Stripping The Chevelle's Dash & Unboxing New Parts! Chevelle Restomod Ep.4

[@tuxedoblackcat1680]

I like how every old muscle engine looks like when the air filter sits on top shaped like a circle.

[@Sultanvirile]

It is sexy tbh 😃

[@lsitnik]

Great video, Kyle! Those gauges, though! Sweet!

[@saabkyle04]

Yes they are! Thank you!

[@joealex65]

I've been enjoying this series a lot, and makes me happy to know you already have a plan for everything! keep up the good work! I know that Chevelle will turn out more than amazing! 😁

[@peter455sd]

I used to work on these cars in the 80s,it's not only very entertaining but the results are also very gratifying

[@fergusonfirearms473]

I hadn't even thought of changing out the wiring harness on my build, but now I'm definitely going to do it. Thanks for another great video!

[@FulgerTheDude]

This project excites me the most!

[@287jonny7]

Loving this Chevelle series so far.

[@theenchanteduniverseoflife1450]

Old cars like that, that's very cool

[@timbuktug3321]

I was waiting for another update on this car and here it is so far. Awesome work Kyle.

[@RichieRouge206]

That wiring loom kit is amazing! What a great upgrade. The HVAC unit is amazing too. Such a good build series Kyle!

[@CrazyIvan1337]

Oh man, ALL of this stuff is gonna be exciting to see getting installed!

[@rtrhobby1893]

The project is coming along great and the new parts you have for it look really nice!

[@NikolitheRussian]

I love the radio presets in old cars. My 78 F100 has a factory am/fm radio that has dual presets, 5 for am and 5 for fm using the same buttons.

[@alastairschwinnmeridian2006]

I got to say that's a great experience to do that Kyle taking a car part and rebuilding it👍 I know some parts are not easy job sometimes I'm so into cars

[@houseofno]

So many cracks in that interior it almost qualifies as extra storage. Especially that steering wheel and dashpad. Good luck with the interior. Amazing for a car pushing sixty years old.

[@SpaceHuskyXnation]

Mr Kyle I really do enjoy watching your videos been watching them for years I'm restoring my first project that's a 2002 Chevy Tahoe is going to be my restoration project stay tuned for more updates on it love the video keep them coming you rock sir 🏁😎😊

[@ivanpodrez3403]

Another great video! I am thoroughly enjoying every part of this Chevelle build. Good job Kyle!

[@daynerussell7293]

Just got into your videos and I'm just going to say the crew cab s10 is a dream of mine .....

[@byronherndon7393]

Good job SK04 looking forward for you to get the car built up and ready Chevy Chevelle🙂👍🏽

[@TheBestGamingCritic]

Nice video. It'll be cool to see this with the new instruments.

[@MrGriffin23]

Awesome video! I’m restoring a 71 Chevelle and also have a 71 Skylark Convertible. So there will be some similarities to what you are doing as I am to mine. I’m tuned in.

[@saabkyle04]

Very cool! Thanks for watching!

[@dennismenjivar8895]

Looking great man! Can't wait to see the progression

[@Cstoreri]

Quite the project!

[@fazerainbow5674]

what a fanstatic video kyle this car is going to look sooooo goood with all the part you have lyeing around the shop lolol i cant wait when you start putting stuff together the process is going to look super good cant wait to see the finsihing touches on it once its done but i know it wont be for a long time but something to look forward to in the future thumbs up and shared

[@jameshill8711]

Excellent upload. Thankyou.

[@saabkyle04]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@anthonybarkasysr5029]

Being a 4 door "family" car, it is surprising how clean everything is. Except what was under the back seat when you first started. No surprise guests or pests. Just be on the lookout for maybe a factory marking left behind by a assembly line worker. Sort of like an Easter egg hunt. Good luck on your cleaning. Be well, looking forward to the next video 👍

[@saabkyle04]

Thanks a lot for watching!!

[@azadvartan8259]

Amazing work 👍🙏🙏

[@tucksmith8300]

That car is going to look good when you are done

[@justinunger38]

I have a suggestion put a hood ornament on this car and put brembos breaks instead of wilwood breaks on this car as well. when this car is finish papa slim will look at this thing and say that's a hom dinger

[@jamesbeaman6337]

Why Brembos rather than Wilwood?

[@justinunger38]

@@jamesbeaman6337 something different for him to try

[@randyluca6339]

Kyle, you have the patience of Jobe. The dismantling of your Chevelle looks so tedious. I would be pulling my hair out if I would tear my 69 Malibu down like that. You make it look so easy and fun. I can’t wait to see the finished product. Kudos to you. Yellow Malibu from Ohio.

[@saabkyle04]

Thanks so much Randy! That patience comes from many lessons learned LOL. This took me a few days to do with filming. It wasn't hard necessarily, but it was definitely tricky since most everything attaches to the instrument bezel and not the core structure of the dash (which there isn't much). I really wanted to see how it was all attached and it was quite fascinating, especially how the original A/C was set up!

[@darkshadowgamingii]

I miss this channel its almost 2 years since i last watched a video

[@The90sAreRad]

I love these build series. Does awesome work and these videos are also relaxing at the same Maybe just me? Lol

[@maddogbarfog2492]

Those Dakota gauges look great, but I noticed they miss out on one of the subtle cool features of the 69 cluster. The original high beam indicator is a blue Chevy bow tie. It’s the main reason I haven’t updated mine. I looked up the Dakota gauges and, sadly the indicator isn’t replicated.

[@robertlombardi2228]

Kyle - Another great video 👍

[@saabkyle04]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@lucascarreviews]

At first, I thought the title said ‘Dave Chapelle’ 🤣🤣🤣

[@carlosc30]

lol

[@briarshivers2252]

What was that part number for the heater/ac unit? The restomod replacement one that keeps everything inside and not in the engine bay?

[@ZacharyWhite25]

On the subject of the steering wheel, are you going to keep the column shifter? Or are you going to give it a floor/console shifter? I’d like to see it stay a column shift car.

[@1leggeddog]

You know, they make modern headunits that look like retro ones. Things like bluetooth and aux connections are no problem now for restorations

[@saabkyle04]

Yeah I know, I'm looking at some options from RetroSound. We'd like to have those features without taking away the original "look". Neither of us want to have some crazy sound system, just a decent upgrade.

[@JoseRivera-ym3wj]

@@saabkyle04, it's safe to say that it will be upgraded from the one front speaker of the AM radio to one on each corner, right? Maybe a bass unit and that's it.

[@TheTkirk]

Putting together a 69 Chevelle Dash and everything upfront. Great video, I’m going to reach out to you if I need your help lol.

[@imranabbasi7871]

Good luck 👍

[@79tazman]

Remember while you have that out to replace the heater core doing it when you have it torn down will be easier then having the heater core go later and having to do it

[@bridger6101]

Do you think you'll make the interior modern? And have led lights? That would be awesome.

[@carlosleon1162]

Those Dakota clusters vintage look like old school were you got it from.?

[@peterstean2138]

How do you think the dash was attached at the factory? It looks like it would be as complicated to fit as it was for you to remove it...

[@saabkyle04]

The dash core is welded to the body. Thankfully that part isn't rusted out so it doesn't have to be removed.

[@Vaino_Hotti]

One thing that baffles me with the VintageAir systems is they all seem to lack a fresh air intake. All air is just circulated.

[@saabkyle04]

You are correct, but it's not necessarily a bad thing. Most aftermarket AC systems cycle the compressor when in defrost mode. This dehumidifies the air so the window does not fog up just like a modern car system and unlike the factory AC system that came when these cars were new. It is much less complicated and provides about the same results as introducing outside air. Just look at how complex the OEM AC setup was in this car and you see why they haven't made a system that incorporates fresh air ducting. Plus, this will be a much cleaner setup that'll eliminate a lot of components and free up a ton of space in the engine bay.

[@houseofno]

@@saabkyle04 I totally agree with you. I haven't tried it myself, but this definitely the best of both worlds. Trying to rebuild an antiquated AC system outdated by decades only to get a substandard experience just isn't worth it. Ditto for trying to retrofit a newer system into an older car. Vintage Air makes some very good units. A shame my 1988 BMW 750iL isn't supported.

[@ervn2466]

Are you keeping the factory style radio or going to a resto radio that looks old but is internally new with modern features

[@saabkyle04]

I want to do one of the resto radios, I'm currently looking into options.

[@ervn2466]

@@saabkyle04 good place to look is classiccarstereos.com got one for my 51 Ford Victoria off there and it’s been great. You just put your model year in and it gives you a whole slew of options to pick from.

[@matthewhayford5466]

Did you ever finish the new shop.

[@saabkyle04]

Not yet, progress has been very slow.

[@legostar55]

I think it would be so cool if you kept the factory radio. Fixing older radios shouldn't be too hard and you'll have it match the car.

[@saabkyle04]

There are new radios styled to look like the originals that offer AM, FM, Bluetooth and USB inputs for phones. Retrosound is the brand I'm looking at. It's a better option for us.

[@NewBrunswickRailfanner]

Nice!

Very big from what it was only able to do. Modern units are around that same size, but are so capable with a lot of features.

[@herbielover535]

This video reminded me of the time you put that old stock am radio (that didn’t work) In your Ford Fairlane 500 the light green one, what happened to the sports coupe one?

[@saabkyle04]

Ahhhh good times! To this day I still don't know if I installed that radio right haha. These old radios are finicky. I sold the Sports Coupe a while ago. I still miss it because it was incredibly nice. The issue is, being on youtube full time, I need to be able to make content and generate revenue on the vehicles I have (projects). I had a decent amount of money tied into that Fairlane and it just didn't make sense to keep it at the time.

[@herbielover535]

Ah, the radio still looked good though

[@icerazar713]

Organized? Don't you know that half the fun of building a car is scratching your head trying to figure what goes where. 😂😂😂 When you're cleaning up the old Chevelle parts, do you use a shovel or a shovelle? 😂😂👍

Pretty much!! I get stressed out too easy and lose track of what's right in front of me LOL. I try my best but it rarely works out, we'll see how it goes! 😅

why wouldn't u just drop the whole dash like 6 bolts . Your not doing it right at all first take the pad off thing drop the steering column then take the bolts holding the dash board. All your doing ripping stuff apart.
