How am I doing?
550 hp. Street able. With the joe Martin treatment, hi sin to drag this car.
Lt4 QA1 suspension.
Cool ,Anythings possible with deep pockets and a fully loaded fab shop
That 55 turned out so kool. Joe and the guys are killing it, can’t wait for the Chevelle to be finished.
Never seen a chopped car look good. There’s a reason why 70 chevelle is everyone’s favorite, all the proportions are perfect. Chopping the roof would be a mistake
No kidding why would you cut up a car that is perfect from the factory
@@54raceman You'd chop a roof to improve aerodynamics to pick up some speed when you're going 140+ in the quarter mile. The factory didn't design the car to go that fast, so obviously, if you want to go fast, you need to change things.
Having a Vin and clear title it's every bit of 7500 to the right person maybe even more.
I have the same beer fridge in my barn ha ha ha awesome!!!
dude...I lived in Austin in the early 90s..was Bama brown on the radio doing the Bo and Bama show? I loved that show
That driveshaft come off right there, that's what we call a sling blade. Some folk call it a kaiser blade, I call it a sling blade.
How many other people are here because they saw Amanda ?
Get a girlfriend
She's one of the reasons I watched "Iron Resurrection"! Main reason lol! She's smokin!🥰👍
LoL !
Didn't know motor trend start showing a 'reality' show like discovery
Love the Chevelle but a 69 or 70 Boss Mustang was a Dream car of mine so anytime I see those cars worked on with respect is always a good thing to see love the show watch it any chance I can thanks for all the great memories and hope your future only gets better from here
Unbelievable skills and vision!!
I didn’t think it was going to be possible to turn a chevelle into a drag car…. But now I see that it’s possible!!
ROFLMAO. Yeah. Nobody ever builds "drag cars" out of Chevelles.
Joe Martin, always liked your bike builds waaaay back then on discovery. Glad I found this show, will be good to see your talent applied to cars
🧓 Bama is one person who is not going to lose a bent penny💯😂 he got to be on TV and it's more room for the next piece of stuff lol
Joe's actor would be Tim Mcgraw.
Love the new season. Love all the custom work
we Miss u guys.......come back.....
How is it possible that this Bama dude always seems to have the car they need? F O H !!!
You know it's a TV show right?
Bob's big boy statue. Not many people know what that represents.
It has been done before no secrets.
I believe 1 1/2 inches out of the A pillar should be just about right. About time someone had the balls. should look wicked
Perfect car for this project
Approved!!!
Denied
Fails tech
My first hotrod was a 70 Chevelle in 1979! But I made the mistake of letting a friend drive it so I could ride his bike (Harley) and he rolled it about 6 or 8 times there wasn't a body part left that wasn't bent. So all the running gear & seats, the console, went into a 1967 El Comino, SS hood.
Love this show
Back in the late 70's through most of the 80's I had a 1970 SS 396 (402) Chevelle with a transplanted LS6 454. Some say it is one of the more desirable cars, but at the same time I also owned one better...1970 Buick GS Skylark 455.
ROFL.MAO. So was it a 396 or a 402? The latter is not the former "bored out".
@@deeremeyer1749 1970 SS Chevelle's had a 396 badge on the fender, but where actually 402 cubic inch engine. You do not know what the F**ck you are talking about.
Have fun
That’s a Crazy low price, I gotta go out there. Here in California that car would be at least 15k or more
Love the way you make people's auto dreams come true
Awesome 👌Thanx for sharing your experience with your work
Have a Great Day 👍
God Bless America 🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸
There is nothing on that car that would make me believe "SS big block ".
Vin number tells all. That's why they showed the number.
@@Hanzyscure didn't realize ss designation was in the vin.
@@Hanzyscure ss designation is not on the vin or body tag unless it was built in Canada. Only on the build sheet.
@@IronChief Did you see the vin number or build sheet ?
@@Hanzyscure no I didn't. That's my point. No build sheet, no ss.
The same!!
Would flat refuse to chop after all that time in! I would honestly push the car outside and tell owner to come get it😑
No, don't cut the top.
Why not?
@@FreddyFunderbunz Because the perforations and symmetry are perfect now. There was a NASCAR 7/8 scale Chevelle (If I remember correctly) that Smokey built in '66 or '67. It was so perfect that it took some time to discover. That's one reason the have templates to this day.
Why not, there's a billion out there
Killed a nice car
A wolf man in a plaid shirt and Bobby socks and a gwenyth paltry look alike. Throw in a $1500 car body and you have a recipe for success 😁
Esse video mostra mais os mecanicos que o próprio carro...😮
That 70s split bumper Z 28 that you guys just bought on the show that I’m watching right now is not a split bumper split bumpers had a rubber nose and round park lights turn signals not the ones under the bumper because I have a 70 split bumper rally sport
Dude, you should have cut up a stock Chevelle to make it a drag car!
you should have saved at SS and restored it, kept it or flipped it later!!!
Aren't we supposed to tig weld rollcages?
Chromemoly has to be tigged, the others are preference, cleaner looking weld etc.
Should would like see a 1960 or 1970 chevelle 454 SS build,like that 1970s TA build like 4 to 8 years ago fire damage TA❤
Just hook a chain between the shitbox cheby and a mopar and drag the clunker !!!
When is the part 2 coming?
That's what i wanna know
if you don't know if an A body can be a drag car...then yeah, this is a puff piece (pun intended). so what would I do with it...well, since a clean A body goes for stupid money, that doesn't leave much less in the budget. since its going in a straight line, that means no need for an LS or a stroker small block to help out with handling. If I'm building for ET's, that means torque--an 8100 from the junkyard will do well, the question is pay up for the one company who sells heads, or just inject N2O to get atmosphere in there. Of course, I'll need a good exhaust port if I go that path, and that can be crutched with the cam timing and a very efficient exhaust system that pulls the air out (and a 3 angle valve job that helps the E valve flow better from seat to .03 inch lift, acting like overlap). Now I have to focus on launch--grab a bunch of rear coil springs meant for station wagons and Eky's and experiment with what works, probably go for an air bag as well.
If i'm building for best trap speed, that means HP, so I'll pick a roller cammed 454 out of any junkyard and stall the trans for 3,500 RPM or higher. I might be able to get away with softer launches and break fewer parts (until I have the budget to upgrade) while hoping to "run 'em down at the top end" of the quarter mile.
if that's really a real SS car, much less a big block one...don't be stupid and cut it up while thousands of Malibus rust away up north. Go cut and pro street or pro mod or whatever one of those "too far gone" and show off your talents. If it's a real piece of history, restore it--goodness knows everything you need is a catalog away.
Thought I was watching a 70 chevelle episode, and I get a 55 bel air episode, disappointment...
Ad ad ad ad ad
The question is how do you have a 70 Chevelle SS big block and NOT drag race it?
A 70 chevelle body with the title that’s that clean and they offered $2k? They’d have been escorted off my property real fast. Where I live that car in that condition would bring $10k all day long
Yeah that had to have been a “special I’m on TV price” followed up with an extra 5 or 6 grand just before they drove off
Yea maybe 2000 in 1993
3 k wow it’s worth $4k at least……😮
There are two big reasons why people watch this show and I bet ya know what they are 😉
Chop it and drop it👍
71 SS 454 is the desirable…….
70.
Hang on...let me grab my bubbke gum.
Not going to happen again that someone will give away a 70 ss.
If you were going to cut it up you should just use a Malibu instead of a big-block SS car
what a shame should have been restored
Needs less talking and more time lapses
Not KOOL , Now that Kool..
Yo los veía por TV cable en Argentina creo que por Discovery Channel, pero parece que cancelaron el programa hace 2 años
One thing to cut up a real SS but now to chop the top where is part 2 of this video
of course you can just need an open wallet
Wow.. i bought one for 125 bucks
Cut the top .. lol .. thats f'd up
Where's the rest of the 70 Chevelle story?
Eb n flow
I'd really like to enjoy this, but regardless it's never going to be independence or get road tripped home after a rebuild of sorts behind a La Squinta - squint you can find a half star rating.... It's prejudice of sorts I guess, but I think this particular car reached its internet build peak with the forklift body and frame straightening.
Airbrushed chrome? OK 😂
Oof. Mandi f’d her lips up. I don’t understand why people can’t just age gracefully
The same

Don't get me wrong, I understand the middle-aged blonde woman is attractive and only included for eye candy. However, she does absolutely nothing without another man being present to coach her. Once real work is to be done, she's nowhere to be seen in each episode. My guess is that she's in the background preparing "sammiches" for all the men who are actually doing the work. I love the show but please get rid of that pointless woman!!!
Me
im really diisapointed with this show lately.. really miss old concept, the prosess of building cars.. not drama, cinematic video.. who the fak really like closed up video...
This was my first car 🚗, it was amazing, I want another one.
God please help get another. 🙏
Not all cars look good with chop tops
👍🇺🇸👍
Bring back Shorty. He is no good on his own show.
Only reason you put that female in the thumbnail is to generate views. Click bait
I have 4 70 chevelles and can't give them away
Ok give one my way
Keep it original. Please dont chop it.
Oh wow, never seen it done. Hurry up before you lose the shop, foh
Fernando Ayres Sobral
PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH BARE METAL
Another one ruined
Stay inur lane
That's so ignorant don't touch the top
Don't view motor Trent shows.. I get more information from youtube.
Drag cars are a waste.
Don’t cut the top!!!
Didn’t he get that car from Joe in the first place
