Lee it sucks that one seat back was is missing, I got ahold of Camaro Central to see if they would donate a seat back cover the guy said that they would check out your video. I hope they sponsor a cover for you. But you should have heard from them by now. I called Echler’s today to see if they would be interested in helping you out. I told them it might be worth there time since you have thousands of subscribers and you are a no BS guy. The guy I talked to seemed more interested in checking it out than the other guy. Hope this helps.
@@clunkersandclassicsno problem I hope it works out. Like my dad always said, “The worst they can tell you when you ask is to tell you no.” Hoping for a yes!
I watch when I have time. Sold my Monte Carlo and now got a 1986 Firebird. Installing rear brakes on it. Based on the condition of your Camaro, it was a money pit from the start. I found a nice garage kept beauty for $4,600.
Lee, I could care less about the bigger RUclips channels, I like your style of building a car 👍, because you build car's like I do, on a budget and building them as you want, not what the YT community says you should build 👍 Thanks for being a True car builder! Not just going with the flow!
I agree, he’s one of the best car builders on RUclips. Straight to the point and no B.s. also gives me motivation to complete my packed driveway projects ,my name is Dave and I’m a car hoarder 😅
You always seam to make the best you can with you can afford . Keep on going . I try and watch all your videos no matter what you are working on at the time
Yep , paint the inside black , some black seat covers and a set of better tires. The back seat just get some black fabric material and make something yourself to cover them. I would put black carpet in the cargo area too. It would be good enough i think. You have such a cool collection of cars i would drive a different one every month ! lol
All these old clunkers deserve to be back on the road in some form or another. The Camaro will get a 2nd chance and someone out there will enjoy it again. I appreciate all the hard work you put in these clunkers, I need my weekly fix.
The design features of the IROC-Z, are all top notch. The center of gravity, the rear spoiler, “stock car” interior, T-TOPS!!!!!!!! And especially when they’re upgraded with a T-56. The wheels, ground effects… why tf are these things so undervalued??? It’s insanity to me🤷🏿 my best friend owned an 82 z28 with five spd and t tops. Funnest mf car I have ever driven! Someone said they handle like shit. What? Not the one I drove! 60 mph around the s turns, and it didn’t even lean lol. Anyway, I bought one. It’s an 87 IROC with a 5.3 LS Swap. 4l60e, which will eventually morph into a tremec T-56. T tops etc… I’m absolutely in love with it, and I’m working tirelessly to get it out together, so I can pop those T Tops out, and feel the wind on my face :)😊. I can’t wait!!!! Will never understand why these cars are so disrespected, and under appreciated/under valued :( you did a great job resurrecting this one from the dead, Lee!❤thanks for taking the time to save this piece of 80s Americana! I’ve learned a lot from this series. Thanks again!
This is a great build. Not your favourite but it’ll be nice to getter’ done! You’ve been talking about it for years. And you will eventually find all the missing components! It’d be great to take it for a spin once in a while.
Good afternoon from Cape Cod ⛵ you may call it rambling but I find it important that you let us know what's on your mind and what steps you want to take. You never know what you're going to fined when you start sanding, right. Overall it was only minor damage. It should look great when you finally paint it if your past results are any indication. Keep up the fine work dude 👍✌️🇺🇲
Cluckers and classics I think you do a great job most people don't even get around to paint number or anything you do a pretty good restoration on all your cars you got so many lined up their hard to choose from if you wanted one I used to have El Caminos 82 mine what is V6 add 87 IROC I hate to get rid of that but I needed the money so I had to sell I like your 78 or 79 Chevelle the gray one were the black stripes I like at 66 van you got I don't want to say keep it as it is put some teardrops or something in the windows like it was in the 60s you call it a Scooby-Doo van but I think there's was a Ford I like them 60s Chevy van that you have keep up the good work and I'm keep on watching too bad you couldn't get a seat cover for the other side on that 85 IROC maybe you practice on guy in the red on them two to get the right color the match at new seat covers if you can match the top try your red dye District Diner until you get the right color just keep adding color to it little at a time it'll come out
Hey Lee, I'm still watching, You can get 5k for that Car easily! I 💕 how You describe it, It does make $ and sense, I can't wait to see, the finished product! I know it gonna be Great! I'm still trying to think up a paint job for the Van? I think it would be a 😎 Two tone paint Job! On the Z, Maroon on bottom, Red on top! Hey just an idea? 😂. Love the channel, Forever Fan, Thanks Man, Props 2 Ya! I will be watching! Galveston, TX.
What. If. You. Put. Seat. Cover s. Bottom. . and. Use. What. Left. For. Hand. Rest. And. Heads. On. Seat s. . is. That. Ok. Just. Triing. To. Help. . good job
Going to have to go back and watch the previous bids on this car. Wanted one of these for years. Just never had the spare cash to get one. Either they are in good shape and high dollar, or they are completely rotted out and not even good for a parts car.....
What do you think about keeping that sporty looking red carpet in the passenger compartment, painting all the plastic panels black, keeping the door panels the way they are now, and founding out some other grey/black front seats from some other car you have (or maybe paint black the existing ones)? In the trunk the carpet could also be black, together with a painted black rear seat.
Those cars never done anything for me. I wouldn’t give 50 dollars for a dozen of them if I HAD to keep and drive them. They not old enough for me to consider cool and I’m not a car person anyway unless it’s 70s or older. Any of them 80s and up is scrap iron to me. Some people love them though.
Hey Lee can you do me a favor can you take the spay gun apart show when you put filter back together isn't it a filter you put back in the front before you spay the car ?
@@MrJamesfree there is no filter in (front) of the gun. He has an orange inline filter that filters water moisture from the air compressor. They're cheap $5 / $10 bucks. 😉✌
I would just redo the interior in gray to match the door panels. Or just go black and paint the door panels to match. The red won't match the new paint anyway and it would look great with the new interior.
When you say taller Springs in the front. Can you please let me know the name brian or the number because I put a whole new suspension under my car and the front seems like it's still sitting low You're sitting up even all the way around p,s, I put to new springs 2 new struts & 2 new strut mounts front & on the back two new springs and 2 shots thanks
Given the way you are going to l have to leave the interior I would have shot it in matt black and sold it as a mean machine kind of theme where the unfinished interior would appeal to buyers!
drive same trucks pre 08 vortec same $hit differt smell humble is key old guys younger generation bills still youg just retiment 65 get medicare next is flying or less gas to each his own
This is your first build that's ever depressed me . I get it You hate the car It's not worth anything. Why don't you just park it quit on it and go back to the van something you like and I can go back to liking your videos 🤔
Don't be an ass. He enjoys talking to us he's out in the boonies by himself and doesn't have anyone to talk to but his dog. He's a good dude let him do his thang. Save the sarcasm. 😉✌

Great work on the camaro Lee. I can't wait too see the finished work on it.

This car is worth about $5000 here is Pa . Nice Job Man !
Thanks
I believe the Camaro is gonna turn out pretty good.
I will say it takes a special person to take care of a special dog.
Broke good luck with your car
Thanks
Up here in ky we have hobby lobby they have headliner fabric

Puddin also had a 78ish El Camino. Got it running but didnt end up building it, traded it off for something else, i dont remember what.
Yes, that's what I was thinking of
I really like 3 rd gen Camaro’s . I became a car guy after riding in a 3rd gen when i was a kid . I cant wait too see this car done 😎
Good job 👍
Thanks
You know, it's a really good looking car!👍
Thanks
Cool❤
there usually a sticker in the glove box with or a paper stuck in the rear seat with the build sheet
no build sheet or sticker with codes on it

I'd love to have that car! I'd just buy a pair of eBay racing seats to throw in it and call it a day.
If you gave it a wild paint job like the nomad,it will be valued allot more.peace
Lee, I reached out to the Car Upholstory Guys and asked them to sponsor you some seat covers. I guess we shall see
Thanks but I won't hold my breath.
Lee, get her painted & presentable ....Move on to the next one, it Will get better!!

El Camino

There's a small plastic filter strainer in the bottom of the cup.
it's a water filter, it just screws in the bottom of the gun

Hi Lee! 1st COMMENT!!!!!
I would just redo the interior in gray to match the door panels. Or just go black and paint the door panels to match. The red won't match the new paint anyway and it would look great with the new interior.
all it takes is more money
Ah. Too bad you can't buy just 1 cover.
it would be nice
What do you use for the guide coat? Can you use the cheap rustoleum black primer?
yes
When you say taller Springs in the front. Can you please let me know the name brian or the number because I put a whole new suspension under my car and the front seems like it's still sitting low You're sitting up even all the way around p,s, I put to new springs 2 new struts & 2 new strut mounts front & on the back two new springs and 2 shots thanks
I used the front and rear springs off a 1991 RS V8 car
Are you going to do some stripes (rockers, hood or anything)?
emblems, decals and pinstripes
Given the way you are going to l
have to leave the interior I would have shot it in matt black and sold it as a mean machine kind of theme where the unfinished interior would appeal to buyers!
That’s the other car puddin had
yes
Should paint it white with graphics. White looks classy . Don’t show the dents. Good luck.
not on this one, maybe the van
I don't like the slamming.
