Full Build: Taking A 1972 Chevelle Barn Find Back To Its Former Glory

The guys drag a classic Chevy out of a hay barn. They install a plethora of new body panels, upgrade the suspension and revamp the tired factory interior pieces. Next, the guys look at how to massage body panels too perfection before laying down the dazzling metallic baby blue paint job. Under the hood, Marc and Tommy plug a monster bowtie powerplant. To pay it off, they take it to a famous road in the Smoky Mountains.

Locksmith here. It's to bad you weren't close to me. Key Code for trunk is on the glove box lock. We charge $5.00 for a single sided key by code... Plus it would've worked the doors as well. Just so long as nothing has ever been changed. Also, the codes might have even been on the original bill of sale. Great Vids by the way!

watch this content,build yours with a manual......thats what my trans am has

[@TT.357]

@@trillrifaxegrindor4411 the problem here is money unfortunately. I can’t drop 15-20k on a roller, 5-10 on an engine, trans, and controller, and another 10 on everything else. Not to mention all of the tools and stuff it would take to put something like this together. I don’t even have a welder.

[@trillrifaxegrindor4411]

you need to go with something newer ,it needs less in the handling department,parts are much cheaper for 1980 and up cars.i have an 86 trans am..generally 1980 and up g bodies,f-bodies,fox bodies are much cheaper buy in.i love pre 1972 stuff but its too damned expensive to build

I love their show. I really enjoyed how they did this build and not just cuz I love me some Chevelle! I really like the fact that they tore it down, refurbished and put it all back together. THEN they tested all the systems on the road. Last, they did what I would want a builder to do if I could afford it - they safety checked all the nuts and bolts throughout. Good stuff. ONE QUESTION - How come we never got to here that engine run? If it was running, they had that LOUD guitar over it doing power chords. C'mon guys, I wanna hear that engine sing.

So True!

Heck of a build and great video. I hope when the cameras were off you punched the gas pedal a bit. I can only imagine what that area looks like in the fall. Put it one my bucket list. Thanks again for the video and Happy new year to y'all.

[@danfrombam]

Nice build, happy you guys have unlimited funds to do things perfect. Now I’m going back out to play with my practical build.

[@joedo5886]

They did a full every nut and bolt Barrett Jackson build , unintentionally of course

[@unmalo2768]

Best looking Chevelle I've ever seen!

[@TheAlabamaKid]

I'd be tempted to make a sleeper. Keep the body and interior stock(aside from a new radio) but put a good engine/transmission combo in it.. Along with a new rear end if needed.

[@thecman26]

Kinda like project Blue Hair Nova? That was a cool build!

[@kurtiskraft4124]

Ok m I'm big block

[@kurtiskraft4124]

I'd go big block

[@luatasifalaniko]

Good work guys..

[@movieworldtvpeopleplacesthings]

Great build... learned a lot. Thanks for sharing...

[@MrWeb49]

Great job. Was interesting watching the built. 👍👍👍

[@dalewilson4233]

Would love to see a financial overview on what goes into a car like this.

[@wr450sm5]

Labour is the biggest killer. If you're wrenching and fabbing yourself its not half as bad as you think. Now it just depends on the quality of parts you choose cheap va expensive and the extent of the restoration.

[@k.g.kennedy9471]

Good work Lads. your next level builders and that takes work and commitment that is the difference between backyard and all pro.

[@gerryj8839]

BEAUTIFUL BUILT! (And I'm a FORD guy). A few questions though... How much $ did it cost to build? What kind of wheel HP did it put down after the mods to make it fit the car? And who ends up getting this beautiful car in the end? Do y'all sell it?

[@emilianomarrero8958]

U guys are the best Duo working on restoration car that Chevelle turn up to be a beauty

[@jerylcarter330]

I don't have a lot of shows I care to look at, but this will always makes the cut.👊👍
