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

[@A-1ActionServices]

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!

I started out using the old style primer---surfacer. My friend was a painter at a dealership and showed me all about the 2K primer-surfacer. BIG difference! Once I got to the point of spraying the final coat before sanding, I would spray the final coat of 2K primer---surfacer then let the car sit out in the direct sunlight for at least a full week, preferably two weeks. That way I satisfied that the last coat of primer---surfacer was fully cured and had done all the shrinking it was going to do. Then I would do the final wet sanding with my Eastwood 12 inch rigid sanding block using a mist coat of flat black to see low spots.

Absolutely beautiful car too bad it wasn't the 70 model

[@CJColvin]

I hear you brother.

[@goratgo1970]

I do agree, although I am considering a 71 rear bumper to match 4 round rear to 4 round front.

[@trillrifaxegrindor4411]

zero difference other than 2 headlights and four tail lights

71

Early 2000s Discovery Channel vibes. Where has channel been all my life?

[@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

[@deryldavis5003]

I’d like to know if there was any mods on the floor to fit that transmission in.

[@brianward6663]

Lot of extra work on that trunk lock when you you could of just take the back seat out and go in that way to unlock trunk that way with pliers with no damage done to the lock.

[@piehamcake1]

The quality of this build and attention to detail is much better than anything I’ve seen for sale lately I’ve been searching for a chevelle and can’t find anything worth buying everyone wants 70-100k for a piece of crap and I find out this car sold at an auction for 42k I would have bought it

[@superchuck3259]

So they lost their tails on it. 100k in part for sure.

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.

[@adolfofiguerefo8724]

Nice video. Way to do it. Still a pipe dream to the average person who wants to drive and enjoy it before they croak.

[@abevigoda3149]

Title should be: "Chassis, partial body and some parts of a 1972 Chevelle used to complete a new car."

[@01041965100]

Old parts used....frame, left rear fender, right door panel, and steering wheel...it's the same with every show. That's why I'd rather watch, like, vgg, or junkyard digs..they keep pretty much the whole car.

[@abevigoda3149]

@@01041965100 One would assume that's the point of a restoration, these guys are short of slapping the bumper of an old car into a new one and claim they restored the old car!

[@KrazieK44]

Great Job !

[@markblackburn8685]

I like the work you guys have done on this car but let's be honest. You took a barn find that was actually in pretty great shape and basically just built a completely different car. I mean there's not much left of the original car and how many people watching this could afford anything close to a build like this. I know I can't. But I did learn a couple things

Wow!!!!!! What a Superb movie I have just watched. An absolutely Gorgeous vehicle to Restore completely from scratch to the Finished and shining Diamond that she looks like, and then to finish off, a Incredible drive through some really Gorgeous scenery. You Guys are so Professional and High quality Expertise. Thank you, thank you very much for a Great Movie. Have a Fantastic Weekend to the both of You. Jonathan. B.

[@thepaulguy]

That car was so clean UNTIL I saw the headliner going in. Why in the hell would you leave the inside of the roof all rusted up?!?!?!?!?!?!

[@macdaddy22250]

Sorry asses

[@logik4264]

No rust here. It's old sound deadening mat glued to the roof

[@senior_ranger]

Amazing what you can do with $75,000 in product and a half million in expert labor!!! Thanks, a treat to watch.

[@martinbayliss3868]

Well done. 1972, a good year. American cars from that era are so cool!

[@shannonvaughan4354]

Excellent details. I like it. I'm hoping that you can do the same with the deck filler, rear valance, and drip rails. Thanks

[@Hard_7_Iron]

Ahhhh The Tail of the Dragon is AWESOME! Love riding that road on 2 wheels.
