Fixing Brakes on a '68 Camaro: Hillbilly Engineering to the Rescue! 

Ohhhhhhhhh - LOVED the "seize the moment" comment! Good one, Danielle! Bringing up the calibre of the channel, one jibe at a time.

Primer is designed to absorb the paint ! Which means it absorbs water ,oil an everything else.

Whoever buys the Camaro can clean the glass ! Dan is putting it together for whoever wants to buy it can do the cleaning of glass !

Looking at this car when you fired it up to test for brakes, I think it is amazing what you took from a pile of rusty pieces and came up with - 2 Camaros - running and driving. My hat is off to you, man.. 🇨🇦

The madder Dan gets, the more Danni Pokes him!😂

Fabricoble: My absolute FAVORITE style of building stuff.

Well done, love how you save these projects.

The larger reservoir is always for the front brakes

I love Camaros. I think you did a hell of a job on that car man. Hell of a job

N A P A , No affordable parts around!

Not even remotely a Camaro fan, but happy to see an abandoned pile of parts become a car again for someone who is.

Dan I believe the guy that made an offer said he would buy it if it run drives and stops so it can get on the trailer to take home. I would probably buy a master brake cylinder and put wheel cylinders in it and charge a little more

The port on the back of a brake master cylinder, closer to the firewall, usually operates the front brakes. The port on the front of the master cylinder, near the front bumper, usually operates the rear brakes

Dan, Daniel my brother!! Outstanding job!! Out-freaking-standing!!! Great job! That door not latching would drive me nuts, but that's just me! Chevelle time!!! Signed - Your friend, the Cancer guy! 😊

Excellent work guys🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼

Great job Dan!

It’s ready to be released into the wild, good job,young man!

This video reminds me of the early days of DD Speed Shop. Now, Dani is so good bleeding those brakes. Oh yeah, so glad you washed those windows. Cheers!! 😎

You guys are killin it on the vids. Great teamwork !

Dan, you really look good with that Camaro! Daniel looks really good with it too. Plus, with so many people out here being Camaro fans, keeping the Camaro around for a while could increase interest in your channel. Just sayin...

Your Hot rod Camaro is looking awesome indeed. Running and driving too. Keep up the great work.

❤ A full gas tank is flammable. An empty gas tank is highly explosive. Gas burns Gas fumes combust

We need to see Dan’s curly hair routine

Looking better and better every day might be a keeper DaN just like Danny a keeper haha ❤❤❤❤

❤ I love your videos, awesome content😊

love the current build

Hey Dan and Danielle, Dan you have a hell of a great helper. Danielle does a good job when it comes to bleeding brakes. Also, I seen that she's pretty strong when you two put that other rear end in the 67 Camaro. She lifted her side up like it was nothing. You both work together good. Love your channel, cars, all your videos and Danielle. Take care and be safe. P.S. I still would like to know what you want for your 47 Chevy.

Hate to tell Dan the overspray on the windows wont come off with rain 🤣 neither will the runs 🤭

Alright, alright, alright !!! So, drink JOYBURST !!! It keeps your brake technician happy, even in the rain, LOL !!! She starts, she stops, she`s ready to go on the auction block !!! Rave - On Danni and Dan !!!

Good luck selling it DD. Closer to your dreams. Well deserved. P.S. Fabricobble is my new favorite word. Fits at least some of my work too. Like Derrick from VGG said..."If it works, is it really a bad idea?".

GOOD JOB U 2!.... YA INTERNET PEOPLE ALWAYS RIGHT........NOT!

car looks AMAZING ,brought back from the grave would kill for this car

Let's move on to the next ride 😊

You forgot to say "it is what it is"!

Dan the floor pan man that was a great video the camero came out nice. Looks good with those wheels.

Thanks for sharing this video with us

You’re lucky with the wheel cylinders! My ‘66 Caprice has the hook /loop over the top bolt, style. Not the two bolts behind where the brakeline and bleeder is. Like EVERYONE ELSE HAS!!! 🤘🤘😂😂

Mr Clean Magic Erasers gets the oil finger prints off great!!!👍👍

As a lifelong bow-tie lover, I could not IMAGINE living near Dan & Danni. *hears a noise , *drops dinner silverware… “…C’MON, HUN!! Dan’s pulling something out of his grrrrage!” Fun times.

Great job buddy but primer is supposed to absorb paint and will absorb grease the same.

It must be raining there it sounds like it's downpouring.It's raining here too. 😬😬

Fabracobble it!

I hope you get good money for that 68 . Good luck Dan

Now it's ready for a cage, QA1, etc. ... nice

Really like the black out front head lights. Too bad not street legal or at least in Tennessee. Reminds me of drag racing at Formosa raceway in central California. I Liiiiike it.

great work mate

Let’s gooooo. It’s time for another good video 👍👍

I didn't lose my mind that you didn't clean the windows,I've been watching you along time that would be a rookie assumption lol.Seriously though Dan AMD should sponsor you, no one replaces more sheet metal than you.

If this car came with standard drum brakes all the way around, and the lines are 1/4 inch lines it really doesn't make any difference which line is for the front brakes or the rear brakes although the standard is usually the front of the master cylinder is for the front brakes. There is no proportioning valve as there is no reason for one if you have drum brakes all the way around. There is of course the block where the brake light warning switch (the one that warns the driver if they lose brakes on either the front or the back and of course there is no total brake failure as the dual master cylinder is the design to enable the driver to have at least some brakes (imagine what would have happened when I had a brake hose fail on my 56 Chevrolet and the pedal went right to the floor, fortunately I was not going too fast when that happened and I was able to stop the car with the emergency brake handle). If you just want to only have rear brakes plug off the port on the master cylinder that feeds the front brakes (I generally used a fitting with a partial line and brazed it shut. This will isolate the feed to the rear brakes. I purchased a 72 Chevrolet 4wd truck and it was pulling real hard to one side on the front brakes. Well when I went to investigate I found that someone had blocked off the passenger side line with a small nail and of course it disabled that caliper. Years later when I was a RPS P&D Contractor I used the company van (mine was down for repairs) This braking system was a four wheel disc brake set-up and the rear calipers were metal to metal. Well I remembered the "nail trick" from before and hobbled down to my shop and blocked off the rear brakes and just used the front ones. Of course I took some tools with me in order to remove the nail when I finished my route and I gave management hell for not having a complete brake job done on that truck (the coordinator who sent that van out for brake repairs really did not know what he was doing). Really the things people do.🥸

Just a little piece of information. I know from having a Napa in house at a former employer. Napa marks up items 2-300% in most cases and they also go out to the 3rd decimal point in pricing to get that extra cent out of you.

That's the problem with rattle can primer you buy some epoxy primer in a gallon can and spray it on yourself and it won't rust for years...

Awesome guy...car is great

NAPA valley CA prices at Napa auto parts!!!!! NAPA Valley would be appropriate 💰 ‼️

1967 CAMARO in my opinion the the best looking out the rest had Nova's & Chevelle's

Great vid Guys

Yeah Napa has always been over priced but they have some hard to find stuff and they usually last longer 😂

Come on man how much are wheel cylinders $7

Luv u guys Great stuff 👍

Dude!!! Brakes R us!!! Great job!!!✌️

I wouldn’t trade my 69 for every car you own and I’m not being mean I just really love mine. It’s hugger orange factory 4 speed and it came from California LOS plant and it was used in a bank robbery in California and they caught them here so my car is an Outlaw it took me 25 years to get it and I’ve had it 25 years so I love my ride. And I do what you do. Glad to see you save another one. Now give me a run down on that one. What is it I see the AC dash.

In Australia, we plug rear breaks.

Man that car is looking good wish I could afford to buy it great job you guy's

Yes Sir!!!

You think regular steel brake lines are hard to work with, try stainless steel, it is worse yet. :>)

Use a cupped head drywall nail. Cut to about 1/2 inch long, remove line at master and insert, reconnect line . have done this on side of road when line popped

That’s a good looking cam a row

Good job

Cool car brother I liked that nova and corba

In my area NAPA stands for, never any parts available!

Man your pal Mortske just scored a bunch of tri5 stuff he paid peanuts for. Maybe you can get his lazy ass to ship you some you need. LMAO great car even though its a battle. The best shit dont come easy..look at your woman hahaha... gotta be $20k now

I posted before. About the reciever hitch. I was wondering if you want it. I'm in WPG

Front is usually the back and the smaller reservoir

Good work. Dan. Didy

Can agree about Napa prices over here in New Zealand the gpc group aka Napa bought out or national parts chain (Repco) and now the price are through the roof

Tough stuff interior cleaner will remove grease from paint and primer .walmart is the cheapest

Thats a nice water bottle box sorta thing haha 😂

Dan you need to put in the head lights❤❤❤❤

That's going to make someone a nice project.

absolutely love this Camaro!! Sell it to me!!

There are different grades of Dawn liquid soap, you must have grabbed the wimpy version, Danni is a pro brake pedal pumper.

Keep it

If anyone hasn't seen all the videos, they would never know how it started out

Dan vs ‘68 Camaro Brakes, LETS GET READY TO RRRRUMBLE!

I call NAPA ,NASA, because the prices are out of this world ...

Heat the latch up

Napa, way too expensive… but someone’s ( us ) gotta pay for all those racing sponsorships !!!

A field kept parts car originally, then rebuilt from left overs out of the initial project car is a pretty nice bonus Camaro Dan. You keep hinting about new digs on the horizon are you close to finding something?

❤gold one done done rider

1/4 in line for the rear

It's Chooch ! 😊

Cool

About the 48. I think people have no connection to it, as it really wasnt/isn't a channel build. I bet if you spent a few vids on it, quick upgrades and spray it, the buyers would show.

Yepper

Raining wow n in California in high Desert here is 116 😢

Come on Dan do the brakes!😎🤷‍♂️

Nice car 🚗 👌 👍 👏 😎 😀

NAPA, the worst offender in the "switching parts" game, they seem to be the worst for their stores keeping boxes and putting substandard parts in then selling as premium parts! This goes all the way back to the 50s/60s!!

what's with the dingle berry gloves?

Brakes lines are ezzy your abull too make it nicely use a pipes as a bender buy hand
