.....??? .....do your patients have no patience ??? ......or are you just an idiot ??

Without a doubt a major project. Check out the rest of the channel regarding my current progress!

Wow an SS, must have been a sweet ride! Indeed, the 327 isn't crazy powerful, but still very usable & fun!

@@TheJimle67 As you know, those 327's would revv ! Prior owner worked in a transmissions shop so most likely he installed the TH400. My next car was a 1966 Chevelle SS 396, painted a burnt orange. That was my real street racer . Back then you bought these cars off the used car lots for $ 600.00 or so.

Thanks! Agreed, love having no computer & being simple to work on

18 months wow! I wish I could do a frame off, but realistically I can only make it a driver in my garage & budget. Best of luck with the seats! I just posted my 3 part videos finishing my seats, hope you check it out

An SS big block 4 speed, what a dream ride! I too suffer from overpaying on my projects, honestly thinking they're a great deal

You got a point there lol

Nice! Yea, I wish mine had the white light bezels. They are more desirable for sure, but these will have to do.

​​​@@TheJimle67there's company's that sell the corner light lense and chrome cage that goes over the lense but no company sells the housing for the lense it looks like ur car has the housing behind the filler metal if u do u can buy the lense n cage to put on there's also a small bracket that is sold also if u have the housing u can make it have the corner lights just by buying the lense chrome cage and the little bracket all is sold except the housing if behind that metal filler is a housing for a bulb your in business. There should be 2 spots for 2 screws one at the top n one at the bottom to hold the cage that goes over the lense. If u do have the housing chances are u already have the little bracket all u need is the lense n the chrome cage n of course a bulb.

Bolt action, love it , my 69 307 nova has a three speed bolt action. Hahaha

I think I remember about $300 ish

I use the term "restoration" loosely. Goal is really to get it road worthy first. You learn by doing, stay tuned & find out

@@TheJimle67 if there's anything I can help you with like you have questions please feel free to let me know. Prices on things what it takes to do a job and any questions you have you let me know I've done this for over 40 years

Thanks! I already posted my 3 part videos on the seats, check em out! There will be more as I progress

Good guess. about 7.5k, running but nowhere close to road ready.

It's not as easy as it sounds. Most stuff on the repro/new market is catered more to A-body chevys, camaros, & corvettes. Full size B-body bucket seats are slightly wider/larger & (from my knowledge) can be bought only used. Also Bench seat cars require additional mounting stud plates welded to the floors for buckets to be installed. For ease & budget, I happily stuck with the bench seats.

Yep it did, made registering much easier

@@TheJimle67 COOL

Could be! lol I just know he was a pretty nice dude

My 1st video shows the engine, transmission was fine. Yes, more videos in the future on the other stuff. Definitely, the previous owner (though a nice guy) had no idea what he was doing. Lot of car looks caked in filler. I was too ambitious when I bought this one

@TheJimle67 Thank you, just viewed it. This car has restoration value. Good buy.

Trust me I know. I tell people the same thing, to either non car people that want a classic or those thinking they can flip them. You have to love these cars enough that its worth going over budget, 3-6 months passed schedule, & still going after loosing all motivation. Not to mention the time researching.

​@@TheJimle67Make it road worthy and drive it, come what may.
