  • My chest feels tight. I have butterflies in my stomach and my heart is fluttering. OMG! I'm falling in love with this car! This is without a doubt the best car you guys have done yet. I love the special touch of the steering wheel and RestoMod trim on the passenger dash. Everything about this car is out of control. My very first car, at 19, was a '69 Chevelle. It wasn't anything special like an SS, but it was still a '69. Wish I still had it, but I will gladly except this one as a replacement. I seriously feel like I'm 16 again and falling in love for the first time all over again. Oh, what a feeling!
  • Dear Resto Mods, you guys are giving away dream cars! This is the type of vehicle to pass down the family line
  • @Mr_James_802
    I have been dreaming about finding the perfect American Muscle Car worthy of "Hot Wheels" badge status. Gentleman, you have made my dream a reality. At age 65, this fantastic car has become the subject of an old man's dreams. In my mind, this masterpiece is already in my garage. Wish me luck! I really want to own this car.
  • @solok1642
    69 the best year of the Chevelle in my opinion. You guys did it just right
  • @scottwho7976
    Restomods has done it again! If there is a God; I beg him to PLEASE send this car home to me when the time comes!!!
  • @nedaCFilms
    No stripes, y’all did right! Perfectly clean, stunningly perfect 🤩
  • This is the ultimate Chevelle. Restmods this has to be the best Chevy ever built/ modified.
  • My dad had the same one when I was younger but when he passed away we lost EVERYTHING 😭😭 i would love to get this car ....
  • @BBrazor
    The crew at Restomods is going to have a hard time letting this one go, one sweet ride. I’m going to be very jealous of whoever wins this one. Going to be hard to top this one, keep up the good work!
  • This is my number one classic car ,ever since I layed eyes on this baby in 1982 I fell in love with the body,the way it was shaped and how aggressive it looked,seeing this one for sure brings me back to that day,I entered the contest pray for this ol man.
  • Way better than the charger. Keep dropping those 6 speed builds!
  • @kevenstowe1604
    That car is by far the coolest most Awesome muscle car on the Planet!!!
  • @DJDevine
    Absolutely fantastic! It reminds me of my childhood an it opens up so many memories! Beautiful work!
  • @MrBrown1371
    It's unbelievable that this is up to win again. 🎉😅
  • @4stevo
    You guys are true artists, it doesn’t get more gangster than this. In any city, any car show this one lives in the legends circle. 💥
  • @queenofheartssex
    When I was 11 years old I fell in love with the Chevelle, in my eyes it is the definition of the American muscle car. And I’m not concerned with the originality of components, it’s the look and the idea of it. A giant block of steel with a wide footprint and the biggest engine you can fit under the hood. If General Motors had all these parts available to them back then, they would have used them. If I ever get the funds I’m giving you guys a call. I would pay good money just to be in the same room as that beauty.
  • @robbetts128
    If I won this car I would build a garage just for it! But I would also want the gold hood with a restomod logo with the words "Parking Only" under it to hang in the new garage. Amazing work guys!
