I would love the uncut version of this! I could listen and watch Foose draw cars for hours.

@Hagerty 4 года назад

Thanks for the feedback! We've been thinking about releasing uncut versions of these. Just watch Chip draw in real time! We shall see!

@singlesidebrina7635 4 года назад

Please release the uncut videos. The perfect gear head ASMR.....

@jeebra7491 4 года назад

AGREED

@anywaythewindblows5004 3 года назад

i did it . it fits. Now I know it was the right move. The king of design Chip Foose said its right ! Wish I still had it. Years gone.

@classicroger 4 года назад

40 years... I've thought about this exactly for over 40 years! Thank you!

@DavidStirm 4 года назад

So the car was basically newish and you thought about doing this. Ok

@enriquearanda5845 2 года назад

I remember seeing this at a car show in Pomona CA, sometime in the mid 90s. My dad pointed it out to me and we talked to the owner, a 72 with a 71 front end

@dogsense3773 4 года назад

In 1971,my auto shop class went to Fremont calif GM assembly plant we watched chevelle's being built for 6 hours, we saw about 50 chevelle's drive out of the warehouse into the yard, there where hundreds in every color, a Vietnam vet 82nd airborne on his shirt let me sit in a red one with black vinyl top

@davecampbell7326 4 года назад

I have a ‘72 rear bumper on my ‘70 Chevelle. It looks like what GM should have done from the beginning.

@majorwilkesjr.5827 3 года назад

That is EXACTLY what I've been wanting to do for the last 5 years . I wish I could see it

@richardike2342 3 года назад

Don't you just hate when that happens. And they are still doing this in the auto industry. The new Land Rover Defender has a front and rear that do not match.

@christopherrichardson5352 10 месяцев назад

Exactly right. It kind of baffles me that they put the single rear taillight bumper on the 1970 when it had the double front headlight front bumper. I think it would have been obvious to have dual light front and rear bumpers on the 1970 to give it a much more homogeneous look. In any case I still have to put the 1970 as my favorite year for the Chevelle especially those 4,475 units which came with the mighty LS6 454 engine pumping out 450 HP.

@charlesdavis9755 4 года назад

A car guy in my home town had the front end damaged on his '71 years ago. He also liked the front of a '70. Long story short he has had a '71 Chevelle with a '70 front end for years and the car is awesome.

@BruceLee-xn3nn 3 года назад

Im doing same to my 71, they just go together better

@MrIgor1955 4 года назад

I always thought the '70 Chevelle was the best musclecar and best looking musclecar ever built.

@65elcamino283 4 года назад

i've felt this exact same way since i was a kid. My first love is a '65 el camino. My second is a '70 chevelle with exactly what Chip did with the rear bumper. I have magazine clippings from hot rod and car craft from 20 plus years ago with my dream of doing this. nice drawing, Chip. Met you a few times over the years on monday/setup day at sema in central hall. you are really a genuine and nice guy.

@JR-The_Godfather_of_Horsepower Год назад

Thats exactly what im doing with mine. Best of both worlds!

@Califormula 4 года назад

My Cuzn' has been telling me to do that to mine for YEARS! One of my boys has actually done it. . .It definitely works direct bolt on!!

@brucekimpton4725 4 года назад

Totally agree the same could be done with the 67impala front and 68 impala rear

@lealssikes3465 4 года назад

My dream come true I've always said that the 72 back bumper goes on theb70 freaking awesome

@70chevelless 4 года назад

I have a 1970 chevelle and always loved the taillights on the 71/72

@dinomorell5163 3 года назад

The round break lights are my thing! Always loved that feature very much on the 2 models.

@WireWeHere 4 года назад

While at a family wedding the groom was showing the 63 Impala convertible survivor he found. He told a story of a wrong turn leading to a guy at the end of a road on a lake with a ton of 60's GM potential projects hidden from view. "Did you happen to see a 68 Firebird in there?" "Yeah I did. That is if a 68 has the wide grill with the full size door windows, so no no drafts? It doesn't have a motor or trans.... and no rust, the body's perfect. See the guy camped out at the punch bowl? He's the guy." Got lucky and had the 68 Firebird home the next afternoon. My favourite of the many good looking GM vehicles of the late 60's.

@scotchbudmeister9018 4 года назад

I think '70 was the best year for all the GM A-bodies. Good eye. Thanks for demonstrating this improvement with awesome pen/marker and paper skills!

@robbobcat7286 4 года назад

70 monte carlo lover here

@richardmalone4721 4 года назад

Lol, as a young boy, I thought the same thing! ‘70 front, ‘71/‘72 rear with the El-Camino front bumper! Oh, Hi Chip! Other ideas: functioning Cowl Induction on a ‘70 Camaro SS, then a ‘70 300 Deluxe Chevelle COPO, domed hood, dual snorkel, metal framed vent window door channels off the Skylark, rubber flooring, bench seat 4 Speed, (ok, 6 Sp;) body colored steel wheels, Polyglass tires with the dog dish caps, chambered exhaust, white 454 scripts above the front markers, 300 Deluxe emblems, front & rear bumper guards. Code 63 Desert Sand, no stripes! Ty for all the work. That look you and your father shared is the look my father and I shared. He rode me hard to learn for reasons I couldn’t understand until he was gone, then it all became clear. That Love of a father shines in the lucky Son hopefully sooner than later! 👍🏻

@TnTravelers33 4 года назад

Lots of people have done this they pop up on Instagram chevelle pages all the time you can also convert a 71/72 to a 70 just by changing the front fenders and front clip and the rear bumper everything bolts right up

@AshleyTogepi 3 года назад

I've been saying this for years! 71 tail lights, 70 headlights! Thank you!

@Sherman62 4 года назад

Great mod. Did this myself back when these cars were dirt cheap. Also cut the reverse lights out and put red centers in their place.

@bruceschneider4928 4 года назад

Chip, I have to agree with you about that era of GM cars. They really do look good. Classic, beautiful.

@mrhello4288 4 года назад

He drawings are pure art. I could watch him for hours. One day I’ll have a car and some art work from foose.

@jeffhayes4845 4 года назад

Chip, Awesome! I have always wondered what you would do to a 78-81 Chevrolet Malibu 2 door... I would love to see what it would look like after you "take the ugly out".

@surveyordave 3 года назад

unbelievable artistic skills.....you have to be a natural at this...it just can't be taught.

@stevecolemanHalifax 4 года назад

You’re absolutely right! How did I never see this? Always my fav Chevelles

@diy7594 4 года назад

Chip you nailed it!!That is exactly how the 70 chevelle should be.And I love old school aluminum slots and the wheels you put on your drawing very similar to the old slots.Your a legend love your work and its awesome what you and your team do for people!!!!!

@PrettyChrome 4 года назад

Yes! I love ya chip, ive wanted to swap those bumpers since i was a kid!

@doublel7337 4 года назад

I am partial to the 1969 Chevelle SS 396 because I owned one. I have driven a 1970 Chevelle SS 454 with the LS6, 4 speed. It was awesome, and just a beast. I always wanted a 1959 Impala with a 1960 Impala front clip. Like the teardrop taillights on the 59, but the front end on the 1960 Impala is really sweet.

@fredericrike5974 4 года назад

Chip, you need to hang that somewhere like the lobby, if you can. Somebody will agree with you, I'm sure. Personally, the single headlight front end is my no.1 on this chassis. Dead right about the bumper, and it does look OEM ! A single large tailight would have been the ticket for the later cars, too. PS; Hagerty, please get Chip to walk through all the tasty memorabilia in his office- I'm sure most have some of the great stories we all talk about in them.Thanks for giving Chip "a clean sheet of paper" to work with.

@curtisbrechter5620 3 года назад

I'm so glad that we get to see him draw. Gives me ideas.

@Will_my65gmc 4 года назад

Chip, I agree with you and think everything you said is spot on! Great job, Love your work and your style!

Once again world class automotive artwork delivered with pure class...

@WireWeHere 4 года назад

My son stopped by last night to show a picture of his friend's newest project, a 70 Chevelle in paint strip phase. Coincidentally speaking this feels like deja view.

@stanleyjokinsky8514 4 года назад

I'm a big Foose fan. And I've always have said that to my dad he likes the 72 and I love the 70. But always told him that the rear bumper didn't go with it. Chip thanks for proving my point!!

@donnieparks4850 4 года назад

You are fucking idiot. The 70 Chevelle is perfect. Just cuz you smoke meth don’t mean you have talent. Dumbass.

@jump4j 4 года назад

your beating an old drum Chip we've all known that forever. your dad probably told you that one when you were little. By the way the quick drawing you did of a 68 Chevelle on a t shirt for me in Toronto was amazing. it was for my brother-in-laws birthday. he still has and wears it. And still has his 68. I don't know what I like more your art work or the end product. I really like your work and it was nice seeing your dad with you on overhauling. my girlfriends (now wife) father taught me the trade when I was 19. sorry to hear of your fathers passing . He must have been an exceptional body man and a great inspiration for you.

@majorwilkesjr.5827 3 года назад

That is EXACTLY what I've been wanting to do . All in due time .

@ronaldlapointe1219 4 года назад

Dear Chip, always with great pleasure to watch your videos, I like your vision of this time and in particular at GM, but the most important for me is that you do better with what already exists, that is really important ... leave your mark ... Bravo!

@privateprivate1865 2 года назад

Not only do i adore chips drawing, but equally enjoy listening to his thoughts and insight on classic automobile design stories. No fluff like on reality tv,, Just plain ol car geek stuff. I love talking about switching around other body parts from different vehicles. I want to put a 59 Buick Invicta nose on a 60 elcamino.

@tomster70 4 года назад

I have been wanting to do some very similar changes to my 70 Malibu convertible since I purchased it in 1989! I also wanted the Monte Carlo/El Camino front bumper as it had round signal lights. Never understood the use of rectangular signal lights up front! And I think the car looks fantastic with the body color mirrors over the 60's looking chrome units. Most people always said I'd be hacking the 70 up changing those items! Now the man himself, Chip Foose puts it to paper! Gotta love it!

@tonywalker2334 2 года назад

Wanna sell ur 70 convertible??? I’m looking for one.

@urockitony2 4 года назад

Some really great insights and information in this video, from why you use a ballpoint pen (I've always wondered that), to how individual styling decisions get made and affect overall design outcomes. Thanks for this series, and keep 'em coming! Stay safe...

@takefivepaullucido 2 года назад

Really beautifully rendered, Mr. Foose! Love the overall composition and the car.

@davidwulf288 4 года назад

Another awesome idea Chip. Thanks!!

@punkinsgarageandpaint8299 4 года назад

I'd love to have a real sketch from one of these episodes. Signed by Mr. CHIP FOOSE! I'd frame and hang in my living room. I could sit and watch you draw all day!

@officialgearhead6736 3 года назад

I thought I was the only one. AWESOME combination

@RutroAstro 4 года назад

Chip, as a Chevelle owner and enthusiast, thanks for sharing, yes they do look more consistent, love the front light addition. The rear bumper should bolt right up and other than the side markers I think this is a winner. You will probably have someone see your vision and build it. Looking forward to the real deal.

@1970chevy07 4 года назад

I can't believe you did it thanks man

@johnkropp3793 4 года назад

Fantastic, perfect combo

@graycav56 4 года назад

Wow. I’ve been a Chevelle owner and fan forever and never considered this before. You nailed it! The 70 front meshes with the 71/72 rear a lot better.

@stephenmoxley3004 4 года назад

This is a great video series. Not only Foose, but the sound track is really cool too. Keep it up.

@Hagerty 4 года назад

Glad you enjoy it!

@paullemay3218 4 года назад

Awesome idea. Thank you for sharing. 🇨🇦😎

@bobyoung1698 4 года назад

My brother-in-law owned a 1972 Chevelle. In fact, he owned it twice. I always liked the double headlight look of the '70 more and I really like the lights you dropped into the front bumper. Swapping in the '72 bumper seems to be a natural - too bad Chevrolet didn't think it out a bit. BTW, only my granddaughters have more markers than you.😉

@Panelman-wx8fo 4 года назад

True artistic talent. Very impressive design. I’ve always loved the GM muscle car body lines and you improved the stance and overall look. I tip my hat to you kind sir. Well done.

@WeekendPursuitOutdoors 4 года назад

Thats my dream car right there. 70 front and a 72 rear. Black with white racing stripes. Drop in a streetable 632 BBC......HEAVEN!

@Patrickrivasticksdrums 3 года назад

I've always liked the front of a 71.

@leroyswoodentattoos1731 4 года назад

Amazing!!!! My absolute dream car! The Rock drove one in the movie “Faster” and i have been in love ever since!

@robertphillips3078 4 года назад

Chip Foose is an absolute Gem. Not only can he tweak cars of all different breeds, most importantly he is a real lovely bloke. Kind & generous. Would love 2 have thr spare cha-ching $$ 2 do a couple of cars 4 me. ❤ his 👀👀 at his art work..👍👌

@charliehill5853 4 года назад

I’ve built multiple models just like this glad someone else thinks the same way!!

@moto4641 4 года назад

Music, music, music! Yes, I know this is about the cars, and chip is great, but we all expect that. the music though, is really nice and pleasing, need a compilation of the tuns from this series!

@majorwilkesjr.5827 3 года назад

If and when this has been built , I really want to see this .

@tjmoneybags 4 года назад

Always thought the exact same thing. Beautiful.

@impalaman9707 2 года назад

My first thought is: Gotta have those classic 71-72 "round" tail lights! Those are classic trademark Chevrolet!

@samspace81 4 года назад

@acts2211 4 года назад

@snr2707 4 года назад

So Chip...I have a 72. Let’s get after that front end redesign! I need this thing to be Fooseanated 😂

@Tinstar2 4 года назад

I have a 1971 Chevelle. Always liked the front end of the 1970 but preferred the rear end of the 1971. I have thought about changing my front end to the one like the 1970. I have seen this done and it looks great!

@EyeShotFirst 4 года назад

When I was a kid, I was saying the same thing. The 71 got the bumper the 70 should've had.

@dankostic6708 Год назад

i love the look of this car, its what ive always wanted the chevelle to look like but it needs the 71 front turn signals too!

@fpvclub7256 4 года назад

I agree.. I love this car as well.. fantastic!.

@franklinmartina9188 4 года назад

Chip you are the best , nothing can compere with you . you the only one God bless you . peace from curacao Nederland's Antillean

@cooleyhy 4 года назад

Thanks, Chip, for seeing the styling mismatch that a lot of us have observed for a long time as well! I had a '70 Chevelle about 20 years ago (when you could still find running & driving examples for under $5K!), and I remember wanting to put the '71 rear bumper on it. For one thing, it's just a better looking style than the '70, and also you could argue that it does mirror the dual headlight design that is in the front. Chip: If you read this, please "correct" another of GM's muscle era styling mistakes and find a '65 LeMans /GTO and section about 8" off the rear quarters to give it the proportions of a ' 65 Chevelle. '64-'67 BOP A bodies all looked like they were just too long in the deck area on what were otherwise good looking cars. if not Chip, someone out there, please do this!

@VTX1800MC 4 года назад

Good one, Thanks!

@randallfrank5682 4 года назад

Very nice Chip! You are correct.

@stiki108 4 года назад

In the film 'Faster' the '70 Chevelle had a '71 rear bumper. Fits perfectly!

@tcz7742 Год назад

I have a 1970 El Camino. I think that is also the best year for the El Camino. They got both the front end and back end right on the El Camino.

Perfect capture Chip! I’m anxiously awaiting for you to produce a rendering of a ‘68 that fixes the few things that GM did wrong... if you’d like, you can use mine as a template!!
