Просмотров 6668 месяцев назад
Today I had my 1978 camaro media blasted to expose any imperfections and get down to the bare metal. What was underneath was pre-surprising actually pretty good metal. The next steps from here will be welding in the new 1970 to 73 trunk pan outer wheel wheel housings and then getting the rear quarters and new tail pan welded in for the conversion. I hope you guys enjoy if this is the kind of co...

What I wouldn’t have given to be your neighbor during this build. I restore cars but I own a media blasting business and would’ve been happy to strip that rust out of those hard to get areas 👍
its still going its just on pause right now cuz the heat here in texas! lol and that would have been sooo cool!
How much would you charge me to do my rear bumper conversion
honestly i’m not sure iv already got over 100 hours in it and it’s not done yet cuz it’s too hot to work on it and there’s a lot to it what year is yours? and how far are you wanting to go?
@@BSBuilt94 79 and I just want the back to look like the 70-73
@@D.OBullycamp it’s a lot of work you have to get full rear quarters to use just the ends other wise you’ll have bad gaps around the rear panel then you’d have to make a bumper bracket because the trunk is super different honestly it wouldn’t be super cheap or fast either way
@@BSBuilt94 how much you if I brought parts and you did labor and I know nothing “fast” when it comes to these old schools
@@D.OBullycamp well where are you located? and it would for sure have to be after mine was done which should be end of this year maybe into couple months of 2025 as for labor price if your wanting to do it the other way where you keep the trunk and rear back glass probably around $5500 to 6k? either way is a lot of work but there’s less to the short cut
hey what's the name of your front wheels on the last pic ? thanks
they are 5 lug chevy mag wheels
@@BSBuilt94 wow mate thanks !!!!!, i've been searching this for the past weeks xD i plan on buying this for my future camaro, thanks again !!!
@Paltryweasel no problem! happy to help!
I just did the same thing I made my 78 into a 70 lot of work but the end result is worth it good job man looks good 👍
thanks! do you have a instagram of fb you have it posted love to see how yours came out!
Looking good 👍
thank you!
Hey Brandon! Miss your vids man, hope all is well
the videos will be coming back soon. and all is well! thanks for keeping up!
LS7, more power, better mileage.
I thought about it but I didn’t wanna la swap it next one I do will be ls swapped
Lookin good!
thank you!
Man, you are doing some great work! I have a 70 Camaro and have done rear quarters, tail panel, trunk drops, firewall, DSE mini tubs, put in a Real Deal Steel tunnel, and raised the rear floors for exhaust. I had NOS quarter and AMD quarters and both fit the same except the area where the trunk drop welded was a bit different flange but fixable. It took me two years working on it on and off. I rosette welded everything but if I had to do it over I might also 3M panel bond as well as rossette weld. The key I found was the deck lid gap must be good. Another problem I ran into was during all of this the inner roof structure adhesive became unstuck from the roof and dropped about 1/2". Not sure why but all the body movement maybe caused it. Doing the firewall wasn't too bad, a couple tricks that helped was to make a tunnel shape plywood mold that I could jack up with a floor jack to push the bottom of the firewall into final position for welding and to weld a couple "hooks" that I could cable to and ran the cables back to the rear end with a ratchet strap and pull the rear bottom edge of the firewall to fully seat against the floor flange. Good luck my man, you will be done before you know it!!
how did you fix the roof adhesive issue? I don’t think i’ve had that but i’d love to know incase it were to happen!
@@BSBuilt94 I have not fixed it yet. I tried to use some panel bond and jack up the inner structure but could not clean the roof surface enough to get it to stick. The roof would have to come off to fix it right. My roof is perfect as is the inner structure too so I think I will leave it. The headliner might be an issue
Thanks for helping bro🫡🫡
No problem 👍
Great job. I've got a 81 and front end AMD parts are here already. I would love to do the rear
it’s been a task for sure but i’ll say doing it the right way compared to cheating out is definitely been the best way to do it
Starting the front end on mine (79), took me years to gather everything. The back will be my most challenging, along the sheet metal I’m doing a 4link and mini tub.
what are you doing to the front end? are you gonna do the 72 split or what style and yes the rear end is very challenging especially throwing a mini tub in the mix!
@@BSBuilt94 There are kits for 2nd gen for a 4 link, I’m actually going with an air instead of coil over. Rear is a 12 bolt I pick up at a swap meet, I will narrow and do some cutting and welding for the new suspension. Back seat will be modified for this set up. (Think of a daily/road course blend) all Wilwood brakes, 6piston up front, 4 in the back. Tubular upper and lower, 2” drop spindles, t56 tranny, super charged LSX (came out of my nova) I will be flaring the front and rear ( not the tacky wild flares, these will be metal) It’s funny, I bought the car in 1989 for 1500, went into the military for 35 years and I only drove the car 4 times. Still to this day it has 23k. I also own a 78 trans am I built in early 2000s, 89 mustang, 66 Chevy, 59 cadi, 65 VW bug w/ 289 small block, 86 Lincoln mark 7 (726 hp to the wheels) and a cobra kit car (hardtop) I’ve built everything myself and painted all of them. (Paid for interior)
@@BSBuilt94 sorry yes a 72 front end
wow man you have quite the collection!! and it sounds like yours is gonna be amazing when it’s done and seriously only 4 times!!! and thank you for your service I was in the army as well as a 12bravo! if you post videos on youtube i’d love to see those cars and this built camaro your doing!
and yes it’s just more desirable front end in my opinion
Wow!! Looks great, fitment, as you say is spot on! I am thinking of doing this to my 74 Camaro, it too like yours, started life with a inline 6 which someone stole?! I wound up with a 350 sbc installed in it, she is pretty heavy but I got close to 11 second quarter mile time out of her. She is currently awaiting her turn back in my shop for this update/upgrade... You are serving as a guide for me in this process so please include the cost for parts, this will give people like me an idea as to how much would be involved to do something like this. We Camaro guys know, that our labor comes from blood and sweat, but we pay for everything else to keep these ladies on the street or in car shows etc. Keep up the great work, patience is a big part of doing this kinda work. Keep on keeping on! Thanks and God Bless!!
absolutely I can include parts cost in a upcoming video! and I am in a small break right now waiting on parts and motor to come in! and thank you so much for following along! i’ll make sure to make the best content for you and everyone looking to do this job the correct way
74 was a one year only car. Find a easy to find 75-81 if you are going to cut it up. I know it is easier with the rear window being the same as a 70-73 But keep in mind the rarity of what you have. But in the end it's your call.i guess the 74 has grown on me the last couple years.
mine was a 78
Looking good
thanks! i’m ready to get the trunk pan welded in but still few things that need to be done first before that can be done!
Cool project. I’ve always loved the non-wrap around back glass on the 70-74 F-bodies.
same! absolutely love them!
One other factor to consider, if rust/rot has compromised the strength of the metal then by all means replace it. always error to the side of safety. In the case of an unforseen accident that matel is what is protecting you and you passengers. One again good luck and God Bless!
absolutely so far I know that it was covered and done correctly to protected no rust or rot around it so that was the best case was just the two holes.
Awesome! Just some welding, grinding, primer and on to the next. A grinder is a new welder's best friend. I love building these cars, I am working on my 4th one. Another thing to consider, if you are planning an LS install, is some frame connectors and renforcements for the body. I have built SBC strokers that have twisted the frame and body to where the doors didn't want to close properly. I wound up putting a square tube body cage hidden into the body, like a built in roll cage, I was still able to reinstall the interior panels to hide it all... Well have fun I will be checking in on your progress.... Good luck and God Bless... Take care
@cruzenforabruisen6368 I feel that lol i’m not doing LS this time around im doing a 383 stroker definitely doing the subframe connectors I was looking at the ones that you weld to the rear and that slide between the front sub frame what is your thoughts on that set? and it makes me happy that someone is invested into the progress it makes me want to keep posting videos along the way! thank you so much!
Hello The holes in the roof are small enough to arc weld shut, just watch the metal when you weld, do it in small burst, a few hours of hammer and dolly work will get your doors close enough to where a very thin layer of body filler or even high build primer will get them straight, just take your time and go easy with the hammering, I have done worst doors than this and got very good results. I used AMD and OEM stuff on mine. AMD is damn good for the money, as I am going to do a 73 build myself from 74 so I'll be watching as you build yours... Hope this help and good luck!
yes it does thank you so much! I appreciate it! I was thinking the same on doors the are the originals and I would love to keep them and i’m happy to hear that I should be able to get the roof holes fine! thank you so much!
About to start my 70 build process just got my rear tail light panel in. Then gotta order the Lt Rt full quarters and a few other things to pull it off.
are you doing trunk pan as well? and what year is yours? also I would say definitely go with AMD Sheet metal it’s been great fitment Call A2z vehicle parts to order and if for sure follow along with the build i’ll be posting tips I have for people that wanna do it the correct way and wanna tackle this job!
Nice! For the door I’d try to salvage them.
that’s what I was thinking as well considering they are the original and I see that aftermarket’s have such hard time fitting and bad gaps.
Bad ass!!!! 💀🤘🏻
More videos please.
video today! be on the look out!
Nice job!
thanks new video should be up today!

America!
I've been there and I hope you love it! You'll never get what you have in it out of it. 😎. Enjoy!
that is for sure lol it is a pretty penny but to me it’ll be the memories and priceless and my dream car! thank you!
Ive never seen one with that back window and taillights before. I tell you it looks good so far 🤟
so I bought a 1978 clean title and couldn’t find a good or rust free 70-73 and those are my favorite my dream car since 14 so got this one and just started doing full conversion it was a non numbers matching to start so that helped and wasn’t anything special but I appreciate it thank you! it’s come a long way!
"Promo SM" 😭
what?
Why tho could’ve kept the ss badging hood and changed the front bumper to the zl1 with SS badge that’s more like faking till your making a lotta cap going on
think what you want doesn’t effect me lol I was building it to be a zl1 for cheaper that’s why besides last time I checked it was my car and my money? lot of jealous going on here
had a 79 berlintta.the she mans camaro. but at 16 we made some great memories 25 yrs ago. it wasn't factory had some cosmetic and engine work done.
the 70-73 camaro has really always been my favorite but to find one with a title and not chopped up or parted out or just ruined is almost impossible unless there 80,000$ so I got a base and doing my conversion fully we will see how it goes doing a 350 build and 200 4r trans
The paint match is off tho
it was a slight bit yes but in person you couldn’t tell
Lower it. And put the oem zl1 wheels on
I no longer have it I have a second gen i’m redoing now
More to come let me know if you wanna see videos of me restoring the car my plan is to convert it to a 70-73 camaro rs join for the journey like, comment, subscribe for more videos :not my song all copyrights to luke combs
This is awesome video! Could you link where I could get the Zl1 door panels?
I got mine from ebay actually.
This help me so much🥰🥰!!! I was struggling 😰😰
i’m happy I could help!
How did you put the Chevy emblem on the after market bumper
How much you pay for the paint
I paid for 1 quart can of base and clear 2 stage about 180$
why’d you emblem swap
it was debadged after everything was done
Bro just buy a zl1 😂 zl1 bumper i get it but cmon now the ZL1 badge on an SS? Up badging hard asf.
I no longer have the car anyways lol I did it because at that time it was cheaper to buy the parts for zl1 and do full conversion motor included and was going to build motor but sold it and my 2017 duramax for a 2023 midnight edition. duramax next build will be that and then after that will be the cadillac cts-5
also that was a real zl1 hood on my ss and I debadged it shortly after because I wasnt trying to pretend to be a zl1 it was clear to see it was a 2ss
Nah bro i feel you i have zl1 bumper on my 16 ss but i seen so many v6s in texas with a zl1 badge it pisses me off lowkey😂 although it does look good i mean its a zl1 who wouldnt want one right?
I feel you on that there are a lot atleast mine was a 2ss I was gonna buy the zl1 too ported and polished and pull motor and trans and completely rebuild both with forged gpi internals but I just was tired of it at the moment and decided after I got married i’d sell it and sold my truck to get my 23 brand new duramax i’ll end up getting a supercharged cadi tho blacked out and that’ll be the new content
Badge or bumper? I didn’t see a ZL1 badge
Very informative video, thank you! The door light trim, is the light in the gray part or in the door?
the light is intergraded in the door I believe behind the grey plastic
I need a new bumper soon. Is this one good or great quality?
I had no issues with it only think I did was use my original upper grill and cut out the chevy logo to make it a flow tie like zl1 without having to pay a lot for the real one
What company did u get the bumper from
I got it from ikon motor sports
Where you bought the hood from
Where did you get the zl1 hood
Awesome video! If only I had a Camaro to use this knowledge with 😂😂😂
lol right!
lol you were spinning the entire time. no stock v8 maro is gonna do around 2 second 0-60. it’s just not gonna
Ur right
who said it was stock?
ooohhffff no good
Have the same problem in my scat bro can’t catch traction lol
I need a better rear tire lol

That’s so funny!!
