Can We Make This '70 Chevelle a Drag Car? | Iron Resurrection FULL EPISODE | MotorTrend 

What would you do to this Chevelle?

Cool ,Anythings possible with deep pockets and a fully loaded fab shop

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

That 55 turned out so kool. Joe and the guys are killing it, can’t wait for the Chevelle to be finished.

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

How many other people are here because they saw Amanda ?

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.

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

Joe's actor would be Tim Mcgraw.

we Miss u guys.......come back.....

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

Unbelievable skills and vision!!

🧓 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

Perfect car for this project

Bob's big boy statue. Not many people know what that represents.

Love the new season. Love all the custom work

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!!

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

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.

Approved!!!

How is it possible that this Bama dude always seems to have the car they need? F O H !!!

Love this show

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

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.

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😑

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 🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸

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

No, don't cut the top.

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❤

Killed a nice car

Aren't we supposed to tig weld rollcages?

Ad ad ad ad ad

Just hook a chain between the shitbox cheby and a mopar and drag the clunker !!!

When is the part 2 coming?

3 k wow it’s worth $4k at least……😮

There is nothing on that car that would make me believe "SS big block ".

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

Yo los veía por TV cable en Argentina creo que por Discovery Channel, pero parece que cancelaron el programa hace 2 años

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!!!

Needs less talking and more time lapses

One thing to cut up a real SS but now to chop the top where is part 2 of this video

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.

Chop it and drop it👍

Not KOOL , Now that Kool..

Hang on...let me grab my bubbke gum.

Not going to happen again that someone will give away a 70 ss.

71 SS 454 is the desirable…….

Thought I was watching a 70 chevelle episode, and I get a 55 bel air episode, disappointment...

Wow.. i bought one for 125 bucks

Eb n flow

There are two big reasons why people watch this show and I bet ya know what they are 😉

Where's the rest of the 70 Chevelle story?

of course you can just need an open wallet

Airbrushed chrome? OK 😂

Cut the top .. lol .. thats f'd up

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

👍🇺🇸👍

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.

Me

Hey hey fucknnn hey LOL it's ya goofy m8te from Australia 😆 love ya show [ HOLDEN COMMODORE VE UTE HSV Maloo R8 E series LS3 turbo start up accelerate sound ] - mate type that in on utube watch n enjoy...it only goes for 1.56 sec but wait till you see it..on a big screen..[ let me know what you think about the car in a reply ] ya goofy m8te from Australia

Oof. Mandi f’d her lips up. I don’t understand why people can’t just age gracefully

Not all cars look good with chop tops

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...

They stole that car

Fernando Ayres Sobral

This was my first car 🚗, it was amazing, I want another one. God please help get another. 🙏

Only reason you put that female in the thumbnail is to generate views. Click bait

Don’t cut the top!!!

I have 4 70 chevelles and can't give them away

Keep it original. Please dont chop it.

PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH BARE METAL

Bring back Shorty. He is no good on his own show.

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!!!

Stay inur lane

Another one ruined

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.

Oh wow, never seen it done. Hurry up before you lose the shop, foh

Didn’t he get that car from Joe in the first place
