Mr. NICHOLS..... In a WORLD that has gone mad.....Your VIDEOS are so refreshing and awesome.....!!!! Thank you for your VIDEOS Sir...!!!

[@danielives379]

That is a VERY sweet ride. But to paint it black is beyond me... Fathom Blue with white interior and convertable top would be stunning!

[@jimbucci3474]

A '70 Chevelle with all of those options and being numbers matching should be fully restored and returned back to its original paint color

[@maddpeanut6313]

Ya gotta give us an "alright alright alright" when you do 70 SS Chevelles.

[@CarlRossi-l1e]

Hi I purchased this car its very nice , the owner had the original numbers matching transmission, radiator, condenser, shifter and console and drive shaft . I will bring the car to a much higher level , New interior complete , everything back to original . Undercarriage and engine high-end detail, correct 14in SS wheels and correct firestone tires. New rear bumper . The only thing am not going to change is the paint color , the paint is very nice , looks great. My cars are very high quality . I kept Intouch with owner for several months and final came to far deal .I wanted an LS 5 but so hard to find numbers matching Chevelle's with a build sheet. I have a very nice Monte Carlo SS 454 LS5 so the 396 will ne a nice addition to my collection. I appreciated all the comments and all those changes will be noted and corrected , like I said am just not changing the paint color, paint and stripes are vey nice.

[@dwaynea8177]

Beautiful Chevelle.. Thank you Patrick.

[@sum12see]

My mother's father Harry McCray, worked at the Baltimore GM plant from 1958 to 1983...He probably helped build the sweet ride!!

[@charleshaggard4341]

I noticed the A/C compressor missing. It would be a nice cruiser and most folks wouldn't know any difference.

[@SMcda]

I have all of the big block a/c components that will be part of the sale.

[@bigmountain7561]

Hi Patrick, would it be feasible to just blow the car out. Dip it and restore it to showroom as it was born?? The only reason I say that is that it’s not the original paint the AC has been taken out and it’s a 4 speed which it’s not!!! What’s your thoughts??

[@dreece2000]

I noticed the ac compressor gone immediately. The boot being off the alternator bothered me

[@gregorylyon1004]

This car is not worth that much effort. It's a driver car, not a survivor car. If Patrick didn't buy it, you don't buy it. The market is really tough right now on these classic cars. That's probably why the seller is having it authenticated so he can get more money. He wants to dump it before the bottom drops out of the market on his non original joke.

[@bigmountain7561]

Yes Greg, Patrick scoops up the good ones. You’re correct that car is not a candidate for a rebuild, just fix it and drive it!!

[@arthurwright255]

I've heard the term body-on-frame and unibody. What is a classic car like this considered? I don't have much knowledge on cars but would like to learn more. This Chevelle has got to be one of the coolest cars I've ever seen.

[@snakeyhedger]

Considering how that car was built, why does someone make these changes? They didn’t restore it because restore means take back to original. If you want to float around on radials, go buy a new car. 15” wheels with lower profile radials don’t fill the wheel wells like 14” wheels and original white letter bias plys. Nice despite all that.

[@gregorylyon1004]

This car is a daily driver car, not a survivor car. If Patrick didn't buy it, you don't buy it. Non original

Beautiful car. Thanks for sharing Patrick.

Thanks Patrick!! Beautiful Find!! Gorgeous Car!!

[@22kpar1xcyberdyne9]

I would drive the chittt' out of that mofo back here in Kentucky. It looks great. But that hot Florida sun will heat that black paint hotter than a blasting furnace. Must be miserable to own and drive it down there.

[@JamesSmith-oe1ot]

Our Baltimore L34 SS conv is a Jan car and also has the convenience package option. What is really cool in that package is the CD2 washer fluid monitor that this car has. Not very many of that option out there. Managed to get a spare a few years back. Keep up the good work! This was a good one. Have to check your pics out.

[@winstonmccollum8992]

This car has some issues that you didn't even mention. The heat press on the door panels and seats is flat as a pancake, the headrests have incorrect covers on them, the SS emblems on the front fenders are installed too high on the fenders, and on the deck lid the Chevelle emblem isn't even there! LOOKS LIKE A "PLEASE HOLD MY BEER RESTORATION". Makes me wonder what else is going on that we can't see.

[@rogerchevelle8543]

It's great to see a new video Patrick, Beautiful Chevelle

[@C.S.Sensei]

Patrick, I've been missing the videos, but that's the "nature of the beast."You can't just "wish them out of hiding. " A spectacular car. I just saw Nikki six 71 Chevelle convertible sell at B-J for 100k. Really nice car. I should've checked again first, but I know it was Cranberry Red, White/White, 71. I'm pretty sure it was a 71, not 72. It was 100k even. - I would Cruz to shows as is, Gently 😁. It looks great. It does have the Chrome strip under the headlights you say are present on earlier builds. The glare outside made it hard to tell until the grill shot at the end. Going by current Mecum & B-J auction numbers. I would think it an insult to offer anything south of 100k. Factoring in a $15-20k or more perfect Fathom blue paint & trans swap back to original. Great Job. Thanks.🇺🇲

[@dreece2000]

I would rather have the 4 speed.

[@C.S.Sensei]

Patrick, I have to say I'm a little sick that you didn't find that Real LS6 instate sale car channel 5150 "mopar lovers" just put up. Would've loved to see it go to a real Chevy Chevelle man. It was great seeing a sweet LS6, but the BS this guy was laying on thick, they must've stolen the car cheap. I just hate people who have a "fake passion." That's why you're the only Chevelle channel I watch. ⛪️🇺🇲

My 1970 SS 454 Monte Carlo was built in Baltimore and still has some flaking undercoating

It's missing its AC compressor. And, being an early car, shouldn't it have the bright moldings under the headlight bucket panels?

@@josephloguidice1841 Thank you for your very kind comment. I also grew up in the 80's . I'm only 59 and was blessed with the means to purchase that Chevelle and restore it to a very nice driver. I don't brag about owning one l consider myself fortunate enough to take care of it and give it a good home.

[@gregorybaker9616]

I do understand it takes a lot of money to restore a car. If I'm not mistaken a recent LS5 in great shape from Texas went for about $80K, can anyone verify that?

[@67697072]

Trunk emblem delete ??

[@patrickglennnicholsmusclec1674]

The holes were filled in. Evidently the individual responsible wasn’t a fan of the deck lid emblem.

​@@patrickglennnicholsmusclec1674Hi Patrick. When l did a frame on restore of my Forest Green L34 4spd w/white stripes, l chose not to put on the 396 emblems under the SS fender letters. I think it looks clean without them. I could install them if necessary l do have them. Thanks for the great informative videos.

[@gregorylyon1004]

That car wasn't worth authenticating. The only original component in it is the engine and broadcast sheet

[@georgegbalzano9239]

This is an A/C car in South Florida, BUT where is the compressor?? Car was restored with the wrong color, some aftermarket parts, no a/c and transmission was changed to 4 speed? (Yes you stated the original is still included) Granted, it's still a NICE car, but all that SEVERELY affects its CURRENT resale price. If you're NOT listing it here, then it's likely WAY TOO MUCH... Thanks for bringing this video, don't get me wrong, Patrick keep up the good work!!! Best Wishes!!

That car is a driver car, not a survivor car. It better be cheap. Patrick didn't buy it, so you don't buy it. Non original joke with highway gearing
