You're so lucky to find a 3rd gen camaro with a 5 speed for 200 dollars. The rims are worth more than that. I am so envious. That will make a beautiful car with just a little tlc. Congrats on your find.
200 is crazy...dude was out of his mind!! Nice find I've had an rs and an 87 iroc.. I still miss both alot!!! New subscriber here and am going to see what happens with this gem! Sell it to me!!! Lol
Hi Griff it’s been awhile since I’ve seen you. I’m so glad you’re back. For 200.00 that was the steal of the century I love this car the wheels make it look nice 👍 looking forward to see more content from you this year. On your factory temperature gauge you probably be better off to get a mechanical temperature gauge for precise readings the tachometer may be grounded out the reason it’s pegged out and the aftermarket tachometer check the wiring to see if it’s wired correctly. Again thank You for coming back to bring more videos. Wishing you a Blessed One Sir. Greetings from Silverstreet South Carolina.
I found my 84Z 4 hours away from me. Not a bad car at all. In decent shape for its age. Underside was clean as hell. I put a crap ton of new stuff in it when i got it but it wanted to go from the beginning. Once it was mechanically solid, I buffed it out and it shined up real nice. Now im working on asthetics like door and top seals. I like seeing these cars come back from the dead. Theres something nice about it.
Working on this year vehicle is super simple compared to what we have now. I would love to find something like this for a project car. Parts are still available and that's the best part.
Great camaro - it looked like it handled pretty nice out there (not like steering a ship). Big improvement on the paint. I second the motion on adding some seafoam, maybe drip some into the intake + add to gas tank. If you add seafoam to the oil you should change oil within a couple tanks of gas. Another cool car resurrected. Good to see you back. Jealous of your warm weather up here in 🇨🇦. Happy New Year.
Nice job!! I bet that felt awesome the first time it fired up and ran!!! I love the 3rd gen camaros, I've never owned one but my first car was a 78' Z28 , it had the tear drop induction hood and T-tops...it needed a little body work , it wasn't the prettiest thing but it wasn't a rolling rust bucket either...I had the fastest car at my high-school, I proved it wasnt luck or a fluke on multiple occasions...later on I had a 97' 30th anniversary edition
Got a 1988 same camero in sotrage waiting to get it to. 5 manual 306. Cannot wait to get it onnthe road!!! This vid helps keep my dream alive. Thank yoy
This is what i drove every day from 1995 to 2001, 5 speed V6, 2.8 liter MPFI, it screamed. It sold on Ebay when i liquidated it before moving to CA, just before 9/11, perfect timing. At one point I was having trouble with my battery and I had a 3 hour drive home, when on a business trip. When i went to get gas, I had to find a station with a slight downhill from the pump so i could bump start it, best ot just not shut it off in the first place. I dont remember it was 25 years ago. My wife never drove the thing cause she couldnt handle a manual. Turns out she could handle men just fine. Wish the car was here and not her.
I have a passion for the 3rd gen camaros. I hope you can bring it back to life. I have 2 that I'm working on and they are fighting me tooth and nail. I love them though.
Tell you a little secret right at the corner of the battery bolted to the iner fender well looks like a plug-in sensor it is actually a 20 amp fuse for the fuel pump 88-92 Camaro Firebird have that same little pump fuse
That is a beautiful 3rd gen! As far as a personal build, & besides a gull frame vehicle, a all black 3rd gen is all I've ever wanted. I hope you make it nice & fast!!!
Score! $200, even if you found something structurally catastrophic, it's still a huge win. Part it out, you can get well over $200 for the wheels alone. T-Tops, interior parts lenses, etc. very cool
I had an issue with the shifter on my 87 Iroc w/t5 where the spring in the shifter was old and weak, making it hard to find 3rd gear. Replaced the shifter with a Pro 5.0 short-shifter and it fixed it right up. Now rowing through the gears is a breeze. Awesome video my guy. Subbed.
Es el auto más bonito que ha tenido la Chevrolet es el más fabuloso y muy precioso el mejor y super camaro saludos sur san fransisco y digan recontrullendo autos que necesitan matita de gato felicidades amigos bay
Bro if you got that for $200 you stole that car!😱😎💗 the tires alone are worth that!! Man you got lucky!! And it's a manual ttop!!😱 not a manual fan but still wow!
Fresh spark plugs could cure the rough idle had a chance about 15 yrs ago to get s convertible irocz should have gotten it but these 3rd generation looks amazing
My buddy had one , that car was repainted .. that would bring you in a good $$ if you flip it and work out the minor issues ..but? i would dump some Seafoam in the gas tank clean the fuel system out , stuff works wonders , i'll give $250 for it :) easy on the throttle pulling out .. lol , but also glad too see a video .. keep'em coming ..
Has some sweet wheels for 200 bucks. What a deal. And I don't even like 3rd gens. I had 2nd gens. I drove in a 3rd gen firebird into our tire shop and it felt and smelled just like my trans ams did. You can definitely have a nice story for your ride. 200 bucks for a whole car. Getting it running good will take some time but it's a sporty car for dirt cheap
A suggestion from a GM VAN NUYS AUTO WORKER Always drop tank and clean, and never run fuel out, these pumps need fuel to cool .After 675 camaros Pontiacs a night 8hrs for 10yrs. There is a coolant for temp for the OB1 and fans and engine Temps. Clean and flush engine new coolant, wiggle test sensors and check GROUNDS.
You’ll learn soon enough you bring those tops with you when you take them off. And once you get used to driving the 5 speed, youllhave yourself a helluva car for 200 bux! Sure wish I’d come across a deal like that.
Wait till you see what’s under the valve covers and heads..normal gum issue with that yr and that over spray is on the clear coat so if you use a medium cutting pad it’ll take it all off..
How tf are people find cars this cheap annoying af, like I wanna find one for cheap, so jealous but I've given up on my classic car dreams lmao wish I could find a deal like this great vid
Man, that's a deal, bro. When I was 14, my dad bought an 86 Trans am from the yard sale across the street. He payed 350 for it and it didn't run. We got it home, and a half hour later, my dad was doing burnouts down the street. One of the starter bolts broke and shifted the starter. The guy across the street was so pissed.
Okay I'm half way through this video and I'll watch the rest when I get back from getting my daught from school. I noticed how old this video is and I hope it isnt already too late but I see you are a bigger guy like myself. I own a 2002 camaro and just live the gen 3 Camaros also. You said you have never owned one before so to save your seats from tears and breaking, use the bottom of the door seal when you are getting out of the car. Most people dont and either use the steering wheel or the seat itself. Either they loosen the collum or they tear and break the seats quick. My 2002 has 95k miles and still looks in mint condition. Camaros are nice and great cars you just have to take a little extra care of them. I'll have to watch all the videos on this car for sure.
You're so lucky to find a 3rd gen camaro with a 5 speed for 200 dollars. The rims are worth more than that. I am so envious. That will make a beautiful car with just a little tlc. Congrats on your find.
Thanks!
100% I wish I could find a deal like that been wanting a project car. Jealous as hell good find
I'm very envious too
That's what my mom always used to say : "your rim is worth more than 200$"
200 bucks with those wheels? damn what a fortunate find.
Glad you saved it and got everything looking good again. These cars used to be everywhere, but now it's getting harder and harder to find them.
I had a 1988 IROC-Z very base model 2 options T-Tops and 305 TPI. I loved that car
The more you get it going. The more we're hating on you. Congrats on your steal
Great job Griff, and what a deal! Even if it didn't run you've got your money back in parts alone.
Thanks Sean! Yep you can’t lose money on any car really for $200 lol
DEFINITELY! The guy tells him $200, and he had to _"go take a look at it!"_
Some people....
Glad to see you’re back. Missed seeing your videos. Cheers to the new year and new projects!
Thanks Mark! I’m excited about 2022 as well!
200 is crazy...dude was out of his mind!! Nice find I've had an rs and an 87 iroc.. I still miss both alot!!! New subscriber here and am going to see what happens with this gem! Sell it to me!!! Lol
Man I’ve been looking for a manual Camaro like that for like ever. I’ll give your money back for it lol.
Man those brake parts were $200 alone. 😂😂😂 Good find.
Hi Griff it’s been awhile since I’ve seen you. I’m so glad you’re back.

I am a detailer use carnauba wax and buff it out with a black polishing pad.

DAMM it’s working good job sounds good!!
Very cool video I love to see them all
Amazing find! V8 AND a stick!
Thanks Eric!
Older 350 idle high or 305 till there warmed up. Nice job. I'm only half way in to the vid. Vacuum leaks too will do that. Like the beats.
Thanks!
The Tbi cars originally came with a 195 thermostat. They run just slightly hotter than and old school small block.

Thanks Jeff! Yep I believe some sea foam is a good idea. Surprisingly it does handle well. Happy new year to you as well!
Great video and find
Thanks 👍
Great video I just subscribed to your channel I love that third gen camero
Damn, if its not rusty, a third gen all there with T tops! That's a steal.
Nice job!! I bet that felt awesome the first time it fired up and ran!!! I love the 3rd gen camaros, I've never owned one but my first car was a 78' Z28 , it had the tear drop induction hood and T-tops...it needed a little body work , it wasn't the prettiest thing but it wasn't a rolling rust bucket either...I had the fastest car at my high-school, I proved it wasnt luck or a fluke on multiple occasions...later on I had a 97' 30th anniversary edition
200 dollars for a running car in any condition is f ing awesome.
SCORE!! Wow, what a great deal!
Thanks!
That's a definite steal .
It nice to see this classic being fixed up after being neglected for so long. Sweet looking Camaro

Hey Griff. You always need a new project. Thanks for sharing. 🍁👍👍
I love the 3rd generation camaro and I had a 1988 IROC Z-28 with the 305 ho 5spd and posi Trac

That's a steal for $200 nice score man👍👍
Thanks!
Beautiful car great deal I'm looking for one too
I have a passion for the 3rd gen camaros. I hope you can bring it back to life. I have 2 that I'm working on and they are fighting me tooth and nail. I love them though.
I’ve got this one on the road, pretty fun to drive too. I wish you luck on your projects!
@@griffparker1466 thank you. I appreciate your response. Good luck to you as well.
Santa was good to you. Old red Galaxie still looks good too. Glad to see you making videos again
Thanks Barny!
I wish I can get another one or some other project
For the money u paid for it man it looks dam good some used car dealers lots cars don't look that good
Tell you a little secret right at the corner of the battery bolted to the iner fender well looks like a plug-in sensor it is actually a 20 amp fuse for the fuel pump 88-92 Camaro Firebird have that same little pump fuse
WHAT A DEAL and a steal lol, nice man
Stubborn to the channel man what a nice buy on the car
Thanks!
Damn! A diamond in the rough for $200, nice find!
@@philbrady702 thanks man!
Sound like a tiger haha...I love this sound motor! Hugs from Brazil !!
Good deal on a solid decent Camaro.
Thanks!
Can't complain about brake parts u got a hell of a deal
You cleaned up the Camaro very well !!! It looks WAY better !!!
Don't do the coulda, shoulda woulda bit.
If you belive he only gave $200 for this then I've got some sea front land for sale on top of Mount Everst 😂
I mean, I had to pay $240 to tow it, and about $80 to transfer the title, but I did only pay $200 for the car itself
That's a steal for two hundred. Needs some cosmetic stuff, but it's a bargain any way you look at it.
That is a beautiful 3rd gen! As far as a personal build, & besides a gull frame vehicle, a all black 3rd gen is all I've ever wanted. I hope you make it nice & fast!!!
I enjoyed your channel this was great from start to finish glad you got it back on the road 👍👍
Tune up maybe plugs wires?
Score! $200, even if you found something structurally catastrophic, it's still a huge win. Part it out, you can get well over $200 for the wheels alone. T-Tops, interior parts lenses, etc. very cool
Good deal 👍
The T Tops go in the back with pouches and straps keeps the safe and free from scratches
Imma need to get me some of those
I had an issue with the shifter on my 87 Iroc w/t5 where the spring in the shifter was old and weak, making it hard to find 3rd gear. Replaced the shifter with a Pro 5.0 short-shifter and it fixed it right up. Now rowing through the gears is a breeze.
Awesome video my guy. Subbed.
Thanks!

Just found your channel, I'm outside of Knightdale ! Maybe you'll see 1 of my projects around town.
Subscribed , keep it up!
Cool man! Thanks!
Bro if you got that for $200 you stole that car!😱😎💗 the tires alone are worth that!! Man you got lucky!! And it's a manual ttop!!😱 not a manual fan but still wow!
Being new to the channel, I don’t know where you were cruising around; but that was pretty country.
Fresh spark plugs could cure the rough idle had a chance about 15 yrs ago to get s convertible irocz should have gotten it but these 3rd generation looks amazing
Good deal for 200 dollars and you got the car going.

Crazy that’s like a $3500 dollars here in Canada 🇨🇦
Great find. Where you been?
I just took a little break but I’m back now, thanks for watching!
Wow man this was a great video thanks for this! Good job on all of this!
Thanks man!
Has some sweet wheels for 200 bucks. What a deal. And I don't even like 3rd gens. I had 2nd gens. I drove in a 3rd gen firebird into our tire shop and it felt and smelled just like my trans ams did.
You can definitely have a nice story for your ride. 200 bucks for a whole car. Getting it running good will take some time but it's a sporty car for dirt cheap
Glad you're back. How's the inside of the tank look
Thanks Doug! It’s not perfect but I think it will be fine

What a deal. Here in Australia you’d be lucky to get the air cleaner housing for $200. Hotties see you back on deck.
You can’t go wrong with that
Wait till you see what’s under the valve covers and heads..normal gum issue with that yr and that over spray is on the clear coat so if you use a medium cutting pad it’ll take it all off..
What a steal wow😡
Nice wheels what are they so i can look online would look nice on my iroc
Torque thrusts
Thank you
Had a 92. It’s the passkey module.
He must of not realized how good it was
How tf are people find cars this cheap annoying af, like I wanna find one for cheap, so jealous but I've given up on my classic car dreams lmao wish I could find a deal like this great vid
Don’t be afraid to be quick with the clutch
Yup thought the same but I'm sure he'll get it down
I found a mechanically sound 1987 Pontiac Firebird Formula for $2500 and thought I got a good deal. Congrats on that 200 dollar diamond in the rough!
Thanks!
Hold on to that car it’s worth money and it’s gonna keep going up in value
The third gen firebirds and camaro’s look pretty good with torque thrusts
Chucky find a deal like that and had the money at the time.
Mister! Wait! It comes with a baby
Had a IROC with the 5.7 in it wish I had kept it
Perfect LS swap car !
That’s a steal.
This is the 3rd camaro revival I have seem in as many days where they have cut up the trunk.floor to replace the fuel pump.
The alternative is dropping the rear axle that’s why it’s so common and fuel pumps are a common repair on these cars.
Nice score, basically you bought a nice set of wheels/tires for $200 and got a car with them.
Man, that's a deal, bro. When I was 14, my dad bought an 86 Trans am from the yard sale across the street. He payed 350 for it and it didn't run. We got it home, and a half hour later, my dad was doing burnouts down the street. One of the starter bolts broke and shifted the starter. The guy across the street was so pissed.
😂 gotta love it when it’s an easy fix
DAM....i need a 200 dalla project like that heck the wheels and tires are 200 right there ez...
