Detroit Muscle goes on the hunt for their next big build: Project Ultra Violet…a 1970 Challenger. This Mopar is in serious need of a sand blaster! The team salvages a rotted out ’70 Challenger with how-to weld in a new metal roof, drip rails and A-pillars. Then, chassis guru Jeff Schwartz brings in his G-Machine chassis to convert uni-body Challenger to a full frame. We show you how to weld in a new trunk pan and fabricate a front cowl panel from scratch before the guys graft the world’s first low deck, all aluminum Hemi and T56 six speed gearbox.
Then, it’s step-by-step tech on how-to mini tub a muscle car rear end to create clearance for massive tires and celebrity builder Chris Ryan shows how-to lay down metallic paint and graphics on our very purple Challenger. The guys get into how to refurbish an expensive grill, insulate a uni-body plus tips on reassembling brightwork before fabbing a high flow EFI fuel system, serpentine belt drive and dual fan cooling system. Finally, the Mopar interior gets upgraded with performance seats, and a custom dash insert.

Growing up in the 60's & 70's this was one of my favorite muscle cars along with the 442 olds was another one….Javi G.
I have a Czechoslovakian Jawa Babetta 210 made on the Slovakian side in 1991.. by mostly Hungarian and Latvian parts.
I've been able to ride it down the driveway befor it's clutch fails. Gotten that far twice in almost a year 🫣
Great work
RIP Joe Elmore

Custom chassis, No cutting required! Proceeds to make a bunch of cuts to make it fit.
Don’t forget, after blasting, keep your sticky hands off the body, make sure you have your cotton or surgical gloves on until it’s painted.
I absolutely love watching your restoration videos—seeing those old cars brought back to life is amazing! It would be awesome if you could also highlight the Instagram accounts and social media pages of the talented people and companies you work with, like the guys from Blast from the Past, the upholstery team, and Prebuild Art. It would really enrich the audience's experience and also give some well-deserved promotion to the other experts involved in the process. Keep up the great work!
Now it's gonna look like 💩 crap with low profiles
I miss Mr. Elmore. 43 years old. Was my favorite thing to do back in the day, was to watch the powerblock. Was the replacement or graduation from Saturday morning looney toons❤😂
This is not a restoration it’s taking a body and building a whole new car. Still very good but other than the body everything else is new . You could slap on any body on this car and call it something else . Was still fun to watch though .
love the car, the color, not so much
this is the stuff i dream about doing one day, cant wait to get a garage someday!
I love the old cars and trucks they don't build them like they used to
el abuelo de los hellcats…
I like how the wrap it before you tap it joke got censored and dubbed over lol.
Yes we miss Joe thanks for replying these vids…
Your we saw intonation is very distracting!! You are over lapping frames is taking time away from time that we could listen to your ideas!!?
RIP Joe, I was sad to hear of your passing.
I've been hooked since Joe Elmore and Stacey David started, "Trucks". Now I have Power Nation on my TV.
Drive bad ? For the difference in price I'd say they where great.
RIP Joe
Nothing wrong with a 70 Plymouth Satellite – my dad had the sport version – 383 4v, dual exhaust, floor shift – back in the early 70s. I loved riding in that car. I would take it over a Challenger any day. More rare, more unique.
Super carrossier !! Quel beau travail …Un super atelier de restauration !!…Belle mécanique en prévision …Beau travail technique …Préparation moteur parfaite …Résultat époustouflant !! Congratulations
I have your answer… just make itt a LEGIT DRAG RACE DONOR with aluminum sheet and carbon fiber .. FIXED… 44:41 poof☆ Respectfully, Seth
Anyone else ever notice that all the guitar licks are knockoffs of 80s heavy metal ? 2:16:00 is a knockoff of Sabbath's Paranoid if I'm not mistaken , the music guy has done that on all the power Nation shows over the years I find it fun trying to figure out which song he used as I watch ! THANKS guys for all the fun over the years I love all the old shows except wasn't too into the 3 females but they were ok .# respectfully
Would love to see how to do this without spending 30K in "basic tools".. Let's se how you do without the sponsorships in your own garage…
RIP Joe Elmore
Of all the hosts on the power block shows over the years, you were my favorite
I AM a drummer. You can put a piece of tape on a cymbal and it will dampen the sound…….
I feel like I just watch Leonardo paint Mona Lisa great job guys!!!!!
Did they forget the Challenger grill emblem?
I want that 55 Chevy
Awesome episode!!! Never gets old!! 🤙👌
says "nothings for sale" Truth: everything is for sale
Check me out as I restore tons of rare classics
What's the difference between a satellite and a road runner? Trim and engine? What's not cool about it? Would you do a Camaro or Nova SS clone? What's the difference? NOTHING! 😂
I am now 68 years old, And as It says in the Bible?? In Proverbs If I recall? "it is Nought!"
"It is Nought!" And when He returns , He says , Look at what I got!?? Gentlemen? Uni-body sucks for all powerfull cars! It was a manufacturing model to save weight , and
costs to the O.E.Ms!!!! BUT RESPECTFULLY??? YOU AMERICAN HOT-ROD NUTS NEVER
FAIL TO RECYCLE AND RECYCLE ALL OF YOUR SELLING POINTS TO YOUNG MEN WHO
HAVE MORE TOSTESTERONE IN THERE BLOOD STREAM ! THAN IS GOOD FOR THEM!
THE PERFORMANCE OF THAT CAR,?? WITH YOUR MEGA BUCK MODIFICATIONS! ??? WILL
BE HARDLY NOTICED ON THE STREET!!! MARK MY WORDS! AT 200 MILES PER HOUR??
ON THE TRACK? MAYBE? WHAT AM I SAYING? LIKE A CARTOON IN A MAGAZINE I SAW , DECADES AGO??? THE YOUNG LADY IS STUCK IN TRAFFIC WITH HER BOYFRIEND? AND SHE LOOKS AT HER DATE? AND SAYS " YOUR 400 HORSE POWER
ENGINE…….REALLY IDLES NICE!!!! """ I THINK IT WAS POPULAR MECHANICS???
WE GET BORN, WE GET OLD, WE GET SICK, WE DIE! NOTHING CHANGES!
I SHAKE MY HEAD! kennethzakaib607@gmail.com 2024 montreal.
