- Опубликовано: 23 апр 2020
- We met Ricardo at SEMA 2019 and knew right away that we had to shoot his Chevelle. His styling choices are very cool and its a very tasteful build overall. We love the color choices and the interior is simply beautiful.
And with an LS swap you know it makes good reliable power so sit back and enjoy the ride...

Very refreshing for someone to be honest about their HP.
With no apologies too. He wants it to be a reliable driver and doesn’t need 1000 hp. Can’t wait to go for a drive when it’s all dialed in
Yea, i agree with both comments , with an aside that half the fun of having alot of hp/tq is having more power than a 10" street tire can handle, lol
How many ponies? I totally missed it.
@@jaycustom21 420
Rte? Lol And besides how much do you really need? 🤷♂️
Flawless finish. Love the way it's rocking at 8:30 sitting at the red light. Both guys just rocking in their chairs like it's normal. Wait until they tune that beast. Beautiful craftsmanship. Perfect stance. You guys should all be proud of that one.
That chevelle is beautiful
Khalyl Burns What about them og floor mats though😂
I knew I recognized the seat style from somewhere! the Benz seats look great! that interior is lit!
Love the build!! Ricardo and crew are genuinely cool guys💯👊💯
Perfect example of what a modern muscle car should be. Awesome build
That's one badass Chevelle brother.
The more I look at Mr. Lopez’ work, the more of a fan I become. He and his team turn out some exceptional builds. Well done, Sir.
One of the few channels I follow religiously. Great cars. Nice conversations. Wonderful details and you always put your foot in them. Love it.
Damn that’s a bad ass Chevelle I always Like the back tail lights on this year rather than the 70 just my opinion great video Shawn
If you ever watch the movie "Faster", the Chevelle in there has a '70 front and a '71-'72 rear. Its like they made the Chevelle that should have been.
Yeah, if I buy a 70, it’s getting 71 rear bumper
8:20 It's like you 2 are bopping to some imaginary music at the stop light😂.
Once tuned it will be spot on. Love the color combos. I always loved the Chevelles. I had a 72 a long time ago and regretted that I didn't have it too long to enjoy much.
It needs some minor tweaking (tune, brakes) but it’s a great build. Killer color combos!
Man, that is some color on the Chevy. Very inventive.....lots 'o pesos went into that rig. There is NOTHING that hasn't been touched on this beauty! A good build is never done.........
every mexican here saying great job a el gran patron viejo quedo mamalon el chevelle saludos desde mexico orgulloso de tu creasion ;) great video dude
Damn. Five months. Insane. Got some good ideas for my Chevelle too.
I've always had a soft spot for orange muscle cars. Guess it goes back to Bo and Luke Duke. Pretty sure they never wore seat belts either. That interior was clean, stitching was exceptional. Thanks Shawn for another dream build!
The interior work on here is stunning. This whole build is really beautiful and a few minor tweaks will make it a great cruiser
That car is completely wicked. Love it, thanks.
Its kind of a breath of fresh air to see a custom on a stock frame and not be totally radical and butchered. My favorites are the survivor series cars.
I love em all when they’re done well and this one is a wonderful build with great color choices
Not too many hispanics in the mus le car/ custom field so good for u compa ! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Brother you'd be surprised
🇲🇽🇺🇸
It's plenty.
It's safe to say that all the amazing vehicles shown here on this channel are truly a "Labor of love" and it truly shows!.. Thanks for sharing this journey with us all and please keep them coming!. 🙏🏻❤️🍻
this may be the best chevelle build I've seen so far
It is a beautiful build for sure
@@AutotopiaLA definitely is. Without a doubt.
@@AutotopiaLA do you know if they put bigger brakes and rotors on it yet?
looking at this video again, this interior is fu*king beautiful!!!
The interior is just so simple yet beautiful
The first thing that comes to his mind when he drives the beast “he needs breaks”
Love it. Very “simple”. Always a big fan of “less is more” concepts.
That interior and that color combo 👍
def the best year for this car ... awesome
This is 10x better with a good pair of noise cancelling headphones! The cars sound next to you.
That lope @ 8:20 -45 wow
Awesome! I’ll have to put mine on and have a listen
I'm totally envious of that Patron!! I just bought a bottle of the "everyday" Patron last night for me and a friend to enjoy tonight. But the stuff y'all were drinking must be soooo smooth. GREAT CAR tho!! Perfect color the interior looks amazing. And I can only imagine what it'll be like when everything is all dialed in. Thanks for sharing this one Shawn. Gonna go check out the merch now. Need at least one of those t-shirts.
The shirts are really good quality so you’ll enjoy those. He nailed it on this build and yes on the bottle of smooth tequila. Love it!
Wow such a clean old school build.
Very nice. Love the color!
What an outstanding build & the time frame het got it done in is outstanding, too! I hope Ricardo has you back for a proper shakedown when the tune, belts, and brakes are all dialed in to his liking. I hope a little of his fine tequila is left over for that run, too.
Definitely need more of El Gran Patron...one for driving and one for after driving 😂
Beautiful Chevelle!
this is a fun show, thanks!
That is a badass Chevelle good job Ricardo and your crew
They really built a work of art
Love the car and that dude did sweet job on interior 👍
Than you... we try our best...
What a beautiful clean build, love the color combinations
The colors are so rich. Love it!
One amazing piece of art The color combo is perfect you guys did an awesome ridiculous job on the Chevelle. 👍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🇵🇷
Beautiful custom Chevelle, great job
Extremely beautiful ride brotha, that ls1 motor sounds awesome!!!
Great work, Guy loves what he does and it shows, “Bien Hecho Compa”!
Beautiful ride its clean 🔥
Very slick, paintwork immaculate
Beautiful!!!
SE NOTA QUE ERES MEXICANO Y NO PODÍA FALTAR EL EMBLEMA DEL TEQUILA. FELICIDADES POR EL EXCELENTE TRABAJO EN ESE POTENTE AUTO.
"We got the seats from a Mercedes! We stole them" 😆 🤣 😂
Good job guys...good job!
Agreed. They built a beauty
Beautifully modified, what an amazing color.
Love the gold to break up the orange and black. Great choices on this and that interior is 🔥
Good stuff! Love how the cam causes the rocking motion. 💯
Actually, the tune was still off but when right it should still have a nice rhythm with that cam
Really really nice and my favorite year too!! Good job guys!!👍😎
They nailed it on this one. Beautiful build
this looks realy good
Blissful as usual
Yeah, beautiful build and Ricardo is such a cool guy
Such a beauty, I love her color.
Same for me! He nailed it on the color combo
Love the combo and that engine bay is so clean.
Same for me. Great color choices
@@AutotopiaLA you find some great cars love the channel 👍👍
So fresh and so clean, I can't wait to have one of these bad boy! Hopefully Rick Ross doesn't buy them all..lmao 🤣😂
I love how people are pulling the front seats out of all kinds of cars you wouldn't expect, I've seen Audi, Alfa Romeo and now Mercedes and they all look great.
That shifter was really cool, the paint and interior were all on point looking fantastic, but the icing on the cake was the bottle in the boot =D (oops trunk hehe)
The boot! 😂 I really like this build. The colors. The choices. And yes on repurposing seats from a wide variety of vehicles!
The chevelle looks great with all the chrome blacked out. When I get one that's exactly what I'm going to do.
Agreed. Love his choices and execution on this build. Looks mean af
Piece of artwork.: rock on 🤘
Sweet ride
Sure is a beauty
wow the interior...... crazy
Beautiful interior. They’re detail work is on point
I wanna bring this machine to Brazil 🔥
Nice car and his colour is beautiful
Ricardo and his crew did an absolute knockout beautiful job on this car. Not my choice of exterior colors but nonetheless a very well-built attractive car
Based on hp number and looks alone this car fits me like a glove love it 👍🏾👍🏾
I hear ya. Beautiful and total reliable driver!
Now this is NICE!!! 👍👍👍
Yeah, really beautiful build from Ricardo and his crew
Well done to the host. Loved the color.
Thanks. The color combo is so good on this one
Great episode!! This guy built a really cool car
Another one of my dream cars
Love this build
Badass is right...and that interior is perfect too!
Cheers.
The interior and the color combo are so good on this one
Those black bumpers look killer, I might have to copy that someday.
NICE & CLEAN CUSTOM 71 CHEVY CHEVELLE
Such a beautiful ride!
@@AutotopiaLA SHAWN BLESSINGS FOR YOU & AUTOTOPIA-LA
That’s a good looking Beast
Yeah that’s badass
Really a beautiful build
Well done!
Agreed. Beautiful build
Beautiful
It really is
Mmmmm can't wait for mine to be done 😈💪🏾
Can’t wait to see it!
the way that thing idles 🎶🎵🎶
And when he gets the tune right it’ll be spectacular
This is the first car that I wasn't thrilled about. It is a very nice build and he nailed the interior. The outside to me didn't flow with all the black.
That's the point.... It's not to "thrill" you it's for the owner not you, now go build your own to your liking, and let's see if your build "thrill" us.
I think the gold helps to break up the orange/black theme. Seeing it in person might change your mind
The care is beautiful
looks mental
It’s such a nice build. Love his color choices
awesome car man
Y love it the colors the motors the cars hooo yeee sure sooo good project
Nice ride. Could use a higher stall converter or simply put it in neutral when you come to a stop.
Hello Santa!!! I’ve been a good boy all year!!! LOL! I had a 71 back in the day and it was nice!!! The power of straight motor and good headers & exhaust make all the difference!! And the sound of an automatic trans. snaggin’ second gear!! I’m drooling over here, can you tell!? Ha!
Great looking car!
Agreed. Absolutely love his color choices
Oh my 🤤 beautiful
Sure is a beauty
What a beautiful car 👍👍
That thing lopes like an old muscle car with a big cam. Those two bouncing in their seats at the stop sign! I have a 72 Chevelle and am looking to do the ls swap. Nice car. Cool honest guys.
love that!
It’s a beauty for sure
Nice color 🤗
It’s a beauty for sure
Another beautiful Chevelle, it's definitely my favorite car....
And since this shoot he put a new engine in to get more power!
@@AutotopiaLA Waoh ... She already had it in her womb. I am French, 44 years old and a fan of old American cars since I was a kid, the lines, the melody of the V8, I love them all but I have a weakness for the already beautiful original Chevelle, in restomod it is a jewel. Thank you in any case for all these videos that treats us. Cordially. Of France.
Channel keeps getting better👍🏼
Thank you. That’s the goal 👊
Nice one!
Nice car and seems like Lopez is cool
Ricardo is really cool and this car is definitely a beautiful build
I would take this over any jdm
Me too! 👊
That’s one nice Chevelle 👍
Sure is a true beauty
Beautiful seriously damn
I really love that every single video that has such amazing cars when put on "Captions" say's "Music" when people hit the gas and they take off lol.. It really is "Music" and I just wish I could create some of the same myself!. LOL
Espetacular!
👊
Nice color combo
Yeah, rich beautiful choices on colors
