Well, that was a welcome surprise. Obviously a "Luxury" edition with the chrome wheel arch covers. My mothers red Chevette with the gutless 4 banger was simply an awful car. This iteration, the black bomb-shell, that one would have been more to her liking.

Thank you very much !!! My brakes were driving me crazy,. Great video

Runs "good enough" on old gas because its in such a mild state of tune, you can probably drink a 6-pack and pee in the tank and it'll run off of that. ...btw, your window crank handle is supposed to have a large, thin, plastic washer between the handle and the door panel.

No 265 has a crank bolt from back then. My 56 bel air is pressed on

So I had to watch the video 3 times my drum disassembled mine so I wasn’t sure where everything went great tips the star wheel adjuster spring in the vice was a top shelf pro tip great video thanks for posting it

U could bypass all that 2hr bs by just getting what they call peanut plugs from summit racing

My sister owned one of these cars in the mid 60s, we would pack her four kids in the back seat with me and her in the front and go to the drive-inn movie theater that only charged $2 a car load. they had a playground by the concession stand where her kids would play until they got too cold or tired to stay outside. we stacked them in the backseat like cordwood until the movies were over and we went home. What fun!

An LS motor would have been plenty. The drive shaft can't be much more than 2' feet long...

I bet that thang gets stupid violent

I can tell you from experience it is so much easier to cut the master cylinder rod and extend it then it is to cut the bracket back and have it come out right I mean it can be done but its way harder than it needs to be

If you can find a good deal on a Polaris sportsman 800 engine or a Polaris RZR 800 engine they literally produce the same amount of horsepower as a Yugo car did from the factory it would be a perfect setup

And you could always run an alternator off one of the back wheels and have it charged the battery when you're moving and that would make it so you could have radio and just only use the radio when the car is in motion

If you are using a CVT setup you should be able to use rubber motor mounts on the predator engine and it should help a lot of the vibrations but maybe not the engines do like the vibrate a lot but if you could get your hands on a Duramax 500 cc engine I'm pretty sure they have counter shafts to balance the engine better it would be a good engine for this setup and it's a 500 single cylinder so it would put out good power without being too big

I absolutely love these cars with the predator engine swaps I'm currently in the middle of trying to find a small car with a manual transmission to do the same thing myself just to have a car to run around within 10 or 15 mi of my house I think these bills have real good potential of getting very very good gas mileage

Well, that's something you'd not see everyday. Pretty darn cool.

it works better with an AUTO gearbox

Fix the danm door , come on 🤗😅

That’s how you work that stick

If the car’s been maintained and serviced, it would not have this problem with starting. It does NOT need several attempts to get it to start. I think a lot of the problems are more operator error. With no disrespect to anyone, a car will let any joker operate it or work on it. I once told some guys this: “You have to be smarter than what you’re operating sometimes…

CHEERS for 2024 to 2028!!!!!!!!!!

They were great inexpensive cars.

Sounds fine.

Thanks brother

“On the brand new black top” Oof.

Dang good video and vibes

This made my year

What yr is your square body? Looks like a 73 or 4. I had a ton of square bodies. From 73 to 86. 86 being the last yr for the carburetor. 87 they went TBI, then in the 90s i think they went to TPI and not sure what its called nowadays. But from 73 to 86 they made the best trucks. I miss mine. My favorite truck i owned was my '76 Chevy Cheyenne C10 super10. All matching numbers truck

I have a 76 Winnebago brave I think I have the exact same engine too I'm looking to see if anyone knows where the fuel filter is cuz I can't seem to find it

I think these originally came with a 318 Dodge with 2-bbl carburetor

So you replaced the engine and transmission on a 60 year old camper... and didnt think to have the fuel tank taken off and cleaned??? Really?

I like it. I used too have one. It was black also a stick

Nice work. That tractor is worth it

Thank you out of all the videos I watched yours was the most helpful THANK YOU

Not sure if that exhaust could be toned down without sacrificing horsepower and maybe a set of slicks same size would make it pretty cool too

I told my daughter I bought her a vett She was really mad when she seen it was a chevette. Lol 😆

Holy crap, this car made my day!! stunning

The boot goes on first, obviously.

Compression fittings is wild

“This thing is a piece of shit … “ I spit coffee on my dog. 🥶🥶🏁

First gear harder to find than the clit

My haynes manual strangely says to retorque retaining nut to 13 ft lbs (not 35 ft lbs)....i wonder if thats a typi?

Bro i have a westinghouse compressor . The high pressure sid is knocking . Wher do i get parts for it .i need help .

8 years later, how's she's holding up

Really has me curious on what it would take to swap everything from my 2.3 exploder to one of these. And I mean everything, 10r60, and AWD system as well.

Roast the sneakers

No such thing as overkill for big motors in little cars.

💪🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥

Wouldn't this mod only serve to enrich the fuel mixture? I need to lean mine out instead. Is there a simple means of spring swap to lean thrm?
