We saw this magnificent 2nd gen Camaro with its supercharged LS7 at Supercar Sunday and knew we had to shoot it! The paint/body and fab work is flawless and even if you're tired of seeing LS motors you gotta appreciate a dry sump supercharged LS7 in my opinion so sit back and enjoy the ride...

This is a reason why usually good builders would drive the cars they build for a couple of hundred miles before delivery to make sure everything works perfectly. So these things, especially for restomods, are natural for them to "break down" like this. Find weak links, fix them, rinse and repeat until she's completely dialed. It's part of the process. If people complain, they can always go ahead of build their own cars.

That’s right. Even Singer Porsche puts 300 miles on every car and they’re not doing 1 off builds

@paulcrocker4553 4 ай бұрын

Every reputable builder will shakedown the build for a few hundred miles.

@BIGGELATO 4 ай бұрын

@@AutotopiaLA yup! Also, Roadster Shop, 500 miles. I believe Revology too. It's essential, and a no-brainer. It's reassurance. Always gotta put the miles on a new build to insure they are properly dialed, this also means pushing them to their limits!... Nevertheless, great build this one. Definitely worth the asking price, but once dialed in.

@matrox 4 ай бұрын

Sounds like the builder wasn't enthusiastic about doing the build anyway...complaining about stuff he didn't want to do and it still takes him 10 years to do what he did and it breaks down with 50 miles on it. I would be pissed. And it breaks down during a video shoot.

A 2nd Gen Camaro is and always will be one of my favorite muscle car's so I'm glad to see that this guy did this car justice by really paying attention to detail, like putting that stripe under the hood and on the firewall, the modifications to the bumpers even a carbon fiber nose and much more. I will say I was a little disappointed we didn't get to see him burn some rubber and let us hear the roar of that badass Supercharged LS7, but common sense prevails. I just hope when or if it does sell we get to see the new owner take her around the block and let that Magnuson supercharger eat and kill some tires while we listen to that badass engine sing the song of our people!!!💪💪💯💯💯
