Don’t know what it is about your driving segments, but they’re like a fireplace…..just enjoyable to watch. Two things I noticed on this video…
1) That Tesla wanted some.
2) That wagon got some.
Neat behind the scenes visit to coilover shop. Always happy to see stuff made in the USA!
Hi Lucky. I’ve watched a handful of your videos and I love the content. You’re a knowledgeable guy with a good mix of wrenching and satire.
If I have one comment it’s that you have a lot of ‘dead air’ in your videos. I find myself fast forwarding through them to see the parts installed and hear the next bit of useful talking.
Thanks for what you do.

That car has the original 2 piece front brake rotors!!!
Good job Lucky and as always, thanks for sharing

Cool, thanks
I legit fell asleep listening to the shop truck on the highway lol😅... best few minutes of my life on youtube
This is what I need to do with our 67 Chevelle. I used 1250lbs front 350lb rear conventional springs from Speedway Motors
The problem was I had to use 5 1/2 diameter front springs to achieve the rate I wanted but they rub inside the pocket and it’s hard to find shocks that control that stiff of a spring.
This is definitely the way to go! Thank you!
Another great classic Lucky videos
I thought for sure you were gonna do a burnout when you left Aldan...Sure dodged a bullet there! Thanks for the vid, Lucky! ✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦
Great looking Chevelle! Love the orange 🍊
Love your work 🎉
Thank you! 😊
Thanks for the update, Lucky.
One day, the wife and I will have these on our 72 chevelle. Great video and work, brother.
Right on!
I have the same ones for my 72 Chevelle.
@cuzz63 are you happy with the brand. I have seen more qa1 stuff. I'm not sure if you pay more for qa1 because of the name or the product.
@@rescuedandrestoredgarage yes I am but in truth I havent had it long and the car isnt a daily driver. Weekend cruiser and shows.
@cuzz63 The wife and I have been working on the chevelle Making videos for our UA-cam channel in Dawson Creek bc Canada in February and March right now because we want to work on the car so badly, lol 😆
LUCKY ,great video.....no moss gathers on a Rollin Stone🎶
Another good one. Thanks Lucky ✌
Thanks for watching!!🏁🏁🏁
VROOOM!
Rick’s car sounds like he and DD Speed shop learned how to put starters in at the same school
Enjoyed the dynamic camera angles while you worked. Sticks was on a break I see. Should of had him helping with the inventory up top?
Now take the Chevelle to Willow Springs to test 'em out!
I ended up installing UMI tubular A arms and Aldan coilovers.
Miss cruising through signal hill 🤙
5:03 High pitch whistle, lets you know the air-pump belt might still be riding on-top of the pulley. Fun-time power. 🏁👍
Another cool video.
Ya make it look so easy!
What up with the burn out lucky Great video going to put coil overs on my 69 el Camino 🤣👍
Thanks 👍
When these conversations are done I would have liked to have seen a side shot of the cars ride height before and after…
I thought you were going to sign the driveway @12:57. Whoa, good thing you didn't, you must be psychic to know that cop was coming.
Buddy needed a rear sway bar upgrade while you had it open !
So the HOV lane is for High Output V8 vehicles. I didn't know that 😁.
👍👍
I was hoping you'd clean up the engine compartment wiring before a fire occurs 😁
Need a set of centerline centerset tens and skinny's for the 57
Once done, drive it around for a bit and then re-torque everything, right?
Yes!!!
Hi Scott how are you doing, nice to meet you here 😊
This is on my list of "to do", soon, did you add anti-seize to the coil over collars?
Alden does it when they build the shock
When you were at Aldan American I see they have shock parts and assemble them but do they have equipment to machine parts in house?
Also, while you were at it the undercarriage should of been cleaned and painted with bedliner coating.... I hate putting new parts with everything else looking nasty.
Finigan and Friberger would not like you You were not on the side of the freeway puting off a door, ducktaping holes in the floor, out of gas, over heated, or such
Why were all those cars standing still on the freeway?? In the first few minutes of the video.
No shock tower brace on the rear coil over set up ?
Nope
Did I miss it. What spring rate did you use on front and rear?
How to choose? 🤔
Aldan America
Speedtech performance
UMI Performance
QA1
And I'm sure I'm missing a few, lol
Is there a coilover that lets you keep the original exhaust with the resonators in the rear ? 69 Chevelle ?
Unrelated to car repair- whats the deal with the lift anchors coming out of the concrete so far? are they extra long or barely embedded?
Got them from a local store and they’re different lengths. 😳
I guess Lucky doesn't know how to use a turn signal.
I was thinking the same thing.
Sure I do.
@@luckysgarageshow is it that you choose to not?
Lucky, any update on the Butternutz wagon?
Yes stay tuned!!! Big thinks coming
🐚💣🔥
Is it a drastic improvement in ride?
Dumb question do the rear coilovers eliminate the old coil springs
Yep
Luckky, would you rather fabricate, upgrade, and work on cars, or drive them?
All the above!
Lucky does you truck have a Turbo?

What state are you in?
CA
I am in Pasadena. I have a 65 SS. I just got the carborator back from being rebuilt by Paul in Monrovia. I would like to get some suspension work done and few other things. I couldn’t find your shop online. Only your UA-cam stuff.
Aren't you afraid some cop is going to see this?
and learn how to fix his car?
Hi Jeffrey how are you doing, nice to meet you here 😊
Thank goodness I was watching Joe Kenda at the same time. And I don’t really like Joe Kenda.
Great seeing you at Aldan 🫱🏼🫲🏽
Personally I blame 👉🏻🐿️
