- You MADE Me Do It!! New CARPET, FILTHY Air Ducts, DASHBOARD Resto: 73 Camaro INTERIOR Install PART 2
Got a TON of stuff done in this video! Carpet brand was Auto Custom Carpet INC. Also completely cleaned the air ducts and restored the heater box and fixed the dash that was lifting.

Have to say I was shocked to see how much damage/dirt/rodent activity was in everything. So worth the extra time invested. She’s getting there Ryan.
Me too! I’m so glad I took out that heater box. Smell is completely gone now (finally).
Dude. You. Are. The. Real. Deal.
I appreciate that man!
When you take something apart, you really take it apart!!! Can't believe all of the stuff packed in around the heater core! And great idea to use the wood clamps to straighten out the dash. Love watching your videos.
Heck yeah! I figured I should get it all done now, glad I did!
Incredible eye to detail Ryan, you are completing a concours level restoration. This is going to be an un believable car to enjoy for many years when your finished. Thanks for sharing 👍
Thank you for watching Dennis!
Damn, I am glad you pulled that dash! what a infestation. Love how you share your mistakes as we all can learn! Very good video!
Thanks Jim! Exactly, I try to tell all of my mistakes that I make for others to learn from like you said 👍
So much better in every way! Well done Ryan!!!!
Thanks man!
Ahh, I was expecting a new video soon, keep up the good work!
Thanks 👍😎
Guilty...I'm glad you took my advice on the dash (20:50)...
They make a "seal kit" for that HVAC box...
When you're done, take a can of Lysol and spray it into the plenum intake ahead of your trouble light at 17:15, and as someone is spraying, move and cycle all of the doors and HVAC controls in the dash. This is your insurance policy for anything you missed. Lysol kills mold, and mildew on contact, and 99% of household germs. Lube everything in the dash, last chance. I'm a retired Ford, Lincoln, Mercury technician and an enthusiast...
Gotcha, thanks for the tips!
You always DO CLEAN and NEAT JOB. Who knew steamer would work I for sure did not. Carpet seeming was Awesome saved bunch of money on another set of Carpet.
Ryan, just some outstanding work today. I've had a couple 2nd gen. F-bodies so much of this is frustratingly familiar. In particular, really glad you took the time to clean the heater box and pitch the old heater core-those are a pain when everything is installed. Keep up the good work and thank you for your time.
No kidding bro, very good idea to replace the heater core now. Looks like it had been leaking judging from the corrosion that was on it.
Definitely glad I did too! Was on it’s way out for sure. Thanks for watching!
Bet you’re glad you pulled that heater core box out great video very patient young guy
Beyond glad!
One of the best channels on TH-cam. I just gave it a thumbs up beforehand.
Appreciate ya 👍🙂
Looking good Ryan👍👍
Thanks Richard!
Very impressed Ryan. The interior, especially the dash, is what we see more than anything else. It’s what we live with at the end of a project. How many interiors are left incomplete because the excitement of a project nearing completion/driving overtakes the need to get all the details complete. I predict you’ll enjoy just sitting in the car and looking around the interior, nearly as much as you will enjoy driving it. Two big 👍👍
Thanks! Yeah you are so right on unfinished interior projects. I can sit down and have no regrets thinking “I wish I would have done this..” etc 🙂
Great job my friend! Thanks to share with us! 😄👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks for watching!
Outstanding detail in your work Ryan, you are doing an excellent job in this restore. Like I said in your last video it is bringing back some memories from my cars I did around 30 years ago. I think I did the same thing you did when it came to the carpet fitting but you rebounded perfectly . Really enjoying watching you bring this old baby back to life. I’ll be watching for the next video when you find the time. This beats the hell out of trying to find something on tv to watch.
Thanks again Larry! Glad I can provide you with some stuff to watch 🙂
great video Ryan. Enjoyed every minute of it. Awesome job. Anxious for the next one. Have a great day and stay safe.
Thanks Ron 🙂
Great work!
Thanks Mike!
I'm continuously impressed Ryan. Your attention to details is what makes this one lucky car. Enjoy the ride!
This young man is a master at such a young age. I said it to him in the past and I will say it again. If I ever need a car restored then Ryan will be the first person I phone. The fact is that the perfection of his work is second to none. I only have one question for Ryan. Are you open for restoring cars for customers? I am sure one of your followers have a car that really needs to be fixed up to its former self. If so then drop a link where and how you can be contacted. This Camaro is a awesome advertisement of your handy work 👍
Thanks guys that really means a lot! At this point I just don’t have time to work on customer cars with my normal job, but I would like to eventually move in that direction down the road after I pay my school loans all off and get a bigger work space 🙂
Absolute perfection, I wouldn't expect anything less from Ryan. I want that car!
As always, thanks Al!
Well done bro you doing very good job I really like what you doing👌
Thanks man!
Ryan, your Z28 is going to be better than new when you complete it. I’m so glad you restored your vents! I was thinking “Ryan steam that carpet and it will lay down” and the next thing you said was “steamer”. You pay so much attention to detail and that’s great!
Heck yeah, thanks man!
Once you are finished installing the carpet, The spray Scotchguard to repel dirt, and protect it, in the long run, it might be a little expensive,, but if you compare to how much it cost to put a carpet, plus it helps if for some reason soda , coffee spilled, it doesn*t stain the carpet, I have done it to most of the cars with happy results, the dirt doesn*t get caked in, you just vacuum it up, like new again.
Good idea!
Damn nice catch ! Looking great
Thanks 😎👍
At first I thought you were a little crazy taking the dash apart but......DAAAAAMN! Good thing you did! That was nasty in there. Good stuff. Got my road runner seat upholstery all ripped out and down to the seat frames. They were pretty nasty too. Now I'm thinking I might want to take a look behind the dash 🤔
I was kicking myself thinking it would all be more work for nothing but my gut instinct didn’t lie when I pulled the heater box! I would say if you suspect any mice were ever around, nows the time to do it 👍🙂
Looking real nice, cant wait to see it done
Thanks Steve!
Nice work...taking your time and detailing will being results..
Thank you!
Great progress!! The was a big nest! Carpet looks great, can’t believe they sell carpet like that.
Thanks man! It took me a long time to find the right factory color that was in stock!
This is the way to do it. Just makes sense to get into every little crevasse and give it a good refresh. It's going to look that much more amazing when it's all said and done.
Heck yeah, finally 100% sure I got everything clean!
You don't swear nearly as much as I do when doing these types of projects LOL
Car is gonna be sweet when done! Nice job!
Thanks Frank!
Good job young man. You're going to have a nice ride that you can be proud of when it's done.
Thanks Jim 🙂
The background music 🎵 is really cool..
I re watch your video, because there so im depth and detailed. Man good good job on building this car right!! I have a 71 camaro so its nice watching how u do something before I tackle it ha ha there not exactly the same but close enough for me
Looking really good. Nice job.
Thanks man
Very smart idea to take the dash out!! You would have been fighting the smell if you hadn’t taken the dash out. Good call.
Definitely glad I did!!
Looks great you are doing a great job.
Hi Lonnie, thanks!
Doing an excellent job brother !! Taking the restoration way further than most people would. I know you can't wait to hear that 350 rumble and put it to the floor !! Keep it going dude, 👌👍👊
Thanks man! Can’t wait 😎
16:28 is "firewall insulation pad" when you talk to someone on the phone to order it...
Good thing you bought that car really needs a good cleaning and you are doing a great job on it another gd job lv it..💯
Thanks James!
bro i really like your work its hard do everything alone
Thanks man!
Awesome video. Nice progress.
Thanks!
Awesome work. Enjoying watching your progress. I think you got rid of the stink. Must feel great to learn and achieve so much already. I'm learning just how nasty mice can be. Their a cars worst enemy.
Thanks Robert, it was tough tracking down the smell but now I’m 100% sure I got it all cleaned up 👍
I redid the carpet in a '78 I had and thankfully it was a one piece kit. Not two like yours. The hardest part for me was getting the holes for the seats and belt bolts right but I got it pretty good.
I wish it was all one piece, wasn’t fun either way haha!
Nice job Ryan.
Thank you 👍🙂
Excellent!!
Thanks Frank!
Nice!. I like that you stayed with the tan color. So many people switch to black, probably many because new panels are usually molded in black. I completely gutted my car, dash, seats carpet, all the panels, roof liner, etc. Dyed new parts to the factory green because its different and matches the tag. The latter isnt as important to me. Glad I didnt have all the nests that you did and my vents were pretty clean. Nice job!
Thanks Curt! I like more original stuff like you seem to like. More work but worth it🙂
U do really nice work!!! Can u please come pick up my Caprice??? Lol great job man.
Haha thanks Marcos!
Looking good.
Hey man, thanks!
Outstanding Ryan! I suspected you’d eventually find a large nest because it was obvious by the amount of mouse pellets throughout the vehicle that it had been infested for years. Now the interior air quality will be perfect. Be sure and keep us informed on whether you are going to make the Columbus show in July. As previously mentioned, I live here and will definitely attend. Cheers! ~ John
I will let ya know! Would be cool to meet up if I can get the car done in time 👍🙂
@@RyanSampsonRPh : I’ll be watching! 👌
Your the man! Keep going!
👍😎
Great content!
Man it's looking really great and coming together now. Is it going to be finished for this Saturday I got plans I need to borrow it. Haha God bless
Haha I wish it was done this Saturday. I will drop the keys off to you if I get it done 😂👍
Panel bond a bolt that you grind the head thin on, in the two spots not used by the factory, along with two more metal tabs. I'm sure you can make them to match.
👍👍
Another great video. What is the target date for the first test drive?
I had a test drive date of July 7th in my mind for the last few months for a car show I wanted to enter in Columbus. Gonna be close with the engine set backs and all the little bugs I have to work out but it might be do-able still!
@@RyanSampsonRPh I hope to start reassembling mine in June. I have a buyer for my Corvette lined up so that will help with the finances for sure.
Hey Ryan, what did you end up using for the carpet padding underneath the rear and on the trans tunnel between the rear seats?
Beautiful job! Like to know from where did you bought the carpet?
Thanks! I ordered it from stockinteriors.com and it was the auto custom carpet (ACC) brand. I really liked that company since they can send you free samples before you buy the carpet 👍
It’s an absolute bitch to get these aftermarket carpets to lay down right, I’ve fought them before. But steam is definitely your best friend in that situation.
I actually think the carpet install was actually the toughest part so far. Never would have thought that. Came out nice but I don’t want to do it again 😂👍
@@RyanSampsonRPh The trick to aftermarket carpet install, lay it in the sun for a few hours, Bottom side of carpet up. Heat up that fiber on bottom of carpet
@@ralphnorton8324 ahh smart! I have only replaced one other carpet before and it was in a c3 corvette so a pretty small area to cover compared to this one. I will try that trick next time, thanks for sharing
@@RyanSampsonRPh Steaming works, but traps moisture in. I suggest you remove the carpet and dry the moisture that is trapped underneath. Just trying to help. And there is moisture underneath. Like the HVAC system, out of sight out of mind until some old fucker tells you.
Absolutely loved the music , thanks for none of that bullshit they play on other channels
Heck yeah, thanks for watching George 👍
Very good boy
Great videos!
Thanks!
Steam, plywood cut to match the floor areas, with weights on top of the wood, leave over night...
Good idea!
Great job. It was a good idea you pulled that dash with all that mess in there. Have you thought about just replacing the harness now that you have it this far apart? I have a homemade dual speaker setup I made to replace that singe speaker. I will send you a picture.
I was looking at the wiring and it really doesn’t look hacked into much at all. The wires feel pretty pliable too so I decided to leave it. When you did your speaker how many ohms was it? This one is a 10 ohm version that I am having a hard time finding a new replacement for 😒
@@RyanSampsonRPh I just used regular speakers so you would have to use one of those custom audio or retro sound units. You may want that if you plan on cruising. How can I send you these pics? Does TH-cam allow attachments in these responses?
@@RyanSampsonRPh th-cam.com/users/shortseIrwDI2xj_Q?feature=share
@@michael1294 Hey man thanks for those pictures, if you have a chance send me an email to carpharm@aol.com. I like how you mounted those from what I saw on the youtube short and was curious on the part numbers those speakers are🙂👌
Looks great, hope you're not leaving that plastic line on the oil pressure gauge. 4 or 6 an hose and fittings only.
No copper.
@Ralph Norton Curious why the oil pressure line should not be copper? I have this on my car and want to know if its a problem.
The plastic line reminds me of the time I used some that came with the oil pressure gauge in the 80's and the 1st time I started the engine after a rebuild the headers got hot, the hose melted, and 65 psi oil sprayed all over the headers causing a flash fire in engine bay. Scared the crap out of my friend and I. Yes we had fire extinguishers, but believe me, the corrosive fire retardant is not something you want all over your engine, what a mess.
@@oldsmanmike2803 Hey Mike, When I installed my first oil gauge, in the 80's also I didn't use the plastic line, as an older man told me about copper line was better. so I did it. But the line always had a slight leak by the connections, an lines are flared, and if you notice on a cold start the gauge creeps up to pressure, and when you shut it off it creeps down. Not truly showing accurate pressure. With the an lines (don't remember if it was 4 or 6) They instantly read pressure, and when you shut it off it instantly goes to zero.
Check your gauge I'd bet it has some seepage around the line on both ends, Now order your parts and get to work. LOL
Hi Ralph, I actually never thought about that line until you said something, glad you did! I will replace it for sure, thanks for the suggestions, this is what youtube should be like, helping EVERYONE out 👌👍😎
Nice work Ryan, how come the carpet is cut under the seat ? Is there a panel that covers that whole under the seat ?
It was like that from the factory for whatever reason so I replicated it (probably could have left it and just cut small holes for the seatbelt wires but I wanted to do what the factory did 🙂)
But the seat covers that area and a small plastic cover goes around the rails so you cant see it at all👍
@@RyanSampsonRPh it’s coming out awesome. I have an 81 Z28 I’m working on it’s incredible and I love working on it. My friend bought it new in 81 and it sat from 1990 to 2019 when I bought it. You can see on Facebook on some of the Camaro pages.
@@JIMFED63 I will have to check it out!
looking sweet
Heck yeah man!
I love your vids highly suggest to get a pair of gloves when u clean thoughts duckts out though that stuff can get u really sick
What was the name of that carpet color
Maybe a New Heater Core while youre at it. Because those are pain in the butt to change or once they break and leak inside the car.
That alt to smell better
For sure!
@@RyanSampsonRPh do you have the motor in yet
@@scottkovacs7634 Still waiting on machine work. My “turn” is coming up in another week they said 🙂
Good lord did you ever tear down that dash.
Big time haha
12:31 whoever made the dashes for GM skimped on 1 clip to save .05 should be kicked in the nuts. I used Auto Goop that hardends well with weight plates stacked on top of the dash when I did mine. Leave it in sun for a bit to soften it up. You did an excellent job of cleaing and repainting. And I thought that I was fussy.
Hahah yeah they really should be! I thought it was really strange they didn’t add that clip in. I will check that glue out you mentioned when I go to add that clip in, thanks 🙂👍!
Mouse turds, 😂 😂 😂!!!
Haha
