- This 1974 Chevrolet promotional film, titled " Selling Camaro ", was sent to the Chevrolet car dealerships to be used as an in-house Sales and customer training film. This film highlights technical aspects and features of the new model year.
If you look up a different film I posted, titled "1974 Chevy Selling Monte Carlo ", you can see a rare glimpse of the film cartridge viewer that was used at the dealership where the customers and personnel were to view these films. The machine was made by Technicolor and called the " Chevrolet Mini Theater System "
This film came from my personal collection. This film was not downloaded from any website and is not reused content. This restoration is my work. The restoration process started with removing the super8 film from the Technicolor Cartridge. After removal the film was cleaned, repaired, and spooled onto a standard film reel. This film had many scratches and dust marks along with severe color fade. The scanning to digital process and basic color correction was performed on the Lasergraphics Scanstation motion picture film scanner system in 2k resolution. Excess film grain noise was removed and the images upscaled to 4K resolution utilizing Topaz AI software. Then in 4K, extensive color restoration was performed in Davinci Resolve. Scratches and dust marks along with advanced noise removal was performed using NeatVideo. Then a second and final color restoration and image stabilization was performed in DaVinci Resolve. Unfortunately, this film appears to have external sunlight damage causing the color and film image to shift and change as the film progresses. Finally, the film was downscaled back to 2k for uploading to RUclips. As I work on these films, I try to improve the process as I go along. Thanks for watching.
I swear by those mid 70s Camaro bumpers because they saved my bacon more than once! One good example--a 1976 Camaro was my first car that I had for 11 years (how many people can say they had their first car that long?) Girl ran into the back of me with her little Honda--mashed up her hole front end! My Camaro? Thanks to that solid steel bumper---barely a scratch! She had to pay for damages on her whole car--I completely let it go, because there wasn't even a scratch on mind!
Nice, I love these. Sure makes me wish I lived in a 70s time loop 😁👍🏻👍🏻
You and me both!
Had a 74 dark green camaro..loved it in 1977..wish I had it back
My first car
Who else thought of Bumblebee?
The Pinto based Mustang. Ooooooo snap
The twin sport mirrors are what sold me on the Camaro
When was the last time you saw a Camaro with column shift? Wow, I had forgotten Chevy offered it on their F body.
Three on the tree, those were the days
@@theemulsionalchemist5688 and it was funny how the more complicated column shift was standard equipment on some cars and the simple floor shift cost extra. Brilliant marketing. Make customer pay more for something that costs less.
@@JWROWE3 Column shift was supposed to be a convenience in cars with bench seat because a center passenger would be in the way of a floor shift. Not sure why a car with buckets would need one. My 1970 Nova originally had bench and column shift. Changed out to buckets and floor shift when swapped 6 to 350 and Muncie 4 speed.
😍!
The only people that bought Camaros were high school kids and people that had Camaros before. And this is still true. 40 years later. You can't sell a Camaro to a mustang owner and you can't sell a mustang to a Camaro owner
I would have agreed with you until the 2015 Mustang debut. I grew up in GM cars and was specificlly Camaro and Monte Carlo obsessed. I was selling Chevys in 2010 when the Camaro was reintroduced. I wanted one so much but it was still out of my price range (I was driving a Cavalier). I never thought I'd EVER drive a FORD.... but when I could afford a Camaro in 2020 I bought a 2016 Mustang. The only time I've ever in both car's history thought the Mustang was a better looking car was the 2015 design. The Camaro just got uglier after the refresh in 2014. It made me sad. If I could have afforded a classic car it would never be a Mustang though. Camaro all the way.
@@beulahboi I agree that the mustang became the better looking car and the Camaro started looking like a high silled brick with virtually no styling.
To be fair. If you take a 1969 Z28 and remove the front and rear spoilers, it looks like complete garbage. I owned a 1973 4 speed Corvette with a LT1 engine. My buddy had an IROQ. I would rather driving older Camaro or Corvette then the new Camaro. Obviously the C8 is a different breed
That's 70s show
My God, every time the guy shuts a door it sounds like a window has fallen off its track. Talk about bad quality.
That is the 1970's for you
Every single one of every American cars models in those years were complete garbage
Nothing worse than GM quality
Did your mother fail to teach you, "if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all?" This guy goes to a lot of trouble to post vintage manufacturer media for MULTIPLE makes. Nice you can come along and make comments like that....If you don't like GM products, simply don't watch the video.
I would take a Hemi Cuda over the Camaro myself. Consider the times. this stuff wasn't being made to last forever. It's a miracle that as many survived as they did.
@@john1959ism Yes, no need to say anything about GM quality when the video clearly points this out. For example, at 3:36 min we see the misaligned rear panel on this car extolling the virtues of GM quality.
@@LearnAboutFlow you obviously missed the point of my comment....I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain it slowly for you.
@@john1959ism And you obviously have never read the novel Rivethead which negates your comment and proves there was, in fact, nothing worse than GM quality in this era. But, hey, why learn facts, right? Facts is hard!
