man !! its a dream live in the USA ..... hi from argentina sam KEEP GOING !!
Wheels look sick. They are the right color and design for the car.
Those are directional rims,you have the back right tire on the left and the left on the right on the corvette. Just a heads up.
@@selfdestruct2319 I had to watch the video 3 more times. I see it.
Sell a car man i have cash!!!!!!
17:02 I can’t be the only one that noticed the rotation of the wheels is opposite . Sam either put the wrong rear wheel or the front wheel on the wrong side.
Noticed the same thing.
From the first wheel he put on I noticed and it’s still bugging me lmao
@@SpookyDscary OCD Mode kicked in as well . Ooofta
Saw it unfortunately seems like he might have to get the rear tires swapped
Yep, they are on wrong.. came here to let Sam know.
And that right there is the main reason why I would never paint a car a matte sheen. The difference between the rocker and the quarter and the rear bumper are so drastic and quite frankly, the car looks like pure crap now. You have to time it perfectly in between coats when you are doing that type of finish and now, you can’t buff or wax it. Sounds good though lol
It’s hideous now with matte black and those god awful wheels.
I agree. The paint job was half ass. Why in the hell would you pay someone to paint your Vette in their garage?
Yup paint job is horrible. Can see difference so clear
I agree. I wish he would have kept it glossy, then do a matte PPF if that's how he wanted to go. It looks so much better than this paint. The panel transition is terrible.
that's why MATT should always be a wrap!
only on a RATTROD you could get away with it...
heck even with a paintroller XD
You could fiberglass the the cracked valance with some 181 cloth and Epibond 420. 420 is an Epoxy made to stick to plastic that we use in the aerospace industries.
Keep the vids coming I enjoy you figuring out what’s wrong with the cars especially these vets
I don't usually dump on other people's stuff but you said to let you know what we think. I think it looks like you rattle canned it with poorly shaken primer.
And the side skirt is a completely different shade of black
I thought the same, flat black is overdone and ugly on this vette may as well wrapped it. Also the wheels show off the stock brakes not a good look.
id never paint a nice car matte
Yeah, sorry guys, but that looks awful.
Agree 100%
Now it definitely looks like the type of car that would get repo'ed!
He created a GHETTO SLED
Didn't you put the left and right tyres wrongfully on the car? The right front rim looks fine, the right back rim looks the other way installed
Yes exactly. Someone probably likes it. I don't like any of these flat black paint jobs. The color always looks off from panel to panel. Or it looks like a primer.
Back in the day we had light gray, dark gray, and black primer for our cars. We used it as a stop rust finish while we saved up for a real paint job. I liked it on my 55 Chevy and 57 Chevy. Not so much today.
@@ronmorris3823 saved up for that paint job that never came.
The wheels complete the look.
Awesome job.
Happy Fathers Day to all the Dads out there. I know Dads love Corvettes, so I've been saving this one for you guys!!!
This dad loves his c5, and can’t wait to get the funds up for an LS7 swap.
Thanks, Sam. Happy Father's Day I do enjoy your content
Super duper Sam, I love how it looks! Hey... wait a minute... is this the first car you actually finished?
HAPPY FATHERS DAY DAD. I LOVE YOU
Thanks man ,love the matt color scheme on this one
I think with a nice gloss black it would've been a better look, but no doubt it's still badass!
I agree
Agree, Gloss would have been better, but then again so would have painting the trims to match the wheels instead of leaving them Gloss.
Yeah, the matte is not great. It gives that "this guy probably has a pit bull that he mistreats" impression. Gloss black and non-black alloys would look better.
Never liked black on a corvette,matte really looks bad
@@edwardranno7119Agreed 💯 to me Victory Red is the only color for a Corvette.👍
This was a very cool video. One of the more enjoyable recent ones.
I wasn’t sure about those wheels at first but with the matte black paint, they definitely work.
I think the wheels really added to the attraction of the car. The matte black finish is a dated appearance hot several years back but doesn’t hold up to good old gloss black paint.
Agreed. My brother had a '55 Chevy hot rod painted flat black in the late 1960s. It is definitely not new.
Agreed. Matte paint is a dated look.
Wheels look cheap tbh. They aren't terrible and it could be worse, but usually you can spot when the wheels are cheap just by looking at their design/finish and this is no exception. Doesn't take a genius to tell that those wheels on AMG GT are much better (ignoring the color difference).
Tbh I think matte black is still a bit better than that awful clear coat primer “color”.
agreed, was a 100k looking car now about 500 bucks
Honestly I don’t like the matte black, matte just doesn’t look good on anything imo. However the wheels do really compliment the paint and work together well, I’d say it looks alright.
Yeah matte black looks cheap and the finish isn't even per panel which cheapens it more...you're right though the wheels do compliment the black.
Matte black looks great on off-road builds but on sports cars/muscle nah maybe some classics. Now if it’s wrapped a unique/distinct matte color depending on the car it could work. But what do I know I’m a bmw driver
I love the contrast of the rims and color of the car
It's always amazing all you guys who do this are always the only or highest bidder at every auction...
Wow, Sam!! It’s nice to see you semi-complete a project!! Looks really good!!
The flat black wouldn’t have been an option for me. Those cars look amazing in high gloss. Satin maybe at the very least. Flat black just looks like someone took out cans of primer and covered up the old paint. The nice thing is that it’s your canvas, not mine. Enjoy that great find and if you sell it I hope it brings you good money.
Totally agree!!! Any of these new flat grey cars, trucks and SUV's look horrid.
It honestly looked better before the paint, idk if it's the colour or the way it was applied but it looks weird now
Color*
@@A86140 ??
That new exhaust sounds incredible!
I love the bronze copper wheels over black wheels. Make so much more of a difference and just pop! Would love to get a set for my mustang at some point.
I just don't like matte paint. It looks unfinished to me. The bronze rims aren't my thing either, but they are better than gold coloured.
I think if you really wanted it to stand out, a colour shift would have been cool. Black to blue or black to a really dark purple would have been epic.
That matte is so disgusting, I cringed so hard
I never been a fan of matte paint as well. Nothing a nice coat of regular clear won't fix. lol
Looks like someone sprayed it with primer
All riced out. Turned a decent car into some kind of stealth boy-racer dream. Visible zip ties and huge wing would have completed the look. Way to take value out of a car.
@@heiner71I'm glad I'm not the only person that thinks a potentially nice car has been ruined.
After the paint job it looks like you bought the Batmobile off of Wish.
Wow, the new paint job. Off the hook. Great job
At first I didnt think I was going to like it withe matte finish, BUT you nailed with the wheels too! SWEET!
I’m kind of disappointed in the result although I am not a big fan of Matt paint so that’s just my opinion.
Agreed, it looks like a rolling chalk board.
I agree it looks awful and the shut lines between panels are out
In my youth I would see cars being driven finished only in primer, only to quickly rust as the primer wasn't waterproof. I still don't like the primer look.
Not an attractive car, the ZR1 front end looks wrong, and the wheels don't work.
flat black paint jobs, blacked out trim/wheels is like widebody kits, it's starting to get a little boring/tired looking cause everyone customizes their car with these same mods. 🙄😴
The only complaint i have is that the wheels arent spinning the same direction. they are opposite... (the orientation i mean)
Sounds awesome at the beginning!
If you wanted a matte finish you could have just sanded the car with 600 grit.
Or honestly why not just wrap it? I cannot fathom why ruin the car paint for something that could have been achieved for similar pricing to just wrap it
@@ts8quintox right? A wrap would've been easier and cheaper and def the way to go for this. They took all the panels off already anyways.
@@KNS_Racing yepn a wrap would look cheap.
Not a big fan of the matte paint or the wheel design. Just not my style. More power to you Sam! I can’t wait to see the 599 back. I have not seen a video for that in awhile, even from the guys working on it.
Gorgeous result!
Man, you nailed it. Absolutely beautiful
I think the gloss black looked better in my opinion, and re powdercoated the oem wheels.
It may just be the light but it looks like parts of it are darker than other parts. I do feel like the gloss black trim may make it look a lot better maybe some bronze stripes as well. It currently looks like the finish on aftermarket body parts. It could look so much better.
Yeah. I saw that too, the sideskirts and the rear look like a darker black thank the rest of the car.
I think he doesn't actually care about it being any better than a 10 foot car for TH-cam. He has ZERO attention to detail vs a lot of the people I actually subscribe to.
Sounds so much better!
I found it a refreshing style and the new rims really set it off IMO.
Matte black is so last decade. The wheels may be an odd design, but the bronze adds a welcome touch of colour. Still a fairly good buy and well worth checking in on the rest of the work.
The first statement reminds me of a women.
I like the direction of the front rims. Color and style. Awesome!!!!
Looks great Sam 👍🏼
Not a fan of the black, but overall best project in a while and nice to see a quick turnaround.
The finish reminds me of top gear when Clarkson painted a Porsche 928 with blackboard paint.
same deal
Nice work! Really like the bronze wheels with black paint....I honestly like the glossy finish vs the matt on that car but, that's just my personal preference. The exhaust sounds excellent too. Pretty amazing deal for $20K
Priority, tire is awesome… Military discount also makes it even a sweet deal!
Great look. A nice touch would be gloss black Grand Sport style wheel well extensions. Looking forward to more C7 updates.
Sam, This is Definitely an ULTIMATE Corvette Now! New Wheels Really Set it Off! The Guy You Introduced Me to Keeps Asking Me to be His New Assistant, Can You Let Him Know I’m Not Interested Please…..😅
I Have This Can of Barbie Pink Paint That is Begging to be Sprayed on a Car… Have Any Idea on What we Could Do With It?!?
Thanks for a complete start to finish video Sam!!!!! Awesome content !!!! Two thumbs up !
Hey you got a life that’s so cool. It make watching you videos worth while.
The c7 vette is the best vette! It's a surprisingly practical vehicle! Tons of storage in the rear hatch, and it's MPG is incredible! Greatest Chevy economy car ever!
Where is stepmom at😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
In the backroom talking to her step son. 😂
Sam not putting her on his videos anymore cause she gets more attention than he does !👯♀️
The matte actually looks good with the bronze wheels. However glossy black looks better
Did you notice the front wheels are backwards?
Looks awesome, and the wheels suit the car perfectly!
I dig the matte finish and the rims. It’s definitely a statement car!
I love seeing these quick projects come together. My soul just hurts from seeing grass growing up around them in your pasture. I'd at least put them in a barn out of the FL sun.
The cows like the company.
Awesome to see so much progress! Good candidate for a wrap!
Nice total finish, like the fresh changes. No basic bs, why not try something risky, it payed off
Car looks SICK!! Don't normally like Corvettes, but this one, i'd love to own.
It would look absolutely wild with all of the gloss black matched the bronze wheels. And it would be one of a kind.
I do like the matte finish and and wheels. Zack is amazing, I love his content.
I remember seeing matte finish on Ducati's back in the late 90's. It struck me as a creative way for manufacturers to increase profit margins while offering a lesser quality finish. I mean, we normally paint things because they are faded flat, right? Matte finish is the thin crust pizza of the autobody world.
Them pipes sound killer. I like the bronze wheels against the flat black.
i think it looks different but definitely cool, agree with Sam the wheels and tires make the car look awesome!!!
Awesome results on this Corvette.
The check engine light is the result of the absence of the catalytic converter and oxygen sensors. Other than that, very nice car.
The car looks AMAZING! I probably would have gone with a different tint of wheels, but what you have looks good too! If I were you selling this vet would be a real struggle!
the Wheels are kick ass , really set the flat black paint off nice
I didn't love the paint job until you put the wheels on, it's perfect
Sam- The car looks great despite what others have said in the comments. Not always about the results but your content is some of the BEST on the internet in the car restoration category. Thank you Sam. I just wish you would put more of them out there! Cheers!
Wheels look really good. I’d definitely run them!
GM intended for the C-8 to be what they so called affordable when compared to super cars but the dealers have completely screwed that up for them which is why I believe that the manufacturers should notify dealerships that if they don’t sell their inventory at MSRP or below then they will not receive inventory in the future. Do away with dealerships.
You ended up with a VERY distinctive Vette. Well done.
Hated the matte black UNTIL you put those new wheels on, then: BAM! 🔥
I took a roadtrip in an old pickup with an exhaust leak, wore earplugs the whole trip, worked great
Great tip!
Great to see Sam back off the crac and back to the basics. Good video of a great car! Watch how simple you can fix and flip and make quick clean cash. Happy seller, happy buyer and happy viewer 👍🏻
That's funny, because I was just thinking that the finished car looks like something a crackhead would put together and be proud of. If this is his new direction, Sam's lost the plot.
Nice Rims Sam you have done well with this build
The matte black paint and the bronze wheels look good together.
Love your videos Sam! I've learned a lot of car knowledge from your videos, keep it up! Also that thing sounds and looks incredible!
That’s what I like to see, a nice solid one build video start to finish no cliff hangers
Bout time 😂
Came out beautiful
The mat black and bronze wheels work perfectly.
I bet you don’t make as much from videos like this instead of having a couple different videos on the same project, we appreciate these start to finish videos this one was awesome!
Like the matte finish but not a fan of the bronze wheels. Gloss black wheels would have been a nice contrast.
I agree 100% the ancient ones called it back pressure I have the same engine in my truck with two mufflers and two pipes and it's the best sounding thing on the road.
I’m not a fan of matte black, especially on a Corvette. Chrome wheels & a high gloss paint job would be my choice. I enjoy your videos & your enthusiasm!
Are the wheels facing the wrong way front/back? Directional.
They are definitely backwards.. the fronts or rears are on the wrong side
Always enjoy your videos. Your problems solving and builds always motivates me to work on my project car. Thanks and keep building.
Back in 1970, the HS bully had a flat black lifted Ford Falcon. Reminds me of that.
The exhaust is mint🔥😮💨
This looks excellent.
I have a feeling Rich is going to want to buy this from you lmao.
I actually really like the wheels. Not a fan of matte finishes though. This one still looks good but I still think gloss is where it's at.
Front wheels are backward
The color of the wheels looks good on the mat black corvette.
I'll tell you what Sam, HOME RUN on the 'vette here.. at the zoom around 16:55 or so seriously giving me Batmobile vibes and I'm seriously digging the flat black with the bronze wheels, the design on the wheels is super aggressive but looks magnificent on the C7, all day long! Nice work Sam, I bust your balls sometimes in the comments about choices, but you definitely knocked it out the park on this one!! Kudos
Thanks Sam I'm a dad with a 97 Vette. I always enjoy Corvette content. I enjoy all of your videos no matter the content.
Happy Father's Day!
I think the wheels have the correct installation side to keep the same design, if the tire has a direction of rotation maybe I have to reassemble it on the other side!
Nice transformation. Good wheel color choice too, overall looks sweet!
Looked way better when you got it from the auction.
Not a fan of the matte finish
Sam not bad on this Corvette! We haven't seen Stepmother in a while!
Great transformation, I’m sure it’ll flip well.
I like the bronze wheels. I think some more bronze accents might be need on the car to make that black matte really get noticed. I also like the valve open idle exhaust note. Sounded low and mean. 🙂
Love the Stingray. Hate the matte paint. I just don’t get why people want their cars to look like primer.
Matte looks good with the bronze wheels. Only thing is the spokes from front wheels to back are pointed in opposite directions
The wheels look great and the matte paint looks good.
The new exhaust sounds great 👍
