• Budget Build start to ...
Hey guys welcome to today's video. in today's video I traveled to Saskatchewan to pick up a 1983 Chevrolet Z28 Camaro. bring it to town, give it its first wash after it's been sitting for a while. bring it back to the shop and try and get this 305 in the Camaro to run and drive. will it run??? I don't know too much about this forgotten Camaro When I purchase it off the owner I mostly dealt with his grandmother at the time. she said he had it for a while and then basically lost interest in it and it's been sitting ever since. let's get another third gen Camaro back on the road. I will be doing a full paint series on this car leave in the comment section guys what color do you think we should paint this I definitely would like to hear your opinions on the paint.

Keep it red.
Walk away - because it's red.
Don’t change it. Looks good the way it is 💪🏻
A lot of people are definitely liking the original red color on this Camaro. With those silver Z28 ground effects. It's got a good look on it.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your paint suggestion it's much appreciated
She's definitely in good condition considering. Paint held up. That red does look good on her
Yeah exactly it's in really good shape I have no idea what would have pulled the door out like that though it's kind of odd. Something must have got hooked on the side mirror. Other than not in that dent in the fender and the crack on the ground effects on the passenger side it's in really excellent shape
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
The early third gens (82-84) are definitely my favorite. Mainly because that's what I had in high school but I also just like the front end, hood, and tail lights better.
Yeah I'm definitely a fan of these ones especially since the motors were all carbureted. Definitely make some a lot easier to work with having the less electronics in them. Same here I always like that front end of the earlier 3rd gens too. What year and color was your Camaro in high school?
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated🙏
I had a 82 Z28 silver with gray ground effects. Bought it in 87 thanks to a little help from my parents. I was in love 😍@@fullyloadedkustoms
Yes I graduated in 84🇨🇱Abd several of my pals had these gen 3 ,and Square bodies ,C-3s,Gen 2- Z28s,my close friend had one of the 1st sold at our local dealership,Dark Brown/tan interior/gold package trim V-6,nothing like new car smell😄
I had an 84 z28 in artslic white, with gray and silver accent stripes above the rockers. It was beautiful.
Artic white
Oh nice that's a color combination I haven't seen too many of them person is a white with gray I bet you that would look really good in person. There's tons of options that would look great on these 3rd gens
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
This car looks awesome, and especially the interior after you detailed it, those seats look great. I know how exciting it can be finding one of these cars in good shape, just like when I bought my 1991 Trans Am. I'm excited for you and I hope to see more videos of this car in the future.
Hey thanks yeah I definitely felt way better after that car was detailed. The seats are in fantastic shaping this thing the only thing I really need to replace would be about the carpet. And just reupholster or reglue the T-top headliner. Oh nice that's awesome what color is your 1991 Pontiac Trans am? I will be doing a full video series on this Camaro on the teardown and repaint of it. As soon as I'm done the 1980 Scottsdale pickup truck series. I will either be painting this one or the 1991 Pontiac Firebird
Thanks again for watching leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
@@fullyloadedkustoms That's awesome, I look forward to seeing more. My 91 Trans Am is maroon with a grey cloth interior, it is a GTA model so it has the gold badges and wheels. I would have really loved to have found a Trans Am in metallic blue like your 91 Firebird, which also is a nice car with a super nice interior. I haven't started my Trans Am in a few months so I plan on doing a cold start video of the car this week.
❤
❤🥴😎😎🥴❤❤❤❤❤@@fullyloadedkustoms
Maybe we can get a update video on all your 3 rd gens😃
Yeah I was thinking about doing that just before I posted on the truck series. That way I can kind of use that video as a poll to find out which car to paint after I'm finished up with the truck series either the 91 Firebird or that 83 Camaro. Thinking when I get back from the city I'm going to work on doing a quick video on the three of them. Before I post the first video on the truck series.
Great video and awesome pick up! 🔥🔥🔥
Hey thanks I appreciate that this was definitely a great find. And it's a really good car and really great shape too. I'm definitely looking forward to getting started on this project when I get the chance.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
You found a good investment. For this car I would say go on a road trip. Someplace that is warm. Highlight everything mechanical that you think, would need to be done on the car that can at least survive a1500 mile road trip. Go after creature conforts inside the car, like new seats. And outside, like rear suspension upgrades if need be. Maybe even buying a professionally made hitch and towing a trailer in an 83 Camaro :) Get rid of the crusty IROC wheels and go 16x8 OEM replacement wheels. Basically, just demostrate that these cars can still function and have purpose.
Yeah this is a really good car I picked up. I ended up purchasing the Camaro for $1,500 Canadian which works out to about $1100 usd. My plan for either this one or my 91 Firebird is to build and restore it and then drive it across Canada in the spring so that I'm able to help my younger brother paint his 87 Cutlass and also throw a big car show in my hometown of Pembroke Ontario at the same time. I think the rough distance would be about 2600 miles. To go from where I live in Alberta to Pembroke Ontario. It would definitely make for a great series. I would be redoing all the seat foam interior carpets new paint job exhaust rims and tires and try to keep each build in a lower bracket budget that's easily affordable for most people.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
My first car was an 84 trans-am painted brown with a small flake in it (GM OEM paint). It was a nice car. so yea go with the rootbeer. It will look awesome.
Oh nice my buddy Rich back home in Ontario. Has a metallic Brown 84 Trans Am looks really good his is the only one I've ever seen in that color before. That's definitely what got me thinking that the root beer candy would look really good on it too.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
I’m from Ontario and Canadian tire or “Newfie Speedsport” is always the go-to for parts. They have a wide selection of everything now especially on weekends. Any thing from dealerships is going to require you mortgaging your home.
I have quite a few jobber parts store here that I get most of my parts from and princess auto and TSC is another good place to get stuff from.
Ohh nice what part of Ontario? I'm originally from Pembroke Ontario. I've been out in Alberta for the past 15 years there now. I'm hoping to be able to go back home in the summertime and set up a big car show down there. Just trying to work stuff out with the city to find all the details on a car show event before I plan anything. We have a lord co auto parts and parts source out here I normally go to. Except they are 3 hours away in Edmonton 😆
14:22 on my 82 i use broken hockey sticks as hood or rear window prop rods.. using the same wooden Sherwood stick the last 4 decades. Lol. The original 1982 gas struts lasted 15 years in the back and say half that amount for the hood..😊
Your ideas for color are great too
Thanks yeah the root beer candy color I've never seen done on a third gen Camaro before I definitely think it would stand out and go really well with that Tan interior
Always wanted a red 82-84 red z28 but black would look good 👍
I would love to build a replica of the first car I had back in high school which was in 83 sports coupe that I showed at the beginning of the video. I'm definitely saving the black paint for that one. This one I think would definitely look great in a red color for sure tons of really nice shades out there for red. I'm thinking it would go really nice with the tan interior
Thanks again for watching👍🏻
I really like your 83 the 83 z would be beautiful.but one idea is I like the 91 92 ground effects I always wanted to put the on a 82 - 84 Camaro
@roycervantes1341 I want 100% will be building a replica of my high school camaro on the channel. I recently just found the fiberglass hood scoops for it online. And after I found those I really got to thinking I have to make a replica of my high school car. Same here I really like that 90 to 91 RS ground effects kit with the Scoops I think it looks really good
Love this video, thanks for posting. Keep up the good work.
Thank you I greatly appreciate it. Really glad that I stopped in to find out if this car was for sale. Definitely cannot wait to get the body work and paint started on this 3rd gen project 👍🏻
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
As a red 1983 Z28 owner, i may be biased, but i really think you should keep it the factory red with its silver ground effects like it is. Also, from the factory, this car wouldve had orange stripes just above the ground effects all the way around the car. Dont forget the stripes, they really make these red cars pop!
Lota of people are loving the orginal Red color on this Camaro it looks great with the silver Z28 ground effects kit. I juat Google that stripe I'll definitely be adding it of I go with this colors 👍🏻
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
You scored with this one. I would go back with the red color but if changing it definitely the burgundy of the same year Iroc series and maybe go with gold Iroc wheels as well.
Tuning in to see where you go with this one.👍
"zed" sounds fine to me (being from the UK lol), always loved the Camaros. Great video as always 😎👍
Perfect haha when I posted the video of the world's largest Trans Am Firebird and Camaro yard I had a lot of people saying hey it's not zed 28 it's zee28 hahha so I thought I would toss that clip in there LOL
Awesome video/ Camaro, Yeee 😃
Definitely excited to start work on this Camaro when I get the chance it's going to make for a great project
I agree
Looking good👍
Fun times bro 👍good pickup
Thanks I appreciate that this was definitely a great find. Really glad I decided to knock on the door and find out if it was for sale. It's definitely going to make for a great project can't wait to get the chance to start working on it.
@@fullyloadedkustoms I’m an OG guy I love the original red color. And it reminds me of the MASK cartoon series car thunder hawk
@jumpingeneral yeah I have been getting a lot of comments people are really liking the original red color on the Camaro👍🏻
Paint it deep red/burgundy. Possibly keep the bottom silver, but use a vibrant silver if you do that.
I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up painting this either the red or burgundy. There have been a ton of comments in the comment section to keep it the original red color
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
@@fullyloadedkustomsThe original red would look fine, but personally I'd choose a more exciting shade.
Either way paint it how you want.
Insurance payed for entire paint,couldn’t risk not matching paint,agent was a in racing & wrenching part time 😁,you did a great job
Yeah definitely looks to have been sprayed probably within the last 10 to 15 years I would have to guess nothing's really flaking off it yet. It's good possibility that's maybe what has happened. I'm definitely going to find out once I start sanding on and see how many different colors it might be.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
It always amazes me how someone has money for things like LED light strips and aftermarket stereos and subs but not for essentials like a power steering pump repair.
Yeah exactly this car was decked out with tons of LED lights big sound system and stereo and speakers. And then more than likely it was parked because of the squealing they were hearing under the hood which turned out just to be a belt that needed to be tightened up. I'm pretty sure they thought it was a bad power steering pump that's why they jammed it full of fluid.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
I got the same year model, just a crossfire injection!! I love this video!!!!
Awesome find my friend.my buddy had a 88 camaro back in high school in 92. we used to hop in it and ditch 1st period to go and get donuts.Im here in Arizona and its currently 50F and will warm up to 75 today. sending you warm thoughts brother. keep up the videos i really enjoy the time and effort you put in to them..
That's awesome ditching school to go do donuts. to me that sounds like the better option as well lol. Arizona weather is definitely sounding pretty good I bet they still have the golf courses open there too lol. Hey thanks that's greatly appreciated I definitely can't wait to get painting on one of these projects here. Almost ready to start the metal work on the 1980 Scottsdale I'm working on. After this week here I'm going to have some extra time to work on it finally lol my second job shuts down for the winter hahah.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated 👍🏻 what color was your buddy's 88 camaro?
Nice to see a new video. Looking forward to the body and paint phase of the project. A rich forest green with light gold ground effects would be sweet.
Same here I definitely cannot wait to get back to doing body work and paint on a project. Green and gold is such a good color combination. I painted a 1991 Caprice lowrider and a gold and Candy green color combination and it looked incredible when I was finished. Those color's go really well together. The greens really nice too because it stands out you definitely don't see too many of those ones around 👍🏻
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
I had a 1982. Z28 same color. It was a crossfire engine. Crashed it back in 2003. I like the one you have better. Yours doesn't have the Crossfire engine for 1. And yours has T-tops. Very nice. Red is the right color too. 😊👍
A lot of people are definitely loving the red and silver combination on this 83 Camaro. I might have to go with that color when I repainted here right away. Oh that's too bad about your Camaro hopefully you have a chance to pick up another one
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
I have an 87 Z28 and it was red like yours and I got side swiped on the passenger side door and fender and my body guy who was supposed to be my friend talked me into painting it Viper blue because he owned a couple of them and gave me a break on the paint. My interior is black cloth seats . Long story short, I wished I had left it pull me over red 😂!!! Although that maroon looked pretty nice too. Your call sir. Another third gen back on the road. Awesome 👍🏻!!!
Ahh that sucks that's what happend to my 83 Camaro I had in high school. Guy side swiped me too. Yeah that red is definitely an attention grabbing color Lora of people have left suggestions to go back to that color
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
I had a 3rd gen camaro forget what year it was but I will say this it was so fun to drive I loved driving it in my opinion it was dam well built car had 200,000 miles but ran like a dream was well taken care off too I feel In love with it had t tops whole nine yards unfortunately I had to get rid of it had the money but not the time to do what I wanted too with it I always said it was my dream car one of them and one day I'm gonna buy another one deff keep it red love to see you restore this car.
100% these cars are fun to drive they get tons of looks and lots of people have great memories in them too. I'm definitely glad I turned around and decided to stop and ask if this car was for sale. What color was the 3rd gen Camaro that you had? Hopefully, you get the chance to get yourself another one to cruise in.

Great video, keep up the awesome work. It hasn't been that cold here in Alabama 😊😊😊
Hey thanks much appreciated 👍🏻 nice I've never been down to that area before it would be great to take a road trip see what kind of cars I could come across in the Alabama area.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
I have always love this gen of cámaro.
Keep it red And grey.
I am in México and I really like what you do. Amazing
I definitely have always liked these gens of Camaros as well. My first car in high school was a 1983 Camaro sports coupe. Thanks I really appreciate that. Now that I got it running I can wait to strip it down and get it ready for paint.
gracias de nuevo por mirar y dejar tus comentarios. se agradece mucho 🙏🏻
Excellent video as always, can't wait to see this f-body being restored to former glory.
Don't worry about the zed thing, here in EU we initially learn British English so it's also "zed" for me 😄 - and in my native language German it's "zett", which is close to "zed" as well :). It's winter time here as well now, close to 0°C, it's gonna snow soon...I used to like winter, but the older you get the less you like it 😄. I never liked hot weather either, so I enjoy spring and fall the most when it's around 15-20 °C.
Thanks I really appreciate that. Lol when I posted the video of the world's largest Trans Am Camaro and Firebird collection at David T's I had a lot of people in the comments saying hey it's not a Zed 28 camaro it's a Zee 28 haha so I thought I would throw that clip in there lol. Yeah I know exactly what you mean used to like winter as a kid now that I'm in my 30s I really don't have much use for it haha. I would definitely prefer a longer car show season and golf season now haha. Yeah we're going to get hit with snow and cold weather here right away too. And then it's going to probably last until about May LOL had to stock up on my winter projects with the 3rd gens I picked up lol
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
Cool ride
Thanks, I'm definitely glad I took the time out to stop and find out if this Camaro was for sale. Can't wait to.gwt started on the paint process
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
Love it 😍= KEEP IT RED
Yeah I'm definitely liking the red color on these looking really good. I've looked at a few shades of red for it. Definitely going to keep the tan interior because it's an excellent shape.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
Great car just subscribed love the show 👍👍
Hey, thanks for subscribing, and welcome to the channel. Can't wait to get started on the body work and paint series for this Camaro
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
I turned 16 in 1988 and my first car was a 1985 IROC-Z with the LB9 TPI 305. I haven’t driven a third gen since I sold that car around 1993. I have so many fond memories associated with that car. Im completely out of garage space ( I’m even storing one car at my father’s house) and I am in no way wanting to sell any of my cars…. But I am jonesing for a 3rd gen Camaro. It may be time to buy a lift and start stacking cars 🤔
Thanks for the video and the trip down memory lane. Peace, love, mullets and hair metal. 🤟
That's awesome can't beat having an Iroc Z as a first car that's awesome!! What color was it? Getting a lift is a good idea provides room for more cars. I agree the decision let's you get a 3rd Gen camaro I recommend it lol
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
@@fullyloadedkustoms…it was silver with red decals. The car was totaled soon after I sold it. It was a first year IROC, in the rarest color, with the top performing engine option and a rare non T-top car from year with lowest IROC production. Shame it got recycled into soup cans.
@abolishwelfare oh really that's to bad the new owner totaled it that sucks, yeah that's definitely ashamed that was end of it especially with it being the first year of the Irocs as well
Corona CA and it's hit and miss on the Heat currently. We are anywhere from 70 to 80.
Oh nice I haven't been down to California before I really got to go take a road trip down there sometime. See what kind of cars I can find along the way.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
Wow. You got some cool free led lighting for the car.
I feel like I got a great deal on the LEDs Top Notch quality they barely cracked apart when I pulled them out of the car lol
Pretty good purchase you have there ! Glad you got that f body running ✌. I always wanted a silver and black 85 Iroc z28 my uncle used to have.. Those cars good acoustic for a sound system. By the way that vacuum brush hack you have worked like a charm when I was cleaning out my GMT400 suv the other day ✌
Thanks same here it was definitely a great find. Really glad I turned around and left a note on the door to find out if it was for sale. Oh yeah for Acoustics for sound systems they sound great. My 83 Camaro had the box that Six Flag with the rear hatch and when you get the base bouncing off the glass it sounds really good. Awesome the brush hack for the vacuum works so much better than the Plastics
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated. Hopefully you get a chance to pick up a silver and black 85 IROC camaro 👍🏻
Paint that bad arsh Z/28 a beautiful copper/tangerine metalic! The bottom trim thats silver, do that in black....
😎👍
That would be a nice color combination for the camaro. I recently seen that on a 3rd Gen FireBird that was posted on Facebook Marketplace looks good together 👍🏻
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated 🙏
I had a 83 z28, something about those earlier years on these 3rd gens the seats seem to hold up very well over time, super comfortable. Nice job man!
Thanks, yeah, this one was in really good shape. I think the only thing I would do is replace the lower seat foam. That's all the seats need. Really comfortable seats in this car though
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated. What color was your 1983 Z28?
Love your vid's....Just waiting & waiting to see ya fix some of these cars you get...Ya find some great one's...Hope to see some fixed & go out....
Hey thanks it's greatly appreciated. Right now I've currently got the 1980 Scottsdale in the garage that I recently did a Revival video on. I've got it pretty much torn down and ready to get the box off and start the metal work on it. Definitely looking forward to putting the Retro paint job back on the truck. And from there I will be either getting to this 83 Camaro or the 91 Firebird👍🏻
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
Spain here.... Getting chilly too these days.
Oh nice that's awesome to know that my videos are being watched down in Spain.
gracias de nuevo por mirar
Arizona here! It’s 65-70 degrees every day right now. But, we pay for it in the summertime. My first car was a red 85 Camaro, so great to see this one get a new life again!
Oh nice that sounds like great weather compared to out here lol. But I've seen some of the temperatures there in the summertime it definitely gets hot. Have to plan to take a trip down to Arizona sometime for a cruise I've never been to that area before it would make for a great road trip. Oh nice that's awesome my first car wasn't 83 Camaro lock to my friends in high school either had a 3rd gen Firebird or a 3rd gen Camaro. Awesome cars to have. I can't wait to tear into this one and get it torn down and ready for paint
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
Keep the existing colour combination. It will be more attractive. Especially if you decide to sell it. 👍🏿
Yeah I.want to say like 65% - 75% of the comments on the page have been in favor of the orginal red and silver paint combination
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
@@fullyloadedkustoms 3rd gen'rs gotta stick together 👊🏿😆
@stephencampbell8498 oh exactly haha I've got a few more 3rd gens I've Come across over winter, hopefully bring that back once all the snow melts lol
Nice color 👍
Yeah everyone is definitely loving that orginal Red and Silver combination, it'd definitely the most popular comments so far
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
Awesome car! I just got my 82 T/A Up and running, they’re very fun cars to work on. My recommendation is to keep it original.
There's definitely been lots of comments on here about keeping the Camaro the original color. It definitely looks good with the silver ground effects kit. Oh that's awesome. What color is your 82 trans am? Awesome here its back up and running
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
Leave it red, looks old school and cool. When I was 15 I got an 87 firebird and its maroon and gold. I originally hated the color but I grew to love it and I got the seats redone to be their original red. This car is badass and I love it
Yeah lots of peope are loving this old school Red paint job on the Camaro. It definitely works well with the silver Z28 ground effects kit. Nice that maroon Firebird I bet looks great

Seeing this car made me very sad. I was a Finance Manager at a car dealership in California during the "Cash 4 Clunkers" Program. I was off for a couple of days, and when I got back in, I saw that we had already salted the motor of a 1984 Z-28. It had 4,000 miles on the odometer. I almost cried. The program gave that owner $4500 for the Z28. It was only worth about $4000 at the time (and it was Dk Brown on Tan). I did manage to buy out a $90,000 1993 Land Rover Defender 110 for $4500! It also made me sad that I saw several other Defenders (90s and 110s) that had been destroyed. People just didn't know what they were.
I had 2 of these, the engine sound is so memory envokeing, i had blazer tires on the back for winter. Love it red
Oh nice that's awesome what color were your Camaros that you had? A lot of people are definitely liking the original red color to it 👍🏻
Thanks again for watching and leaving your paint color suggestion it's much appreciated
My 1st was a 82 z28 350/T350 trans, it was blue with grey skirts, it rotted away😞, my second was a 88 sport coupe with a 305/700r4,all rattle can black indy 500 hood, i had 387,000 miles on it when the engine blew😞, these cars schooled me on how to improvise, best sitting position for bad back ppl too its like a beach chair.
Man that was a good find, I want me one !
This was definitely a great find I was able to pick this up for $1500 Canadian too. I've got my eyes on another 84 Z28 to pick up in the spring time as well
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated 🙏🏻
Candy apple red would look awesome. Awesome find makes me jealous lol.
Hey thanks I appreciate that. Yeah this is definitely a really great find I'm happy I turned the truck around and decided to knock on the door to see if they were selling it. The candy apple red definitely will have a great look to it. Especially the sunlight it just brings out all the body lines in the car in the sun flop on the paint.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
Charcoal grey...btw,GREAT FIND, GREAT JOB ! The only thing I would do is, take the rear spoiler off the Camaro and put on a wing like the one on the Trans am...OR same yr as the camaro.
Hey thanks I appreciate that, it was definitely a great find to come across this Camaro. Glad I stopped and knocked on the door to find out if it was for sale. Oh that's a cool idea I don't think I've seen that done before
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
That sure looks VERY familiar, I had a 1983 Z28 a couple years ago, canadian car as well so no computer control, no AC, TH200C, red on silver, but it had no option and base interior in charcoal. It had the funny clock in the center console you got if you didn't order a radio. It was so basic it didn't have rear speakers or even the openings for them in the rear panel, and no antenna hole in the fender either. Sweet car, not fast but a simple lovely cruiser.
Oh nice that's right on so you pretty much had the identical looking car that's cool. Yeah exactly it would make for a great Cruiser. I would really like to redo this Camaro or the 91 Firebird over the winter time and take one of those two. And drive it across Canada which is roughly 2600 miles to my hometown in Pembroke Ontario and help my younger brother paint his 87 Cutlass in the spring. Would definitely make for a great road trip and would also help my younger brother good also get my family in some more TH-cam videos would make for a great time
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
I love the third gen’s. Paint it the Root Beer color!
I'm definitely liking the root beer candy color it's different and it would really stand out on the car. It's such a nice looking color in the sunlight and it really brings out all the body lines on the vehicle
Thanks again for watching and leaving your paint suggestion it's much appreciated👍🏻
Looks great. Keep the red paint and add back in those Z28 decal stripes above the silver ground effects!
a lot of people are commenting to leave at the original Factory red color it definitely looks good on it with the silver ground effects kit
Thanks again for watching and leaving your paint suggestions it's much appreciated
I hope you keep it, Red. I always hated the 2 tones. I'd paint the trim red, too!
Lots of People are loving the orginal Red color. I'm the same way I think it would be better suited to be all red. Would definitely give it a good look
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
3rd gens have a soft spot in my heart this one will be fun to watch
Same here I definitely like my 3rd gens my 83 Camaro was pretty much the first car to get me into classic cars and Custom paintwork. Really looking forward to being able to do this one and the firebird over the winter should be great.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
@@fullyloadedkustoms no thanks needed my friend you have a solid channel I enjoy the content very much
I can’t believe you scored such a great car right off the bat! Everything worked and you really didn’t have to do much to get it driving again. Good for you! My first choice would be the original color, if not, then the color of the Iroc that you showed us. I hope you show us the actual painting part, that would be cool.
Exactly I was really surprised with this car. I picked it up for $1,500 Canadian which is roughly $1100 usd. It didn't really take much to get it driving.
Yeah I've definitely got a lot of comments that people like the original red color on the car. It definitely stands out for sure. I will be doing an entire paint series on this Camaro from start to finish. I'll probably break the videos down into 4 parts
1) vehcile tear down
2) body work primer
3) paint /clear coat wet sand polish
4)reassemble/ final product
Is kinda what I'm thinking definitely can't wait to get the paint fun in my hand to paint it that's for sure 👍🏻
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
That car is in dam good shape!!! That is a friggin score!!! It even has the rear wiper option!
I always loved the look of the 82 Z28 to 86 Iroc Z. The low profile with the wide stance looks awesome.
Those carbs worked really good when serviced properly. The feeling from four barrels opening up and doing a hard pull with that sound of the air rushing into the carb is a great feeling!!!
The only thing I hated was that dam gauges! Chevy always had crappy gauges whereas Pontiac always had excellent gauge package.
I had an 82 Trans Am that had every feature in it including factory air with the TTops which was a special order.
You must have got that for a steal of a deal since the guy lost interest. lol!
Very nice 🎉..🇨🇦
Hey thanks I greatly appreciate that. this was definitely a great find I look forward to getting the chance to start working on this Z28 project.
Thanks again for watching are you also from canada? If so what part?
Nice looking car. Keep it red,and just spruce it up abit. Here in Florida, it is hot and muggy. That cool weather sounds really nice. More updates whenever you can
Thanks definitely lucked out with this one. Really glad I went and knocked on that where to find out if it was for sale. Hot sounds good muggy not as much lol. But I definitely would take hot and muggy and still be able to drive classic cars over parking them 6 months at a time lol.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
I hope it's for sale for a good price when you are done with it it's beautiful
what I was thinking about doing with it. Was running it through a raffle that way people would have the chance to win it. I was thinking would be a cool idea.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
Raffle is a good idea I'm ready when you are ready please let me know if you do a raffle I will be glad to try to win it my name is Kevin thanks
@kevinturner1104 Yeah, that's what I was thinking of. Raffle is a pretty good idea, and it gives people a pretty fair chance to win the car. And not have to spend a ton of money for the opportunity to win it.
American: Zee
Canadian: Zed
Overall: All Love For The Love Of Automobiles.
Exactly 💯 I'm glad I was able to get it up and running again, definitely looking forward to getting this Camaro stripped down and ready for paint

First off, I love your F body videos. I myself love the F bodies, as I bought a '97 Firebird Convertible last Feb. EXCELLENT shape, loved the driving season this yr but sadly she is in my storage unit now till April. It's cold now in IA, USA and we had 2" of snow here Saturday. Oh well.....keep it up, best wishes!!!
Hey thanks greatly appreciated. That is awesome what color is your 97 Pontiac firebird? Oh that sucks to hear that it is getting snow over there in Iowa. I'm sure the snow and really cold weather is going to be on its way here to Alberta right away too haha. It always is lol. I'm very glad I stocked up on 3rd gen projects for the winter here lol.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated 🙏
It's RED, black convertible top, gray cloth interior.
Hey my friend just finished watching your video. Man you did a great job the car looks fantastic. I think the burgundy would look nice when you paint it.. Keep up the good work.
Hey thanks really appreciate that. Yeah seeing a burgundy color online with a tan interior and it looked so good together. Really got me thinking that it would look excellent on this Camaro👌🏻
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
@@fullyloadedkustoms Your welcome anytime btw I'm Steve from L.A.and I love cars old and new I work for a rent a car company. One of the nicest things about my job I can rent a car free when ever I want.
I like the root beer colour idea. That would match perfectly with the interior. Love the content you put out for our enjoyment!
Hey thanks I really appreciate that. Definitely going to have some more videos out here over the winter. I've got one week left on the farm and my second job shuts down here for the winter. Should give me more chances get some more TH-cam videos out. That's what I'm thinking is the root beer color candy would definitely stand out and give it a unique look. Another viewer gave me the part number of another root beer candy that's a bit lighter from Tamko. And that lighter root beer color candy would look really good too.

@@peterdeweerd6047 awesome thanks for subscribing and welcome to the channel
Hey this ones in much better shape than the last one. Or two or three okay it's in the best shape IMHO. LOL. Great find for s Saskatchewan car!
Yeah this Camaro is in fantastic shape. A lot of these that have been able to find are in pretty good shape with very minimal rust. Good thing for the dry climate we got out in this area in Alberta and Saskatchewan. Had this been in Ontario car she might have rusted in half already with all the salt down there haha. But this one's going to make for a solid project can't wait to tear into it.
I always loved those in the electric blue.. and the tan interior would look great with the blue.
100% the Factory blue colors that I've seen on these Camaros look fantastic, and they go really nicely with the body style.
Thanks again for watching leaving your paint suggestion much appreciated👍🏻
black and gold:) like Smokey and the Bandit 🤠
I've seen a couple 3rd gen Camaros that are painted in a black and gold scheme and have the gold style Iroc rims on them they look pretty Sharp and would also match that tan interior really well too
Thanks again for watching and leaving your paint suggestion it's much appreciated👍🏻
Rootbeer brown would match that interior pretty well 👍
Yeah I definitely like those colors that stand out and that are different the root beer candy and on this I think would be great. Someone sent me a tamco kandy brown suggestion that looks really good as well it's a little bit lighter than the root beer color but would look awesome with that Tan interior
Thanks again for watching and leaving your paint suggestion is greatly appreciated👍🏻
Got to go with red! Looking good!
Lots of people have definitely been liking the red color. It definitely goes really nice with the silver Z28 ground effects kit
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
Hey mate, got recommended your channel, nice work! I lived in Regina for a year or so which was cool. back in my native New Zealand now, you don't find cars like this!! if i'm honest , the root beer would be mint!
Oh nice yeah Regina is roughly about 7 hours from where I'm located. Nice my buddies been to New Zealand was showing me pictures from there that's beautiful country there. Same I was thinking that Rootbeer color would be sooo unique on the Camaro
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
Would love to see the brown with gold accents. Red has been done to death but just seeing it redone will be awesome. Really enjoying your content.
Yeah same here I don't think I have ever seen one done in a root beer candy before. My Buddy Rich back home has a 1984 Trans Am done in an orginal brown metallic that looks really good. And that root beer candy and gold accents would look extremely well together👍🏻
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
Red lightning red is the number one color of that Camero. Keep it just like it is but retouch it little bit. To make it look good.
A lot of people are definitely liking the orginal red color that's on the Camaro. It definitely looks good with the silverZ28 ground effects kit. I might go back to this but I would definitely wet sand and polish the car afterwards to give it that show room finish
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
@@fullyloadedkustoms Anytime👍
I had an 84 Z28 identical to that one … loved that car …
Nice that's awesome. I'm really liking the color combination on this car especially with that tan Interior. I can't wait to get the Chance to start working on this project
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
I would repaint it the same color but I would jerk that 305 out and put a small block 400 in it. It would bolt right up with minimal change.
Yeah I'm pretty sure I'll be going back with the Red and the silver on this Camaro and adding the Z28 graphics stripes too. Small block 400 would make for a nice touch in this car 👍🏻
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
From the US, just say Zed lol always make these videos better seeing canadans or austrailians, Japanese or whatever the person may be, enjoy the cars we have standard since its usually the other way around lol
Haha perfect that's what I've always called it lol only because the letter by its self is Zed. But I have no idea why in Canada its pronounced Zed and its Zee in the US. Like how ridiculous would Zedbra sound lmao.

I am so glad I live in Florida, feel so bad for you. I cannot function in extreme cold or heat but can handle the heat a lot better than the cold, anything below 50 degrees farenheit is to cold for me. Great video.
Hey thanks I appreciate that. Florida would be fantastic to be in can definitely get used to all the humidity in the heat out there. Plus being able to golf more than 3 months out of the year LOL. Yeah it's about to dip into some cold weather right here right away going to be locked up in my shop here until May LOL. I've never been to Florida before. I'm going to have to take a road trip down there see what kind of cars I can find along my way
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
@@fullyloadedkustoms Florida is a beautiful place to live, if you want land north Florida is affordable. I don’t know how much the real estate prices are in Canada but many people sell their properties up north and buy houses cash down here because of the price difference. I wish you well in your endeavors .
14:52 ha!!! I used to use Paul Coffey sticks back when played!! 😂😂😂
I played defense I always found where the best sticks haha always ended up being those paul Coffey ones lol
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
@@fullyloadedkustoms can’t beat those sticks man. Best out there…plus that illegal blade curve was my favorite!! 😂😂😂
Right back to stock 👍
I'm pretty sure if I throw this in a poll video this Camaro will be going back to that stock Red color with the z28 Graphics and the silver Z28 ground effects kit
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
Third gens are my favourite!!!
Same here I've got 3 more lined up to pick up on the spring 1984 Z28 Camaro, 1984 Trans Am and a 86 Trans am too $1000 for all 3 so can't go wrong with that deal
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated 🙏🏻
Great find. I am from California. I have two camaros, one iroc and a 95 Z28 paint it what color you like. As for me, I would paint it black with the lower ground effects in gold .keep up the great work 👍
Oh nice California would be the place to be. Haven't been down to that area definitely have to take a road trip once I have one of these cars back on the road would definitely for a great time. That's awesome the black and the gold combination would look really good together👍🏻 what color are the two Camaros that you have now?
Thanks again for watching leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
Great video. My wife (girlfriend at the time) bought a brand new 1983 Camaro Z28, black with grey black interior. We live in the gta, just north of Toronto, Ontario. She didn’t drive it in the winter so it was mint and Was a good car. I sold it for her a few years later but we enjoyed it while she had it.
On nice that's awesome. That would have been a sweet car. Your located around that Vaughon area? I'm originally from Pembroke Ontario just outside of Ottawa. Lived there for the longest time. Can't believe there is more snow in that Toronto then there is here in Alberta.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated
A nice medium dark metallic copper colour would look great on that body style and goes well with the interior.
I've had a few comments now suggesting copper color. I recent came seen that on a 3rd gen Trans Am looks really good on these cars.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated 🙏
Kool beans I hope my T/A starts that easy, however i need to chase down the wires the rats chewed up. I just wished it was a 5 speed . If mind wasn't an Anniversary Edition I would paint it black and buy those black 1982-92 T/A wheels.
Yeah this one definitely wasn't too bad to get it up and running again, hopefully yout Trans Am can get up and running relatively easy. Those anniversary editions are nice Cars,
Arkansas. Send that snow this way!
Perfect no problem lol I'm sure the snow is on the way here anytime now, haha it definitely gets crazy at times I think last year it was pretty much up to my waist and I'm about 6 ft tall lol.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
@@fullyloadedkustoms nice! I would love to see that much snow here
Z-28 model came with a 305 engine for T-top models .. 350 engine for Coupes with out T-tops because of the rear end tourque these cars have .. All F-body vehicles shared the same engine/trans displacement for 82-92 models .. body style (ground effects) changed thru-out the 3rd gen cars until 92
Great find 👍 ... I have owned & flipped 17 F-body Camaro/Firebirds thru-out the 80's & 90's production years.
Yeah this was definitely a great find I ended up picking up this Camaro for $1500 Canadian which works out to be about $1,100 usd. Yeah that's definitely something to think about if I upgrade the motor definitely don't want the car twisting up lol. I was actually speaking with a guy in Edmonton recently and that's exactly what happened to his t top car when he upgraded to a 383 stroker.
Oh nice that is awesome out of the 17 Camaro and Firebirds you had which one was your favorite?
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
I had 2 out of the 17 I bought and flipped
1991 Chevy Camaro Z-28 - 305 Tuned Port motor with T-tops/Auto trans .. Maui Blue in color .. I put 4th gen leather seats in it .. kept it all stock
1992 Pontiac Trans am GTA - 350 Tuned Port engine/Auto trans - Coupe model - Dark Green in color with Tan leather interior
My 1st Pontiac Trans am was a 1976 that was Silver with Black leather interior/Auto trans with a 400 ci engine ... I got it in 1981after coming back from Germany to Ft Hood .. I traded a Pioneer Silver faced Stereo system with Bose 901 speakers to a Car Dealership (owner) for it
Best 4th Gen I found was a 1996 WS6 Pontiac Trans am Ram Air in Michigan I bought for $800 .. it needed a new exhaust system & radiator .. I brought it back to Illinois after repairs were done with 96.000 original miles and listed it on Craigslist/Autotrader at 9am and sold it for $7500 by 1pm that same day ... Keep the faith going with the 3rd gen Camaro/Firebirds you buy.
@@fullyloadedkustomsshit I paid 3500 for one about a month ago 😢
Looks like the 1 on Simon & Simon's fantastic car and a great show
Thanks, I've gotten tons of comments to keep the car the orginal red with the silver z28 ground effects kit. It's going to make for a sweet ride to redo
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated. Also hope you had a great Christmas
One on Simon and Simon. Was. 82. With no t tops and roof cut out
Lime Green and Black!
I recently seen a third gen Camaro painted lime green and black on one of the Camaro Facebook groups I follow and it looked really good👍🏻 it was a green lime metallic color
Thanks again for watching and leaving your paint suggestion it's much appreciated👍🏻
My first Camaro was an 86 z28 back in 2003 i bought it for less than 1000 usd
Nice that's a really good find for that price. What color was your 86 camaro?
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
Firebird or the Camaro would be great videos
Just heading down there to Edmonton today to get a 700R4 transmission for that 91 Firebird
Thanks again for leaving those comments and watching it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
I think the red on silver looks great.
I've definitely been getting lots of comments. There's a lot of people out there that like the original red with the silver ground effects kit on it👍🏻 just might have to paint this car back to that original red
Thanks again for watching and leaving your paint suggestion it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
I think you said in your clip that it was October up there and I'm getting the video kind late adds to the whole Halloween vibe as your crank and the light's flickering. And there's dust flying up and everything else. Pretty cool. Erecting it from the dead..
Yesh I think it was around the 26th of October when I finished filming up this video for the channel. Haha it really does add to that Halloween theme bringing it back from the dead

Ohh she got the boom booms in her! I have my Maui blue firebird formula resting for the winter myself.
Yeah this one was all decked out with the sound system amp and subwoofer. Would be nice if it has the Box that sits flush with the back hatch. Oh nice that's awesome Maui blue is a fantastic looking color. The 88 Firebird I recently picked up under the black rattle can spray paint is Maui blue such a nice looking color👌🏻 how long have you had that Firebird for?
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments greatly appreciate it🙏
Goodyear, AZ here. Yes. It's warmer here for us right now than for you. BUT... do not envy us. Our summers are R I D I C U L O U S ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

I can’t read through all the comments but I’ll say this: You and I are around the same age and if you had one In High School your were set! I sadly couldn’t afford one then. But my friends did and to see that woofer in that spot is a sin! Everyone knows that you could do a pair of tens or 12s in the back in the hole and put a board to cover it so that it takes up zero trunk space. Put your amps in the hole. In just outside the NYC area those cars were king only one or two away from the GTA Trans Am red. That color was UNMISTAKABLE. So I’d keep it it’s original color, retint those windows (because that’s so easy) and also do the hatch. Black it out. Good luck!
I was in high school around 99. I picked up my 83 camaro in grade 9 for like $800 and think it got redone for around. $4500 I was able to drive it to my last year of grade 12. Haha exactly it needs to be in that camaro box where it sits flat. Get some real good base out of those cars. Yeah it definitely needs black out tint would go really well with a fresh red paint job

Nice memories. My little brother had an '85 iroc-z, while I preferred my '86 Firebird. When my hood and hatch lifts failed I just replaced them with new ones. So much easier than always looking around for a prop. Did you ever get past 2nd gear on your test drive? LOL.
Nice what color was your 86 Firebird that you had? Yeah that's definitely the easiest thing to do. I can't believe I was actually to actually find the hood lift supports for this car here. Usually I have to drive 3 hours to Edmonton to find parts for anything I need lol. Yes I was able to that camaro shifts great.
Thanks again for watching and leaving your comments it's greatly appreciated👍🏻
You found a gem!
Yeah I definitely got a good score on this one. I ended up picking up this Camaro for $1,500 canadian which works out to be about $1100 us. Can't wait to start the tear down process on this and get it ready for paint
