- I totally randomly met the interesting owner of a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro, Frank. He has so many cool stories of the way the car scene used to be. Additionally, he is the original owner of this car and bought it just down the street from the video location in 1970! Fortunately or unfortunately, depending on how you look at it, he is selling it. I wish I had the cash for it. These are becoming harder and harder to find! Check out how all this unfolded because you just can't make this stuff up! Enjoy! Have a great day!

If the old guy put as much effort into restoring it as he does talking crap, it would have been restored years ago... it will NEVER get restored.
A lot of these owners are dreamers that car will sit there for another 10 plus years but it's good to dream I'll buy that in a heartbeat 10 grand sold
New subsriber. Greetings from Holland.
Cool car but a whole lot of work and expense there to restore it. Who knows what parts he has and if you could find them. Those trucks are pretty rough too. Just subbed to your channel.
he sure had that nice car hidden well at his place.
Yeah! All his other projects overflowing onto the camaro. More a shelf than a car at the moment. Lol
My dad bought his first car in the 1980s, and it was a 1969 Camaro (real) z/28, in Cortez silver, with black stripes, sadly the original owners blew up the engine in a drag race, and put another engine in, anyways, that car is long gone now, just thought I would share the story!
Lane Ramsey that’s awesome. Sounds like a sick car. My pops had a 67 corvette when I was young. It got stolen and recovered a few times. Was never the same cuz it got thrashed. Thx for sharing!

All right, your interesting.. lets see where you take us. Stay safe, Have fun,,,,,,,, always FYI; watching outta Cali.. home of LA Street Racers........ Lets go. >> Later in Vlog" >> HOLY SHT, I'M FROM FULLERTON, I know YL like the back of my hand. Bought a car from B&B 20+yrs ago.. Damn son, I'm in Corona @ the base of Saddleback. All hail Knowlwood Burgers !!!
I still have my 69 Pontiac that I had in high school in 1983
Ol beardy is so full of it
i think it is a a 351 M , do you ?
I would buy that car from him
Camaro é um carro 🚗 muito lindo
Did he said $10k ? That's about right is straight no visible rust I'm sure the bumpers and everything else is there nice find dude ...
Yeah that’s what the man said! Shocked me, but I think he could get it if he had most of the parts included. Too rich for my blood. 😂
Helloooooo!!!!!! Anybody that knows anything about racecars KNOWS that the term " FUNNY CAR" came from altering the wheel base by moving the differential ahead thus transferring the weight more over the rear wheels giving the car more traction.
No offence to old Frank , I m sure he ment well
Looks pretty rust free-worth 10K all day-7 or 8 cash would prob buy it!
In today's market it's probably worth the 10K but like you say 7 or 8 would probably buy it! I have owned 1 67 RS Camaro & 7 69 Camaros during my life. I would buy one & improve it a bit & when another one came along that I liked better I would buy that one & sell the old one. Back in 1998 I bought a really clean Green 69 with auto & console for 6 grand. It was a really clean driver quality car that you could get into & go anywhere you wanted to go! One of the cooler ones was a Black 69 with 350, auto with mint original interior, 17 year old black paint that was still extremely nice with front & rear spoiler & rallye wheels for 17.5K in 2005. I sold it to buy a Lemans Blue 69 RS/Z28 a few years later. My last 69 Camaro was a RS/SS Green convertible with manual trans that was extremely nice. Anyhow I am car crazy over 69 Camaros!
Original owner? He didn't take very good care of it.
He would cut and lengthen it !??! Oh My Lanta !!!!
Bruce C No kidding! I had never heard of anyone doing that. Or seen it for that matter. People nowadays wouldn’t dream of chopping up one of these. He’s an interesting cat!
There are More Camaro "Barn Find" videos Than Camaros Produced in That time era.
I'd buy that Camaro in a heartbeat! If nothing else tust to keep it from sitting there rusting out.
The reason the prices of these cars are so high is the Japanese and Chinese came over to America in the early 90s and bought tons of these classic and they are sitting in huge warehouse in there country. Sad. But that is what it is.
Japanese and Chinese people came over here and bought tons of 20 year old Camaros? uh, no.
@@chieftp I've seen the warehouses full of them. Yes !!!! I've been at the auctions watching them pay crazy money. They didn't buy them all bro but they bought tons of them and created an artificial market that drove the prices up. You think Americans are the only ones that like Camaro and muscle cars ??
so, why would someone from another country come here and buy 20 year old cars and stick them in a warehouse? what did that accomplish? also, what is an "artificial market?" most of these cars ended up wrecked or sitting in some trailer trash's front yard rotting. that's why there aren't many left in nice condition. this video is a good example.
@@chieftp wow does it really have to be explained. I guess you have never bought something that you knew would be worth more in the future. Called investment!!! If you need more explanation please just ask
OK. so how exactly is that "investment" of old cars sitting in a warehouse paying off?
@2:04 I see it hiding in the corner and I'm freaking the f@ck out!
I would buy that 69 now!
That needs restored to original . A fool would tub it out and put all that other b.s. into it.
Alot of 67-69 camaros were tubbed out and raced !
Hopefully he does build it. I agree. As far as to many stock ones? I don't know them rears of cars are getting hard to find. Stock is worth more if it's a ss or a rs/ss. That was my only reason for saying it. Yea you can tub it and do what you want but how much are you gonna hurt the value of a restored mint car? If it's a rot box Yea make it race car. If it's solid keep it stock.. Coman sense . Peace!
BUY that car! I bet if you flashed 5K in bank notes in front of his schnoz, he would take it in an instant
just a little B S ?
Still for sale?
Yes, as far as I know. I will reach out to him if you are serious.
Show him $6500 cash. 10k too steep. 10-15k won't make that a gem unless it's all in house. 5k+ in body wheels & paint alone...interior, suspension sheesh the list continues to give that car the treatment it deserves. I've seen 69's more complete online for less than 10k this week.
Wormanatti I agree with you. I think he has a sentimental connection to that car which drives up the price of course. I'm sure if someone had cash in had and ready to negotiate he would cave!!
Janky Driveway Now I think about it even more 5k not a penny more or let it rot. I'm finding 69's all over the US for sale not as bad. This my favorite car ever made. The minute I get the money available buying one. I know a guy with a unfinished restored one I want. The money comes I'm making him an offer. He has so much done to it. It looks goos even in primer. New Hotchkiss suspension, crate motor, full interior, wheels you name it. I want that car so bad!
Wormanatti sounds awesome bro! Keep working towards it. You’ll get it!
Ornage?
I would bet he would take $7500..he just revealed his financial situation is not good..you have to bring cash wads of 100's would get it. If he cried you moght have to do $8k..but not worth $10k
Car isn't worth that it's basically a hull and I find better cheaper deals than that every day and I collect first and third gen camaros
It astounds me how people who ought these new end up letting their cars deteriorate to the point where you see them like this POS. You hear all the grandiose plans they had for it, yet here they sit with crap stacked on it and coated with dirt and mouse piss. I bought a 65 Mustang from the original owner. It was a daily driver for over 50 years. Running and faded, but clean.Theres no reason to let your car go to shit like this. Jesus.....
That camaro is worth 10 grand all day long
No it not.....that's a money pit....lengthen the wheel base....that will make it worth a ton....
I agree that car is easy 10 thousand dollar car junk is going for that much now
You actually pulled over to see that POS truck? Come on.
Heck yeah I did!
It's just what we do you meet great people and find parts we all help each other hey great find!!
10k for a shell...NOT. Go to a junk yard find a shell. Classic industries has ever but and bolt to these cars right down to the metal.
Looks like someone kills cars
maybe 2,000 its pretty bare alot of missing parts
Yes I collect first and third gen camaros and two grand is about it for that car your going to have twenty grand in restoring it and that's doing the work yourself and it's only going to bring 25 at auction restored if your lucky it's nothing special just a plain camaro hull
2 thousand are you kidding you wouldn’t touch this car for that money. I would’ve to see a lot more of this car like the under part of it. But 2 thousand keep dreaming you pay more than that for a part car.
You Could have walked away with that car .
if u seen what i got for free u would sh ur self just one thing was a 79 short wide bed 4x4 with under 37,000 original miles in perfect condition full option truck even has cruse control then 2 camero's with a bunch of parts extra motors 2 were 454 strokers one had 6000 miles on it the other has 38,000 miles on it 70 high boy with dana 60 and 80 good clean body just needed a motor 38 foot motor home in good condition running and driving with a 454 stroker crate motor in it inside very nice lot of 350 4 bolts and 327 one of the 327 had been 4 bolted plus some other cars and trucks one with a ls 350 in it i give that to my friend just needed a trans rebuilt 4x4 it is a nice truck but he needed a nice truck
ps even got a tunnel ram set up with it for bb chevy
Man that's sad when people take a car like a camaro,chevelle,gto and tub them, if it was me I would restore it to origional . And I have a buddy that's an old hippie like him lol
That’s exactly what I was thinking when I heard his plans. I think that back when he came up with the idea to tub and lengthen the wheelbase, like 20+ years ago 😂, these cars were much more common and less special.
Janky Driveway hahaha yeah ,he's also drove it many years origional lol I guess he just wanted to do something different. I would love to see more of this guy though he seems like he has tons of stories
Trevor Gamble cool thx for letting me know bro. He’s totally an interesting old codger.
Trevor Gamble it really depends on the condition, options, and what is left of the original drive train. I bought a 69 roller that needs body work. I'll be damn if I want to put back the original 6 banger, auto tranny, and open diff in it let alone try and find it. It will be boring to drive. So why waste time and energy to find those parts when I can put an LS3 crate, tko600, a Moser 12 bolt rear, mini tub, and ridetech suspension in it?
Ray Garduque good point. I didn’t get a chance to see the condition of the original 350/400. If they were “rebuilt” that might make the price worth it. How much did you get your ‘69 for.
Well first of all thanks for not calling your presentation: “ Barn Find” or “ Abandoned”. Good presentation...
Please buy it from him before he destroys it .
Google Obama and Larry Sinclair
First off tub it? (Cringe) But what in the blue blazing hell!!!
He wants to lengthing it??? Someone needs to make a program that people can build their project on a computer and actually see what their (nightmare) project would turn out like. But not their build but compare it to building it each vehicle back to original, street car,resto mod etc. And show them what each build when finished what it would be worth. How much to build each. Etc.
Then most of these people could see what a mistake they are making.
Just my thoughts.
P.s. i understand everyone has their own vision of their dream car. But yikes
Get the car off him before he tubs it and absolutely ruins it ... some guys got no idea how to treat a classic..
Ticonderous1 I wish brotha!!! I lack the time and cash to liberate that fine piece. It’s just down the road though. I think about it every time I hit Del Taco!
$3500 would be my offer, not a penny more for the Maro. But then again I would rather rebuild the small block in my 1946 Chevy pickup.
It's not the year 1995 anymore. Your not getting nothing close to a 69 Camaro for 3500 lol
4 years later. That car is easily worth 15k not a dime less. Being a one owner brings the value up significantly as the history will not be as messy.
It's a pile of shit dude lol
He want 10k for a peace of shit that's not running kick rocks
FADC_ DAMAGE If you can tell, that’s my initial reaction too. I go you want 10 grand for this? Then I said wow. Lol. It is nothing but a shell but it somehow is still cool because of how old it is. That being said I haven’t tried to buy it. 😂
Both of you guys are wet behind the ears. For $10k if it is a solid body car, it is a good deal. Especially if he has the original motor/trans/rear. It sounds like it is an original SS? If it is and just needs assembly, not bad. Try looking for a running 69 camaro in the same condition as this car. At the cheapest for a solid body plain jane 69 running car, your looking at , at least 15k. So, can this car be assembled and driven for 5k? I would say "yes". You have to be able to recognize a diamond in the rough. (10k is way to much if this car has any rust, or major mods)
bullitt65 He did say he has the engine and trans in his garage. I never did see it tho. Who knows. It would need all the little stuff like glass, interior, tires and all the rubber hoses/lines. To the right person that may be a deal. To me (as you can see from my project vehicle) it’s a little out of my price range. And that’s an understatement.
bullitt65 wet behind the ears. 😂 nice.
