- Installing a new brake master cylinder, fuel tank and fuel gauge sending unit on this 1960 Chevrolet Biscayne, then take a little test drive.
This 1960 Chevrolet Biscayne four door sedan with six cylinder 235 cubic inch engine with three manual gears was assembled in general motors plant in europe, Denmark. The Biscayne model was the economy model of Chevrolet passenger cars, and was first sold to a taxi company, but it was too big for small country roads, and was traded in for a smaller car. A young man bought it, but he couldn`t stand the grass green original colour, so he painted it himself "rally red". His frends then called the car the red lightning due to his style of driving. He used the car as his company car with tools and welding equipment in the trunk. The car was until 2001, but always with care, and he kept it for his life.
First timer here. Gotta say, I love this production style. It is the automotive equivalent of "Shut Up And Play", a YT channel for guitarists. Such a pleasant departure from those who can't stop talking, or putting their mug in front of the camera way more than they need to. Great story behind this bottom-of-the-barrel Biscayne. Had no idea Chevrolets were assembled in Denmark, or anywhere in Europe for that matter. Off to see DoC's playlist, if there's more like this, I'm subbing!
In 1974 (March-August) I owned a '60 Chevy BelAir that I "owned" for $40! This car sold for $1990 NEW! I kept the window sticker for YEARS! SADLY, as (owner #2) I was its LAST STOP! In Northern Minnesota, RUST IS "ULTIMATE EQUILIZER"!
In Canada, the Biscayne, was also called the Pontiac Stratochief, which had Chevy motors, and wasn't a wide tracking Catalina, that did have Pontiac motors.
I bought a 60 Biscayne 2 dr in Virginia while stationed there in 1973 for $140.00. 235 powerglide. I drove it back to Ma. using a lot of oil. I pulled the head and replaced rings and rod bearings in the car and drove it a few more years
My first licensed car on the road was a 60 Chevy just like this one only a different color. Nice car to restore.
Your 55 Imperial video popped up this morning. Different style video layout, which i didnt think I'd like, but I judged too soon. Instantly hooked and have watched all your videos now. Your attention to detail or repair process speaks louder than words. Beautiful vehicles, nice shop, and tools!! Keep 'em coming👍
Wings! Right on! I’ve got a 59 Chev and a 59 Buick. Both are wing cars. The Chev is a gull wing and the Buick is a Delta wing. 57 Chevs and 57-58 Chrysler’s had fins. Most people, including car guys either don’t know there is a difference or get them confused.
They were all referred to as fins. Just? If it's horizontal or vertical? Some guy call them wings. Nothing wrong with that. Impala 4 door hardtop I bought in the 80s from the original owner. It's in pretty good shape and I've got 60 Bel-Air that on the rough side. But out of the three they're going to be in a 59 four-door I have that's the one I'm thinking of men do something with pretty soon.
What a great clean rust-free '60 Chevy !
Love that red color.
Great to see folks in Europe like these cars 2. That's one text me back here and my dad used to drive a 60 Bel Air 4 door. Couple of them including an Impala hardtop. Got fifty-nine sedan but sold the old 59 wagon little while back. A lot of projects. Depending on where you're located it's probably like seeing a bunch of Volkswagens are Fiats laying around. More plentiful in the United States. But not something you see on corner
Neat Chev old car, good job on the work,
i love to hear that great sound
I approve this video since I myself am a 60 model.🍷😎👌
good job on the work
Had a 67 stripped down 4 Door Biscayne, 3 on the Colume. Great in Winter 😊
It’s always amazing that people back then wouldn’t spend the very little money to have power brakes, steering, etc. those cars didn’t drive very well with manual brakes and steering. Especially parallel parking downtown as was a daily routine back then.
COLDWARMOTORS IS USING A 1960 BISCAYNE TO REBUILD A 1960 IMPALA, A "BISCALA"), WITH THE IMPALA'S 283 AND THE BISCAYNE'S THREE SPEED MANUAL.
I saw that video too, complex conversion job. This car i feel must be original, but i know about a 1960 bel air that needs full restoration that may be acandidate for some upgrades..
A fuel tank, is the stomach of a car.
When all else fails bang on the dash...It works!😉
I would have thought that a new battery and a new starter would have been the first order of business
Hola gracias por estos vídeos 👍👍👍
Great looking Chevy!
That motor is remarkably quiet
Amazing that some manufacturer still makes a fuel tank for a vehicle this old. Chevrolet does have a facility full of spare parts for their older models do they?
I had the identical car except in blue. Only options were a radio and heater. You have a nicer horn ring. Where do you find these cars?
See you can't be a shade tree Mechanic on vehicles today 😊
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹👑👍
backup lights don't work.
Do older car prefer water in the radiator over coolant?
So when bob seger tours Europe i understand that he rents this 60 chevy to get lucky in the backseat with groupies.😂
Are you planning a tire upgrade?
Awesome car , great job !
I'm working on my LS swapped 60 Biscayne for the past 3yrs & can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel isn't the train I thought it was lol... check it out if you're interested over on my channel ☺
Nice car, I noticed the metric speedometer. Was it sold new over in Europe?
Hey! Assembled in Denmark sold in Norway, as written in the description of this video, thanks for watching!
@@DaysofCars whoops, I forgot to read the description, great story on the car.
