Nothing is more permanent than temporary wiring that works.
it's only temporary if it doesn't work
💯
That car would be a daily driver for me. Yall do a great job and give low budget guys like me a reason to keep on working on my junk.
I was sleeping there for a minute (I'm old and prone to nodding off 😁) and I happened to have my headphones in and then you fired her off. I immediately jumped knocked over my coffee and nearly pissed myself! Now my ears are bleeding I'm deaf and still grinning like hell. She sounds pretty good!👍
As long as you didn't grease your skivvies should be good to go.
@@MC-re2ry 👍🤣🤣🤣
Haha that'll happen
Really appreciate you guys and all the extremely hard work you do. I've been watching you two for years and you always inspire me to keep going with whatever project or problem I may have. So happy you are going to get some land and look forward to seeing this next chapter. You guys rock!
😆🤣😂👌👍
Everyone needs a Dani always fun and positive 😊
F the naysayers. It's now a runner and has a future.
Definitely not junk! This would be an easy project to finish!
Brings back those old days when life was simple.these cars were always around .
Car sounds really good Dan. It’s in a good spot for the next owner. Another one saved and ready for some love. 👍😎✌️
good job saving another car keep them coming you two…….
Hey Kids, I ordered 2 Garage Hack Shirts. You gotta rotate the stock and keep fresh cars coming in. Saving these two Camaros is what Hot Rodding is all about. Great job. Thank you
Doing our best haha
@@DDSpeedShop just bought a batch of merch shirts and was wondering if there was going to be a repop of the original "is that DD Speed Shop??"black shirt with white lettering? my original is gettin' a bit ratty.
Your projects always makes a car better and easier for next guy to finish.
Sounds pretty darn good Dan!! Somebody is going to get a really awesome project car. You are the man, taking two left for dead, stripped down, disassembled and rotted out shells and turned them both into solid rust free running and driving project cars! I love what you do man. Don't listen to the naysayers, their just jealous.
Dan keep up the great work.That Camaro is a runner!😊
It's nearly there! Enjoying watching you save this cool old car.
That would make a good running driving project for someone,and will turn plenty of heads the way it is.I don't think you'll have a problem finding a buyer.
GOOD JOB U2!.... Screw the naysayers on the outer web!
Careful Dan, if you dont have the engine ground to the body the shift cable will act as one to its end...
Happy Camaro lives again
Dan bet your neighbors would pitch in for you a new place with that noise lol. Love your videos.
Another 1st Gen will live on.
awesome job on the camaro built on parts found .... wherever.... seriously, great job.
Yessir '. OLD mechanics tale. Never thoroughly clean your tool/s. Fear of being useless. Keep it oiled and never forget the day/night you were bonded...
I think the car sounds good. You have brought it a long way from the junkpile it was and made 2 decent cars. Have enjoyed the laughter you two have brought.
I worked for Hughes Aircraft from 79 to 89 as a quality engineering group head and one area I was responsible for was the wire harness assembly area. We used harness boards where all the wires were laid out. It’s a great way to keep track of which wire goes where.
Mid 60's GM cars that had an amp meter (vs voltmeter) had a #10 wire that ran thru the bulkhead connector going the the amp meter. in the dash. That connection often got over heated (fire worst case) with melted wires. That wire also fed the fuse panel and it was protected by a curicuit breaker mounted on the firewall above the distributor. I have converted my cars to a voltmeter so that I didn't have that fire hazard under the dash. Food for thought for future 60's projects. (77 year old hot rodder!)
I know you are doing daily videos to raise $ but I really like them! I appreciate the extra videos of your "hacker"y😂
Maybe get some hats with DDSS on the back of them also. Stitch it right into the mesh. Marc.
This car is just about good enough for cruising the car shows. You wont worry about someone walking past it too close or little kids touching it. Excellent job folks !
YES, the COUNT reference. lol Thanks for the entertainment once again.
Wooh dude, that hot rod's a runner. awesome. maybe we will see it move itself soon. Be well. Hi Dani.
It's looking good Dan. Thanks for the great editing Dani. 👍👍🇨🇦
Nice work. Getting her ready for her new home 👍🏾
My eyes are burning just watching all that exhaust in there......
Worth it
A lot of people have lost what cars are they don't need to be perfect just drive them and have fun
Dan you have inspired me to get back to work on a 1974 camaro, it doesn't need nearly this much work you make me look bad so im dedicating two hours a day tell it's ready to sell it will make a great drag and driver working on the engine at this time its been wired and plumed thanks
It’s a great looking project car.
Happy Camaro day! So glad this one is falling into place with mostly what you have already and with spares to pass on with the offer. I'll bet 90% of your detractors have never worked on a hot rod, never mind rescuing a pile of rust from a field as the starting point. The Camaros are well worth fine tuning at this point for the future owners and sinking more money into them would just become diminishing returns for projects you want to sell.
Dan Dan the magic man
It's amazing considering how it was win you started
Sounds good Dan and Dani
The count always knows Spark plug wires ! Lol. Great Car Video
Awesome job on getting it started and running . Running awesome indeed. Keep up the great work.
Valve train noise on driver side, header against the steering box? Lift the tranny, then maybe header won't touch the steering box. Your wiring adventure takes me back👍
Yeah u si t wrong
@@DDSpeedShop ?
For a cobbled together from junk parts car it looks and sounds great, a really good vase project for someone to finish off.
Simply amazing!! She sounds pretty good. Hopefully, the engine is a runner. That wiring work you did was cool to watch. Nice work, Dan. Cheers!! 😊
Once this one is SOLD we want another one, I make my point that since you started the Camaro's the Subs have gone up by 15k.
He's been putting out daily videos for the past few months to try to increase revenue. The increase in content explains the subscription growth more than the fact that he has a couple of Camaros.
I haven't figured out how you manage to work with parts and tools laying all over the fenders, cowl, core support, roof, etc. If I tried that, all that stuff would all wind up in the floor, or worse yet, down in the engine bay within minutes. I use trays to put stuff in.
Thanks for sharing this video with us
Nay sayers have likely not even turned a wrench. I used to, as a young teenager, build a flip cars out of my garage. Mostly newly junked cars that were complete but non running. I had a neighbor that was a drag racer and another that was a body shop Mgr. and a trans shop 2 blocks away (most of the vehicles were auto TH350's or 400's). My Mother was the biggest nayser, until the 4th or 5th car, that I gave her since she had warped the alu head on the Vega she had, so many times it was junk. In fact, that car also had a rebuilt in it that my brother and I installed, since she had done the same to the last engine. So, I found a Mercury Monarch with a 250 6cyl and a towing pkg. (big brakes, big rad). She still blew head gaskets because she would sit in bumper to bumper traffic with the AC full blast! I put a massive 4 core rad in and still had that head milled twice a summer for a couple years!! I'm pretty sure that the compression was close to 11:1 when I got her a late 80's Caddy that was built to abuse with AC!! LOL. Anywho, I had some goofy friends that would come over and say stuff like, 'Why you working on this POS?" or"that's never gonna run". Funny thing, they were also the same people that asked for help, when their POS didn't run!! ;)
Keep doing what you're doing, it makes me smile every time and it makes me glad I am no longer bending over hoods! LOL
Great video. Another runner.
The stock ign coil feed was below 12 v with a by pass from the starter. The HEI needs 12v .When you were poking wires the one below 12 might have been the coil wire and it would be around 9 v for point ign system .
Alright, alright, alright !!! The previous owner had it wired by Spaghetti Works Inc.!!! They used whatever color wire they had today; LOL !!! Master Tech Dan to the rescue !!! You got it figured out and She`s Making Heat !!! Rave - On Danni and Dan !!!
Haha thanks dude
Nothing but love and rainbows 🌈
Dude!!! Great video!!! Good job putting 2 Camaros back on the road!!! Hope you made a buck or 2!!!✌️
as our ol buddy Derrick would say...Bring the thunder!!!
Wow Dan I'm really impressed, Dan the Man. Way to go brother. 😎
Wood smoke... Imagine that...Living in Minnesota I can attest that Canadian forests are ALWAYS on fire!!
Take a victory lap guys.
You make runners out of what most people consider junk anyway. When you can bring something back from the DEAD and make it a runner that someone might be able to drive it daily, I call that a win.
I love it another one saved from the scrap man.
It's ALIVE!!!!.... It's ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!
Great job everyone loves open headers well except the neighbors 😅
Dan the burny smells is something you burnt in the past you get the ghost smells here or there. In the walls summer heating things up and smells you wanna forget come back.😂
She's a runner!!
MAYBE ... a live feed... in the Shop with DD SPEED... on DAN-TV.... I'd watch. 👍 🤘🤘
Thank you for the video I’m starting on my daughters 68 Camaro soon
If anyone ever needed a roll around cart, it's Dan. Lol
and a trash can
The car is saved and now a vision for the new owner better then the fate it had in the goat pen! List it soon for 20,000 and that’s a good chunk to a down payment on property!
Great work. Persistence pays off! As you said - from 0 to 2 running, rescued cars. That engine sounds snappy. 🇨🇦
Do you laugh at some of the comments, I sure hope so, l look forward to watching every day
Two more classic Camaros on the road....Yeeehaw!
That car wouldn’t be to hard to put back on the road for anyone who knows how to work on cars for me I would scuff it down spray some paint on it and fix the lights on it and drive it
Good morning from Cape Cod ⛵ the way I see it Dan is you took a couple of cars destined for the scrap heap and turn them into respectable runners. I'm sure you figured My First Love is a Camaro above all Chevys but we can't all like the same things. Variety is the spice of life. About how you look at it you do some awesome work Dan, and Danielle you're doing an awesome job videoing and editing 👍✌️🇺🇲🇨🇦
Great job! Sounds good , Keep up the good work!!!
Congratulations D&D. Another classic hotrod saved. You got it running on parts you had available. Not really junk parts that some are calling them. Using what you've got is what built the whole damn hot rodding culture. You mentioned some valve train noise on the left side. May be some header contact noise that might go away once you get the trans cross member bolted up. Love DD videos!
I dig the junk!
I can't believe how hard you make timing a small block I never had to turn the engine over to drop the distributor in
Rotor pointing at number 1 cylinder when number 1 is st TDC is the way to go.
A runner !!
Sounds great . List it FOR SALE .
These cars from the factory get power through the horn relay power comes from the battery to the horn relay, and then from the horn relay to the main fuse block on the car, took me a while to figure that one out
Cool I'd love to have that 68 or the 67 or any of your hotrods
Keep it up, great job!!!
Model A time
She’s a beaut Dan , man how many cars have you had total on your channel? Cheers 🇨🇦🇨🇦
First you imitate the count from sesame street, then jim buer from half baked. Talk about a wide spectrum. Nice!!!
Hey Dan&Dannie
Another great one and a huge Congrats! Thank you to both of you. Take care of Yourselves 😊
Great job your right it runs Worth more money now don't give it away
right on
42:53 my 68 is out front of the house 😂
NICE
A turtle in the creek and the turtle in the garage you're the turtlemaster. Now it's time to teach the turtle how to haul ass twin turbo time and keep it The nova and the Chevelle our family cars the Camaro has a potential of being the fastest car you own👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
My 69 Camaro 350 needed that metal plate under the carburetor to run properly
Grew up in Calgary (Forest Lawn actually...) and with two blocks there were a least 10 houses that great gardens. Fresh peas were my absolute favorite!
Motor sounds excellent. Again I’d drive the hell out of this car just the way it is
Huge win ..great video Dan and dani
Name the camara Hack Tua... lol. Love you guys.
You guys are Great fun to watch.
Is the metal cowl going to be installed on the car?
I couldn't believe you almost put your hat on the right way in the beginning of the video.
I will never understand why people even bother wearing caps when they wear them backwards.
I can see it in some instances but otherwise it just looks dorky. Sorry I'm just a grumpy old guy
that has been wearing hats for about 50 years, and I'm a little set in my ways.
Our son came home with his ball cap on backwards, one time LOL...
that smell is from your camera smoldering from all these videos you guys have been cranking out haha.happy 4th of july dan an dani
Good job Dan
Thanks for the video.
