Making me miss my 73 Caprice Classic with 454/TH400.

1972 Chevy Caprice is my dream car one day I'm going to have one

No tool is the wrong tool if you don't break anything and you get the job done! I love my 72 Impala that was bought new by my grandparents. 400 small lock with TH350 trans and only 70k miles on it. The torque is quite impressive for a low compression engine pulling over 2 tons of car!

I had one exactly like that, with a 400 cubic inch engine. The interior was brown, not white. I bought mine used in '74. It was one heck of a car.

Sure is a lot easier for me to sit in my lazy chair and watch Mr Pliers work on old cars than for me to drag my butt down to the shop and get anything done myself.

hi there. enjoy the heck out of your vids. thanks for takin' us along....

I really love your old 2 door Chevy. Nice find.

It's fun watching the discovery of relics in the barn! My favorite pieces were the valve grinder, tail pipe stand, and the Cities Service can.

I had a 73 Impala sport coupe and seeing the 72 makes me miss my car a lot

I have the same year. 72’s FTW

Any tool is the correct tool for any job.

Enjoyed......................... 👍👍👍

At least the trunks not full of trash..score..I believe saw some bailer twain...one free garage pillage with purchase of car...sweet..

So cool! I am impressed by how you were careful, and methodically disassembled the steering column and shift linkage so the car could be moved, instead of just smashing the key out, or yanking the car around "as is". My first car was a 73 Caprice coupe, drove it over 240,000 miles with the original engine and tranny. The northeast weather finally consumed it though. I can honestly say that if someone offered my any car, I would chose that car in new condition, perhaps in convertible form with a 454 though. I dream of having the skills/money/facility to do a frame off restoration on one of these great cars.

Cool finds!!! As a kid I would place one matchbox car under a tire, wait for my mom or dad to leave. It was easier to pretend it was wrecked.

Nice score on what you got

I have owned a lot of 1972 impala and caprice I really enjoyed those cars, watch the frames on them, I have had a few repaired

my brother in-law had exactly the same car same color and yeah the white interior in the late 80's the previous owner gave him an extra set of wire wheels with it he put them on a couple times for a couple weeks but it looked better with the factory hub caps I think and the interior was spotless I always liked these cars since then I have pics of that car of course I'm in it lol I was 10 years old lol thanks for sharing mr goodpliers

I had one of those same color. I took the 400 small block out of it and put it in a 70s nova.
