I think it's irresponsible and not cool at all. Is that what Eastwood is all about?...showing people it's OK to do burnouts and peel out every takeoff?
that was a hell of a burnout!!!! loved it. and thanks to the eastwood folks for the show. I learned a lot , (some of it too late), but really appreciate that it is not edited too.
Great job Kevin, I am a all Chevy kinda guy. I haven't favored that style Camaro but you guys did a really nice job on that hot rod. I also am interested in trying Eastwood's products. Man I can't say it enough times that car turned out really good inside and out.
I know this does not pertain to anything here but I am needing help for my 67 Camarillo base coupe. I would like to revive the heater and ac evaporator cases. Since they are fiberglass, should I wash throughly, sand with 180 spray with epoxy then use under hood black? Thanks much my friend. The sled is awesome for sure.
Great series!! I watched them all. You MUST do another build down the line. May I suggest a 1978 Olds Cutlass Calais with a SB Olds (350 DX block with 425 crank) 442 cubic inch engine. You could even paint it Corporate Blue and make it look stock. UMI Performance makes an entire suspension package for the G-Body's. Do It!! You know you want to. Again, GREAT WORK over there. Keep it up. Hutch
The sled just has so much more character, if I had to compare the two. Such a cool series, I'm referencing this constantly with the power project on redoing my 74 Ventura.
Just tuning in first time.... awesome series so far!!! Kevin, I just have to correct you on one thing. You used a rare phrase incorrectly. You should’ve said “nervous as a long tailed cat in room full of racking chairs”. Sorry you’re the 2nd person in my 45years that used that phrase, he was a car guy too.... Great show!
That's what I'd really want to do with a car I just busted my ass on restoring is take it out & rod the shit out of it. What a waste of a great paint job, this why good performance cars are so hard to find in good condition, everybody beat the shit out of them.
4 years later and that 80 grand Z28 is worth $33,000.00. Not sure why you would sink $27 grand into an old Gen 2 Camaro when you can have a Z28 with carbon fiber brakes or better yet a used 2017 1LE SS that is 1 sec slower than the Z28 for $34,000.00 www.carfax.com/vehicle/2G1FZ1EE5F9700825
I'm glad RUclips recommended this build series to me
Are YOU an Eastwood Guy? What did you think of that burnout?
+Eastwood Company I love Kevins YAAAAAHHH and smoky donut at the end Lmao.
Dayummmmm! Can’t wait to see what is next for the sled.👍🇺🇸🤙😃

Awesome show Kevin! I followed you from Trucks to Hands on cars, I hope we all get to see more from you, and The Eastwood Company.
I stood up out of my chair while watching that burnout...EPIC!
that was a hell of a burnout!!!! loved it. and thanks to the eastwood folks for the show. I learned a lot , (some of it too late), but really appreciate that it is not edited too.
Enjoyed the entire series from start to finish. Well done Kevin & team.
Honestly, between the two I'll pick the zed sled. Pure refinement, work of art.
Curious to know what cam you installed. Have to have changed it since the LQ4 only made like 335 crank hp at most all stock.

Great series, hope to see another build!...

Yeah this has been great fun seeing all stages of this iconic car warping in to a new life form.
The sled just has so much more character, if I had to compare the two. Such a cool series, I'm referencing this constantly with the power project on redoing my 74 Ventura.
Hey is the zed sled still about. I know this video is a few years old now
Please keep Hands on cars going!! Us customers and fans really want to see more...
did u have to do any trans tunnel work to fit the 4l80e?
What wheels and tires are on the zed sled?
How many episodes did he say he was as nervous as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs...
Will Kevin be doing more shows?
Pause at this car at 15:45 and check how this car was beautifully designed . My US dream cars are Corvette 96 , Impala SS 96 and 8 more..
that ending with Kevin was funny!
I kept thinking the perfect end would have been for the engine to blow up or he crashes into the new car lol.
Dyno HP=347 -TRQ=334
@05:11 Kevin says, HP=440 -TRQ:418.
so bhp and wheel horsepower?
+TheMarcusGomez I'm confused too.
One would be engine and the other would be to the tires
hey I love the classic's also can't wait to see what u do in stage 2 maybe better handling and boast
Beautiful burnout!
I can smell the pleasing aroma of hot rubber from here in oz.... i love it!!!
Ain't Easy Being Cheesy, Dammit Man I miss the 80's
Would love to see a 1987 Dodge pickup build. Love your car builds, time for a change. William
16:25 on is the best part of the video
New project with Hands on Cars please! Maybe a detailed show on a twin turbo install for Zed Sled??
That's what we want to see !!! That's it !!!
Just tuning in first time.... awesome series so far!!!

Sorry you’re the 2nd person in my 45years that used that phrase, he was a car guy too....
Great show!
I want to put a ls in my car can you do it
GM makes black door locks ...those shiny ones kinda stick out ..
Kevin! The 2015 Z28 is nice, but I'd have the Zed Sled every time!
I can't help but point out how obvious it is that he grew up in the eighties. Lol
hahaha thats very true. He's about as cheesy as an 80's movie too.
=== Best performnce enginer congratulation guys
Love the ending..✌🔫💕😎
looks like u put a posi in it
The car was pushed to the limits at the end.
I don't see tire smoke during a burnout, I see dollar signs.
+alan jackson Eastwood dollar signs lol
26000 in the states yeah...Australia no even possible
That would put Stacy Davids burn outs to shame. Thanks
when In doubt RUB IT OUT !
I own 1977 Camaro .
I’m amazed they actually pronounced it Zed like the rest of the entire English speaking world and not Zee like in the US.
Nice
muy.bonito.d.alaiiket.me.gustaeportivo
LOL...NOW YOU NEED A NEW SET OF TIRES. ROFL
Please make that car manual :(
He's gonna wreck that beautiful car.
Rip the corvette museum
Looks like an 80’s crack head race car
That's what I'd really want to do with a car I just busted my ass on restoring is take it out & rod the shit out of it. What a waste of a great paint job, this why good performance cars are so hard to find in good condition, everybody beat the shit out of them.
thats what i would do, beat on it so you can build again
A few years later and you can get a 2015 Z28 for only $40k
just gonna say... a 6.0 truck engine didnt come in 70-whatever z28... so... i mean. piss poor comparison there. but im all for the zed sled!
