  • 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!

    My husband bought a Chevelle for our son to fix up and get it running so he would have his own car , but knowing some kids like our son , he would rather blow his money on friends partying . Kids don't know how to be appreciative at times . My husband sold the car , wasn't in our sons name yet , so Chevelle went bye bye . It was metallic green , one of my favorite colors . Yours was in better shape bodywise and mechanical . Iam sure it will look sharper than what it was sitting in that barn . Real nice car , so beautiful ! 😍

    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.

    What's exceptional for drilling out spot welds even more than a spot weld drill is a double ended lath centering bit.
    They're awesome because they act a bit like a miniature step drill and as you drill the spot weld the top pops off before you get too far into the base metal.
