- One of our all time great project cars is the Crew Cab Chevelle: a 1966 Chevy Chevelle that we bought for $1000 and have made all sorts of modifications to. Here are some of the best things we've done to this lovable car, plus a whole bunch of Roadkill style snafus along the way. #Roadkill #RoadkillGarage #MotorTrend

brig back Roadkill to RUclips
Roadkill is currently in the brig sailor.
I agree, hurt when they left! I just started my channel where I take trucks up into the bush and wreck em. Maybe I can make a few folks laugh.
Oh yeah, Roadkill Garage... I remember when I could actually watch this show. Such a shame.
Roadkill Garage was always on MOD.
@@Hotlog69 unfortunately with all the monthly subscription fees that pile up nowadays I had to take a hard look at what I was able to justify and MOD just isn't something I can do anymore.
Mike O'Barr it’s a dollar a month man come on.
That's $1 a month for the rest of my life to keep watching.... And I have to use their terrible video player.
Discovery bought Motor Trend, then they killed the youtube channel. Last December they ran a special, 4.99 for the year. I signed up
I wish roadkill returns to RUclips!
Finally something worth watching!! Nostalgia here we go!!
Love my 66 300 Deluxe, turns heads daily. Best driver I've ever owned. Can't wait to finish it.
4 door muscle cars where pretty common & popular in Australia back in the day 🙂. The Chevelle looks nice 👍
Used to love roadkill. For principal, I refuse to pay. VGG does a lot of this, on a real budget too.
for $60 a year, i can go to a swap meet and buy a ton of car mags that will teach me things.
Just fuckn around on classic cars day in day out that’s why like this cast keep it coming 🤙🏻
Best part, "watch the paint Dulich"
The perfect way to start a week. Go Roadkill!

love 66 dirt cheap nice job man
Just love the magic these two create and how well they seem to work together...#bestutubersever
I miss roadkill. Legends that i miss because i cant afford motortrends. Sad.
I literally bought a year for $24...
same here i miss those roadtrips ang junkyard
@@nates9353 good for you. I dont have 24$ for a service
4 door cars make great sleepers,had a 79 olds 88 with a 350 lt1
You guys help me learn so much
Roadkill material! Haha the thumbnail had me
MOTOR YOU yes
Wow I remember roadkill, thank God for VGG
66 dirt cheap amazing
This Malibu is so badass!
GREAT VIDEO DAVID AND STEVE. HOT RODDING DOES NOT HAVE TO BE EXPENSIVE. HOT RODDING IS ABOUT USING YOUR RESOURCES TO THE BEST OF YOUR ABILITY. JUNKYARDS AND SWAPMEETS.
Cool cars!!! I love 4 durs!!!!
Great show. Really enjoy the builds. So many cool junker cars that you just can't get down here... but I do wish Freiburger would wear some better foot protection when he works on the cars.
Wow that's an awesome car!
Mental note for when I have money 😄
I'd love to daily this car,what a beast
Finally aftar a long long time 🥰Roadkill

I have a 67 chevelle and I love it
I’d probably do a basic rebuild and use it as a DD. A four door is good for that
if you can find one rust free, then grab a work truck at auction and transfer over the drivetrain and AC and some used speed parts, you can beat the heck out of a new lease car.
Like it makes a great street sleeper !😎
We need to pay them so they can afford to give Lucky a mic.
Bro I watch u guys all week
@@WESH_TV reported. That makes three.
On my third episode now.....IM A FAN
50 year old teenagers. Gotta love em!
Loved to see it raise its rear on the first burnout--that's what you want for a good launch, not a squat. Second, that switch pitch torque converter was such a great idea, I can't believe GM didn't continue it. They needed it with their 2 speed automatic with a 1.48 first gear multiplication. Stand on the gas, and stall speed went from 1,800 RPM to somewhere around 3,300 RPM. I have one with a manual switch, in between a THM400 and a 461 cid Olds with variable duration lifters. That thing can pull off the line in third gear (manual valve body) and get 15mpg in a 4-4-2 with a 3:1 rear axle ratio, or I change the stall speed and bang it into First and go to 60mph in 5 and a half seconds.
Nowadays, you have 4 speed automatics with steep first gears and lockup torque converters. But back in the muscle car days when GM was handicapped with a 400 cid limit? That switch pitch torque converter would have made a difference on some of their muscle car options.
As for the best 455, the problem was none were offered in a truck, so you can't just grab heavy duty parts cheap in the junkyard--unless there's a FWD GM motorhome, and then there's a Toronado 455 under the hood with a forged crank. The Buick's advantage was if you knew how to drill the head for the Stage 1 valves, otherwise its light weight was a double -edged sword--not a lot of strength if you were going to go nuts with boost. The Pontiac 455 had a lot of cheap torque potential, once you got past the Armasteel connecting rods. Find some 6X or 1971 2bbl 96 heads, stab in a Ram Air cam, and the stock cast exhaust manifolds even had a header design to them rather than the terrible log style on some luxury cars.
Albert Gaspar. good info, thanks for sharing...my 455 street strip Pontiac had so much bottom end in my '65 GTO with its narrow rear wheel wells that hooking up at the strip sometimes happened, sometimes didn't. i have dialed the bottom end back on this latest build. take care
That looks like my old 66
300 deluxe I got rid of maybe 10 years ago in Arkansas. I still have the 230 inline six it came original with car
I like how steve rides the engine/trans in like dr. strange love lol
I kinda like the look, of the four door.
well well well good to see ole friedburgler and doli again.missed you fellas. oh and the beard???? guy anywho was good episode.would be nice to see more of this fine show on utube again but ofcourse motrend has to make money so i guess i wont cuz i dont have money either but thanks for the post.maybe one day you will remember all the folks that made you popular by word of mouth and treat them to some more of this good ole roadkill vid all the best you guys ;)
From what I remember I saw you guys driving that car on the road some where between the Ohio turnpike and Pennsylvania maybe, me and my wife were going to D.C. from Michigan and out of nowhere you appear with your Roadkill logo across the back window in white letters and then I look to see who’s driving and I saw the one in the ball 🧢 cap then I said wow! It’s the guys from roadkill and my wife turns and looks as if she knew what I was talking about and like that you were gone, it was around June 16th 2018 and I hate that I’ll never know if I really saw you guys or not. It’s weird that from seeing y’all on RUclips made me feel like I saw friends from school. It’s a good thing you didn’t pull into a gas station because you’d be going who the heck is this guy 😳 but I love the show
fryberger unit dosage of geniuses man I like this I like to swap a Chevy with a 455 Buick engine man that's perfect keep up the good work
🐎a well entertained and satisfied subscriber
what a car
I think it's really cool because it's a crew cab Coupe
You guy from Roadkill are top notch, I enjoy your show, the 66 Chevelle 4 door is sometime I have been looking for a long time can't never seem to find one worth restoring! Any tips?
I got one out in Cali lmk if intrested
Working on a 65 crew cab currently.
Dulcich your stare makes you look like a crazy person lol
What's with all the AT's? Install a third pedal and one of those pokey things up through the tunnel.
Pokey thing that goes through the tunnel? Why I have one of those!
I don't know if you guys still answer questions on this build but, here it goes. Hope yas do! You guys replaced the wheels and tires with that nice new set, can we have the specs on that new set of wheels and tires, please??
Nice
Upload more roadkill on RUclips! #bringbackroadkill
They weren't lying when they chose the Buick for torque that burnout at the end was shocking
Thermoquad, the only carb that punishes you at WOT.-David Freiburger
YES!
Doesn't the flat side go up on the coil spring? Or does it vary from manufacturer?
It is very hard to find 2 door cars new or used any longer, and the younger generation are doing a lot with 4 door cars..... The other tough thing to find is anything with manual transmissions any more.
1000....800 to much! LOL.... But hey your in Cali, so I get it
I find the Maguiar's ads particularly amusing.
At 0504 where did they test run lol looks like home
Dude where in az are you guys
Question from the UK - is that Buick 455 engine the same as was fitted to Kojak's Buick Century, which I noticed had a "Stage 1" badge on the boot and on the wings at one time?
Yep it's a Buick 455 c.i. big block V8. Mostly known for being the powerplant of Pontiac's "The Judge" GTO.
what was the mounts that was placed on the a body cross frame, i want to put a 455 in my a body
I think roadkill might have the all-time record for using the most optima
6:50 so they are ordinary mechanics..
💪💪
I dont know Steve's background. But Frieburger I wouldnt call ordinary. Hes knowledge of everything automotive is astounding.
Steve is a "mechanic" Friebuger is a "technician". Those of us that dont just turn wrenches or just throw parts on but actually understand the physics and engineering of all the components of the vehicle and know how to rebuild and diagnose are technicians. Everybody else is a mechanic
Cut out the center and make it a 2 door. With 2 1/2 feet shorter, it could do badass wheel-stands.
That’s kind of rude you know but I still loveRoadkill it’s still a good video to learn about stuff like you know if you buy a car from a junkyard you know how to fix it up because I Roku so that’s why I love roadkill and there might be a missed type
both the driver's and passenger's head went thru the windshield
Since no more roadkill on youtube I watch vvg
All the fans that Roadkill/ Motortrend lost went over to Hoonigan. So far so good there. I just hope that Hoonigan doesn't go the same route these guys went.
I now only write lists in black marker on brown cardboard because Roadkill
ive never had an issue dropping in a big cap hei.
That old chevelle looks mean. So what if its a 4 door id consider it still a musclecar. It was downright evil when then put that blower on it
How was the distributior tested? What and where is it connected????
Power and ground to the HEI it has the coil on top and terminals in the cap. A yellow and a black, dont use the brown it's for the tach. Funny these are becoming a thing of the past. If you are lost say you are lost and leave it to others.
Yaaaassssss
#1 on the list: turn the crank to see if it even turns. THEN do plugs and stuff.....
2:00 you wanna try that again?😂
What rims are those on on it now would
Love to get me some for my chevelle wagon
American Racing Torque Thrust II
You can’t beat the torque of a 455 but you do need to watch that oil pressure and rpm redline.
I'm in Australia and can't seem to find more episodes even if I do pay? WTF.
Steve sure gets electrocuted alot.
Is it just me or were they putting in plugs and then time warped to the engine being out and on the fork lift?
Its amazing u can get these 4 doors for cheap whitch is the same car pretty much as the 2 door and its the same car
On ce crorait en plein mad max serieux
I’m still waiting for Top Gear America.
SUGGESTION: PLEASE BRING BACK DIRT CHEAP CHEVELLE.
Wont be long before guys are converting the 4 door family cars into 2 door musscle cars. Ive see a few guys convert the 4 door 55 to 57 chevys in to 2 doors with new reproduction sheet metal and donor cars.
What wheels are those
Not bad
I want finnigan
He's out Boating.
“Getting a breeze” “your vent might be open” to guys in a car it’s a little awkward🤔🤔🤔😂😂😂😂
When will Roadkill be on RUclips again ???
Hans Adi probably never
It won't be on YT ever again. Motortrend is greedy AF and they want people to pay for their channel in order for people to be able to see Roadkill and other shows like Dirt every day that used to have free episodes on YT.
When capitalism fails...
When you type "car hits skunk" in the search bar.
Bring back roadkill to youtube please
I miss Dulcich
My uncle has a yellow Buick wildcat in his yard, if he didn’t have legit wildcats living in it I’d love to restore it. But they ain’t even that nice looking 😂
Where can I build a hybrid like that I
did no one else realize how long that 350 pulled that burnout or is that just me
Shoulda primed the motor while the spark making thingy was out.
I will cut holes in floors and grind frames all day for $25 an hour.
Can yall do worlds greatest drag race 10!.
Edit: but with a bugatti veyron and the McLaren senna again
