She is absolutely gorgeous, and that sound! Wow! You got it right when you called her an "Apex Predator"! The LS-6 was truly the "King Kong" of muscle cars, and the sinister sound that engine made was not only music to those that had the means to possess her, but truly terrifying to those that had the guts to challenge her!

My opinion is that if the born with motor, transmission and rear are gone, especially with and LS-6, then it is no longer an LS-6.

Not bashing the car of the video, I think that they have done a great job!!! Beautiful car!!!!!
Great videos I really appreciate them born in 1960 so I love those Chevelle I appreciate your knowledge and the way you present the cars thanks again Ron from the salt soak New Jersey
To me the difference between a car that has its original drive train vs non-matching numbers is I would rarely drive the numbers matching car but without the original engine I would drive the hell out of that car it might be an everyday driver for a while.
Yeah these people asking fortune just because its a "nice car" is gonna come to a end here in about another 10-15 years when a lot the baby boomers that are into these cars the most start really dying off in big numbers, not nearly as many young people have the same interest in these cars to keep them at this level in the market. Maybe by then they will be more reasonably priced for cars like this.
@@liquidragonfu5546 Great point ..as a baby boomer (b.1960) I believe you are right. And thank God for that. Just as new and used Harley Davidson's took a big hit. Sellers - buyers and bidders take heed.
@@davethompson3140 Yep, this is just people trying to get rich selling there decent car and trying to blur the lines and pass it off for more than what it is, and what it is worth. Lest in my opnion.
Like many others, the 1970 is my favorite of all Chevelles. Astro blue/black stripes is my 2nd favorite combination (tuxedo black/no stripe is #1 for me). However, IF I was in the market for one, that white interior would be a deal breaker for me. On the other hand, my wife found and bought the tuxedo black 1970 Malibu that I built, "street raced" then sold years ago, so I'm not in the market. Our 70 is in my shop and we're restoring/upgrading it back to fighting shape right now. Even though it's "just" a Malibu, it has sentimental value to us. I don't care if this car goes into the registry or not, it's a beautiful car, even with that white interior.
I love watching ur videos just to hear ur knowledge. Sir know so much and thank u for exposing everything so well if I can ever afford one I will be sure to get in touch with u first! Such a beautiful car
UMMM, UMMM, UMMM!!! I do love me some Big Block Chevy's. Sounds really good. Reminds me some of the 69' SS 396 Chevelle I had. Bought it new, sure wish I still had it. Hugger Orange with Black interior. Thanks for sharing this great video with us.
I have just bought a 69 hugger orange SS 396 Chevelle with parchment interior, she arrived here in Australia in May, and she is beautiful, drives like new and highly optioned for the year
@@blueenglishstaffybreeder6956 👍🖐 Congratulations. Oh man, am I envious!!! My oldest nephew who remembers my 69' Chevelle, sent me just last week a Die Cast model of the 69' Chevelle SS 396. This model, from the Franklin Mint, is faithfully designed/reproduced just like the real item. It too is in Hugger Orange, F 70 14 Firestone Polyglass tires on the Chevy SS wheels, the Hood opens to reveal that massive Big Block with the Chromed 180° open Air Cleaner, the rectangular Chrome exhaust tips, a floor mounted stick shift etc, etc. This model looks like a full scale car, shrunk down.

I KNOW MY CHEVYS BUT THIS GUY IS GOOD...VERY GOOD. HERE WE HAVE BY APPERIANCE A PERFECT CHEVELLE. WRONG...WRONG...WRONG BUT IM GRATEFUL WE HAVE PPL LIKE HIM, THE KNOWLEDGE HE CARRIES. DOES ANYBODY KNOW OF SOMEONE WHO HAS A RUclips CHANNEL LIKE THIS BUT FOR CAMARO?
Completely with everything that you just said. Your knowledge is astounding as it blows me away. Please give some thought to showing your collection sir.
I like your videos and how you tell the truth about the whole car and it’s life and history it would be a great cruise in car it was born real but now you can actually drive it and it not be a garage queen
I have a Malibu that I converted to an SS clone. It all depends on what you want out of the car. If you're like me and you just want a car that goes, handles, and drives down the road nice, then a clone is good. I can cut holes in things for stereo equipment, upgrade the suspension and not worry about affecting value. I put a completely different engine in it. I painted it a completely non-period correct candy blue. Now if your one of those guys who parks it in shows and pulls out a chair and needs to brag on it for 8 hours to everyone walking by and needs to show all the paperwork to everyone then this might be the car for you :)
Truth be told these engines blew up 40 years ago. I worked at a Chevy dealer. Many CE blocks installed. Who cares. Still a beauty and you can drive it.
I"d rather have it for that price than a new top of the line SUV that will be worth half that much in 2 years! Remember correct ones have been over 100 k for twenty years!
Thanks Patrick... Beautiful car. I agree with the drivetrain gone and wrong color interior etc. that I would drive it some. What would this car bring with the right drivetrain and interior? I love your videos and especially your massive knowledge and insight. Thanks for your love and posting what you find.

Very Nice, I Watched a video on a 70 LS6 4 Speed, that was Emerald Turquoise, black buckets, it was in an Estate Sale but they were keeping it, can't find it again
Ohhhh, this is the color combination I had on my 70 Chevelle SS. Mine was a TH400 with buckets and it was the 350 HP 396(402). Later I installed a 375 Hp motor. I sure wish I still had it.
Van guard motor sales just posted a 70 chevelle with matching numbers L78. Blue also, said was Misty Blue, I think he said code 34. Said it was a rare color. Check it out.

After reading all of the comments indicating that the car is overpriced by 30K-40K I have to respectively disagree. If everything about this car was correct and it had its original documentation it would probably fetch 150K-175K, so the owner is basically giving a 50% discount because his(or her) car lack of these details. I would say that the asking price is in the ballpark, and just because he is asking 80K doesn't mean that he wouldn't take less. JMO.
One thing we all knew when barret Jackson was brought up rather the guy was going loose alot of money or its still going to be priced through the roof.But it is a very very nice car
I would take any model 1970 Chevelle SS, but whether the LS6 car is a 1000-point show car winner or one like this version I'd still drive it and enjoy it as Chevrolet originally intended. The only time the car would sit in a building is when it was not being driven. I wouldn't hang on to it for too long though; I'm sure there is at least one other person who would want to properly drive and enjoy the car as well.
Thatd a good looking car its not over restored it looks like it could be a survivor atleast on video it does. Thats the perfect car for date coded drivetrain or leave it a drive the shit out of it
Does anyone know the name of the guy that designed the looks of the 1970 Chevelle?? Whoever he is, he should be given a star on the Walk Of Fame for genius design. The best looking muscle ever. Nothing before or after ever matched the 1970 Chevelle.
Very nicely done with the changes .. maybe a bit pricey for not being an original drive train car. But a very very nice driver.. Thanks for another great video Patrick, great to see you out an about again
I have a 70 Malibu, but I also have a 70 396/402, 70 bucket seats, a 70 SS dash, and a 70 hood. Trying to decide on doing a "recreation". Would be painted 70 Forest Green Metallic to go with the green interior.

Love your work and travels very cool patrick.The car was exceptional great starter car for a collector.
Since it is not numbers matching, I would put it out on the street. But most seem to think it's overpriced. Still I would love to have it.
To me the difference between a car that has its original drive train vs non-matching numbers is I would rarely drive the numbers matching car but without the original engine I would drive the hell out of that car it might be an everyday driver for a while.
That’s the idea.
The money is in the numbers, and it has none. Body looks nice from here and that’s what you’ll be buying. But not for 80 grand.
