we built 2 cars, #70 and #90 I won the SCCA world Challenge championship in 91 and 92 in these camaro race cars. We also finished 1-2 in the 24 hour of Mosport in Canada in the SCCA world Challenge series.
these cars both have 100% of our innovations that we designed for the Camaro Market with LG Motorsports.
It was an AWESOME car, Lou!
I love RUclips lol
Hey Lou.. What are the engine modifications??
you must be happy to see one resurrected, champion cars should be preserved
You should put a 2jz swap
Dang that thing looks like a lot of fun! Glad you’re bringing it back from the dead and are putting it to good use! And making money for a great charity!!!
When r u two doing a collab... like we had carthrottle but now i need a full send project from two of the best youtubers... or maybe a youtuber competition?
Dang,chrisfix show your face
@ChrisFix ,
Agreed!
And I agree with @Abdul-haqim Juneja . It would be awesome to see you and Freddy, and maybe Jared, film a joint project.
I enjoy watching your channel, too!
Reuben, I think he's Freddy's twin...lol
Hey guys chrisfix is here
Thanks Jared we actually got to see a project finish this year.
Love Jared being in the show.. Such a cool and fun guy
agree 100%.Jared is THE most funny guy ever lol
Seems like a really nice genuine guy.
Deffinetly 👍😁
Tavarish: get me the fire extinguisher, little does he know he’s in the most reliable car he owns
😂😂😂😂😂💀
Agreed 👍🏽
fact. as long as they didn't put gear oil in the T5 instead of ATF.
@@po3185 lol mine was ok with gear oil till I talked to a gearbox specialist and tried atf
PO the t5 isn’t ok no matter what you put in it lol
JARED IS THE MAN, YOU SHOULD CONSIDER BRINGING HIM ON THE SHOW MORE OFTEN
Jared should his second for the Wrench Everyday
Just bring him full time! He is a great asset and the chemistry is amazing
Only time anything gets somewhat done is when someone else helps. Can’t An don’t even want to watch this complete video.
How about finish one of your other 100 cars before starting another project
@@mattkelly5829 I'm sure he has his reasons man, life isn't easy for anyone think about how much he's sunk into the F&F lambo. That'll set anyone back a bit
Jared's mind set is awesome. Everything is not that hard.
It really isn't.
Loved the tribute at the end!
RIP Jessi, you will be missed.
Who is Jessie?

I've been looking for that car for years. Its was one of.my favorite race cars from back when I was driving autocross courses throughout south florida. A few years ago PBIR open a road race course and I retired from FedEx and told my wife I needed to find this car and start road racing again as a hobbie. But I'm not mad at all in fact I'm so happy with what.you have done here that I feel its.going to have a better life right where it is. Thank you for sharing this video with us because this one means so much to me. God bless and keep all.four on the ground..
That car is 1 of 62 made in 1990 if its a true 1LE.. pretty rare.
Camaro Rick and he sold it for free almost what a morron!
@@toniakdemir It was for charity not for profit
Keshu Kush maybe so but still, a car like this can go for atleast 10k or more, the money he get can go for charity, mo money for charity u know :)
Just because it's rare doesn't mean its valuable.
@@toniakdemir It's good that he sold it this way. If he sold it for auction, it would've lived a sad life in someone's garage as a collector car

When I FIRST started this I thought "man, he really needs Jared...." Sooo glad he came to help!!!
This is my favorite build so far. Just an old school, bare bones, white knuckle beast of a car.
I like Jared. He needs to be around more often. ;)
A lot more often!!
True... Its awesome to have someone who knows their way around an engine bay! Not to mention, how to do the needed fixes on vehicles such as "bleeding brakes".... And as nice as it was to see the car be sold for charity, It'd have been the best if Tavarish had strait up given Jared the car since he essentially did all the work on it. You could tell that Jared was doing all that work because he truly thought that the car was something special. I mean, if you had to pay a mechanic to spend 2 twelve hour days sweating in a garage in July in florida of all places, It'd cost more than the $1500 that was originally paid for the car.
What the fuck would tavarish do without some kind of help? Nothing. He's fucking awful.
Jared! Jared! When you need to seal the deal, what does she say? "You went to Jared"
agreeeee
Is that Bentley welded to that lift? Never seen it move!
Yup came from the factory like that
Yes
Make the lift stronger since it keeps lifting... Tavarish Training Center
Yea it was an excuse to keep it told the customer “it just happens”
It's epoxy.
Has 2 lifts.
Puts car on jack stands to work under it.
International law states you must place a bently on a lift for at least 6 months before working on it.
I was thinking same thing clear the lift get yourself off the floor
RUclips law!
@@mmonkeyman1403 😂😭😂😭😂😭😂
Sometimes its easier to do stuff on the floor.
P.S. Thank you STP for your sponsorship! Love to see our favorite do it yourself car guys get some love! Thanks for your charity support as well!
Glad they contributed more than just money (even as important as that is in itself).
Gotta respect a company that lets its products speak for itself!
i caught that Ace Ventura reference "it gets a little hot in these rhinos" 13:53
Came here for this comment. Was not disappointed. Good job.
Best Tavarish video ever. Your friend Jared is pure gold. This video is so wholesome, I'm gonna miss that Camaro. I want one so bad but those didn't sell here in Argentina.
Who else loves American racecars of this era?
80s camaro looks mean.I really like its forms.But like a racecar it's on another level of awesomeness.Really like it's rawness,nothing fancy,just a roll cage and striped body with straight pipe V8,with slicks tires.Pure racecar.Really like the analog gauges.Not like todays cars which look a like computers on wheels.And that comes from 27 years old.I guess i was born in the wrong time.
Jared is the guy you want to help with any build, especially for comic relief!
What an amazing car. New rule, when I say we should we do it. No more "should be oks!"
Tavarish needs to have you full time to help him finish his projects.
@Jared Pink ,
Why don't you ask Freddy to shoot some video with you, to post up on your channel? That would be great to see! You guys work well, together.
I also enjoyed the Supra Build video. Great stuff!
@Jared Pink 😅
Tavarish videos are almost unwatchable without Jared, who kinda looks like Timothy Olyphant. Jared's diagnostic explanations are fun.
@ I believe he is going to start being on the Wrench Everyday channel regularly.
car: has Goodyear decals
Freddy: puts Toyo tires on it
Toyo is shit
Your right toyo shit
God DAMN Jared knows how to drive!
Thats no way to talk
@@RVPickles god damn god damn god damn god damn god damn god damn
It's July in Florida but September all around the world 😂
Florida's a strange place amiright! lol
Haha usually here in Southern California it’s also scorching hot all until October but right now it’s in the 60s at night and mid 70s at day. Gorgeous right now! I bet next week it’ll be 98 tho lmao
80-90 Here in Puerto Rico, but its going to 70-85 soon
True story and we are getting a tropical storm this weekend
It has been 95 degrees here in West Virginia and haven’t had any rain in 3 weeks
Bro Jared is literally the MVP
@LUCKYDUCKY 62 gaaay
@LUCKYDUCKY 62 you say it like it's a good thing lol
Jared looks like a seasoned racer with that shifting face
Jared's not. He doesn't know how to properly side step a car to get it to burn out. What he did to that poor clutch in that video should be a crime
Waited for so long for another Tavarish video and here I am watching a movie
Love the for Jesse at the end RIP Jessy fastest woman on Earth
She sucked.
Love how the no spill nozzle makes everything 100% more dangerous
I never watched a 1hour video on RUclips but today is history
the good guy also, did not leave dissapointed at all 😁😁
Skipped thru a lot .
Fredddyyyyy. They make rubber feet for your jack stands so you don’t have to use card board to protect your beautiful floors
"If you dont have this key, you can't start the car" - It surprises me how little ppl know about this. That's not a 'chip' in the key, it's a simple Resistor. I've had to bypass plenty of these, The TINY Wires will fail, they go from the anti-theft, & up the steering column to the ignition and make Contact with the RESISTOR in the Key. If you ever lose the key/resistor, Just bypass it at the Anti-Theft junction with the approriately sized resistor. You can look that up easy peezy. OR MEASURE IT RIGHT NOW WITH A MULTI-METER. No need to be scared, it's just Basic Electrical. I reccomend Bypassing that system ASAP. it's a HEADACHE.
I definitely would have enjoyed seeing you do more with it, but you have plenty of projects, and at least you got that sweet burnout at the end!
You know you are going to have fun watching the video.
I’m from Europe, and man do I love that sound! That is just the sound of raw power and confidence. Sure it will give a swirl in the fuel tank, but what joy does it deliver! One thing I still think is strange: Why this terrible flat angle in the steeringwheel? The 90 degree angle would give so much more ergonomics. Great buy Freddy, have fun!
Been almost thirty years but I swear I saw this car race at Watkins Glen back in the day. It’s the checkered livery on the back that I remember. They ran the long course too which is a lot harder than the short course the Nascar boys run . Thanks for the memories.
:please dont break my car..."
jared's brain:okay imma gonna full send it
The “Old” Roadkill would have jumped at the chance! Show business ruined that chance. It would have been a killer colab and build.
Always nice to see people actually respect the importance of preventative maintenance.
You can get a gm key kit with all 12 or 20 chips they only had 20 different chips. You can multimeter the good key and match it to one of the blanks and cut it and it should work great. Did this on my c4 vette
@@ScrubRadius Exactly, measure the resistance and solder the right resistor in the wire and no more BS.
The PATS (Passive Anti-Theft System) is pretty easy to bypass with a multi-meter and a resistor. IIRC it’s the yellow wire.
jared feels like a nice guy and dont feel shy on the camera👍👍
I like how Jared properly drives
It's about time you got a Camaro! (BTW, the manual transmission would break when it was mated with a larger engine. That's why the automatic version has a larger engine.)
He’s the guy on Forza that makes the bar finds working
All 3rd gen manual V8 were 305. The T5 trans was not rated for the torque output of the 350tpi engine, hence those are all 700R4 / 4L60e.
305s these years were available with a Tuned Port Injection (TPI) or Throttle body injection (TBI). Last Carb was 86/87 in the 305. I have a 86 Trans Am with the LG4 305 4bbl carb......well, it's a 355ci now but originally was 305.
Damn
700r4. They never offered the 4l60e
@@chunkyboiz931 your right......just most people associate the two.
Around 90/91 if I recall GM started to standardized their transmission names and the 700R4 became 4L60. 4 for 4 speeds, L for longitudinal (rear wheel drives) and 60 was a number for how robust. The 'e' came in the 4th gen as I recall with the electronic shift solenoids added.
@@mikz86ta1 wasnt called 4l60e untill after 92
@@chunkyboiz931 right....as I said, 4th gen
"not a ton of power stock - 230hp (ish)" then there is us in the uk running round in 70hp Vauxhall Corsas thinking we are hard as nails XDXD
andrew bailey At the same time though, you can get 230hp out of a 1.9l tdi here, and Alfa Romeos were getting 190hp out of 3L back then in an era where American cars were so strangled to death by emissions equipment that it took them 5.7L to make 190hp
Welcome to America.
1.2 sxi 74bhp corsa, pushing my luck every time i shift into 3rd going up a hill😂😂
Assuming the engine is a 350 it would be a L98 stock they made about 240Hp but they put down a good 350 Lb/Ft of torque due to the long intake runners giving the air more velocity air velocity = torque
andrew bailey Lol! The BIG 70 club ehh??
Now:Please don’t break MY car. 10 minutes earlier: OUR race car. 🧐
Freddie was born in the USSR
I appreciate the ace ventura joke freddie 👍
it's so ironic that the "safety" gas cans spill gas everywhere and are a pain to use
lmao forreal and the funny part is if you keep the top for it you can store it safely
do the safety gas, yes its safe to gas, you can gas if you want to
They are not "safety" cans for using...they are "safe" for preventing spills if tipped.
@@michaelwerbick they arent "safe" for anything lmao
They're supposed to keep vapors from escaping and igniting in an enclosed space. But yeah they keep gas from coming out without dribbling all over.
I feel really bad for Jared. He really looks like he wishes he had bought this car and it was his. And if it was his he would totally share it with Freddy but since it's Freddy's he has to keep hearing "Don't break MYYYYYY car" and the poor guy feels like a stepchild barely allowed to play with anything. SMH 🤣🤣
Babayega X Freddy is the dude that nobody likes
If It were me I would have given it to him
It classic car should be in the museum idk how freddy getting all the money
Jared fix my car! DoNt bReAK mAh CAR!
@@Genshin-w2w not really a classic. Ita not on the same level of racing as a 69 charger Daytona per say. Still a damn good car that I would love to own
that motor never took 5w30. The dealership when new shipped them with 10w30 and most racers ran 10-40.
Also the "chip" on the key, is not called "a chip on the key" that's the GM "VATS". (Vehicle anti theft system) the chip is just a resistor, I won't post the values but you can easily google the entire list of values for that key, order a resistor online with the correct value, do a little solder job under the dash and get a plain cut key. The VATS system is a tricky beast, if the right resistance is not detected the car will crank, and it will fire for a moment then shut down, but that's only because the fuel pump always primes, VATS prevents the fuel pump from being on in the run condition. I have had a LOT of customers over the years bring in VATS vehicles on tow trucks from other shops because techs really didn't understand how it worked and could not properly diagnose it.
If that is a factory manual 1LE then the motor is a LB9. If it was shipped auto then it could be either LB9 or L98. the VIN can be decoded to tell you the motor type. if it decodes to an L03 it was not a 1LE.
I myself had an 89 1LE, I loved that car, and it ended up saving my life. I got rear ended on the freeway at 60mph by someone trying to get me to race them, I was heading to work and not having it, so he attempted a fly by and traffic came to a halt. He tried to get in behind me and nailed me dead on in the drivers rear quarter panel and 1 spun 7 times before jumping the divider and going into oncoming traffic. The car was toast. Hood was gone, rear window was gone, all 4 rims were shattered, seat was broken, steering wheel was folded like a taco. I didn't have a scratch on me. Not even a seat belt bruise. Then when I jumped out of the window, because the door was folded, I rolled my ankle LOL!.
Mine while built to be a race car, was delivered to a guy in texas and daily driven, until he passed away, then his daughter drove it until the VATS resistor key failed and it wouldn't stay running. I bought the car in the early 2000's for $800.00 then I threw almost $4k into it the first month I owned it. I had the L98 350 CID motor in mine backed by a 4L60. (can't wait for the 700R4 know it alls to jump in and tell me I had one....., but I had a 30 spline input and a pinned flare with o-ring so no it was not a 700R4, and no I'm not confusing it with a 4L60-E, that's a totally different beast.)
That tuned port setup makes AMAZING torque from off idle up to about 4kRPM then it falls on it's face. If you want to wake that motor up, look into the holley stealth ram intake for it. Lose some bottom end but make up for it with wild gains around 5k RPM.
Also ditch the stock ECU. I don't think anyone still has the ability to burn chips for that antique. That motor is batch fire fuel injection, despite what many will try and tell you. Just look at the wiring diagram, there is not 8 injector drivers :)
You can convert it pretty easily to SFI with standalone ECU and some new wires.
I didn't see a center console so there is no way to verify the RPO codes and you CANNOT decode the vin to find out if it was a 1LE or not, you must have the RPO codes, unless GM can get you a copy of the label based on the VIN.
being a 1LE owner almost 20 years ago felt like being a member of a secret society, very very few people knew what one was, until the new camaro came out with the 1LE package. When you try telling someone you owned a 1989 1LE that was just one of only 111 ever made, compared to the thousands they made now, they look at you in complete disbelief.
Still one of the best handling cars I EVER owned, and I have owned more than most people who say they have owned a lot..... Hope it serves you well... if it is a true 1LE you need to hunt down the RPO label, and go road course racing with it.
Bob.....He sold it to a race team. Did you watch the end of the video?
I'm not reading all that shit.
@@darrelldarrell1447 😁
That motor does use 5W30 my c4 corvette has that same motor and the manual states 5w30
Because it has been determined 2 b a past race car, I would bet it's a real 1le. If I recall right, an aluminum driveshaft would be a quick confirmation
Why can’t we third gen nuts ever find cool stuff like this? Lol. I love the video!
Always seem to be that way i would love that beside my 83 z28 in the garage.
Seriously! I would have killed for that car with that pedigree.
Not a race car, but I was able to find a nice clean 91 with a 350 swap in it just about as cheap as he got this car. I just used all my lifes luck finding the right car.
Worst cars ever
Patriot Pat not even close to that.
This is a car you shouldn't have sold it is priceless
I was thinking same , in 20years it will be worth more then any of the other exoticrap
@@chuckchar probably allot more fun. no electronic crap just a raw V8, RWD, and a manual transmission. she's raw, she's untamed. NOPE he never should have sold it.
Everything has a price. That price is whatever it sells for
@@HAMMER8181 I'm always amazed at what people think something is worth versus what it's actually worth. And everything is worth exactly what you paid/sold it for.
@UCFnfA6LJSVF40BlP_9ljMbA bingo. Whenever i buy something private i make a rational argument on how i came to my offer and its usually enough to get the seller down a bit. On the flip side if its a deal i dont haggle whatsoever. The hardest things to buy are original owner anything. Sentimental value is a motherfucker
3rd Gen Camaro's are so timeless! Great video, sad to see it go!
Coolest car since the old beat up Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4. Great video
I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m putting together my uncles 1LE Camaro I roc. It has 44k miles on it. He gave it to me as a graduation gift before he passed away and I’ve been lost trying to put it back together. It was hard to look at for 2years. However, it’s almost done. All I have left is the maintenance you do before you turn the car on after it’s been sitting. So spark plugs, fuel pump, new gas and all new fluids.
Sweet old school racer. And many thanks for gifting your money to the charity. Kids should have freedom, foundations like these give kids who don't have it at least some. Thank you
My first car was an 87 Camaro for $350. Reverse & 1st was supposed to be out but it just needed Gear oil then it shifted just fine. It had a carbureted 305, 5 speed, posi, headers. I think someone forgot to add gear oil when they replaced the clutch. So it was a steal for $350.
Out of all the videos I've watched of yours so far, this has been my favorite series. Getting that old champ back going after years of neglect was awesome, and I love that the care returned the favor for you guys
Thank you so much for Jessi memorial at the end, that means the world to me and all her fans and family!
That'll be the best Tavarish video yet. Great work.
Richard Baker absolutely amazing video I have to agree
Jared and Tavarish's relationship is so pure 😻 I wanna be friends with them!
Ikr! Shit I'll wrench for him for minimum wage and a car of my choosing 😂😂
Dude this is an amazing vehicle. Thank you for bringing it back to life

Favorite car you own!!! It is about time you shared this.
It's not like I had anything planned tonight, but I guess I'm watching a one hour tavarish movie !
El Pepito also, did not leave dissapointed 😁
It was really nice to see you guys bring a grand old lady back to life. Well done.
This car needed love and HOT DAMN did you give it, makes me smile seeing it run and shine like it came off the factory line.
Rest in peace Jessi!
my buddy had a non-l1e version, and his was the 5.7 TPI, I'm telling you that thing absolutely hauled ass. high revving strong, feels like LS horsepower. you're going to love that thing.

Just gotta love the third gen best handling car of it's time
I hated them back then, but a few years ago I came across true little old lady 1 owner 91 GTA with 71,000 miles on it that I couldn't pass up. I towed it after it was in a minor accident and the sheister body shop tried to pull a fast one getting it totaled claiming it was worth about $1,500-2,000. As soon as I dropped it off the guy said it was most likely totaled but he'd "help her out and buy it for $5-600 for parts". It needed a door(was fixable), fender and headlight assembly and some paintwork on the hood. It was far from totaled. She swerved and clipped the fender pushing it into the door a little. But because it was a old 3rd Gen the adjuster never came out to look at it and he sent the insurance company a pic from a different rusted out heap. So I bought it off of her instead of letting the shop get it and they were PISSED. It was well known around town and dealer serviced from new and had EVERY record. It even included the window sticker and paperwork from the SLP package she had installed. It had the SLP dealer installed intake,stainless exhaust/ Tri-Y headers, tune and brake package. I didn't know about the SLP stuff till she gave me 25 years of paperwork for the car and I felt guilty for giving her the $2500 I did for it. The SLP dealer installed stuff was over $12,000 on top of what she paid for the car. But the car is amazing and I intended on flipping it but after driving it I completely changed my mind about the thing. Even the color the guy at the dealer called "Mandatory Maroon" has grown on me.
@@southjerseysound7340 yea I have had my 1992 25th anniversary coupe 305 auto black with grey int since 1996 and love it more and more everyday. Wile that is a a good thing in some ways, others is what I will do to myself if I ever wreck her, or how mad I will be at the person if they crash into me 😠and total her. I have spent my life working on cars so I can fix most things but if it's beyond what man can do I will cry like a baby 😭. I would cry either way but a fender bender I know I can fix, so only a light wound on my soul.
Where did you find Mr. Jared??? Man knows his stuff. What a pleasure to watch you two work. Nice superpower team up.👍🏿🔥👍🏿🔥👍🏿🔥👍🏿
Shouldn't have taken off the 'rent me' should have just replaced the R and the T with S and D. lol
CrosslegLuke
Lmao
Send me
That's original...
Nice touch at the end Freddy, appreciate everything you do. Cheers
This is a dream to me, I've always loved these cars. My first car was a 91 model and I looked for years to find a 1le. Very very cool.
"I won´t give it ANY power!"
proceeds to give it power
THAT´S MY MAN
We all saw it coming hahahah
$1500!! What a sweet 3rd gen.
You got one hell of a deal on that car! That was a high dollar camaro back in the day and the tuned port injection with a 5 speed is hard to come by not to mention those rear disc brakes. That is one hell of a machine
"It is July in Florida..."
*checks current date*
Well I don’t think you checked Florida’s calendar 🤷🏻♂️
Every month is july in Florida
Subframe connectors are a mandatory on 3rd gens. Better traction and way better turning.
Ray m.......It was an SCCA winning car! I will guarantee it has or at one time had all of the best handling parts available at the time. Subframe connectors are only just a start when road racing one of these.
Everyone needs a friend like Jared. Good job being responsible with the whole cleaning out the gas tank thing.
Totally should have kept it.
I agree
Yepp
He's not going to use it that much, and the money of it is donated to a charity which is awesome.
If you glue the chip to the ignition barrel you can use any standard cut key
Nice i loves fixes like this
Doesn’t work on gm passkey. It’s a resistor and there are two contacts inside the ignition barrel. You can wire a resistor in-line. Use a multimeter to get its value. 1$ resistor and a couple butt splices.
My dad used to pit crew for John kanouse who happens to be Chad kanouses dad (Nascar crew cheif Chad kanouse) always been a Chevy guy and I thank you for showing this beautiful car the love and attention she needed 🙏
You dont have to worry about losing the key quite so much. That "chip" is actually just a resistor. They started putting them into Corvettes and Camaros in 1989 and called it VATS (vehicle anti theft system). Basically the ECU reads the resistance of the key and if the resistance is correct, the starter will engage. There were only 12 resistance values that were ever used and you can splice the correct value resistor into the wiring harness and the car will start without issue. There are charts to tell you which resistor values were used. I had a couple of these cars where the contacts in the ignition cylinder went bad. Splice in a resistor, and poof, the car starts every time you turn the key. In all I've owned 7 of these ranging from 1982 up to 2001 model years.
Also, if that is the original motor, it will be a 305. GM never mated a 350 to the 5 speeds for two reasons. 1: A 350/5 speed combo would have almost been as fast a Corvette, which we know GM could never allow. 2: The clutches of that time period were rumored to be incapable of handling the torque from the 350 TPI motors over a longer period of time, so warranty replacements would have been required more frequently.
Its almost a shame that car was gutted and raced. It's one of only 289 1LE's built in 1991 with the LB9 (305 TPI). The 1LE package was decent, but not a super car. Special baffled fuel tank with swinging fuel pickup to prevent starving in corners, aluminum drive shaft, AC delete, dual piston front aluminum calipers, 11.86 inch front rotors, and a factory "performance' exhaust which was good for 5 hp over the regular Z28 exhaust. What makes the 1LE so special now is the rarity of them, especially the 1988 and 1989 models as they had extremely low production numbers (only 4 made in 1988)
THE CAR IS A 1992 NOT A 88 OR 89 I HAVE A 88
@@lovetruthandlight6392 Actually, going back and rewatching the video, he states that it is a 1990 0:34 ... which made it even more rare than if it were a '91. In 1990 only 34 1LE models were made with a 305.
@@glitchworks5957 The emblem on the dash is 1991 only. You were correct the first time. He must have been going off the build date because nothing is correct for it being a 90 model.
@@ynk1121 yeah, you're right. I should have paid closer attention to the yellow gauges. Its either a 91 or 92 based on that alone. Not sure why tavarish said 90 since I would think the vin and/or title would state the correct year. Probably just him mispeaking slightly.
I've owned a 1990 for over 16 years now so it's easy for everything that's different than my car to jump out at me. Those gauges are actually the same for 90. It's a strange year. 1990 has the inside like 91 and 92 but the outside looks like 88 and 89. That dash emblem is a dead give away it's a 91 because it was only used that year. The 90 emblem has IROC written small under it. In 92 they added red writing under it to commemorate the 25th anniversary. The outside is completely wrong for 90. Those ground effects, hood, rear spoiler, are correct for 91 and 92.
They are claiming something that doesn't even exist. While the IROC and Z28 were two separate packages in the earlier years, starting in 1988 the Z28 RPO code became the IROC package. So there are no 1990 Z28s. Only IROC-Z28s. Due to losing the license in 1990, there are no IROCs in 91 or 92, just Z28s. That's why 90 is so rare and 91 so common. All 90s had to be built in 89 cutting the model year short. They switched over to building 91s making an extra long run that year.
Edit: I'm thinking they got 1990 from the build date, not the model year. That would make everything fit correctly.
Please continue the Ferrari F355, love the builds!
Continue the SL55 AMG
it only has so little left
@@HksF16 yes I want him to complete the sl55 too, but he is going to swap in a manual for the automatic and I think he's still looking for a good one
This car looks very familiar.
That's because I got a 1990 Iroc Z28 5.7L V8 in my garage.
This build is very cool because I already know pretty much everything about this car and its cool to see a race car version of it
This dude took the engine out of a lamborghini...but doesn't know how to bleed brakes!!! DAFUQ?!?!
His one friend does all the work
He doesn't know anything. He didn't know that an alternator needs to spin in order to work. Typical youtuber that takes credit for other's work.
@@a_friendly_idiot true but unlike a lot of others he does actually admit his lack of knowledge. Maybe not in this video but in others he openly admits when he doesn't know
Without him there was no youtube channels. Dude shut up
@@a_friendly_idiot he was likely still learning, you don’t have to be an expert at what you do to make a RUclips channel on it, everyone starts somewhere.
Luckily roadkill didn’t partner with tavarish otherwise they’d charge for viewing this video 🙄
Remember that it wasn't Mike & David that decided to monetize their content, it was Motortrend.
Probably would have destroyed the car as well.
@@Czechbound fuck Roadkill, Corporate ruined the show taking it off Free RUclips
@@bandvagn Don't knock it till ya try it. Motortrend on Demand is one of the only things I subscribe to that I don't feel is a ripoff. It's under 5 bucks a month. Roadkill is just one of 40 original shows. Junk Yard Gold is one of my favorites. They have hundreds of others. They just picked up all the original Top Gear shows.
Part of roadkills Magic was low budget hot rod fun. They’ve got money now and the episodes are still good they just lost a little bit of that “Magic”
I feel like Jared couldn’t emotionally be there to see it go bye bye. Not gonna lie that is a car I would have a hard time letting go. Glad it has a great donation reason. Thanks man. Great content. I enjoy all ur vids.
IM SO HAPPY EVERYONE IS BUILDING 3rd GENS!!! I own one and now its cool XD im kidding, its always been my
Baby but its really cool watching these things rip
They have been getting alot more attention these days
I think it has to do with the DSE camaro. And the fact foxbodies are so overdone
@@misterbuklau4053 It's about time
I just got a 427 bbc to build out to put in and i cant wait :) more thirdgen videos...morrreeeeee.. im like a fat chick getting hit on when i watch these videos, 🤑
