1970 SS454 LS6 Chevelle Comes Out Hiding in the Pacific Northwest Over 50 YEARS!!! 

Thanks for following my work.

Well said!

Thats because they both make up imaginary lists that only kids give a $h!t about.

Patrick, just saw a new option I never heard of, how often do you run into rear shoulder seat belts on a 70 chevelle / I have owned 4- 70’s never seen that before !

@@raymondboczek When I picked it up for my brother, it had a blown up 327 and a M21. The current owner has called the owner previous to my brother. He thought it was a 396 car! When I picked up, the guy said, "somebody put 454 signs on it but, it was only a 396 so, I put the "right" signs on". I saw the tach and just knew it had to be an LS6 car. My boss at the time told me it was just a 375 hp 396 car so, it was junk. A friend and coworker, Lawrence Elke (RIP, Lawrence), Told me where to look for the build sheet. Found it behind the left rear interior trim panel. LS6, M22 it said! We've talked to few of the old hot rodders from the Naselle area and when the LS6 car is mentioned they all say, "There's never been an LS6 car in Naselle". Little did they know. Only a little ways from this car, my second cousin had a red w/ black stripes and interior LS5 car. Another friend bought it down in Portland and found a bunch of old registrations over the visor. Some were from my second cousin! That car got sold several times and a drug dealer in California was having it restored when he got busted. Car ended up in Washougal,WA. and got on the cover of Super Chevy magazine.

@@raymondboczek Sorry it took so long to get back to you. I contacted the owner and he couldn't find any witness marks from tape anywhere but, it was a complete document. No plate. My brother was at least the 3rd owner. Only the hood as far as I can remember.

A little update. The owner got a letter today from C-N-C historic Document Services stating this car was sold by Sunset motors in The Dalles, Oregon. Official build date Was 1/21/1970.

great wow nice story you tell someone that cares.

California is loaded with old cars with no rust

wow...no one cares.

@@pissoff234 You care ! After all your the one that replied!

He just got it back from being dipped.

Tell us the trailer hitch thing it doesn’t show on a phone

Who cares there's one at every car show.

As far as I know , LS7 was a Crate Engine .

You mean useless knowledge.

@@pissoff234 What's the matter? Your Escort won't start?

Not in my experience. Highway cruiser for a older gentleman.

That's what I saw too.

One is YV, one is CV, and the other 3 are VV.

@patrickglennnicholsmusclec1674 So then, the date coding of the glass 'should' fall within the 6 week window prior to build date, correct? In this case, I'd guess the CV would be stock that had somehow managed to lay around for a few months(@supplier?) before being installed.

I'm 68,in high School in San Francisco my auto shop class went to the Fremont plant in April 1970 for six hours we walked the whole plant watching Chevelle's being built and got to ride in a green one out of the plant to the parking lot down the street with a Vietnam vet driving!

@@dogsense3773 wow how awesome that would have been! I live not to far from there in Modesto, Ca. I know that Fremont plant switched to making Toyota truck frames for awhile. Not sure if the plant is still in any operation today.

@@danb2122 my 1997 Toyota Tacoma was make in the Fremont plant, Tesla is there now

Chevelle production in California transitioned from the Fremont plant to the Van Nuys plant for the 1970 model year. So, no Fremont Chevelles in 1970, which is mostly what this channel features.

Definitely not. All real LS6 will always be LS6. Over 90% in existence aren’t retaining their original engine and transmission.

Exactly. You might as well have a clone.

Not worth what its going to cost to make it mint.

@@pissoff234 and cry like a little ..... on his videos?

They were never red. Always white

The SS was white but the 454 call-out was red IIRC.

@@patrickglennnicholsmusclec1674 I guess I should've been more specific when asking my question. At 4:45 in the video, the emblem on the right fender clearly shows the 454 call out and the numbers are red in the center. That's what I was asking about. Sorry for any confusion.

@@MikeBrown-ii3pt Yes, The 454 all had red in the emblems and yes all SS had white. Great question...
