My dad worked hard had a stroke on the job at 56 and had to sell his car, 5 years later on october 28 of this year he passed, pete's 1971 nova, hes the orange one, we built it 3 times over and the last we did every nut bolt and washer, window and piece of trim down to bare metal and put her all back together right. If i ever get the chance it will be bought back, Good luck on your dreams and don't kill yourself working to hard in the mean time, may God bless.
What a beautiful car and great choice of colour! Sounds fantastic. Just shows you don't need to mod the body of a classic, the right wheels, ride height and choice of colour can make a car without heavy body mods!
Beautiful Chevelle...the body style speaks for it self..and I agree my 70 Chevelle keeps me feeling younger everytime I take her out and let her breath...ya gotta have something in your life that makes ya happy.
Dan Myers nah Nor Cal and it doesn’t matter where you’re from in CA - everyone feels that way about Bakersfield. Congrats you’re the only one cheerleading for Bakersfield haha
WOW--I just stumbled onto this vid and immediately recognized ol Butch--He was a customer of mine at Berchtold --Equip.Co--. in Bakersfield-He had a backhoe service--WOW it looks like he's done real good since I saw him back in the 80's--Good looking car and the other ones in his garage are real nice too--If you can ,tell him big Dave from the parts department says hi--
There is just something about a '66 Chevelle. That whole era of the box car that started in the early 60's and continued up into the 80's it was absolutely the best combination of square curves. Much prefer the front end over the '67.
When you said Bakersfield again..... I suddenly recognized Butch, I've hung out on Friday nights at Sonic a couple years ago and he was there with his cars that red '57/56? in the background, it's a beautiful car and his Chevelle well, perfection again. Another great video, well done!
I’ll be 41 in 3 days and since I was like 10 I’ve wanted a 66 chevelle. My dad had a ‘69 396 and I fell in love with chevelles because of it. He also bought an 86 Buick GN new so that was another love of mine and have owned my 87 for 21 years now. Anyway this car is literally my dream build. I’ve talked about dropping an LSA in one since the CTS-V came out with it. Hopefully I’ll see my dream come true one day. This car..imo is the best body to come out of the 60s
I think it's so cool that he built a muscle car with 'taking his grand-kids with him' in mind, & I also think the 'merch plug' is so natural & done at just the right time! Keep up the great work man & thanks.
I was watching and the house looked familiar when I realized its a house that I did all the concrete work at. I remember talking to him about cars and politics real nice guy the house and garage are huge nice to see it finished.
Daaaaaaaaaaamb that is bad ass, and again such a cool owner🔥🔥 I've said it before an I'll keep saying it, your One of the best channels on YT by faaaar 🇬🇧 🍻
Everytime it's said 600hp and up. I always (I know the physics) am seriously impressed, 'cause think about it, it's actually only 5 bolts on each wheels, pulling all that power. 5 bolts. That a side OH BOY that car is all the way gorgeous! It's subtle yet it's not. WHAT a car and the sound man! YES! And instead of growing up. Just, Bro up! Happy new year to everyone!
Another beautiful build👍, It looks like DODGER BLUE ! I love the Chevelle . Very hard to find 😲& reminds me of a 66 Chevy Malibu .The engine sounds great when it opens up .Very powerful 💪.Nice body ,it's totally blocked to perfection☝️! Let's call it a BAKERSFIELD BLUE !Thanks Shawn👍 , another great find💯🏆 !
This build has 3 decades of styling mostly in the 90s. Very unique and you could say hes not copying anyone. Haven't seen brushed aluminum in the interior in a long time.
As always, great video! I always look forward to watching your videos!! One of these days when you have 1 million subscribers, you should gather a bunch of the epic burnout cars featured on your channel and get about 20 of them in a big parking lot and celebrate!!
That "blue" looks a mile deep.....I really like the body not being 'played with'. Great ride.
I'm guessing bright atlantic blue. Same as my old 98 mustang Cobra. Google that color, it's spot on.
@@MrSvtcobraman Bet it was beautiful!
Bud Light Blue
@@shallowssurfer159 LOL! I bet there were a few million guys out there the came to that conclusion!
That garage is the stuff retirement dreams are made of. Work hard, my friends.

@@drew2truth hey Man, May God Bless you.
Why wait to retirement. Just work hard and learn how to work on your own stuff.
What a beautiful car and great choice of colour! Sounds fantastic. Just shows you don't need to mod the body of a classic, the right wheels, ride height and choice of colour can make a car without heavy body mods!
Dudes got some serious cash! Look at that garage!! Nice!
Beautiful Chevelle...the body style speaks for it self..and I agree my 70 Chevelle keeps me feeling younger everytime I take her out and let her breath...ya gotta have something in your life that makes ya happy.
This is such a cool ride and the owner Butch is awesome!
That’s cool.
This seriously just motivated me to finally get started on my 67 Chevelle. This is done so good.
Take your time brother. You will get it done.
Butchy has done well for himself...what a house and garage!!
No matter how nice the house and toys it’s still fucking Bakersfield dude. Fuck that.
They Live - you must be from LA. That attitude...I’d take the SJ valley over living in LA every day and twice on Sunday.

@@theylive2749 what is bout Bakersfield? I'm from Aus but got roots in the nth wst
Funny thing is, it doesn't matter where you're from in CA - everyone else in the country couldn't care less.

Glad you found it! Yeah, Butch has done well for himself and seems to enjoy his life with his wife and toys

its a 57
7:14 the first acceleration and the look on the hosts face makes this whole video so awesome!
I get excited when cars pull and rumble! Great build
This is the most beautiful blue color I've probably ever seen on a vintage car. It's stunning.
Some people dream the dream and some people live the dream. That's a beautiful Chevelle!!

This blue is absolutely stunning and the gray interior is just as nice. The ultimate cool cruiser. The lines on the '66 are great.
Totally agree. And it’s going up for auction at Barrett Jackson this month
Great vid. Awesome Chevelle. Love that the exterior is stock. Really shows that the 66’ Chevelle is one of the most popular muscle cars from the 60’s.
I think it's so cool that he built a muscle car with 'taking his grand-kids with him' in mind, & I also think the 'merch plug' is so natural & done at just the right time! Keep up the great work man & thanks.
Wow! It looks as great as it sounds & it sounds as great as it looks! A comfy ride, too. Total winner here.
Chevelles are sooo beautiful..
This one has got a great look to it
Cool car! Awesome garage!!!
My favorite automobile of all time, had two 66's in my younger days. What an AWESOME ride, congratulations on a fantastic build!!!

My old boss, sweet build Butch!

It’s amazes me after all of these years, cars just haven’t matched that muscle era. That is especially one beautiful car. Well done!
AWESOME BLUE COLOR!!!
Great car and fabulous lawns in that neighbourhood..
That garage is awesome.
Top shelf all the way
I was watching and the house looked familiar when I realized its a house that I did all the concrete work at. I remember talking to him about cars and politics real nice guy the house and garage are huge nice to see it finished.
That’s so cool!! Butch is a class guy with incredible taste in cars and that garage!!
The Ringbrothers went with a supercharger and auto trans in their 66 SS too. Fine machines, thanks for posting.
