Wow you know your doing something right when you get the god father commenting to your videos Derick the shine juice looks like it would work great on my 61 ford falcon delivery wagon iv been using used motor oil I'm a broke man with to many projects to buy the good products Chris as always love the video great job and thanks for the advice you gave me on the shed see you in the next one no nonsense over and out
Keep the thing. You obviously love it. You don't have to frame off it to make a nice looking car that you love and love to drive. The thing could be a serious ambassador for the channel. Just realize Jen said "look how happy he is!" That says a lot my friend.
if he not going to do anything with it like sinking some money in it, car need some love like paint suspension. and people who say they like rat rod look cuz they are to cheap and don't want to put a lot of money in to that car
Hubby says he would buy your Chevelle, haha. I loved it when you shaved your hair. That bit was great, and Gus didn't disappoint by stealing your hair, haha. Love your videos, and I'm amazed when you get the rust buckets running, and of course, I'm a bigger fan of you and Jen's shenanigans! And I'm learning a lot from Jens videos when she tackles her own repairs. She's inspiring and so funny! And I love hearing you and her sing!❤
BEEN WATCHING SEVERAL UTUBE OF YOU CHRIS AND JENNIFER. VERY IMPRESSED ON HOW KNOWLEDGEABLE OF SO MANY DIFFERENT VARIOUS OLDER CARS AND HOW YOU CAN GET THEM TO RUN. KEEP
Just really enjoyed this video - the hair cutting, Gus and the hair chase, you and Jen laughing together on the test drive, seeing Vice Grip Garage Shine Juice in action, your attitude toward making the Chevelle a daily driver. Great content.
Greetings ! My name is Marc , i'm 71 years old , so was raised in the muscle car era . I love your videos , they are very well produced , and i'm a chevy fan , so the Chevelle is particularly interesting for me. Keep up the good work.
Y’all , I laughed so hard when Chris shaved his head and then Gus went crazy and took off with the hair. Omg I needed that !! Jens reaction was priceless !! This is a No nonsense haircut for sure ! Nice !
Another brilliant video Chris, I must say the knowledge you have for such a young guy is remarkably outstanding buddy. I can't think of any other way I'd rather be spending my last days by watching your videos Chris. You make having a terminal illness bearable buddy. 🇺🇸🇬🇧👍👍👍
I had an old farmer bring me his front tractor tires. He wanted them dismounted and sealed. Bead seal is the standard. Although he insisted I use wheel bearing grease, after I told him his rims were border line I'm possible to seal. I did as he asked never had any leaks I was blown away. I saw his 3 years or so after, he said tires still holding. Just passing along the tip. In a pinch might help. Keep up the good work!
Yeah that sounds like a good technique to use on old dry tractor tires. The grease will help swell the rubber as well. I don't think I would trust doing that on high speed road tires though
Man! Your videos are the best! I always look forward to new ones. The random haircut and Gus running around with it was hilarious! I like your philosophy too. Make it run good and enjoy it. It's always tempting to spend mega bucks on cars (and boats), but most people cant afford to dump a bunch of money into toys. The relatability factor is what makes your videos so good!
The short hair looks good man, good choice! I cracked up at the mullet and had to show my wife that. I also shave my head and will often go in with a Mr. T style cut or something and ask her what she thinks (it's always a hard no 😆). Great video as usual.
100 % agree on your idea for the Chevelle..manual, black, not the prettiest but fun to drive and hammer around town!! Smoke the tires once and a while 💨
Hey Chris, my 2 cents turn; you obviously like it & we'd like to see you keep it. Do the 4 speed conversion. Fix the AC. Make it a primer coated driver. Maybe add a junkyard RV overdrive. Add a hidden hitch to pull the boat!
Thank you once again for an awesome video (as always) the car is absolutely beautiful. That smile and grin you had on your face driving this car? That’s exactly what these cars are for. American muscle at its best
I have always liked your take on things regarding full restorations. With my boats, cars, and snowmobiles I have always liked just original for the most part not show condition and have had so much enjoyment along with others that enjoyed seeing them as they are. Fun driver is the way to go for me too!
The fact that you are working on your own vehicle and just having fun as the end result, is pretty much what 3/4 of us are striving for. I appreciate your videos .
I happen to love your approach with budget minded makeovers. Never mind the car snobs who think you have to do it their way, do it yours and drive the thing. This is my fave car you have, it sounds like nothing else, and shes a ripper. Sure hope you do the upgrades on your list slowly on this as she is a keeper in my mind. Body is still pretty decent, might be worth giving a VGG $60 tractor supply paint job in the future.
Living in South Africa, we always dream of snow.....but when you look, how much more snow of an hassle than a good thing, I am so grateful for the fantastic climate we enjoy...all year long.
My absolute dream car. I’ve been learning how to work on cars the last few years so I can purchase this car one day and keep it running. Your video recovering this car is what got me into watching car revival videos. Now I follow VGG, PBG, JYD, and so many other TH-camrs. The 71 Chevelle is tops on my list! Greetings from across the river in Hamilton!
Better start looking for a project now it will take some time to find one worth buying don't ever let them know how interested in the car you are !!!! Be a tire kicker at first. Check marketplace there alot of good starters on there for a few thousand dollars, you can stack parts till your ready to build it
Turbo was trying to help you out with this car. I was at a barbershop yesterday and on there Google review page, they actually advertise the best mullets around, I had a mullet when I was a kid back in the 90s and they are coming back in style, more and more. 14:30, What a crazy little dog. With a car like this as you know, the sky is the limit.
It definitely has the unmistakable sound of a Chevy big block.. and Chris, I'm so glad you finally cut that long hair you had. Just let it grow to a short length and keep it like that. And I'm really digging the shine juice, looks so much better and hope you do keep the Chevelle that shade of red or maroon. And you need to get some interior door panels
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow LOL It is the first time I have grown my hair out since the late 90s.. love your channel. I live at the Georgia FL border. but coming up North in 4 weeks to visit my mom and Akron, OH.
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow I will be going to Beaver Falls, PA. But I believe you're on the East Coast of Pennsylvania, not the west side. So sorry, I can't stop by and say hello.
Really appreciate the editing efforts you put into these videos. The audio adjustments when using the loud tools just makes for a more enjoyable watch. Love the content as always! Always look forward to the next upload. Much love!
My old Dachshund was named Gus and he was the best dog ever! He was a short haired black and tan. Just as stubborn and mischievous as any other wiener dog, but a great little friend.
Gus is the typical dachsund - zoomies, hard-headed determination, sunning with all four legs in the air, sticking that cold wet nose in the cats ear - that's why we love em so much! Excellent episode, as always, thank you!
Literally my dream car to work on and restore(especially with my son). I hope one day i can find one, even if its a roller for a decent cost. But heck yea just started the video cant wait to see the rest. Awesome car
My two takeaways from this vid… 1. I need a weiner dog in my life stat. Gus is the absolute best! 2. FINALLY on the hair cut! It’s 1000x better on you!
I just want to thank you for all those videos! Just fell in love with this channel, it has an absolutely unique atmosphere! All those roadtrips and the way you show them, all those american classics, and you guys are just a wonderful couple! Just want to wish you all the best and can't wait to see some fresh videos! I hope this car gets what it deserves, such a nice classics car, wish I could have something like it )
Hi love your videos, I think because it’s not just,to fix this you undo this or replace that, you kind of turn it into a story👍. We have the saying let the dog see the rabbit , well it looks like you have let Gus see the hare🐇🙃all the best👍🐝🌞
If you put that hair in a mesh bag and hang it outside, birds will actually use it for nesting material. As for the sticky residue on the seats, I'm a fan of Goo-Gone. And for the mosquitos, consider setting off a couple of foggers in the shop overnight. Keep the videos coming.
Looks awesome! Exactly what it's meant for! Thanks for giving shine juice a try! Goin ta town approved
Not gonna lie I’m surprised you got time to actually watch TH-cam…
Derek, you are a gentleman. Just wanted to say that.
Literally just finished watching the $69 truck paint job. Love this Chevelle. Can't wait to see what she looks like with the shine juice.
Wow you know your doing something right when you get the god father commenting to your videos Derick the shine juice looks like it would work great on my 61 ford falcon delivery wagon iv been using used motor oil I'm a broke man with to many projects to buy the good products Chris as always love the video great job and thanks for the advice you gave me on the shed see you in the next one no nonsense over and out

Long hair ......Short hair......It don't matter .......Your still the man.
HAIR Today,
gone Tomorrow
😳😬. CB
I love that you take your stuff out and rip! They were meant to be driven. And Gus running around with your hair just killed me 😂
Jen's face at 44:38 !! That's the first time I have seen her that scared. But boy, that thing sounds great!
I agree on it being a daily driver. Minimal investment, maximum coolness!
There is something magical about an old car firing right up and smoking out of a tailpipe.
indeed!

It's not "content", it's art. Content is filler. "Content creator" is a derogatory term. We're not "content creators", we're artists. :)
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow Everyone that follows you enjoyed that one. Not sure about the hair thing but I haven't had enough to cut for a long time. 😂
@@strangersound I could not agree more with you. It’s pure art putting it all together. :)

She's a runner / Jen's a keeper.
What a ripper !! Nothing like a big block Chevy . Carry on my wayward son !!
Y’all , I laughed so hard when Chris shaved his head and then Gus went crazy and took off with the hair. Omg I needed that !! Jens reaction was priceless !! This is a No nonsense haircut for sure ! Nice !
That Chevelle is sick!!! If any car needs to be saved ( more so than you already have ) this is the gal!
Sell it, buy more. Favorite videos are you bringing dead/abandoned cars back to life 👍🏿
Excellent Chris luv the self hair cut. Cheers guys & the star mr guss 😊
the hoist is a game changer for you, makes working on the fleet much easier
are you talking about the Lift?
A hoist pulls engines up. Lol
The Chevelle got another 10 years added to its life and you shaved off 10 years with the hair cut. Great video, Chris!
Absolutely love BOLT DEPOT! I have used them for years. Highly recommended! You, Jen and Gus are the Best!
They are awesome! I checked 5 different websites before ordering hardware, they had the best pricing! At least for all the items I was looking at.
Another brilliant video Chris, I must say the knowledge you have for such a young guy is remarkably outstanding buddy. I can't think of any other way I'd rather be spending my last days by watching your videos Chris. You make having a terminal illness bearable buddy. 🇺🇸🇬🇧👍👍👍
Love the video. Haircut, Gus, ragtime, shenanigans, everything!
KEEP MAKING UTUBE CLIPS I REALLY ENJOY HOW YOU WORK CHRIS.
Like the car, like the hair cut and liked the video. Need I say more? 👍👍👍👍👍

Great to see the Chevelle getting some luv 🏁🏁🏁
Need to do that to my rusty, crusty 71' Chevelle too 😎
A perfect balance of Chevy wrenching,Chevy driving and family time with Jen and Max. Great know how!
Turbo is thinkig its always gus gus gus man😊cheers guys
Chris. An ozone machine might be decent investment. It will deodorizea car interior in a day or so. It is also a deterrent to bugs and mice.
The short hair looks good man, good choice! I cracked up at the mullet and had to show my wife that. I also shave my head and will often go in with a Mr. T style cut or something and ask her what she thinks (it's always a hard no 😆). Great video as usual.

Thank you once again for an awesome video (as always) the car is absolutely beautiful. That smile and grin you had on your face driving this car? That’s exactly what these cars are for. American muscle at its best
Chris I thought I was the only guy that listened to classical music whilst working on my cars.😂 love it man.
Always stoked when you upload- ❤ your content!
@6:40 Damn the '71 looks good wet after that wash. Shows what a new clear coat could do.
BTW, IMO the short hair fits you better Chris.
Dude! You have mad skills! Glad I found your channel. I'm addicted!!

Gus is a gem. I’ll bet if you had some merch featuring him, they would sell. Channel mascot
Honestly he could full his shorts channel with just peeks of Gus and it would do amazing.
You look 10 times better with short hair. Enjoy your content so much! Pls keep up the work. You and Andrew are the best best.
Cheers
My first car was a Chevelle. Gus is sure a screen hog. Star of the show! Love your choice of music.
You can soak the wheels and CLR to get rid of all that rust 😮😮😮

Okay. Still going back through old videos. BEST Gus video of all time! 🐕
Sounds exactly like a muscle car should. ❤
What a tease with Jena mustang, looking forward to that vid!
Come for the car. Stay for the haircuts.
Good job on the haircut. Had the long hair myself and it had to go as well. Feels much better and Gus is hilarious.
Really appreciate the editing efforts you put into these videos. The audio adjustments when using the loud tools just makes for a more enjoyable watch. Love the content as always! Always look forward to the next upload. Much love!

Glad too see you go back too what got you going in the first place
Keep them comeing
Good video…
Nice got to keep the classics alive keep it coming man watching and learning your big motivation 👀 🍿💪
Looks like a brand new man 👍🏾
Chris, you are such a great mechanic. Thank you for the great videos. Happy New Year to you, Jen, and Gus.
My old Dachshund was named Gus and he was the best dog ever! He was a short haired black and tan. Just as stubborn and mischievous as any other wiener dog, but a great little friend.
I have long hair too. When you cut yours, it looks like you gained 20 years. (lol)
Hair Today
Gone Tomorrow

No way lol - cutting it takes years off

2. FINALLY on the hair cut! It’s 1000x better on you!
He’s cute, but those dogs can come with a lot of health struggles. Consider a mutt.
The Chevelle is a perfect car keep it man
Bro... the dog running away with human hair is absolutely ridiculous 😂😂😂😂😂
Haircut looks 100% better!!
You will feel much better with shorter hair = cleaner and refreshing
Glad to hear you are friendly with Derek. You are both two of my favorite youtubers.
Chevelle! Gotta build it…. They only go up in value so, no money lost plus, sweet content.$$$
I'm with you on this one. Make it safe, make it yours, and drive the wheels off it! If you restore it, you'll never want to drive it.
Love the piano roll blues type music. 🎶
Much better hair cut now Chris.🤗 Fix the rust, and keep the Chevelle useable.
I just want to thank you for all those videos! Just fell in love with this channel, it has an absolutely unique atmosphere!

P.s Gusman almost made me cry with laughter running with your hair. Hes a goofball for sure. hahaha
Don’t sell it, Chris. It’s too much of a gem! ‘71s are my favorite too! Those brake drums have had the infamous VGG “Craigslist Rebuild”
Hi love your videos, I think because it’s not just,to fix this you undo this or replace that, you kind of turn it into a story👍. We have the saying let the dog see the rabbit , well it looks like you have let Gus see the hare🐇🙃all the best👍🐝🌞
CUT LOOKS GREAT!
Classic car reno with a random haircut and chase scene sandwiched in the middle. Love this channel
When in doubt FLOOR IT!!! Fun stuff, you 2 are a great team 🤙🏽🍻💥!
Keep it....beat on it!!!
Gussman thinks everything is a toy for him to play with, love it 😂 Turbo looking very tired at the end, think he’s had just about enough of Guss 😉
Classic industries will send you a free catalog for the Chevelle also😮😂
The dog running away with your hair is hilarious. Something you'd see in one of those short videos.
Colt the inside of the rims with bed liner spray it will protect the metal and seal the wheel when you put a tire on it FYI 😅😅
Chris, I love what you did with the new garage. Total dream garage in my opinion.
If you and Derek could work on this muscle car that would be awesome! You and him could make it a monster!
This car would make a great movie car
We had a 74 4x4 that we put a 396 in on the farm when I was young that truck would pull a load 😊
Chris love the Chevelle video!! You’re a miracle worker 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 and love the “hair cut” looks awesome and you look younger 👍🏻👍🏻
The burnout made me smile!
If you put that hair in a mesh bag and hang it outside, birds will actually use it for nesting material. As for the sticky residue on the seats, I'm a fan of Goo-Gone. And for the mosquitos, consider setting off a couple of foggers in the shop overnight. Keep the videos coming.
One of my favorite cars Chris. Drive it to the Adirondack Nationals Car Show in Lake George NY in 2024 :)
I love the old muscle cars. Had a 67 GTO with an L88, Muncie 4 speed competion plus and a 411 in 1970. Miss those days of hot cars and cheap gas!!
