They literally just took all the guess work out of it lol.... These guys are super cool and game changers.... I'm mesmerizing on how they explain things and somehow I end up understanding things I had no clue about LoL..
That is a piece of art. I am definitely going to steal some of those ideas when I build the frame for my 63. The extended shock mounts is genius, I never seen anyone else do that before.
I will say that a impressive setup and what's more impressive is he did the work himself. I can tell you it's not as easy as one may think. I am currently building my 64 ss in the garage . All I can say to anyone doing the same is have patience and don't count the money lol.
I've built a few impalas, but I've always built them to GM spec because I'm honestly too scared to build something custom. My respects and thanks for sharing--really enjoy the videos
Hey Johnny, your grandpa always told me if you don't take risks you will never know. Very detailed and very patient. Proud of you. Thank you as well Lonestar for sharing. Stay humble Gentlemen
Digging the channel bro got notifications turned on some very useful information here I'm going a frame off resto mod now 64 SS impala this makes me want to do more lol keep up the good work
Man you guys are awesome fellas!!! Thanks for the great info!!! It is a lot of work you did an awesome job!!! I agree on lots you have to say. I wish I had all the time to build everything myself too. I was just at a shop yesterday and they charge a lot for a partial wrap but it’s a headache as well. Those rear shocks mounts you welded in the rear did you buy those or make them yourself??? Does that help the back have a more significant cleaner ride in the rear???
Ben thanks for watching. Time and money. You never have both at the same time. The shock mounts where made here at my house. Shocks do help. But it wont ride like a caddy. But it does help. And they also look good in chrome. Stay tuned
Great looking machine! How did you get the engine and transmission? Did you take it out of a car or get it all separate or a kit? I'm going to do something like this but I am worried about the computers and all that. My plan is to buy a wrecked car in the rear end and take everything out and put it in my 63. Moving the motor mounts might be above my pay grade. You do great work for sure. I would like to maybe see a video of where you do all your work. What kinds of tools you use that could be needed for something like this that are special and ones you don't really need, or the welders you use.
I know it's been a min,but what size exhaust did he end up going with? I'm doing a 6.2 with 6l80 and having a hard time finding a 3" exhaust system for it. awesome work BTW.
Thanks for not being selfish with your time This is Very very helpful So I am building a 61 Impala I already have the ls3 I am planning on using the TCI 6 speed tranny So do I have to cut my tunnel Or will it clear? It was not clear to me in the video it sounded like only if you were going to instal Hydraulics then the tunnel needed to be cut. also Will I be able to use the shifter on the column Or will I have to install a floor shifter.
By tunnel do you mean driveshaft tunnel or floor pan? Driveshaft only if hydraulics. Floor pan cant tell without test fittong. U can buy the lokar universal column shift linkage
@@lonestarlows Well I guess I'm confused on the verbage when the body of the car gets Set on to the Chassis will it clear The transmission or will the body hit the transmission.
Wont really know that until you test fitm alot of factors. Trans mount thickness. Body bushing thickness. Alot of moving parts. Best to test fit before final assembly
Good points. Valuable information here. But also proves how much benefit when test fitting and the trial and error Also shows how extremely high caliber cars can come out of the backyard. No murals of naked skeletons and wizards necessary.
So LT.... Is that the same as the LT1??? I have an LT1 in my 95 Fleetwood and that's the Corvette Camero engine. Is his the same just newer? And what are super swepts?
Ok I figured, let me know if you guys looking for another 64 ss ,comes with 44 inch moonroof, all paint supplies, most trim, extra doors, and wrapped frame. Lol
The most complete modified x frame analysis on the internet. 5 stars fellas.
That was the goal! Thanks!

Its very nice and like i said im glad to have it here. I can sit and drink beer and just stare at it for hours.
😂😂😂😂
109 heat index here and no air in the garage is a no go
@@cleo-2212109 aint bad.....

Very nice , learned a lot of pointers , like the extended rear shock mounts , I know you said 12 inches back but how long are they from the frame
Excellent caliber of a build
So nice bro made my day💪💯
Awesome. Thanks for watching. Roof is painted. Video tonight
Clean ass setup and frame 👌🏼

Insane amount of work I'm building my first lowrider now a 83 couple Deville, I wish I had this guys skills how do you learn all this stuff?
Alot.of trial and error and research

Coming out nice bro im doing one to dont think its gone be on this level though bro lol
Thanks for the props. And stay tuned
Fuckin gorgeous yo keep up the good work....I'm really impressed ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ ten star build
Hard work I see…. Good stuff.
So what headers did you use? I’m going with and LS3 with the 6L80 so similar.
I'm not sure. He has a channel as well. Its called red rocket 64
I know it's been a min,but what size exhaust did he end up going with? I'm doing a 6.2 with 6l80 and having a hard time finding a 3" exhaust system for it. awesome work BTW.
I believe 2.5 inch
Did he have to cut the front section of the driveshaft (trans to carrier)?

@@lonestarlows ok. Another question Do you know if with the 6 speed Can the shifter be on the column.
@@dannyfelix6440 if its a 6 speed automatic. I dont see why not? U dont shift after putting it in drive..
Good points. Valuable information here. But also proves how much benefit when test fitting and the trial and error
Also shows how extremely high caliber cars can come out of the backyard. No murals of naked skeletons and wizards necessary.
No mural of the car on the trunk?
lonestar lows with a mural of it on it. Maybe.
This is so Dope!! Any reason you wouldn’t upgrade to disc brakes?
He eventually did. But I dont considered rear disc exactly an upgrade.
@@lonestarlows job well done!!!!!
What’s good bro!! What headers did you use?
So LT.... Is that the same as the LT1??? I have an LT1 in my 95 Fleetwood and that's the Corvette Camero engine. Is his the same just newer? And what are super swepts?
It's a different LT..
@@lonestarlows okay 👌 and what's a super swept on the wheels?
The spinners are referred to as super swept 3 prong
Yo what type of header are those
How long is the rear shock mount
Would you have to notch the frame with rear 8" cylinders and coilunders on a X-frame?
Would depend on height of coil
@@lonestarlows what about with a 1 or 2 ton precut? And a 6" or 8" cylinder?
How tall the battery stand on frame
4l80 or 6l80 which is better
What Caind of shocks u run on back I'd like to put some on my 64 thanks
Black magic sells them. Probably hoppos too.
@@lonestarlows thanks for the info 👍
Nice
What kind of ball joints are those
Napa g body ball joints
Ok I figured, let me know if you guys looking for another 64 ss ,comes with 44 inch moonroof, all paint supplies, most trim, extra doors, and wrapped frame. Lol
