Older video, BEAUTIFUL 62 Belair 409, this is the real deal, Top shelf restoration, you don't see too many like this BEAUTY, THANKS.
Thanks for checking it out!!
SCOTTIE, I seen yesterday where Mr Garrett passed away, I'm sorry to hear that, he was a very nice gentleman and had such a collection of CLASSICS, thanks for all you do my friend.
Beautiful car Floyd is great...
kept me droolin , super nice supersport ..
My God. That is a great car.
I'm a Mopar guy but the 61-62 Chevy and Pontiac bubble tops were beautiful cars. Especially the Pontiacs with the 8 lug aluminum wheels and whitewalls. In fact a bubble top 62 Pontiac Catalina 421 Super Duty is my favorite Pontiac ever made and the 62 Impala SS Z-11 is one of my favorite Chevy's...as well as the 62 Bel Air 409/409 bubble top being one of my favorite Chevy's. Even though I'm a Mopar guy I've always thought GM built the coolest full size rides in the 60's...particulary the Chevy's and Pontiac's. Mopar concentrated more on performance in their midsize cars and pony cars than their full size models. But those big Plymouth Fury and Dodge Polara cop cars with the 440 Police Interceptor were really fast. Tried out running them a time or two lol
lol...Thanks for checking this 62 out here!!
cool car thanks for the vid
I'm almost 54 and my dad had the 1957, 1961 Bel Air and he loved them cars. Chevrolet put out some awesome cars back in the 1960's. Your video was great. Thanks for showing it cause I'm doing an AMT model kit of the 1962 Bel Air and I gotta say the colors of that engine compartment is precisely how they're telling the modelers how to do it. Thanks again.
I had a perfect body I bought, it didn't have a engine or transmission. So I put a L88 in it with a rock crusher four speed, added a 488 positive traction. Mine was rust free and never wrecked. I sold it in 1975. Mine was black with red interior. She would run.
Sounds like a cool car!!
That really is an awesome place. Who wouldn't want an original, numbers matching 409. That restoration is top notch to say the least...Great looking car!
Floyd, this is absolutely amazing. I am a lifelong Chevy 409 fan, and this is an absolute jewel. Incredible! I wouldn't sell this for anything. My Lord!
This is my favorite car you have shot Scottie. Its a real time machine! And i love how much detail has gone into it to keep it that way. Original cars are becoming rare, and sadly now and again, one or two become extinct.
Completely awesome ..... mind blowing detail .......... assembly line condition !!!!!!!!

I love my 62 409, such a great vehicle.
Scottie, I did not recognize you until you spoke. I love that bubble top roof style on all the GM cars of those years. So easy to just shred those little tires with all that horsepower even if it was measured at the flywheel.
lol..I'm a fan of them to!

@grizzlyglock1 lol..I agree...as nice of a car as you will find...thanks for cking it out!!

I think that is the prettiest year and body Chevrolet ever built.
Cool....Thanks for checking this one out here!!
Not sure...I think it sold a Barrett Jackson Scottsdale...not sure how much
Yea that was one of my fav cars that you filmed so I already knew whos that was rii away but I also saw the chevelle that you filmed he also auction off a zl1 engine I missed the rest

Very cool scottie very cool......
bossco09 lol..right on...getting into the archives?
ScottieDTV Yeah scottie,always on the look out for more classic old school rides......old school is cool school...:):):)
bossco09 Right on Brother...I never can figure out why people ask me shoot something and when I tell them I have..check the archives...there like I want a new video??..lol..if you haven't seen it...isn't it new to you..lol...this is where the cool cars are at...the archives!!!
Man I woulda never sold this I remember watching this vid a while ago and its funny I was watching barrett jackson auction today and instantly recognized tht was floyds car this 1 sold for 187, 000
I always thought '62 was the best year of the '59-'64 classic Chevys, especially the Bel Air sport coupe. The '61 was still a little too busy and the '63, while handsome, just had no-where to go after the '62 got it so right. Never understood why so many people favor the bland '64.
I'm a fan of the 62 to!
I always liked the 62 Bel Air bubbletop 409/409-4 speed and the 66 Biscayne 2 door post 427/425-4 speed the best of all the full size Chevy's. I like how Chevy made their hottest big blocks available even in the low trim level Biscayne's and Bel Air's...which were both lighter than the more upscale Impala SS and Caprice. Same way Ford made their 427/410hp and 427/425hp engines available in their lowly 300 series, Custom, and Custom 500 trim levels which were all lighter than a more upscale Galaxie or LTD. Always really liked the 60s full size performance cars from both Chevrolet and Ford...even though I'm a Mopar guy
my dad had two 62's 1 red&white 409 STOLEN in 1970 st.ann mo. NEVER recovered, the other 62 blue STOLEN in 1968 from McDonnell Douglas lot, recovered shell of the car in wooded area of Vail st. Columbia bottoms mo.
wow...That's some bad luck!!...or is it????...lol
The 409 Bel Air hardtop was a very rare car...does this one have the special-order lightweight body panels? Chevy kept this body style from 1961 just for the purpose of racing, even though GM's policy was to the contrary!
Lightweight did not come on a production car. That was rare over the counterparts for racers only for the most part. Was an assembly line option for the 63 . They were used for the Z11 cars.
lol....keep your day job Brother!
That bubble top is beautiful
For sure!!
