Another Authentic 1970 LS6 SS454 Chevelle Sells!!!

Built at the Atlanta, GA Lakewood assembly plant the 3rd week of April 1970. This 1970 Chevelle SS454 was finished in Code 78 Black Cherry and featured the RPO LS6 engine, M40 TH400 automatic transmission, 4.10 positraction rear axle, U14 Tach and gauges, ZL2 Cowl Induction Hood, A51 Bucket seats, D55 Center Console, and N40 power steering. It was sold new in Orlando, Florida and has remained in central Florida it’s entire life. The car still retains its original buildsheet and numbers matching CRR engine and correct CRW rear axle. It has been frame off restored and converted to manual transmission.

A friend had bought a L78/4 speed car in Black Cherry with white stripes, vinyl roof and interior. Gorgeous.

[@andrewwitts7576]

I look for a new video every day. Love Patrick’s knowledge of these cars.

[@MattC-ly9lr]

Beautiful car, great job again Patrick 👍

[@brucegwynn8509]

Patrick knows practically every nut and bolt on these cars for sure!!!

[@NakedBikeMike]

I had a 70 SS454 that same color combo in 1985-87. This video makes me miss it even more. Should have held on to it. Thanks for the great video!!

[@keithyoung7640]

Really liked how he started from the bottom first It's all in the details Great video

[@davidsantos8206]

Love the color. This car is a real looker. Thanks for the video

[@poolhustler6]

[@6412mars]

That is a beauty! Oh man that black cherry! Stunning! Makes a guy slobber almost lol!

[@zflyzone]

Very nice 70 Chevelle SS LS6. Mine was fathom blue w/ white stripes. Great video Patrick, God bless!!

[@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS]

Look dammm sweet the way it is... great color, great build!

[@jayrinaz]

Love your videos Patrick, learned so much about my 70 SS 396. I bought my car from past and present in fl. It's been invited to Philadelphia concourse d'elegance and Chattanooga concourse d'elegance, I place in every local car show. Numbers matching L34,m21 learned it was the only 48-48 Chevelle built in van nuys, it's now panted tuxedo black. I also learned from you that my rad is incorrect , other than that the car matches the build sheet. If you get to the Philadelphia suburbs, would love to have you evaluate my car. I learn so much from your videos, keep them coming! JR pennsburg pa

[@Cartier_specialist]

That's a nice one. I'm glad you got your audio sorted out.

[@michaelbokovoy1527]

Thanks Patrick 😊 Absolutely Beautiful ❤️

[@keithphillips6111]

Man,I just fell in love with another one Patrick!!! Even though a black with white stripe car will always be my favorite, this one is right there too!!! I love what you do with these 70 chevelles. They are my soul mate muscle cars!!! Damn I wish I could afford that car!!!! I'd sleep next to it every night and make sure to always talk nice to it!!!!! Much love and hope you are having a great summer!!!

[@chrisauten2039]

Superb job Patrick! I love this darker red on these cars also!

[@nickcollene8302]

Ur videos are the best I can find!!! And the way you take the time to teach and not just assume we all kno this stuff so with a teacher like that I have learned more from your channel then I have anywhere else (except hard work ) but thank you brotha for all the knowledge and I hope to be contacting you one these days hopefully sooner rather than later about a inspection 🧐 before I buy my first chevelle thanks again and keep up the great videos

[@Go4it-5287]

I’ll thank you from Patrick. Sounds like he’s to busy to respond.

[@IamRemoWilliams]

You are a great gentleman.I live in Cincinnati alot of great cars came out of Norwood Ohio.

[@MiturBinEsderty]

Could you imagine being a kid obsessing about this car and getting one. But then making a living off of the hobby. I can tell his original car is his prized possession. Good dude.

[@josephcameron530]

Another excellent presentation. Awesome car! Thank you for your great work.

[@elliottstevens8564]

Happy Happy Happy day!! A new Patrick Glenn Nichols Muscle Car Barn Find video!!!!

[@theodorepetine7562]

Thanks Patrick

[@leonardwashington9997]

!!! That is a Nice One right there Patrick.. Right On 👍

[@RuralEmo311]

Wow!!! Really cool!

[@matthewmaloney5955]

one of the gorgeous colors

[@chaelodoul9401]

Been waiting for your next video!!! Love your work!!!!

[@colinhamilton6493]

11:01 It's great to see the undercarriage addressed with all the details.

[@mick_1949]

Wow, another beautiful chevelle.

[@Bud88883]

What the happened? I was really getting into your videos and then like almost everyone else you stopped posting. I'm a MOPAR guy but i was a teenager in the 70s and have a love for all 60s and 70s muscle cars. Hope to see more exellent videos. Ya I understand you have a life.

[@johnmoriarty6158]

It's a gorgeous car.

[@williammunny7133]

I did enjoy the presentation, only wish I was the purchaser.

[@oldskool1979]

Awesome car and video !

[@chuckb9867]

Just love the channel

[@C.S.Sensei]

Man oh man, I love the 70 SS Chevelle's, I could stare at them all day. My fav colors are Forest green & Tuxedo black, but that color is sweet too. Does the owner still maintain the Auto trans? I didn't hear he did. Most people accept the original drive train to be matching #'s, close enough. To have a car with all OEM is tops though.

[@franciskelley2248]

If you see a Oshawa built black cherry near Reno, nv it use to be mine , sold back in 2002 , exact appearance as that one but day 2, like I ran them back in the day ! Award winning Super Chevy street machine !

[@donshotrodgarage1717]

Great video man! How much does that affect the value not having the original transmission in the car? Most perfer the 4 speed over a automatic transmission in a LS6 Chevelle. Love the color combo. Have a good one Buddy 👍

[@Vini-Pizza]

Great, great, great video!! Man, your wealth of knowledge and detail with Chevelles is incredible! One question for you. I know when I am looking at a 66 or 67 Chevelle SS that the VIN number starts with 138. My Question to you is when did it change to 136 and why would Chevrolet not want to be consistent with the VIN number process? Thank you!!

[@deandee8082]

outstanding car, so beautiful

[@55chevyjoes12]

El camino 12 bolt? Has holes for the shields on the mounts for the lower controller arms. I would say it's a Re stamped housing.

[@markjamison9677]

That car is perfect .

[@thomaspeters9174]

The sexiest car ever built...

[@coxgaspoweredtether]

Yes agree love them.... I had two 70Ss Chevelles... one matching number original, and one non original w mods. Drove them both pretty hard and enjoyed them. Check out this older camcorder video of my red one on street and at the strip....kzbin.info/www/bejne/bHvUpKOOmpWfetE

[@kennethjones8876]

Great video Patrick! Was wondering how many of these black cherry ls6's where made with white interior with a bench seat ? I had one in the early 80's and could kick my self for ever getting rid of it !

[@bobleroy1924]

Great color

[@paulthesoundguy1]

They make very nice lite weight phone stands….I would invest $20 in one

[@deandee8082]

good lord that's a beautiful car.. omg

[@lilshag347productionsii6]

my dad has a 72 nova drag car. i looked up the vin on it. it was assembled at the Norwood OH plant. i dont know if it was originally a 250 inline 6, 307, or a 350 though. it said the engine was unknown when i looked it up. where the 5th digit for the engine is, it has an M instead of a D, F, H, or K.

[@GateOpenersDirect]

That dealer has a lot of Chevelles. Did you see any others there that “caught your eye”?

[@427bullis]

Best color

[@scottharris8308]

gorgeous Chevelle

[@Mo-Town_Auto_Icons]

CURIOUS N MAYBE IM ASKING TO SOON AS THE VIDEO IS NOT OVER BUT WHAT YEAR WAS IT SWITCHED TO A 4 SPEED? ID ASSUME VERY EARLY CORRECT?

[@ClayLee-c7k]

What should the under body finish of an Atlanta car be?

[@johndillinger8482]

what happened to that video from Volo finding that elcamino had a restamped block?

[@freesoul3371]

How much were they asking for the car?

[@RR-bt5xv]

will there be a discount for the dent on the hood?

[@brianglade848]

Patrick, for a Monday, you do awesome fish fry's

[@lilypondgarage2968]

Patrick would that car be worth more with the th400 in it or as I would want it as a 4 speed even though they did a great job with the swap

[@jimbucci3474]

Excellent video Patrick! What color would the bottom of the body be painted on a Van Nuys CA. built '70 Chevelle?

[@archiebunker6059]

When you have all the original wheels is it common that they may have different dates on them, like a couple weeks different?

[@aubreychaparral32]

There was a supposed LS6 car at a big car show in Deadwood South Dakota last year that looked identical to this one. Don’t know if it was legitimate. Really nice car though.

[@brucegwynn8509]

Do we ever get to know what a particular car brought

[@millardhayes1884]

Patrick there is a man in Union City Tn. that has a 70 model convertible with around 800 miles on it. It also has AC. He would like to speak to you.

[@matforsbon]

Great looking car except I assume for the painted white strips, no strips of some sort on my muscle car if I ever get one.

[@THRASHMETALFUNRIFFS]

LRIGHT, ALRIGHT, ALLLLRIIIGGHHT!!

[@coltspop]

Why do some interior door badges on the SS Chevelles read SS and others say Malibu? Does the plant where the car was built have anything to do with the badge differences?

[@llcoco2001]

Hey Patrick! Very cool car!!! Are the rims period correct? Thanks, Louis from France.

[@C.S.Sensei]

I think he said 2 are 2 aren't, one is off and Old's..

[@whirlwind8825]

the oil pan shows the engine was out of the car on the ground . The vin may be correct but this car is a tossed salad .

[@bartsarton2212]

I was curious about the dents in the oil pan too. The low part of the pan is right behind the main frame cross-member. There is no reason for it to have all those dents in it, unless, as you say, the engine was out of it and on a gravel parking lot. Or driven Dukes of Hazzard style. I do like these videos though.

[@barnabyjones5161]

Nice.

[@briansaier4929]

Sweet

[@tomc7631]

The cowl tag rivets do not look original to me. They look like they're either filled in with solder or they are some type of convex hull rivet. I'm not a cowl tag expert, but I have seen plenty of original ones. Am I missing something? Great car and great video!

[@KenGetRight]

@Patrick Glenn, how can I get a copy of my build sheet for my 71 Chevelle? So far, I found out that mine was built in (R) for Arlington Texas 36 for Malibu, 37 Sports Coupe off the chevelle stuff website.

[@ronvance4687]

Patrick. I have an old friend who had a 70 SS 396. Black -stripe delete. Red interior column shift. Spruced up over the years. If you stumble upon anything like it lemme know please. Thanks

[@stevefranklin9920]

Patrick, have you ever ran across an LS7 Chevelle? If so, have you done a video on it?

[@tuco5474]

Would you have authenticated this car if a build sheet was not found?

[@cuzz63]

It was already registered, so if the build sheet had been lost it wouldnt matter. His endorsement is just more detailed about date coded parts etc.

[@MC-xv6gx]

Why did you remove the video of your 1970 Red SS454 Chevelle???

[@larryroberts4984]

Patrick were there ever any 70 SS chevelle made in post 2dr?

[@ph7346]

No

[@DanEBoyd]

That was 1969, and they only made a small amount, like 75 or something. In '70 through '72, there was no post or sedan two door Chevelle. They were all hardtops. But the Buick, Olds, and Pontiac, A-body offerings could still be ordered as two door sedans, complete with the B-pillars and vent windows.

[@bobo44donemilking51]

Gleen how much did he sell this car for

[@ServantofYaHi777]

I wanted to hear it.

[@planetwisconsin9901]

That is the weakest car lift I have ever seen. Whats holding it up atmospheric air pressure?

[@kevsweat]

Patrick what car do you own?

[@blakeosborne2010]

How bout those screws in the radiator support😂😂 Steering wheel changed Complete Reproduction interior Repro hood pin plates Repro headlights Radiator support replaced and we know why that would get replaced Incorrect Exhaust manifolds Oldsmobile wheels 😀 Welds on the quarter panels ground away Should I keep going And this car was endorsed? Endorsed as what? These some made up cars

[@bartsarton2212]

The VIN is original? 😃

[@w41duvernay]

A 4:10 rear end car. Wow the original owner didn't care about gas mileage.

[@Swordsfor200Alex]

dude....my 70 SS had a 4:56 rear end and micky thompson slicks would pull the front end off the ground - went through a dozen A frame bushings in 10 years (I was getting about 7 miles to the gallon, but gas was 0.55 a gallon) LOL

[@bobo44donemilking51]

I had a ls 5 454 with a 4:10 rear ,it had a 4 speed and I got 12 mpg but gas was 40 cents lol

[@cuzz63]

People didnt buy an LS6 454 car for gas mileage.

[@thud9797]

Was gonna say, an LS6 and worried about gas mileage? 🤣🤣🤣

[@3602go]

Hopefully the items that are incorrect, will be replaced at some point.

[@traviscue2101]

I'd believe Patrick is on par w/ Galen Govier for Mopars as well as a Marti Report for Fords.

[@flypawels]

👍

[@brando7655]

What if somebody who wants to buy it doesn’t believe that your “certificate” is real? Lol or believable. How do you even start something like this

[@tryjames1ify]

What's the price

[@bobbywhitney593]

How much

[@Hooijnbvn]

So it’s not a 4 speed car, incorrect shocks and their are various other changes. I’m sorry, but I would not certify it. It’s just a clean 70 SS

[@DavesDrivesGarage]

Who in their right mind would care about the shocks on it at present lol? It’s an original LS6 454 4.10 cowl induction car, that’s what’s being endorsed. Basically none of these cars retain 100% authenticity. PGN has endorsed cars with no engine even present on site if I’m not mistaken.

[@thomasseliger2982]

Is this a video to show a very nice old car which it is, or a bingo game tryout. The niner niner 59 6ty two 11 b75 a 89 zoom switch button. It's an old car. Stuff has been replaced just like the rest of them.Thank you for sharing 🤦‍♂️

[@oveidasinclair982]

Beautiful car, I wish that GM included AC on the LS6 cars

[@thud9797]

They never did on any solid lifter big block.

[@landosfavorites5028]

Resonators on a Chevelle just don't belong

[@blevins6584mopar]

My friend is hellcat swapping a 1970 Chevelle convertible it was a 396. You think that'll increase or decrease the value of the car ⁉️🤔...🫣

[@cali2468]

Take a guess

[@blevins6584mopar]

Increase 🙄
