CHEAP HOT RODS STILL EXIST! Muscle Car Hidden In Plain Site

Everyone wants a cheap hot rod right? Well the name brand/popular year cars are hard to find and extremely pricey. I wanted to do a build series on a CHEAP, off year car. This allows anyone to dip their toes in the car world before re mortgaging the house.

One thing l noticed nowdays when l take my classic out for a cruise....How fast and crazy people drive! I used to get more smiles and waves, thumbs up.... now mostly tailgating and middle fingers....l wish people would just relax...and be more like Canadians... lol..l Love your channel ❤️

[@alanmerritt860]

I don't have that experience. Why would you get the middle finger?

[@alittlebitofanything6345]

You are so right in the States same situation not enough of Police to control this problem or they just dont care and do the bare minimum. I cant go anywhere without feeling like Im being pushed and made to hurry everywhere I go, ridiculous. I shop mostly at night that helps alot and buy many things online thru Amazon to avoid the pushy drivers and this problem. Looking to move to a rural area now,LOL!

About 10 years ago I thought 4 doors were the secret to getting into the muscle car world on a budget. Now it’s finally gaining traction.

[@edwardalamo2507]

Nothing wrong with a 4dr sedan, just remove the back door handles

[@ericbest9562]

Yeah all the really famous popular cars have all been bought up, restored, customized, whatever.... Then the trucks got snatched up, then they got around to the four doors and wagons, now the late 70s and 80s stuff is getting got, even the less popular stuff that can be made into something is getting gone. I started looking for a 70s Corolla because they make cool little Japanese sports cars with a little suspension work and wheels they look and handle great along with plenty of room for performance in those 4 cylinders. Now that stuff is getting gone too, prices on them is insane, what was a $500 car in the early 2000 is now $5000

[@staceyrenner5418]

Other than replacing what needs to be and a bit of a tune-up on the 6 banger I wouldn't change a damn thing. Nothing wrong with having a reliable cruiser, not everything has to have 500 horsepower to be fun. I mean it doesn't hurt, but this thing would be a great road trip rig as is. I'd love to find something like this, get some friends together and take a trip down to Speed Week in August.

[@paulhare662]

100% agree. There's too much fun to be had with a reliable "old car". I did a 64 Chevy II 4 door in the late 90s. Rebilt the 230, left the powerglide and drums on it and drove it every day. An outfit named Kanter Auto Parts sold kits mail order (remember that) a complete front end kit and a brake kit and it was good to go. $1500 total spent, 10 years and 70k miles of fun.

[@TrashcanGarage]

Yeah. A lot of folks who are mechanics are more impressed at ppl who can keep those old motors running. I had a 63 Savoy with a clean slant six and it always got ppl's attention.

[@jeffhunter2553]

A good running straight 6 will take you anywhere you want to go. We had a Biscayne my parents bought new in 67 was still running strong in the 80s till it got rear-ended. My mom sold it for 80 bucks to a guy who made a hunting buggy out of it for all I know it might still be out there.

[@hellonwheelz3317]

Anyway, its a lot more fun to drive a slow car fast, than it is to drive a fast car slow. And way more affordable.

[@Ragtop_Jalopy]

I appreciate what you are saying! I've been a hot rodder since the early 70's, and watched prices go totally nuts. I've belonged to various car clubs in the past, where members looked down on 4-door or 'other' makes....I've known some young couples with limited funds, but wanted to have fun in a unique car, but none of the $$$ to step into a big-engine car with all the chrome ---- I go out of my way to applaud them,...that 4 door is really special to them...that's what it's all about. If it's a 4-door or basic car ''and'' available, at a good price, go for it!!! There is definately a 'bonus' to 4 doors, with a family, or getting a bit stiff in middle-age. Hot rodding is what each person makes of it!!! Thank you for your insight on this very important matter!!!

[@JayCee-yy6oc]

I agree, give Mur the Biscayne. The value of the fun he would have dialing her back in and the joy he would have of reminding the world how great the simplest Chevy is would far exceed any value the channel will get from that old girl. I wish i could give my Dad the '50 Chevy sport coupe we never got started. Mur wants the car as is, let him have it i say

That’s a great score. Here’s my 2 cents: * The world has enough 4 door to 2 door conversions. Leave the doors alone * KZbin is very short on 6 Cyl content. Either trick out the stock motor, or build up a GM 292 that will sit right in its place.

[@darrylcampbell4411]

Here in brazil V8s were really expensive so a lot of people build Gm's straight 6 stead They are a great engine! a fully build one can make up to 400NA hp or nealy a 1000hp on boost, and the sound is really unique, like a rotary/2jz mix

This the perfect entry-level hot rod---get everything working properly, do a few sheet metal repairs, a little bit of interior work, some Black Trem-Clad on the underside, patch in and buff the paint, new windshield, Cheap exhaust.

I grabbed my 76 Sedan DeVille two years ago for $3200. Runs great. Paint is shot but she's 500 powered with flawless chrome and turns heads constantly. Battleship Hotrod. As for buying out of town, 1000% agree! The caddy was almost literally in my back yard. However, I just bought a big block Chevy pickup for $1400 that was an hour and a half into banjo country. No rust, blue on blue, excellent interior, extended cab with overdrive and a 454. Drove it home flawlessly.

[@TheWalkmanRotation]

Dan-100 percent agree. I've had 100's of cars and lots of stuff I shouldn't have sold. I always wanted a '68 Dodge Charger 440 R/T-like the Bullitt car. But in 2022-I bought a '73 Imperial LeBaron 4 door hardtop with the power vent windows. Why? The front end is BADASS-the rear lights are awesome,it's rare,HUGE,comfortable-and has a 440-and the best part? I'll be the only one at the car show or cruise night with one.

[@adamjames43010]

We found a 67 Biscayne 4 door for less than $500, and since then we've picked up 4 more Impala trim levels all $600 or less. Even scored a 67 Impala SS. Anything 60's chevys, if you can get them as a fairly complete car, they are easy to work on, plenty of parts available and they are sooooooo fun to drive! My 2 door Belair with a straight 6 and 3 speed is a blast, and it gets a ton of looks!

[@jeffhunter2553]

Having a straight 6 is awesome until you need parts for it. Recently I went to the local parts store and told the young man I need points plugs and condenser for a 73 F100 with a 300 straight 6. He just kind of looked at me like a cow staring at a new gate. I did get my parts the next day.

[@AJsHotRodsNrepairs]

It's a parts avaliblity thing. 350s are slut motors there all over the place and easy access of parts. Nothing wrong with 6s. Just harder to find parts

[@Torrious]

Well I’ll tell you a few things wrong, doesn’t make much power, doesn’t sound as good as a 350, and not nearly as much aftermarket support. No reason for me to keep the straight 6 unless I’m daily driving the car or keeping it original

[@Oilerfan1989]

16 yrs ago we put our '63 Laurentian 4door on the road. 283 with a glide, Mexican blanket interior, new dual exhaust, black steel rims with chrome lugs and beauty rings, painted the roof white and had fun. Back then alot of people stuck their noses up in the air but we loved it. And that was what we could afford

[@BillyJoefromMtVernonMo]

my 55 Chevy hot rod is a 4 door and when you tell someone you have a one the first thing they say is "is it a 2 door?" when I drive it and see the dash and hood all I see is 55 CHEVY

[@my567car]

My brother bought a 1966 four door Biscayne back around 1970 or so. It was the car that started my love affair with the Bow Tie cars. It was special ordered by a doctor and he bought it as a trade in from a dealership. What was under the hood made it special. A 375hp 396 with a TH400 and posi rear end. The car screamed! He took off the 396 badges and replaced them with 283 emblems, and then went on to win a lot of street races. I still have one of the 396 emblems.

[@americanrambler4972]

The good thing about these big old 4 doors. Ease of access! Since many of us in the hobby have passed our skinny nimble spring rooster years, the open rear portal and the shorter front doors make entry and exit a whole lot easier than those long wide two doors. There is a reason new 2 door family cars no longer exist.

[@sneakysgarage2412]

Do something REALLY different with it and make it a 3 door, a 2 door sedan on the driver's side and leave the 4 door sedan on the drinker's side. Steelies and dog dishes required, no trim rings. Then put a T5 behind that 6 banger and have fun with it. I'd give my left lugnut for something like that!

[@sgtyork9330]

Grandma had a 66 Chevelle 2 dr sedan 300 model. It's mine now and I pulled the 194 six and Powerglide first thing. Now it has a 427 Rat .040" over bored with forged TRW pistons, Eagle rods, Comp Cams hydraulic lifter cam etc. 750 Holley carb, Hooker headers, Muncie M-20 four speed. Still waiting to install all new front suspension with power disc brakes and a 9 inch rear with posi carrier and 3:91 gears. I have new 5 spoke mags from Jegs with TA radials. Go big block Dan! Smiles per gallon is most important.

[@americanrambler4972]

One of the things that make these cars attractive is the base models were decanted on chrome trim. If you have noticed, it’s a thing people do with old cars. They remove the “extra” trim for a cleaner look. So the base cars have the more modern cool look.

[@AndyGeesGarage]

One of the most fun cars I’ve had was my 70 Impala 4 door hoopty lowrider on air ride. So much fun! I also had a 67 Biscayne 427 4 speed I bought at an estate sale cheap 25 years ago. Had it for about 5-6 months and sold it for $15k many times what I paid for it. The same car showed up for sale last year and went for $120k 🤦‍♂️ If the 2door post conversion is possible go for it. There’s nothing tougher than a 2 dr post , big block, Biscayne. Even if it stays 4 door doing a big block with a 4 speed and keeping the bench seat interior would be cool AF

If you've never had a slightly hopped-up 6cyl you're missing out on something you might dig. Grind out the one barrel manifold and put a 2bbl on it, a 3" exhaust with a decent muffler, a header if you're into it and you have something that sounds great, is torquey and gets good mileage. If you want more, find a used head cheap, have it cut for a compression bump, port match it, a 4 angle valve job and you've spent $300. It's like a pitbike compared to a Hyabusa but even the 'Busa jockey's love pitbikes

[@johnstelluto9101]

Looking forward to the Biscayne restoration, Dan. I'd like to see the engine cleaned up and rebuilt. That's a pretty solid engine and you can get a lot of power out of it just by adding double y headers, an Offenhouser aluminum intake, 4 barrel carb and an MSD ignition. You could maybe pull the head and clean up the valves, add hardened seats, new springs and rockers?- Balance the crank and pistons, etc. The body is pretty clean and you can handle welding new patch panels. A floor shifter would look nice, steering wheel and a dash pad. Take the hydraulic system out of the 47 and put it on the Biscayne, too, would look cool-a very nice low-rider! Can't wait to see this. Take care!

1957 Pontiac 4 door hardtop enigma. Bought new in state. I'm the third owner. Car is titled (a lot aren't but that's another issue). Previous owner used it for a work car before deciding to hop it up a bit. Had the mill machined and rebuilt, shot the car in shit-brown primer then parked it for almost 30 years before I got it. Mostly solid. And of course it runs like new. Two issues I'm working on, one you didn't cover: wiring (old cars are notorious for having wiring issues and ppl need to take care. Rodents can make a mess under your dash). The other is relocating the master cylinder from beneath the floor up to the firewall. Then she'll be close to road worthy. It even came with vintage old Cragars and nos tires that were never on the road.

Hot Rods used to be all about taking what you had, and making it better/ faster with whatever you could find .

Totally agreed, Dan. I have had quite a number of cars, 2 door hardtops and even a few 4 door sedans. They actually all drive the same which is cool. Fun fact for me, I have a 68 Mustang built quite nicely, 347 4 speed yahdee dawdee do. It sits in my shop barely turning a couple hundred miles a year. I also have a decently redone, not nicely redone 76 F150 4x4 redone to totally stock. Guess which one I drive all the time. Why? Because it starts, runs and drives like it did out of the factory. So what am I saying? Just find a good car and make it drive so it’s fun and relaxing. People tend to relate better to the everyday cars than to the super rods. Enjoy!!
