    I love the T/A man! He didn't over do it and put his own twist to it, nice car!

    That's one Bad Bird! A lot of nice little touches on an icon. As soon as I saw it launch I laughed at his "guess* of 450!!! He knows that car inside and out and I guarantee he knows when it's off a fraction of a hp! You're my hero!!!! Lol

    So refreshing to see a 15" wheel instead of the me too giant billets on rubber bands.

  • @whodahellru8124

    It’s refreshing to see an old survivor tastefully modified with a carburetor and turbo 350 transmission that _actually_ gets down and boogie!
    That launch at the end was nothing but the business!

    I love it! Just goes to show a car doesn't have to be perfect or a super high end, expensive build to be bad ass. Really impressed with the way that car pulls!!

    I'm picking up finally a 68 camero in a few days and this show always gets me motivated man!!! My dad had three 67-69 cameros when I was a kid and it's still my all time favorite. I'm 37 now and should have got one earlier but,....I'm stoked, my dads stoked for me. Its basically stock and drives good so my plan is just doing one thing at a time to make it an awesome car I'll drive and bimble around in. Ordered merch from you guys just now cause I love the show. Great job Shawn keep em coming 🤙

    Greetings from Texas, I owned a '73 T/A, sold it at 25 years old, regret that day loved the 455 pontiac engine, but Burt would be proud of this black one!!! :)

  • @yamahaxs6501
    @yamahaxs6501 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    We all like those ultra high end builds that are pure perfection, but the garage builds are the heart and soul of what we enthusiasts truly are. It's built vs. bought. There's nothing wrong with either one, but built will always get more respect.
