Let's take a moment to recognize one of the key factors in this build, this man supportive wife. Together, they have a beautiful build, and likely a matching relationship. Congrats to you both!
We moved into our new house a month ago, and I promised the three moving guys I'd show them my cars, both 2nd gen Camaros. One of the guys commented how the early 2nd gens were their favorite F-body, which is something I also hear at car shows from both casual and serious fans. You would never know it considering the ubiquity of the 1st gens, and now the nostalgic resurgence of the 3rd gens, but its good to know there are enough of us out there keeping these gems on the road for all to enjoy.
Looks great. I too have a 1970 RS/SS I am building that is now torch red but was originally citrus green like yours was. Curious what size tires front and rear and if you have lowered at all. Also, did you mini tub back or keep stock? Appreciate any feedback you can share.
I'm building this model kit right now and doing some background work on the Kit I found your channel and gave it a sub. 🙂Thomas over at The Model Hobbyist
Only Z28’s got the stripes but you could tell the dealer order sheet to have stripe delete. I bought my 70 Z28 in 1981 from the orig owner. 4-speed, cranberry red, white stripes and black custom cloth interior with woodgrain on the doors panels, console and dash. The strike had nothing to do with the lateness of the 70 Camaro or too many 69’s. It was the tooling therefore 69’s were still being built in 70 and were still 69’s on the ownership.
Awesome. . . hey i have a question for everyone. . . Should i build the 355 in the 2nd gen camaro or try to build up a ford flathead engine for it? putting in a T5 speed originally a clutch pedal car, have a 355 and TH350.
It's missing the top chrome window trim. Which does help when it rains. Cranberry red looks close to this red. So why not paint it the factory color. Nice car though. I have a 70 1/2 RS/Z28 with all matching numbers totally restored. It's a fast beauty. LT1 4spd
Funny story about this episode…. After we filmed it we lost the GoPro! It fell off the back of my photographers truck. After searching for a few days I figured it was gone… episode lost! BUT thankfully Kim found it (on the side of the road) and after watching a few minutes of the RAW footage she was able to track me down. THANK YOU KIM!

BUILD SHEETS ARE ALSO UNDER THE DRIVER OR PASSENGER SEATS. Mine was located under driver seat. I was surprised it was all mostly still there and not too rotted. I have found others under passenger seats, mostly rotted. I have had many Camaro's in my life.
Awesome! Hey guys. My neighbor had Camaro either 1969 or 1970 or 1971. It had a type of “electric spray system” all rusted when I saw it in 2000. In the trunk, with a reservoir and tubes going through the fender onto spray the rears tyres. The rumours I heard were: de-ice fluid in winter… but my guess is still with “bleach spritz” for burnouts. Anyone got links to solve my question. 👍🇺🇸🇨🇦👍
Had one when I was going to Boise State University. Moving back to Saipan I left it in the public storage in Federal way. Blue with 350/250hp with two barrel carburetor. About to convert to three speed that was still in the trunk when I park it. I'm in Saipan . Missed that car but I drive a 2000 camaro 3800 series 2 engine.
Great car. I always had a hidden switch to crank the engine that no one knew of. 70 Z28 BB 402 Turbo 400 Vega TC 4:56 12 bolt in high school. Fun car drifting and the 1/4.
@@CarsShopsAndCollections The local Highway Patrol knew me by my first name. They were good people and cut me a lot of slack. I was Yes Sir and No Sir and Sorry Sir when it mattered.
