There really is something special with the G-Body. Especially the Buick. I think the 1987 Regal is the most beautiful car built since 1975 that isn't some super exotic. As for the condition of that Chevelle, that guy should be ashamed.
PowerNation dudes got it going on. YouTube ads not so much.
Dang! Really makes me wish I'd a kept at least one of these… Back in HS, in the mid-late 90s, I must have bought and sold 30 of these and other G bodies. Rather than get a lame job that paid squat, I took some doin yard work money and started hittin the tow yard auctions with my uncle. I had a pair of 78 Cutlasses and being I knew them pretty well, I went after all the G bodies I could find. With a family of bodymen, painters, and mechanics, I'd already started pickin up the car repair thing, so it wasn't too big of a deal to swap drivetrains around, and fix crash damage. Made great money for a HS kid and even better, I made probably ten times as much, selling the leftover parts once I discovered Ebay. At least I still have the one 78 that was my first car. Now I'm thinkin the Astro roof Cutlass may need a Regal friend with T tops.
This build is like a dream build for me. I use to have a 1984 Buick Regal. I dolled it up with a GNX fender flares, GN rear deck and spoiler and GN hood. My ride was all show no go with the stock carbureted V6. Wish I had the cash and knowledge to build it the way you guys set this up. I read an article about a Grey Regal that had upgraded rims 15×8 all around with a -10 offset. 235R60 BFGiodrich
Dam tommy you clean up really nice . I like your hair cut bud . Lol
Yeah, 10 years is just being lazy. It takes 20 minutes to change plugwires.
Those window guides need the felt on them. They gonna rattle like crazy.
As much as I like how the car came out, that front bumper doesn't work for me. It looks like a piece of finish trim fell off.
That's awesome what yall did for this guy. You guys are truly godsend and the show is awesome to watch. Wish yall had a video of changing a gas tank and lines for a 83 chevy Scottsdale.
not a fan of rock auto's customer service… more like no customer service.
Car looks great. Paint looks great. Holes in the bumpers are cheese…
Every driveway rescue is either a rich guy that could easily hire sombody or sombody like this guy…. Just be lazy and neglect your car and bam y’all will show up and do the work! Cmon! If anyone wants to see REAL car/truck content click this link and sub!

For letting this Chevelle get to this condition, this guy should be bitch slapped.
I hope that dude does fix it up a little more. But he wouldn't have had to if he didn't neglect it in the first place. Nice ride though I'd leave the Patina that's awsome.
Love that paint job. I had an 82 Buick regal. It was that seafoam green color . It was nice car bought it used with 52 thou on it. Ran like a champ that was back in the 90s.
Full restore on the Chevy the rims make it look stupid factory wheels look Better in that car…m
FINALLY ❤️❤️
People would kill to have a true 70 ss chevelle like that, it's sad to see it neglected.
