- Please watch till the end! There's a message about what we're doing with this channel I want you to see.... Here's Another project with the 74 Camaro... I had a great comment from a guy that begged me not to cut it up if it was a true Z28. It's not... so I'm-a-choppin! paintucation.cinevee.com/ has all kinds of videos if you want to DIY your own paint and body projects, and this Camaro will probably feed some new streaming videos. Thanks for watching!!! Lotsa great stuff coming !!!

Thanks for the comments!!! I'm making a game plan and it's formulating!!!! Gonna hit this car hard this week.
Kevin is gonna hit that Camero so hard, it's gonna reverse Christine itself. 😅
And if anyone gets that, we can be friends.
Hello do you have an email address I would like to talk with you I'm currently a technical trainer with Toyota in Elkhart Indiana. And I am also working on new techniques in training maybe help each other with resources Thank you!
Hi Kevin. I take it, that I wasn't alone thinking,that while removing the hood,it fell in the direction of the windshield and looked like that broke the windshield? I did look it,I watched it again, but forgot to look for cracking before hood removing.
Need a left hand man??
Kevin. This is the same year car my best friend had in high school, so,the 74 is near and dear to me.Would you be willing to sell the 74 to me? Please
That Nissan needs a 2JZ,and make it a no prep,back side drag car,or,drag and drive car
I love when the guys I grew up watching are so relatable. Leaking air fittings, losing train of thought mid sentence, and the moments when we are reminded how old we are getting.
yup.... short term memory loss is my super-power! LOL! Thanks for watching!
"Since I don't want to snort this rust (no longer the '80s)" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That comment took me out!! 🤣🤣🤣
I wondered if anyone would pick up on that..... 🤣
@@paintucation That made me think about an old cb buddy of mine his handle was Wild Bill anyhow he was an ex paint and body man and all them years of doing paint and body work without using PPE had destroyed his health to the point he needed a full time nurse so I love seeing you guys religously using it because I've seen what happens when you don't wear PPE
Same 😂
@@georgethompson4736 We all need to use PPE. There is no excuse not to use it.
Kevin has always given us a reason not to feel shame for wanting to be safe lol
This is like watching an episode of This Old House; Kevin is the Bob Villa of automotive repair.
I'll take that!!! I loved Bob Villa!
Don’t sweat it man, people who do their own restorations know how long a project takes to do it right. And life always interrupts you and takes out your knees (like a certain ice skater back in the day). Keep up the great attitude!
10-4!!
I once talked with a highway patrolman, and he told me that those long heavy doors were a lifesaver on the low slung speedsters. He said he never rolled to a fatality on those old Camaros as long as the driver was seatbelted in. I once saw a Camaro when an 18 wheeler decided to park on one. The door kept the driver alive even though the full weight of the cab was resting on his door.
Heard Chef!!! I was gonna lighten the side impact beams on ZedSled ( the reason they're so heavy...) but I decided to keep em safe and heavy. This one will be the same.
My '99 has fiberglass doors.

kevin when you painted “Copper Head” on trucks that showed me you know exactly what your doing!👍🏿😂
Man, that was a minute ago!!! Copperhead was a fun project! I had no idea where that would take me.... I just knew I needed to give it my best effort
I have been teaching automotive restoration at a technical college for 35 years and always enjoy watching you. I always pick up a tip or two. Don’t stop what you’re doing, teaching the masses. Thanks for sharing your wisdom.
Thank you sir! I applaud what you're doing as well... This comment made my day!
I remember when KT took over Trucks! I was so unhappy Stacey was gone, that I practically stopped watching. Of course I began to watch Kevin over the years in whatever show he was on. Actually I met him while eating lunch at SEMA a couple years ago. All that being said, I'm addicted to his Paintucation Yourube Channel. Best ive seen!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Superb.
My first car was a burgundy 74 Camaro with a white vinyl top. I paid $700 for it. You could hear the rust crunching under the vinyl top when you pressed on it. I used to lose full quarts of oil out of the giant rust holes in the trunk. As a 16 yr old kid with no money or expertise, I couldn't fix it correctly. Now, at 59, I've built my dream garage in the back yard. You're Paintucation DVDs (the mullet series) have been invaluable. Keep up the good work!
Thanks man! Very much appreciated!
I love that you’re doing these videos again, Kevin! I missed the old days of watching you build Jaded and ZedSled.
You have a gift. You’re informative and entertaining. Keep up the good work!
Thanks man!
My background is corrosion removal and painting of military aircraft. So this channel is "right down my alley". I wouldn't have heard about it were it not for that VGG episode.
I had a '74 Camaro and that was the car that I learned how to change the door bushings on. It was worth the effort as I changed them on my dads '75 ElCamino. The look on his face was priceless, I was at my FIL's house and had left the car in the front yard when we took the door off. Left it laying on a quilt in the yard. Took both hinges to FIL's shop in the back to clean up the hinges and installed the new pins and bushings. My dad showed up in the middle of that work and I was so proud to show him that I could fix his sagging door.
That's a great memory!!! Thanks for sharing it.
I am very happy to see that you are willing to go so far to share your knowledge. So many people complain about the next generation and at the same time won't share their wisdom. When I was a kid I'd just get told to go to the library.
I can relate to this, when i started working in IT 30+ years ago, the old timers were IBM mainframe guys and would not share their knowledge with anyone. and i hated them for it, because they made my job harder than it had to be. I know most of them were worried that I was younger guy and had a passion for learning and that I would eventually replace them. I was ready to quit at one point, but my boss that told me you can't be promoted, if you can't be replaced, and those old IBM guys would retire in their same positions or become unemployed as main frames were being replaced with PC back in the 90s and in that in IT field everything changes in 5 years or less and if you are unwilling to learn or teach you will become redundant and unemployable in that field. Now I am the old guy and I try to pass on everything i have learned to my team, and still try to keep up with what's new and i have learn a bit from my younglings as well.
So glad to see this car getting some TLC. When Derek picked it up I thought it was done.
I always thought you were one of, if not the best presenter on Powerblock. I’m happy that you are continuing on RUclips.
Thanks Gary!!!!
I remember pulling my 71 camaro out of a corn crib in the 90's it had been a drag car in the late 70's through late 80's., no rear end no motor drug it home on a flat bed trailer.. my wife and neighbors thought I was crazy... a month and a half later I was smoking the tires off and stepping on 5.0 mustangs.. lol... thanks for bringing me back to those moments.. can't wait to see the finished project.. cheers
So true on the doors. I got two from a salvage yard to add electric windows and locks to my 1976 Grand Prix. Those doors must have been 100 pounds a piece and salvage yard owner made the guys working there carry them by themselves. He said that's a one guy job.Had to rebuild the door hinges they would always wear out. I saw the the header panel come off a couple times but being an editor myself I know that can happen, so I didn't mention it. Thought you were going for the 80's music video remix stutter style. Yeah that's it!
Yup! it was a "style" thing...... Not a time-crunch gotta get it posted moment.!LOL! Thanks man!
I have been watching you for years your all most has good has me lol I'm 52 years old I've been doing paint body works since I was 12 years old you're never too old to learn something new
I totally agree!!! We're underground when we stop learning! Thanks for watching.
Old school passion with modern skills. You re keeping hot rodding alive.
Kevin Tits didn't do nothing in this video just talked to much and brushed on some primer. His westwood videos were good
Kevin Tits is the best
I own a 1970 back in the 80s I painted it with a Binks #7.Dupont Centari, 99a pitch black. Back then a gallon of paint like $27 a gallon. Still own the car with the paint job.still looks killer.....
Kevin when you can put out these great vids , we'll be here . I've learned so much watching you over the years .
Thanks Ronnie! I'm learning too. Thanks for watching!
You’re like the Bob Ross of auto restoration😂enjoying your videos
Getting back into car projects in my 60's after a long dealing with life hiatus. Love the format here. Kevin doing Kevin his way. Best of luck to him 'paying it forward' with the full time endeavor. That Picklex used in this vid is good stuff. Got turned onto it in Kev's old forum back in the day. My basketcase 69 restomod project in early 2000s sat in my garage for 4 years as I slowly worked on it without paint most of the time. No surface rust ever formed in that time where treated with that stuff.
Kevin, I have the utmost respect for you and the rest of the autobody techs. It always amazes me how much work autobody is, and the gratification of a job well done has to be what keeps you going.
This is turning into my favorite car channel. I'm currently restoring a mk1 Toyota MR2 that has waaay more rust than this (thanks to the UK climate) and watching someone else make progress on a project always gives me a bit more enthusiasm for mine.
THanks for watching man!!! I grew up in western Canada, I understand about rust! I'm lucky to be in Tennessee these days.
Thanks for passing on your knowledge and experience and the price is right!
I love how in the first video at 18:38 from your floor inspection you already went into detective mood
Hey Kevin , love the show I'm 65 been a mechanic all my life even in the military ! Still working on hot rods , but I always learn something watching your channel !!! Till next time take care & stay cool 😎 and keep Cruzin' !! 👍
Thanks man! You're very much appreciated!!!🇺🇸
Great tip that gets highly overlooked in the automotive world. That's exactly how I applied my epoxy to my floor pans after repairing them. Under carpet so not to be seen can't be seen. I love all the knowledge you share with us and I've gained as a do it yourselfer.
I have been building and restoring cars since the early 80s. I really like your style of presentation. I can watch your videos and always pick up useful info. I'll be watching!
You are a man of good taste. Autocross, 66 C10, F-bodys. All things we both have and share an interest in.
Love from California, Kevin. You've got great energy, and it's contagious. It's nice to meet the real Kevin and not that polished TV Kevin. I tried snorting rust dust in the 80's and almost had a metal breakdown, Haha.
Thanks very much!!! I like doiing RUclips in a realistic way... its liberating. :)
I was enthralled when you started peeling back the "layers". Lol, it's fascinating seeing how to dissect a collision like it's a crime scene. Thank you. I learned for sure.
I gotta be honest here. Yes, I'm a little disappointed you can't do start to finish builds like you used to back in the day. I still get to watch the master work his magic, and I'm good. You have always been both informative and entertaining and is great to see again. So, hell yeah!
Btw, that Miata is absolutely bad to the ass!! I want one, but in silver. 😂❤
If the RUclips gods bless me, we may be doing full builds sooner that I think.... fingers crossed!!!
Oh man! It'll be just like the good ol days again!!! I can't friggin wait!!!!!!!! The level of perfection will be glorious and legendary! ❤
Keep up the great work. Really enjoying these shows. Even old painters like me can learn something.
I really appreciate you working on these older cars. Nobody seems to do it nowadays other than vice grip. I really appreciate everything you do Kevin and what you teach. It's amazing! Have a great day!
Ours was a White LT with a 350/350, Centerlines, skinny and fat Micky Thompson's and Highjackers on the back. Tinted windows with black interior looked mean and the 350 had a Holly, Hedman headers and a Pete Jackson geardrive for that sweet whine! Flip the linelock and pin it until the speedo said 60 and then let it roll!
The technical stuff, I know it's most important, but it makes my eyes heavy and puts my head bobbin' like a student preacher in week long revival in July.
I like how you put energy into your talks, (it keeps my attention) like someone that snorted rust in the 80s...LOL
But MAN you talks fast. Down here in the south we're more like the Ents from Lord of the Rings stories,
"If it's worth saying, it's worth taking a long time to say."
But then, I guess that's what rewind (back up, go back, or whatever the kids call it these days) is for. LOL Your enthusiasm is infectious. And that's a good thing.
I love the show and look forward to following the projects you have waiting in the wings.
Keep going with your full time job by all means. Totally get your passion, and put out whatever, whenever you can. I’m enjoying the channel and have always wanted to do a Camaro mod like the one you’re undertaking. Will be monitoring for updates, and look forward to the aluminum grill restoration, it’s always been a bugaboo for me.
I'm really enjoying the work on the Camaro.Its nice seeing a car Derek resurrected getting some love.
I thoroughly enjoy watching the process of Body work repair. Keep cranking out these great videos. They are very intuitive .
You got it!!! I enjoy showing my way of doing it .
Hey Kevin, love the Camaro project!!! I'm glad you're taking on the project, even if you can't show us everything. I know you can't give away all your best tips and tricks for free, but I'm glad you're pulling back the curtain as much as you can. You're such a great teacher, and a huge wealth of knowledge. Keep the videos coming, keep the videos coming, keep the videos coming (lol)!!!🏁🏁🏁
P.S. you and Derick would've been dynamite on a show together back in the TNN/spikeTV days. I hope you two are cooking up another project together.
This sure makes me miss my 79 Camaro.....one car I should have never sold.
Wished you had already done the grill restore, currently trying to polish a spun aluminum finished gas tank and struggling to learn as I go,....but getting it there.
It's so great finding Kevin again after years. I loved watching the saturday morning car shows as a kid
Always check the steering wheel by spinning it along a fixed point. If you see it bent , then it had a collision.
That's a nice car, worthwhile to restore and enjoy it. BBC
I really want to see more restorations! love the current Camaro build and would love to see that beautiful C10 again! Thanks Kevin!!
Im just an old fart,but i enjoy watching you and others fix up cars like i used to have. Brings back memories. I had a 77 firebird,a 70 GTO judge, and a 68 lemans. Oh my first car was a ford falcon..ha . Pex
Kevin, just put out the video's that you can bud. I've been here for a long time and when you have new content I watch it.
Bodywork isn't my thing but watching you keeps me grounded. When I watch your videos it helps me to remember what lane I'm supposed to be in so that when I try your lane and I suck at it, it's ok, because I'm not a body guy. 😆
Anyway, keep putting up progress on your projects. It's good for me to watch them while I work on my own junk.
Thanks dude!
A Saturday with a new video of Kevin Tetz showing me how to work on cars? That is some good nostalgia right there.
You sir, are the Bob Ross of the auto paint industry! Love your videos!
I'm 77 years old and I love watching your videos because there isn't a time that don't learn something. Yes the days of us using lead are long gone and using a com-a-long on the side of the shop to straighten car bodies is over as well. It makes me think of how far we have come in doing this work. Thank You for your time and trouble with these videos as they can still teach a Old Dog new tricks
Thanks Kevin for the education and information you have given us over the years. I have watched you since I was a young teenager that fell in love with old cars I turn 40 this year.
I wish you would do these videos full time. I love them. You're great at it. I remember watching you on Sunday mornings. Very good at this and I have always enjoyed your content.
I'm working on it, actually. If I can talk more people into subscribing and create more and better content, that might just happen!
I loved NOVA REX when you were the lead singer. I cant believe you turned out to be an automotive expert. One never knows where life will lead you. Keep up the good work.
Lets goooo. Dude im stoked to see this car come back to life!
Hey Kevin. Super excited about all of your projects. I’ve learned a lot from you and look forward to learning more.
Thanks Kevin! Always learning and your format is likely more useful for those not in it daily and enjoy diy.
Much like you, I have a considerable amount of booth time but enjoy the entire process of building cars and trucks.. Finding quality parts is the toughest part and the foreign made aftermarket parts is all we got and the tips and tricks to making them work is what most never experience ...hint
Kevin is like the Bob Ross of restoration! So calming and helpful! Much respect 🙏
Paint whisperer? Lol!
You help so many people with confidence in doing it themselves it’s very admirable. I was doing restoration/ repairs on vehicles for over a decade and the game changer was when I started my own business mobile blasting and honestly I’ll never strip a car down by hand anymore. I charge 1500 for a full blast on a shell guarantee not warp it. But some guy’s can’t afford it or don’t have that option so you doing it by hand gives them a solid boost of inspiration. Love your videos man 👍
I’m being 💯 honest. My wife overheard this video and said “ he’s doing the exact same thing you’re doing to your red 78 camaro.. even down to the chaparral race car!” My response was yeah but he’s going to finish sooner and do a better job 😂.
This guy is like the Bob Ross of classic car paint & body. Love it.!
DUDE! I'm gonna get the wig! LOL!
Lots of cool projects, look forward to future vids.
I was going to a body shop repair school in 94 , But life happens,Wish I was your right hand man,And I’ve have watched you for years,Ur awesome
Glad you're using the PPE. Years ago, I was cutting a board to repurpose it, and there was a square nail embedded in it. It ricocheted off the saw and straight toward my eye. Cost me a good pair of safety glasses, and I got nominated to do the safety talk at work that week...I credit my dad with instilling a safety culture when working with power tools, given that he's nearly cut his hand off twice on the table saw...
So glad I found your channel! Can’t wait to see how the Camaro and the Z turn out!!
Love that you are back on a video platform... Totally understand the "multiple hats" and that the projects will happen as they happen...
I am amazed at how well that nylon bristle wheel worked on that rust. I agree who would have thought after looking at the condition of the roof the subroof would be in such good condition. PS you Bob Rossed us through the roof coating lol
I swear, I'm getting the wig!! It's coming!
Looking forward to seeing these builds... Great channel!
When looking for a true Z28 all Z28's came with power brakes as standard equipment as well as high energy ignition HEI which will have the HEI wiring harness with the big orange wire. I hope you fix this car but it's a deciding factor when it comes to damage in certain areas. Great video as always!
Take your time Kevin, I am really enjoying your work and your videos, keep up the great content !
Great video! I'm looking forward to all the content that you are putting out on this channel. You have great a great communication style and you keep everything down to earth for us backyard folks. Everything I watch something I feel like I learned something that I can apply at some point on my project. Thanks!
Great content. Thank you for sharing your talents with us.
I have a 79, it's been around for 20ish 22:39 yrs. I remember Hotrod building the 79 Erod. Watching you gets me thinking about how I can get my wife excited about spending money....
Kevin, this is awesome brother. Saving this car. I will be following along on this adventure, As I am starting one similar myself. Cannot wait!
It is nice to see that the old F body is getting some love. I remembered watching when Darik and Sean drug that car out of the barn. Then the look you gave it out in the field before the 350 was robbed. I didn't know if it was getting saved or used for other things. But i love the idea of the conversion and saving it. Trust me im on my 2nd 78 F body.
Thanks for the knowledge
Old classic hand and air tools. No over represented Milwaukee junk. You got my subscription and loyalty earned. ❤
Thanks for the idea. I am replacing a trunk floor on a finish painted car and I will probably brush prime all the underside of the trunk. That will make it easier than trying to spray in there.
I really enjoy your videos. Keep em coming whenever you can. I'm in the same boat, with a full time job and making videos on the side. Just trying to get better!
Paint tips and tricks are what I always come back for over the years. Keep em coming!
I must say, I remember watching you on Trucks and at the time, you just seemed like the average TV host being paid to promote whatever happened to be on the show (I still watched them all though, there wasn't much automotive on TV then). But I recently discovered your videos here and they are great. I love how you explain your thoughts and reasoning every step of the way. It's very relatable and I appreciate you doing what you do.
This is the best car channel on RUclips...keep up the great work...
Glad I found your channel! I love watching old cars get brought back to life by guys like you that have mad skills!
I really enjoy learning how this stuff is done. Thank you. I am looking forward to seeing this beaut done
My first car was a 74 Camaro. When I saw this car over on VGG channel it got me in the feels 😂 and of course the different “what if” questions happen but I’m super stoked that you got the car and are going to do an awesome project with it. I’m here for the long haul, your passion really shows through on video and thanks for sharing your knowledge!!
So happy to see your still at it, I've been watching you for years and you're a gold mine of knowledge!!
From one Kevin to another, thank you. I have enjoyed your work since back when you were on TV.. I love that you’re passing on your knowledge to the next generation.
Some of the best eye opening info I have seen in a very long time- new subscriber!
I hear you on the time constraints - do what you gotta' do man. We'll be here and soak up whatever you have time to share. Appreciate all you do!
I’ve watched your shows forever! Glad to see you expanding your horizons! so to speak.. loving this channel, and it’s been improving steadily might I add! Great job and I look forward to seeing more content! Take care..
I am a long time follower of you through the TV years. I have recently found your channel Paintucation and look forward to the new projects.
sooo glad you made a channel...its like watching your old show...only better !!!!!
Awesome build, will be watching. I dig your personality and presentation Bro. Thanks for the info and content.
I found your channel via RUclips suggestion. As weather where I live is clearing up and warming up I am getting ready to do the Body Work on my own Project 81' Malibu. It's channels like these that I look for, gaining knowledge and going out getting my own experience. Keep'em rolling.
Big 10-4!!! Stay tuned!!
I roofed houses for 42 years and tried to enjoy life working on my old Camaros so it could be worse, and you will find the time to do what you love. Thanks!
Check out my old Camaro RS/SS
Thank you sir for the content I have a 65 mustang fastback project I been playing with but I never been able to actually enjoy it because it needs so much body work, finally pulled out the drivetrain out for my foxbody now im watching you thanks for the help
Thanks for keeping it real with us. I'll continue to watch, learn and laugh with whatever you have time to share. Love what you are about and what you are doing to keep the automotive repair/restoration industry alive for future generations. 🍻🇺🇸
I caught the header panel but I already mentioned the windshield it looked as though got cracked but was already and wasn't going to give you too much grief! This time I just got to say - I loved Bob Ross too! Another great video Kevin. I'm going to start scuffing my rusty metal clean after etching now. I told ya, I need to see your body work videos!
Not to mention that PickleX also improves the result when welding too.
Great video, thanks for the rust tips!
