- I start a new build with a 1977 Malibu Classic that has been severely rusted out in the past. It pretty much needs a complete body swap, so let's get started! In this video I change out the ignition lock and stereo. I paint some parts and answer some comments. I also preview a new scooter.

Lee, don't listen to the goofy comments....We like your channel for the reasons you stated, specifically that you use what you have readily available & don' buy anything unless you absolutely have to. That is smart!
Thanks
Your doing awesome Lee . Happy to see you getting some sponsorship and your being true to yourself and not selling out to crap . Love your Channel
Thanks
Hey, that's the stereo I sent you! There is a little USB drive in there with some music on it. Malibu is looking great!
cool, I'll check it out
Bout time something worth watching again. My favorite channel. Thanks so much Lee.
Thanks
He's good, he ain't no lazy bum.....😝👍
It's been very nice seeing this thing come together. Problems slowly getting eliminated;
Dome light ✅️
Stereo working ✅️
Passenger door jams ✅️
Primer can finally showing up in the mail ✅️
Got a brand new scooter ✅️
Painted taillight area ✅️
I love watching a plan fall into place. Someone ought to be proud to drive this car when it's all finished. Instead of paying like $650 on a car payment like i do.
Thanks
Rit dye the seats and carpet the stuff is cheap follow the directions and use a scrub brush to get it into the material let it dry the stuff works great
I have some ordered. We'll see
That's why I watch you LEE!! Your real deal great talented craftsman ship brother 👍🏻 hugs to Nikki ✌🏻❤️🎶
Thanks
I can’t believe wat you have done to this car you are amazing with just a small shop really you are doing the work out side just amazing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks
The car is looking amazing Lee. Great save. It was almost down to scrap metal. You saved that one👍great work💯👍
Thanks

Thanks

Good seeing another good video
Thanks
Cragers look good on it.
Had my doubts at the beginning…but glad I hung around! This might be my new favorite build. Good job on the progress to date and looking forward to your next video.
Thanks
She's gonna look good when you get it done Lee ! Maybe you could get a big Danielle, or a hot Jolene as a co star. 😜🤣
maybe
This is incredible watching this build series, hell of a job.
Thanks
I like that when i put on a clunkers & classics video, my 10 year old son knows who im watching just by the intro music.
I love these “split” rebuilds. Amazing talent. The Cold War Motors channel is doing similar thing with a 59 Impala.
Your Malibu is really taking shape!
Thanks
It's going to look nice when it's painted red with the rim's nice job 👍🇨🇦
Thanks
I just use my riding lawnmower for hauling stuff around the yard
just noticed i have the same stereo from my old car , great no bs workmanship , working with what you have , looking forward to how it turns out, this gives me the boost i need to carry on with my project . keep it real as always :)
Thanks
Hope you had a great 4th Lee! The cars looking amazing!!!!!
Thanks
Its his money, he can spend it how he wants.
Looking like a classic old hotrod
Really enjoying how the Malibu is coming out, can’t wait to see the finished car
Thanks
I enjoy realistic build channels like yours. Some of the big time channels just don’t make sense. Like you said, just content for views. You build stuff that average guys would build in their garage or backyard. Keep it up!
Thanks
Thanks Lee..Just keep doing your videos your way. Stay real.
Thanks
The Malibu is looking good! My first car was a 76 with a 350. I bet you'll get a lot of use from the scooter such as if you need to run to get a smaller part off one of the cars in the back. Everyone at the swap meets has some little scooter or minibike to cover ground.
Lots of work I don't have that much ambition anymore good job
Thanks
Also thkns for the update on how those other guys are make any money on their videos I had no idea
They make $10k per 1 million views..plus merch, which is about the same amount for the big guys, so about $20k
Jump a kiddie pool with the scooter....Car is looking great.
Keep the wheels, I like them.
Curious to see the condition of the yellow and red side marker lights on either Malibu. This Malibu would make a great power tour car for next year, don’t see too many Colonnade GM hard tops any longer.
The Highboy scooter goes 26 miles on a single charge with a maximum of 260 lb weight limit
cool
Good evening from Cape Cod ⚓ that electric scooter looks interesting, I should be real convenient. Your Malibu is coming along nicely. Hey I just realized you're not tripping over cats anymore, where they disappear to? Anyway don't apologize for talking, it's a good day to explain exactly what you're doing and why. Keep up the great work Lee 👍✌️🇺🇲
Thanks
Rit scarlet dye. May be a close match
I recently got an ebike its definitely nice to have the electric to get around.
It’s looking good. You make it look easy. I enjoy the videos and learning a thing or two. I had a 75 Malibu. The grill on the black car is a 75. It’s a one year grill.
interesting
I feel your pain on hot. Heat index been over 110 all week. I been suffering out in it everyday
Looking good man a lot of hard work 💪
Thanks
Lee, pay the keyboard restoration experts! They have never restored or built a car of any kind 🤣🤣,it's easy to watch all the high dollar, Saturday, restoration shows and think what they say is the end all be all of restoration! Keep on doing what you are doing 👍, Budget,Diy style restorations. Best down to earth,real world get it done RUclips car channel!
Thanks
Man you do some great work
Thanks
Two Thumbs up !!
Try a piece of cove base. It’s made out of vinyl. Comes in a lot of different colors. You’ll find it at Home Depot in the vinyl tile section. You may need two pieces.
This would look better with horse shoes in the front raising it 1 and a half or 2 inches . Its turning out nice !
Nice work. I like that you keep saving cars other people would probably just junk. I always laugh when I think about the lack of malaise cars and what movie makers will have to do to find a '76 Impala or a '74 Fury (or even an '85 K Car) for a movie. :D
Thanks 👍
Cars looking great its come a long way quickly hats off to you bud, the bumpers can be sunk in bud if you drill them behind the mounting plate on the cylinder, press them in enough so you dont need the rear filler panel then pop a screw in the hole you drilled they are oil filled tho so if you do it keep your face out the way 👍💯👌
yes but I don't like that look
Lee, Those pop rivets are fast but if you are keeping that car the after market cheaper window motors go bad quicker than originals. With nuts and bolts it is a quick swap if you have bad luck with a cheap Chinese window motor down the road. Some new motors actually come with nuts and bolts if you get lucky. I have done many factory rivet drill out or grind outs. Rivets were the fastest and cheapest way to go at the GM plants back in the day but the parts were randomly selected and rigorously tested. A factory part like a motor would be turned on and off until failure, they were expected to last ten years or for the life of a vehicle, all depending on usage, cycles, etc. These “new” motors you bolt them in, say your prayers and hope they last at least a few years. I put one in my Firebird maybe 15 years ago and it is still good. My 60 Impala had both originals fail two years ago. Originals I had to drill the door metal to be able to drill the rivets out. So originals lasted exactly 61 years each, new Chinese motors lasted two years each. World wide parts quality is at an all time low for every country with China leading the pack. In many cases China is the only source for certain parts for old cars so I give China respect for that. Just wish they would step up quality. It fried both new ones in two years as mentioned. I next rebuilt both original window motors and put those back in. Did many other cars window motors for other people, have no idea if most of them lasted long, most were charity jobs and those cars were rough and rusty not long for the world. The perfect type cars for putting in the cheapest replacement motors you could find. A car that might last two years tops at max, burning oil, onion skinned tires, dash lit up for every major system and the bottoms of both front fenders and door bottoms rusted off, side skins rattling in the breeze as it sails down the road. Just a car they needed running for another few months with a working window. Thanks for showing the ignition lock replacement, you are really good at explaining the repair. That brought back memories of one that locked up on my friend’s car and a very crazy night. One last compliment, way to be genuine and yourself. People won’t always like you but if you are genuine that is correct. If you are loved by masses then you are playing, a chameleon who must shift to be popular, copying others, faking, selling out or in, acting, just not being yourself, trying to be that clown or that perfect somebody. That definitely works and good for anyone making it no matter how they pull it off. Someone like me however appreciates somebody like you, a man with a brain, opinions and ambition being genuinely yourself showing what you are doing and explaining it well.
The jealous people will all ways leave goofy comments keep up the good work.
Love watching ur videos
Thanks
Thanks.
Hello there I am watching ur video and I looked up on ebay and I saw a rear bumper filler for ur 77 Malibu
Wonder if one could suck that rear bumper in toward the sheet metal to fill in the gap?
I don't like that look
The scooter is cool
I like it
For as many times as you have had to do ignitions you should just break down and buy the steering wheel tool.. it’s pretty inexpensive like 20-30 bucks.. it would definitely help with the retainer ring
Love your videos keep up the good work I think that's a 75 grill on the black Malibu
Thanks
The Grill on the Black one is from a 1975 Malibu Classic the one on brown is the Right grill for the black one to bad its broken .....
Have you thought about dying the inside of the Malibu I do it all the time you're doing a very good job on that car
I have some dye ordered
Another great video Lee. Btw, the grille on the black car is correct for a 1975 Malibu/El Camino/GMC Sprint. The Tan Malibu has the correct 77 Grille. And if you're serious about a Laguna front nose, I have several in stock. And I'm in Central Texas. I've been working on, and collecting parts for this generation of vehicles for over 30 years.
not really interested but curious what you sell everything to complete the swap for.
Could you use a piece of sheet metal for the rear filler piece? If not how about black rubber landscape edging from a hardware store? Neither would be perfect but would look better than a gap, and its cheap.
I hate mail orders the worst time spent in tracking stuff.but sometimes you got no choice if you need something and its not at the store.peace......i need that scooter..
good video
Thanks
Oh yeah! Take that rear bumper off! Make a roll pan for it!
Sorry said his channel wrong.."Adventures Made from Scratch"...decent youtuber!!
OG Lee (original gangsta.) 😉✌
It’s a shame they were having supply chain issues with the new model. It looks just like a mountain bicycle. Maybe they will send you one in the future.
Keep it up man!...
I will
Good show Lee! It would be killer if you could change the nose and tail to a 73 or 74! If that is possible??
Yeah if you order something you don't need it arrives the next day, but if you really need it you'll be waiting over a week. So annoying.
true
You can get the dye at just about any store it's called rit the only problem is if your seat gets wet,even sweat it gets all over ya.i does look good thou.you just can't get in with sweaty balls lol
Mr. B. Here ! 🍩☕️👀😎👍. Happy 4th Lee ! Vehicle is looking good it’s a lot of work nice job so far 👀😎👍👀😎👍
You should buy strip of rubber for your rear bumper insert . I have bought rolls of different thicknesses of rubber for different projects
hi lee is looking amazing and i love the headliner and the interior with the captain seats. hope you had a happy 4th july you and nikki. see you in your next video.
Thanks
Lord I was born a rambling man. Smoking ciggies as fast as I can. Mumbling under my cigarette I hope you understand. Lord I was born a rambling man 😂
👍👍👍
Content creators who use cars as their content is tough, because you never know what car people like to view. If they don't like the car you're working on your views lack for that series. I'm pretty sure that's why vgg and ddss play musical cars.
They usually get a different car every week.
I like this channel because it's start to finish with details on the price of everything and it's relatable. I stopped watching those other channels because the "comedy" is annoying and they're over produced and heavily edited!
@@clunkersandclassicsyou talked today about some RUclipsrs abandoning their cars. I’m not sure the difference in fixing cars and just letting them sit on your property?
@@diannathorp3006 I'm talking about them abandoning them on the side of the road because they don't care about them and they are worthless. They collect the $10k and move on to the next vehicle for next weeks show.
You resurrected it
For the rear bumper filler try replica plastics
When you are working on this I keep thinking of Art and if he has regrets about not fixing his baby earlier
He can always buy it back from me
Is there any way to pull the bumpers in closer to the body so you don't need the filler panels?
Making me laugh today 😂😂😂
Enjoy the content. Something the average guy with some common sense and hard work can afford to do. Keep on keeping on.
By the way any chance you were the lead singer for RamJam. Lol
Thanks
Wow bro you are so mad at the world damm you need to lighten up just a little bit okay ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
👌👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Coming along nicely Lee
How's Maggie doing
Thanks. Who's Maggie?
@@clunkersandclassics sorry I forget the dogs name. 😭
What if you put a small piece of sheet metal for the rear bumper filler and don't get rear ended of course - should work cheap .
Wouldn't it be easier to take your pickup over and grab 3 tires . I would break my neck trying to one hand with a tire in the other
I can't help but wonder if some hand sanitizer would help with the stick stuff, it's mostly alcohol. some even got the smell pretty but, it's 70's plastic some tests might be wise first.
Clean it scrub brush it come out nice. The rear valance i think I got better one in Calgary
I’m not here to trash on them but I’m gonna trash on them… 😂 you can’t help yourself
If you've ever made content for RUclips before, you would understand his frustration! I've learned more from this channel alone, than any of those comedy based car channels combined!
When your done with the Malibu, I have a trade you might be Interested in for it. 97 SS Camaro 30th anniversary 6speed manual. Runs n drives.fast car . T tops don't leak. Interiors really clean no tears. Needs paint . Maybe tires there getting dry. Let me know if interested. I can send video n pics.
Why don’t you wear some shorts in that heat?
RUclipsr "adventures made in scrap" is also an Ebayer that sells parts from his scrap yard..in a few of his videos, I've noticed a few 77 in his yard...Maybe if you reach out to him, he may have the bumper filler?? His name is Silas...Just an idea for ya...
Did the horn work on malibu after the ign switch?...You may want to save the the column out of tan car for parts
it didn't work before
@@clunkersandclassics Did tan cars horn work before?
Would you consider painting a Chevelle for me?
I have that center rear bumper filler Lee how do I reach you
my email is in description
Is there room to sit on the tire if it was sideways on the tread plate?
Them stereo lights can be harsh at night at least the one i have is.
