In this episode, we travel to South Carolina to rescue a forgotten and abandoned 1969 Chevy Camaro. Chevrolet's answer to the Ford Mustang, the first generation Camaro has become one of the most sought after pony cars in the world, and now we have one! After being neglected for years, and changing owners several times we decide to give it a real home. It's bad folks, real bad, and its time someone gave this iconic muscle car the love and attention it deserves.
Follow along with ‪@hammersgarage‬ as we begin this restoration journey!

The wheels are weld wheels made by Craiger. I sold the car to the person Issac brought it from. It came from Girard, Ga.not Waynesboro.

WTF is a "Craiger". Dumarse comment.

You are 100% correct about those ketchup packs, I’m always saying the same thing. 69 looks like a cool project, show it some love.

@selbster1726 7 ай бұрын

Like most projects you might end up calling it "Money Pit". But unlike many project cars finished 69 Camaros are like gold... Enjoy the journey!

@sublime929 5 ай бұрын

That's a cool find. Already has some go fast parts on it, got really lucky with the 12 bolt. The wheels are Welds, just have Cragar center caps.

I'd call it 'IRA', because that is where all my money would be spent! Congrats on the new project. Looking forward to this series.

I'd call it "mine". 🤣Looks like a fun project even with the floor pan sheetmetal work you have ahead of you. The only problem I see will be living up to everyone else's expectations. People get weird around these more popular cars when they see other folks doing things they don't "approve" of. Brings back memories of my first project that I hauled home from central Georgia near Forsyth. The trip and the comments from folks who saw it on the trailer made the effort worth it.

Hey internet cowboy you pointed to the totally wrong area for the vacuum line penetrations in the firewall. You don't even know the important points to show on film. I have obsessed and owned 31 Camaros since 1979 in high school. It's all i know, my first love. I left all the other cars to everyone else. Now I can not even afford a project because of stupid people like this who are in it solely for the money and not the love. I can't help but think about all the people you fked over in life to get to where you are today. Karma is an unavoidable beatch though.
