      This particular model and year was always my favorite, as far as looks go. I appreciate Tim improving on the original design without going too crazy.
      I never knew these models had bad steering and bad brakes, and unibody issues. It was always out of my price range, but If I had money to burn, this would the car I'd pick.
      I wonder how much Tim has invested in this, in my head, the ultimate muscle car. $300,000?

      @noble mc Custom American cars are used to be one of a major car culture in Japan around 90’s - 00’s but after the gas price went through the roof, it declined. When I had 91’ Firebird GTA around 01’ - 03’, we could still see lots of F bodies, Corvettes, Astros, Caprice sdn/wgn etc were around. But now you can hardly find these kinds in the streets. However, there are some enthusiasts who love American muscle cars of 60’s & 70’s exist. Btw, we don’t even see many JDM sports cars either and it seems that young generations like iPhones over cars.

    This is what I believe a resto-mod should be. Subtle period correct changes and tastefully modernize the driving experience without taking away the character of the vehicle. Probably the best '68 Camaro in the world today.

    • @stratplayr6997
      @stratplayr6997 5 ปีที่แล้ว +24

      @Jar of Smegma I think he's referring to "character" in the sense of the vehicle's design and aesthetic details. Too many restomods have digital dashes, wheels and interior parts from modern cars. This one looks like a regular '68 from the outside, and the interior also looks like factory spec (except for the large gauges - but they still look appropriate) - this car is very tastefully done!

    No, Tim just realized how easy it would be to put the passenger side rear fender into one of those parked cars... I made the same face with my 450hp '71 Z28 with a 4 speed manual driving down a narrow street with cars parked on both sides... you forget sometimes how easy it is to hang the rearend out instantly....and how easy disaster can strike when you apply just a tiny bit too much throttle. Remember , Tim said it was the SECOND time he had been in the car. Tim , you have one of the coolest Camaros I have ever laid eyes on. You could not have made it better. Steve McQueen would have loved it.

      Projecting. No one knows exactly what he was actually feeling and thinking at that moment besides Tim, even if you imagine you've made an identical face in an identical situation. That still doesn't mean what was going on in his head was identical to what was going on in your head. That's called projecting. You could be totally right, or you could be wrong. I don't know. What I do know is that you're projecting and acting like there's no other answer besides how *you* felt in that moment. That's not a good mindset to have. The intellectually honest answer is "I don't know, but this is what I *think is likely.*"

Yeah, I'd want to check my undies after that. 3 way tie in my book for the best looking car of all time - '57 Chevy, 68 Camaro, 70 Mach 1. Man if I ever win the Lotto - I'll have 2 of each.

      I always thought the 67-68 Camaro's were the best looking but 69 was definitely the best year for Camaro's overall. The all aluminum 12:1 compression ZL-1 427 race ready big block was put into 69 base model Camaro's that year. It also ended up in 2 or 3 Corvette's. The ZL-1 was the baddest big block that Chevy ever made and it was only produced that one year. It was even more powerful than a 1970 LS6 454 and just as powerful as an L-88 427...if not more powerful than that too. Plus it only weighed as much as a 327 Chevy small block in spite of being 427 cubic inches because of its all aluminum construction. Also in 1969 Chevy engineers began using 4 bolt main blocks for their 302 small block that came in the Z28 Camaro. In 1967 and 68 the DZ 302 only had 2 bolt mains so the 1969 version of it was definitely much improved as far as durability. Those little Chevy 302's were really screamers and made awesome power for such a small displacement V8 like the Ford K-Code 289 and BOSS 302 small blocks. Some engine builders like Smokey Yunick were able to get 400 plus horsepower out of them. I really like the 70 1/2 Z28 a lot too but the 69 is definitely my favorite Z. The LT1 350 that came in the 70 1/2 Z was also a really mean solid lifter small block just like the 302 had been. Those two engines both had an awesome sound

    • @jeremythompson9122
      @jeremythompson9122 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@kristoffersparegodt420 70 1/2 is the last year Camaro that I really like. I mean besides the modern ones...the SS, Z28, and ZL-1. Starting in 1971 they all started getting low compression smog engines that weren't nearly as powerful because of all the new federal emissions regulations. They really went downhill badly as far as power starting in 1973 or 74 It wasn't until the early 90's that the Z28's started actually having some real performance again. The IROC Camaro's made pretty decent power for something from the 80's but I've always hated the 1982-92 Camaro/Firebird body style. Plus the IROC was only available with an automatic transmission which guarantees that I would have bought a Mustang 5.0-5 speed instead. The 80's Z28's had an available 5 speed but the 305 that came in those was pretty weak to say the least and the 350 only came in the IROC

  • @shananagans5
    @shananagans5 10 ปีที่แล้ว +192

    These people bashing old American cars are funny. It was a different time, with different expectations. Back then a car cost just a few months (3 or 4) of average income. Of course they weren't the quality level of today's cars. That wasn't really even an option. If GM made a Camaro that costs a year + of the average income, like today, they wouldn't sell any. Nobody could have gotten a loan to buy one even if they wanted to and nobody would have wanted to. Spending a year of your income on a car was just crazy talk back then so no, cars were not of great quality. You also have to keep in mind the 70s cars you see today are 40 years old. They shake, rattle & role. Even many rebuilt cars were put together with aftermarket parts of questionable quality by some guy in his garage. They may look good but they aren't equal to a factory new car unless you spend big $ on a high end restoration.
    Don't get me wrong, I am still not saying they were great quality but they weren't as bad as some people think. No, they didn't last 200,000 miles but they cost far less too. In high school I had a part time job after school & I was able to save that money up for 2 years & buy a new Camaro for cash starting my junior year. That isn't possible for a HS kid nowadays unless they are able to save 30 grand a year mowing lawns after school.
    Anyways, just pointing out it was a different time, with different ideals & different expectations out of a car.

    • @dchawk81

      They were proportionally the same cost. Salaries weren't as high then. ;)

    • @shananagans5
      @shananagans5 10 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      dchawk81 Taking time value of money into account they cost less than cars today.
      $2,500-$3,500 when people were making 10-$12,000
      It was typical to spend 3 or 4 months of your income on a new car.
      Nowadays, cars are costing 6+ months of peoples income. Figure, 6 months of income for someone making 50K would be a $25,000 car. If you only spent 3 months, that's $12,500. How many $12,500 new cars are there out there?
      Three to 4 months was also considered the max you should spend & 24 month financing was the longest you could get.
      Cars cost more nowadays but they also last longer

    • @dchawk81
      @dchawk81 10 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Today's $50,000 income was $7,300 in 1968. Three months' income would be $1,800.
      $50,000 in 1968 would be $340,000 today.
      $2,500 in 1968 is $17,100 today.
      $4,500 in 1968 is $30,800 today.
      A 1968 Cadillac Sedan DeVille base price was $5,785. That's $39,500 today.
      Pretty much the same.
      I have no idea where you got the 3 months salary for your car information. Source?

    • @shananagans5
      @shananagans5 10 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      dchawk81 Umm, I was alive back then. In 1968 $5,700 was huge money for a car. Nowadays, 40K is not big money for a car. It's a nice car but far from top of the line, which a Cadillac was back then. Most cars were in the $2,000-$2,500 range.
      You are trying to compare a new Cadillac, which was like a high end Mercedes today, with an average, or slightly nicer than average car.
      Middle class did not own a Cadillac in the 60s. Nowadays, a $40,000 car is not a big deal at all.

    • @dchawk81

      +FreakinPeanuts, Tim was just acting silly.. He's done that many times, and a lot more than just a burn out.. He's been racing for many years, drag racing, but mostly like endurance racing, I use to watch him every year in Florida, with his Mustang at the "Twelve Hours of Sebring", and The Daytona 24 Hours race, and i'v talked with him many times.. He's a great guy.
