20 years, they will be parking Porsche GT-3's and Lamborghini's in the weedy swamps, and the prodigy of Patrick Glenn Nichols will find them and report back to us.
@@79tazman the movie Christine kinda relates to that because the movie was made in 1982 and everyone hated that 58 fury that the kid was driving because it wasn't sought after yet until today.
It blows my mind that these cars are left like this. I remember friends having cars just like this in high school in the late 70's early 80's and they even knew at that time how important these cars where then.
Yeah . But I remember a time when this car would be 1300$ -running . And worked at a wrecking yard and we paid "up to" 100$ and go pick these up and part them out and crush the left overs .WHAT were we thinking ? !
Remember, back in 1980, cars from the 70's and older weren't even close to that age where they were collectable. Thus, people didn't give two shits what happened to them or what they did to them. And that goes for any vehicle brand then... just think why a 68 charger is rare cause if that TV show... I'm assuming you know what I'm referring to lol
@@5luggin how awesome would it be to unload this thing in your driveway and give it the respect she deserves.... My 70 SS was actually worse for wear.. but this one didn't deserve it
I like the ole dog watching you. It’s ok at day light but don’t come back at night!! Yelp he has teeth and bites !! Thanks for sharing another barns find . !! Love how you share documentation of how see was built!!!!
The dogs scare me more then the rust! Also Florida weather is the worst weather by far on a car that sets outside. The rain is like pouring rust from the sky. Probably was a sharp car in 1980. Cool video as always Patrick👍
Chris Daniel well yes, because as you know people are now turning their attention to modern muscle cars, I mean, come on, 770 hp from the dodge heck-cat?
Great videos, I retired after 30 years at the Doraville Georgia GM assemble plant., I know your viewers probably know where Atlanta is located but the Atlanta GM plant to me was always the Lakewood Plant. Sadly they are both closed today and the buildings demolished.
Thank you for making these videos...i know it takes time and effort on your part and i love seeing 70 chevelles in any condition, i wish i could afford to fix cars like this one ,its sad to see a legendary car just wasting away.
Patrick Glen, just wanted to say thank you for doing an excellent job on your videos - always thorough, accurate, and greatly respectable to the owners of the vehicles. Thank you for always being on your A-game. Keep up the good work bud
So sad!!!! My 1st car was a 70 Chevelle I bought for 500 bucks in 79’ but it wasn’t a SS, I would love to have it now. Awesome job finding these gems love your channel.
Would be a good parts car, but he is going to fix it soon. He is going to keep it because he got his first piece of tail in it. Well some kind of story like that. Keep up the hunting, love your coverage of these great cars!!!
Because there are some people that would rather just watch it "rot to the ground" than ever part with it....just so they can say that they own a '70 Chevelle SS396..... Just stupid.
Mustang gang 5.0 well at least my mom left her 69’ Volkswagen in her garage for 40 years. The engine froze, not even the wheels turn. But at least it was protected from the elements.
I will never understand how somebody could just leave something like this just rotting away. Really frustrating to see . Thanks Patrick for pissing me off. SMH.
This is what makes me mad ,when there's nothing wrong with it ,and you just put a new motor in it ,and just park it outside ,with the hood up mind ya for no obvious reason whatsoever ,it's 1 thing for a mom ,dad ,or wife to park a deceased owners car but when the owner does it ,that's just sad
Anyone who would own a classic like this and not take 3 seconds of their time to even close the hood doesn't deserve it period! But im sure like most of these cars that are found the conversation with the owner would go something like .... Looker: Hey, you interested in getting rid of this car? Owner: Nope, gonna fixer up. Rinse/repeat conversation over the years until the car literally rots to the ground. I can show you at least 3 cases of this happening around my area where one of them actually has a small tree growing inside of it. Owner has been "gonna fixer up" for 30 years now. For whatever reason these people have no real intention of fixing up anything, but they can't stand the thought of someone else actually doing something with it.
Sad to see, sometimes these videos really hurt to watch, dont get me wrong I love what you Patrick it just hurts to see what an owner can and will do to a car. If that hood was that bad I doubt much of the rest of the body was much better and you know the floors are long gone. Ouch!
Now their to lazy to close the hood , they could have rolled up the windows ,these are the best Chevelles and they didn't want to restore them won't be long till someone sets it on fire
Crazy! If only cars could talk! I have a few cars that I know of in GA I have been wanting to learn more about and would be right up your alley. I know of two Chevelle’s and an impala on the same lot. Have been there quite some time without moving. Owner of the property died and I’m still investigating who is in charge currently. Have been wanting to write a letter and drop it off to see what the deal is with the vehicles in the yard
While watching, I prefer to hear Patrick's dialogue to his videos as if its Matthew McConaughey narrating, and that in all of these videos he arrived in that very same 70 SS from Dazed and Confused....(kidding you Patrick, you do a great job narrating, you are VERY entertaining)....alright alright alright. Love your videos Patrick. I subbed you brother. Maybe someday i could trouble you to help me document my 69 SS396 car, i've owned it since 79 and i am the 3rd owner, behind the original owner and a guy who bought it to flip it and only owned it for a few months. Take care brother Chevelle enthusiast.
Very sad I love cars I love these kind of videos keep up the good work it's always fun to see things like this you don't get a chance thanks for the good cry
What a DAMN WASTE!!!!! People or Individuals who do this should be horse whipped and the dragged thru the streets!!!!!! I tried to buy a 1967 GTO in 1981 while I was living in Pensacola, Fla. It was in a fenced in yard....weeds growing around it....it was sinking into the ground....I talked to the owners Dad....The Dad wouldn't sell it...since his son was killed in Vietnam! I understand the sentiment....but I promised him I would bring it by after I got it running.....he still wouldn't sell it....As far as I know....all these years later....it was might have been finally sold... although it was probably a basket case or it was sold for Scrap.....What a WASTE!!!!!!
I'm here in Ontario Canada and ran across a couple 70 Chevelles the other day one looks to be a SS and the other was a Chevelle but the first thing I thought of was you I did not get a video of them but I know where they are and I'm going to go back up and get a video of them when I can
The dude parked it because it was old & outdated for 1980. Plus where would you find aftermarket parts for it in 1990s. That missing back glass would be an instant ticket in Florida.
Don't know if anyone has asked this before but did all Arlington Texas built SS cars come with square stripes or was it dependent on who was painting them on the day they needed stripes added?
Truly a shame, car was only 10 yrs old when parked, 8 track in the dash was after market Audiovox, such a sad thing not to protect it, I have GTO in my neighborhood, sitting in a woman's driveway Day 2 car, lady that owns the house won't sell it, looks like a 66, word is it belonged to someone in her family that didn't come back from Vietnam, it's been sitting over 40 yrs turned to junk
Back in the 80s as a kid i did landscaping. One of our customers, a very nice older lady had a 73 S-3 light green Chevelle in her garage with under a thousand miles on the clock,her son bought it new in 72,drove it until he went to Vietnam and was killed there,such a sad but unfortunately common story. My family ironically bought the house that backed hers many years later while I was away in the service doing my hitch,i never discovered what became of it though. ▪☆☆☆▪
Patrick Nichols there is a 70 Chevelle ss a guy not too far form me in Clio Michigan is selling as roller form looking at the cowl tag he pictures it is also a Arlington TX car too with the bt code and form what i can tell it was a red bench seat with red exterior and maybe even a 396 car??? there is a 396 badge on one of the fenders the cowl tag says tr 787 and it looks like a 75/75
Please keep us updated on this car, the other one you showed us,the red one, someone was able to buy it after you showed it to us on here. I hope that happens with this one too
Out and out shame .....I love all your videos brother .. you must be able to smell out these classics ... Just hate to see all these beauties wasting away...
Even though I'm a die-hard Ford man, seeing stuff like this is SOOO frustrating but at the same time I realize that to most people it was never anything more than a more powerful mode of transportation....
What a shame a brand new 396 he put it in and tossed out to rot the hood is open with nothing covering the carb so the engine is full of water from all the rain and the window down so there is no floor left and frame is most likely toast there ain't much left of that car what a damn shame
It’s amazing any of these old musclecar survived through the 70s with the gas prices and emissions and insurance rates you couldn’t give away these cars back then
My dad was the second owner of this car. His first cousin was thhe origional owner. My dad sold it to the current owner in 79 or 80 for $600. Dad offered to buy it back when i was in high school a few times but the owner refuses to sell.
@@king0cans They still look good but I was referring to 1980 when it was parked. By then a North east car would have no floors and quarters flapping in the breeze.
Good they left the hood up and window down so the engine could air out and stay dry preventing any rust removal and the interior could stay in near perfect condition during the upcoming restoration.
My friend found a 1970 chevelle ss 454 while remodeling an old lady's house the other day. She's asking $10k and it's been sitting in a hay barn since 2008. It's in NM and doesn't look to have any rust. Any way i can send you the pictures i have? My friend took the pics and couldnt pop the hood, so idk if its #s matching or what. My dad and I are waiting on permission to go check it out ourselves.
just to remind y'all there was a fuel crisis in the 70's. Many muscle cars were parked and neglected by owners simply because the gas was expensive and sometimes hard to get. I know of several high performance engines were removed and mundane low horsepower turds put in. One in particular off hand was a 1963 Impala SS 409 425 horse 4 speed was replaced with a 283 2 barrel powerglide
Such a shame that people leave these to rot. Savable if you have a nice wad of cash and a couple of years to wait for it. Way to much metal to replace.
It wasn't stored...it was left to die.
I DIDN'T MEAN TO STEAL YOUR LINE ROUGHLY I SAID THE SAME
I just dont understand how you own a muscle car and park it in the weeds for 40 years and let it rot away.. No less with I believe I seen keys in the ignition.SMH!
Something tells me it's not going anywhere.

So damn sad to see such a beautiful and complete car sitting like this!!! Thank you for showing these as sad as it is to watch!
Amazing to see the keys are still in the ignition Patrick. Thanks for sharing.
The dogs scare me more then the rust! Also Florida weather is the worst weather by far on a car that sets outside. The rain is like pouring rust from the sky. Probably was a sharp car in 1980. Cool video as always Patrick👍
The dog scares you? Do you have a problem with dogs or is it a phobia?

Let me guess , he won`t part with it .
This is starting to be more common nowadays.😢

Really why do some people just leave cars out in the element without any protection?
Because there are some people that would rather just watch it "rot to the ground" than ever part with it....just so they can say that they own a '70 Chevelle SS396..... Just stupid.
Mustang gang 5.0 well at least my mom left her 69’ Volkswagen in her garage for 40 years. The engine froze, not even the wheels turn. But at least it was protected from the elements.
It's called mental illness or depression. I had a lot of nice things that I let go because of depression.
I will never understand how somebody could just leave something like this just rotting away. Really frustrating to see .

Love the videos, but really hard to watch.😟
That Legend should be dragged out of there and brought back to life! My dream car!
That's too saad that a Chevelle only lasted 10 years, then he had to replace to the engine, and then it had to be scrapped.
The man said he rebuilt that motor and then just parked it there to rot. Is his name Pinocchio?
People who have these cars and do this to them should be ashamed of themselves !!!! For its time this car was king of the street !!!!
It’s amazing any of these old musclecar survived through the 70s with the gas prices and emissions and insurance rates you couldn’t give away these cars back then
Been meaning to restore it one day.
R.I.P.
It made my eyes bleed!
Awesome find!
Frame is all scaled out!
This video is Northern Ohio Chevelle Club approved for viewing - carry on.... :)
My level of irritation watching this is over 9000...

Just a question .. if the cars build sheet is gone how do u know what the car was built with ?
The VIN number under the hood
In the north east we would have killed for a car that had those solid quarters, doors and fenders!!
In Arizona we crush junk like this.
@@king0cans They still look good but I was referring to 1980 when it was parked. By then a North east car would have no floors and quarters flapping in the breeze.
Needs to be saved.nothing gets me more upset seeing these classic cars left to rot.
Good they left the hood up and window down so the engine could air out and stay dry preventing any rust removal and the interior could stay in near perfect condition during the upcoming restoration.
What a mess. You can't fix stupid.
Sad to know this car once rolled off the assembly line brand spanking new . and look where it ended up.
The saddest part of this is it'll be there for another 40 years. What a damn shame.
