“Whether it likes it, or not...”. It will like it! Nice job. Always a dirty and tedious one, but you saved your awesome car for many, many years to come. 👍👍

I must say you have talent! I have been restoring cars for a long time and realize the effort it takes to do it right. Currently restoring a 69 Mach 1 which was a one owner car. I am now following your channel.

I'm glad you're going all the way with it. That car is worth it.

Shoot man you going to get that thing so clean you're not going to want to drive it hahaha looking absolutely beautiful love them old Camaros God bless brother

Great job.

Nicely done, you have an awesome car and I good video. I just bought a 1977 Pontiac Firebird, the exterior, interior and engine are good but the undercarriage needs a lot of work.

Amazing work given the tight workspace. Love this build man!

well your doing a great job on everything its looking really great. your spending all the time repainting the underside, id certainly repaint the outside!

You definitely aren't afraid of a challenge . Your work is outstanding. If you are looking for quality brake and fuel lines, look into Inline Tube. I used their stainless brake and fuel lines on my 68 Galaxie ragtop. All perfectly bent with anti rattle springs in all the right places. Another great video

Wow, what a difference that made. Eventually I'll get to this on my 70 Chevelle I'm working on. Good work!!

As always Ryan, you’re doing a killer job! Keep up the awesome job!

You should really use encapsulating paint.Miracle paint is the best! No more rust ever! Paint it on wet rust and watch it last a decade without failure!! Bold statement but true!!!

Great Job! You cleaned it up nicely. With it having a numbers matching block and relativity low miles, I would keep it as close to factory as possible. I would just upgrade the driveability aspect. Things like rear disc, SS brake lines and hoses, poly bushing front, back and sub frame. Maybe electric fans and pro flo 4 FI. I would also replace the heater core and clean the air box, behind the firewall and lower front fenders really good while the inter fenders are out. That's where the Camaros rot.

Wheels look great! Undercarriage was in good shape - nice job cleaning it up (looks like new - incredible job actually).

Hey Ryan, you knocked it out of the park again. Floors are beautiful. I've said it before, much respect for your patient thoughtful approach. The finish line will produce a winner that you will be proud of. Would you consider powder coating the core support? I've done it on my inner fenders and core support on several of my car restorations and it really holds up nicely. Glad you have more garage space, however there is no such thing as a "big enough" garage! Stay safe and healthy.

Wow looks like it came out fresh from the factory! Keep up the awesome work man! 🔧👍

Just watched a video on KZfaq called how to make a wooden tip over jig. He made one for his camaro. That way you don't have to lay on the ground. You can safely tip it on its side just like a body/frame rotisserie.

The trim tag being screwed on is correct. I have a 79 sport coupe and it is exactly the same way and it is an original paint car. Vin tags are riveted on. Your doing a great job. The correct Chevy orange for the motor is less red than what was in your engine.

Looks great!

just found your Channel today love the Z28 series glad I found you.

I did a 83 chevy truck, but was lucky to do it on a lift. Looks great!

Rye is the total package, beautiful work!

Looking good Ryan, I enjoy your videos. My first car was a blue 69 SS Camaro, those were the day’s I tell you. Keep those videos coming young man, I’ll watch them.

Looks awesome. I wish the bottom of my 81 looked that good before painting!

Nice work Ryan. I've been there with my 95 Z28, and its no fun. But, your doing it right!

I have badges from my 73. I'll have to find them in my tool box, but they may be in better condition. If interested give me a holler and I'll send you pics. Looking great, can't wait to see the finally.

Pleasure-lift...I think those are factory shocks. I just purchased a Code 68 1973 Z-28! Awesome progress...

Car looks amazing !!! Great job in good hands 👍👍👍👍👍😎😎

Am totally impressed with what you have done:).

Dude you are an artist and a genius. I will be very interested to see if you have any parts left over when your finished. Great work.

Good job. U coming along good.

Big improvement, nice work Ryan!

Looking good Ryan

You looked like a coal miner covered in dust!! 😂 A rottissorie would have been easier but I seen someone build one out of plywood and wood frame then they just rolled the car on its side and restored and painted the under carriage..it was amazing to see a that done! You did a great job even though it was difficult to work under the car..looks amazing Ryan!! 😎👍

Dam brother, that looks cherry 🍒 Can't wait to see more. Stay safe and stay healthy 🙏❤

It’s fun to watch your videos man keep up the good work ✌️I’m new to your channel get hooked to it 👍

Looking Good! Cant wait to see more progress!

Dang man that RX8 is clean. They are really growing on me

Looks great man. I did the same thing to my 71.

Turned out great!

Nice Job Ryan!

tx bro

Looking good! Nice work.

Looks good

You should tape a flashlight to your paintgun so you can see coverage better. Good job.

I also wanted to let you know Gardner exhaust, make ,made in the USA, stock exhaust for that and ot sounds nice, it's all factory fits and looks great,did my 70 with it, well worth it

Good work man, looks good!

Great work!

Hi Ryan i think you should leave that big ulgy bumper off and put the split bumper on it will look killer trust me . You can always keep the original for whoever would buy the car from you . I think you would love the look. I wish I could show you some pictures of the one i built in the early 90ies 70 1/2 split bumper.

Know it is an old topic, may have been answered, but what are the numbers stamped on the right front of the Choke Horn of the Holley carb that was on the car that you did work to?

Looks amazing

Ryan, you definitely are doing it the right way, exactly how it needs to be done. You’ve probably doubled the life of the floor pans. I saw an engine block sitting in the floor somewhere in the video, is that the one from the Z28? I’m curious about how the engine build is going. I’m about as excited about the car as you are. lol Thanks so much for the update! I know Rome wasn’t built in a day but I can’t wait to see your final preservation!

Ready for a new video

Make sure you save those bumper guards!!

The project is looking great and love how you explain what your doing and how you're doing it. I look forward to the next update video. Also how do you remember where all the bolts go?? Do you have like a hundred little boxes with different ones in?? Keep safe mate.

Could you possibly do a video of the trunk key lock install for the camaro I can't find any content anywhere

Waiting for new video

when you get that done iam going to say your have at least a 40k to 50 k car, they dont go cheap,back in the mid 90s I sold my 70 Z28/RS for 19,995, guy didnt even try to get me down, I only payed 11,995 for it in 1993 ,didnt realy have to do alot to it, just took it to car shows and got it out on nice days, had 65,000 miles on it when sold

Norwood Camaro’s have the underside in red oxide and LA Camaro’s have black.

Waiting for the video for long time

bet your neck muscles were sore doing all the work under the best..but worth it..hope you and yours are all healthy during this effn crisis...

Looks awesome Ryan!!! Love it! What did you use on the rear wheel well areas for undercoating it? Rubberized coating?

Nice looking job! You think that was tough, try doing it outside on a gravel driveway! Lol

Ryan, that thing is mint. you hardly ever see one that original. it still had the axle tag on the rear diff. that very rare, they are usually discarded during a fluid change or if there was any work on the rear axles. those shocks are the old AC Delco Power Lift Air Shocks. the Camaros from that era sit low in the back. in the mid 70's to about the mid 80's the Funny Car look was really popular with hot rodders and those air shocks were a quick way to get that look. you could get them install at the dealership back in the day. however they also ride like crap. the aftermarket reproduction shocks are not bad, but if you want a quality ride QA1 makes a decent set of shock for them. QA1 bought the Performer AIS design for Edelbrock a few years ago. I have a set of the Edelbrock AIS shocks on my second gen and i love them. they made a world of difference in how the car handled compared to the cheap parts store replacements that were on it when i bought it. one other thing to note. that front bumper is original as well. In 73 the federal government increase the the standards for low speed impacts, so the bumper got a redesign, there is some extra reinforcement in the bumper and the front is a little more flat than the 70-72 bumpers. so it a one year only piece that was only used in 73. don't get rid of it or replace it with an aftermarket. it worth it to have it rechromed if it is rusted or pitted, rather than replaced. one last thing. all the 73 Camaros were built in Norwood Ohio. they used a red oxide primer on all the cars so the under side should be painted red oxide to be factory correct. personally i think the black looks better, but i figured i would share that in case you were going to try to maintain the originality of it.

I just realised whos camaro that was i wont say much but it was my great grandpas im glad its in good hands rip that shit once u finish it

lt's alot of work but coming along great.

Excelent results 👌,but...I have a cuestion,you are not thinking in sell it right??

Nice rx8 and wondering do you like rx7

What model # is your plasma cutter. thanks

hello ryan

So no need to sand under there just spray the rust encapsulator?

Better put som 4:10 gears in there brah!

i bet good money the camaro engine will outlast the rx8 one..

You had to put gas in the tank just to get it in garage? 😆 Camero is a pretty rust free undercarriage.

Are you going to sell the comaro when your finished with it

What happened to the Z ?

Good time to get rid of those vertical bumper guardy things.

Great work!!

Looks amazing
