This is an introduction of our new RU-vid channel where we will document from start to finish the restoration of our 1967 Pontiac Firebird. We have utilized the knowledge of a handful of other restoration channels to help us and other first timers get a game plan and start moving forward with the rebuild of our car.

You are vinyl village garage certified plus!! Very nice first video and even better a team effort.

@JK_Nex_Garage Год назад

Thank you. We have finally jumped in. A little primitive, but we’ll smooth things out in time. We are confident we will get through this build utilizing all members of your team mentioned in the details.

Right on! Another Firebird being saved! Excited to watch! Welcome to the Firebird RU-vid community!

You can do it!!!! Lots of support in the First Gen Brotherhood!

Thank you. Your content has helped a lot. Thanks for being our fist subscriber 👍.

Awesome guys. I have a 67 Camaro RS in rough shape. I was kinda lost thinking I needed to go in a certain direction. Until I found Vinyl Village Garage. Awesome channel and info. Totally changed my outlook as a first timer like you.

@JK_Nex_Garage Год назад

Great!!! I’m glad we could help. We have found that taking our time and not setting a deadline is the key to staying motivated. Jon at VVG is a great teacher, with his tips and the efficiency to do things without sacrificing quality. Hopefully we can help again. People like you and us are why we started this channel. Thanks for watching.👍

Thanks for the support guy's I just subscribed can't wait to see this Firebird come back to life when I started this It wasn't easy but with hard work you see what I'm capable of doing and you can do the same thanks for saving this bird

@JK_Nex_Garage Год назад

Thanks, your channel has great content and are happy to support it. We are going to have some fun restoring this bird.

First car I ever did was a 69 gto convertible that was almost in 2 pieces lol in a one car garage in 1981 there were almost no aftermarket parts then I live in Ontario Canada sos big time rust , but got it done and drove it for years . Have fun guys and will be watching your journey!

@JK_Nex_Garage 7 месяцев назад

That is quite the accomplishment on your GTO. We would have never taken on a project like this without having access to aftermarket parts and RU-vid. We appreciate your comment and hope you enjoy the journey.✌️

@enforcer5053 Год назад

eeek some serious rust. hope the restoration goes well! good luck!!

@JK_Nex_Garage Год назад

Yes, lots of rust. A lot of work, but we are committed to seeing this Firebird back on the road someday. Thanks for watching.👍

@charliec5653 Год назад

I'm in the same boat as you are. I just picked up a 67 Firebird myself. Mine is very rough, and needs a whole lot of work. I watch Arrowhead Garage as well. Brian is awesome.

@JK_Nex_Garage Год назад

Brian has some great content,along with Jon at vinyl village garage. Not having any experience with auto restoration, we just take our time and do a lot of research. Thanks for watching and good luck with your project.👍

Thanks for saving her! With that said, a couple words of advice. Remember its your car, do it how YOU want!!! Take breaks dont burn yourself out. Persistence will pay off! Good luck!

@JK_Nex_Garage Год назад

We are definitely making it how we want. This is a keeper for us and will probably be handing down at some point. We are taking our time doing little things now and again to keep us motivated, we are in no hurry. Thanks for the advice and for watching.

@TheOneAboveAll-001 Год назад

Sounds great I'm being inspired to continue to work on my 68 bird that is on jack stands right now.

@JK_Nex_Garage Год назад

That’s great. We are beginners, and don’t spend every bit of free time working on the car. We do little things here and there to stay motivated, it’s all part of the end result. Good luck. We are beginners, but if we can help let us know. Thanks for watching.👍

@davidbrown-55 Год назад

This will be a great build. Can’t wait to follow along. Would love to see a video on building that cart, I’m restoring a 68,69 myself and need to make one. Thanks

@JK_Nex_Garage Год назад

It’s a learn as we go, but going to have fun with it. We have about 5 videos on the body cart and how we built it so check them out. Thanks for watching and good luck with your 68,69.👍

@dreamchasergarage690 Год назад

Good stuff, looks like a great project. I have a '68 that is in similar shape (complete, with drivetrain, but needs full rebuild) and it's channels like this that inspire and inform. Thank you and keep up the good work. Cheers :)

@JK_Nex_Garage Год назад

Thank you. Our lack of knowledge will show, but we are having fun and learning along the way. Even the little things like stripping seam sealer every now and again keep us motivated knowing we are moving forward. Enjoy restoring your ‘68 and keep us updated on your project.👍

@LakeAndLodgeGarage Год назад

Just found your channel today. Not sure how I missed it. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you folks.

@JK_Nex_Garage Год назад

We really appreciate it. I’m sure we will be reaching out for help from time to time. Thanks for watching.

@charlieseidelmann6702 Год назад

Nicely done! I am in the throes of a '67 Camaro resto- mine was actually in worse shape as far as sheetmetal goes.I have learned a lot from the same channels you mentioned, and wish I had found them before I started. I am curious about the panels that are below the rear seat base- they don't look familiar to me. Keep up the good work, looking forward to the build!

@JK_Nex_Garage Год назад

I’m thinking your talking about the traction bar bracket? If you go to Firebird Central and search traction bar you’ll see what I mean. Let me know if this is what your looking for. We’ve had our car for about 2 yrs now and after a lot of research are just getting going. We appreciate you watching.

@charlieseidelmann6702 Год назад

@@JK_Nex_Garage I am referring to the plate in the view at 3:10 in this video. I have never seen them, but having only been around 67,68, and 69 Camaros, maybe it is something exclusive to the Firebirds? In any case, I'll check out Firebird Central for verification. Thanks!

@JK_Nex_Garage Год назад

Your welcome, I am really only familiar with the 67’ Firebird because that is what have. I really haven’t done much cross referencing to Camaros, but maybe I should.👍

@jayelbee1111 Год назад

I wonder if he is getting a Pontiac 400 V-8 engine and a manual transmission?

@JK_Nex_Garage Год назад

Not sure yet. May go from the column shift automatic to a console auto, but I do miss the manual transmission. Haven’t had one of those in many years. We have a lot of work ahead of us and plenty of time to figure that out before purchasing. Thanks for watching.👍

@Ds755rxz 3 месяца назад

Just have one question. How did you get over the apprehension about making a mistake on a classic muscle car?

@JK_Nex_Garage 3 месяца назад

We always knew we want a classic muscle car (after having a ‘68 GTO when we were younger), the only apprehension was how much restoration did we want to get into. Having never done this before, it was a little intimidating making that decision. After getting into this car now we made the right choice going basically ground up. There are so many areas you can’t see when the car is all together. At the end we will know we have a solid car and if there’s any issues, it’s on us (hope not). Hopefully this answers your question. Thank you for watching and for the comment.✌️

@michaelcjones9883 6 месяцев назад

Where are u getting your parts.

@JK_Nex_Garage 6 месяцев назад

We have bought a lot from Classic Industries, Firebird Central, Ames Performance, AMD, and various swap meets. It’s pretty much based on availability. Hope this helps and thanks for watching.👍
