Man $4600?!?!? Even with a rod knock thats a steal for a C5 with a supercharged LS2! Let alone for only a cheap fix. The reason you cant get ahold of the seller is because he is too busy punching the air right now!
I just cannot get over the level of production and the fact that Shawn only has 3.3k subscribers - that's insane - I don't own a Corvette (yet) but learning so much about the platform - interesting, and entertaining....
Shawn, please stick with the videos, I know its a lot of work, but we who are here will be loyal for sure. Love this hobby and through your personality makes this great! All your detail info is greatly appreciated. Be safe!
Shawn, you could totally kill it on this platform! Your personality, skills, enthusiasm, knowledge, etc. Who knew? Any idea how many Corvette fans there are out there, produce some more content and you'll have 1M subs in a NY second.
You really, really caught my attention explaining the driveshaft in this C5 Corvette and how you simplified it so nicely to the average layman. I immediately subscribed to your channel for your impeccable work. Thank you!
So far these 2 episodes are really great fun Shawn. I am starting to learn more and more about the Corvette so this is really enlightening. You were pretty stoked to find that bad drive line yolk 😀
I've been watching TH-cam automotive channels for a looong time. This is only the second time I've ever had something pop up on my feed for it's first time and I've watched from beginning to end without constantly fast forwarding. Only fast-forward once or twice in the very very beginning. I'm highly impressed with your production, enthusiastic delivery, audio choices, knowledge providing without being way over technical and overall quality of the video. This is fantastic. I hope your channel grows like "Jack's beanstalk". This was a phenomenal video
Dude, I'm not really a car guy but watched the whole video without skipping a second. It was perfectly made. Excitement, humor, informative, the cuts, the music...everything was on point. Big thumbs up.
This show is better than anything on cable in my opinion! I can't wait to see where this show goes! Great content, good humor, educational too what more could we want! Give us more Shawn
THIS is the best automotive channel i've found since VGG. I've never understood a transaxle before. Thank you for actually taking time to show us the corvette drive system like that. Very well produced.
Shawn, I am impressed by your level of video production, entertainment, knowledge and your enthusiasm that was presented in this video. Great job and keep up the fantastic work.
Love the fact that you made this feel like a professional show, your production and time you spent editing and setting up two drive trains is amazing! thank you! You deserve wellll over 4k subs
This is the first time watching the channel. I love the quirky passion he has, as well as the vast amount of knowledge he brings. Can’t wait for the next video!
Great work! Your ability to show the torque converter and components under the body is fantastic. I have not seen another show as detailed and educational as this one. Your channel will do great. Your hard work is appreciated.
Cable ruins content like this. Creating content on TH-cam you are free to be yourself and do what you want to do, don't have producers and people telling you what to do... When you introduce producers and create content for cable, Netflix and the like it comes off as fake and phony... Cable is dead, I cut that cord decades ago...
That non running Vette was a gamble that sure paid off. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Liked and Shared! I look forward to checking out your fabrication and finishing of that Beast. Cheers! ⚡🍀🇺🇲💪
You have, probably the best video production on TH-cam! Loved the torque tube dissolve to the Vette! (I own a video production co.) I grew up in Southern MN. My dad owned one of the only body shops in the area that fixed Corvettes. Love your channel!
Shawn, you have me hooked! You are speaking my language and your production skills make me feel like I am watching a TV show. Literally binging through all your content right now! Driveshaft walkthrough was epic! Always enjoyed your 'performance' as the savvy wheeler dealer on Gotham garage, but watching you get hands on, shows a whole new level of skill. Nice work my friend!
Shawn, your videos are terrific. I have had Corvettes from the 60s up till today. I always love learning something new as I did on your C5 video. Keep up the great work, and can’t wait for more of your follow up videos!
2 videos in this guy blows away most car TV shows.. The amount of effort and time it had to take to set up a bare C5 drivetrain had to be insane. Not to mention editing melting the body onto it.. Guy clearly has a insane work ethic and attention to detail. His obvious love for vettes alone is worthy enough for a sub, but his work ethic and attention to detail takes it way over the top.. This channel is going to be a wealth of knowledge for any Vette owner that likes to wrench on their own ride, as well as anyone looking to own a Vette and know what they are looking for ... Just a hunch, but I suspect nothing but top shelf craftsmanship schooling on Vette wrenching on this channel.. And with all that said. Congrats on the huge win on a big pony Vette on the cheap..
Honestly it's super impressive how much effort you put into your videos. Good job! Now I really want a C5 'vette for my first car. You've sparked my addiction with vettes now LOL. Drive safe!
This video is so well done I'm honestly blown away. You explained it so well that a beginner like me could follow along. It was entertaining the whole way through and I learned a lot! PS : Thanks for all the effort you put into the demonstrations, like setting up the axels and torque tube, it made it so clear to understand where all the parts connected to each other, and the relationship they have. Thanks again for such an awesome video, I can't wait to watch more. Bravo Shawn Pilot!
You were great in Gotham Garage. So nice to see you back on TV. Great content, well edited. Well done, man! Thanks for the great entertainment. Looking forward to more!
OMG i used to watch a TV show just for you, happy to find your channel here, will watch every video i can 😄 Good luck with this proyect and ty for so many fun moments ✌️
Well done my friend! Thoroughly enjoyed this sleuthing video! Glad you made out with this acquisition. Can’t wait to see what you end up creating with this project! Keep ‘em coming! 👏👍🏼🙏😎
I love the fact that he is doing an amazing job and doing something himself ( at least it seems ) that takes anyone else a full crew . Great job Shawn ,loving your stuff man . And I don't even like Corvettes 😂
No cursing, no lame runaround dialogue for a more lengthy video, no fronting or false knowledge just a man in his garage doing what he loves and making great content. I love it , never stop I just found your page and I subbed for more content. Your amazing bro 👍much love from California
@@ghettochicken8420 interesting take. Usually younger people curse heavy. Regardless, because I prefer media that isn't cursing, that makes me young? Hmm interesting 🤔
Just discovered your channel with your amazing $3500 1971 purchase! This video here was #MINDBLOWING! I instantly subscribed Shawn! I look forward to future videos and am amazed you only have 1.75k subs! I'll definitely share with my friends and I have a few there in your area! *EDIT* I was wondering what the hell as I thought when I 1st saw your '71 video, you had 1.57k subs and then when I was done with this video, you were already up to 1.75k ....and then I look at your homepage and these are your only two videos and again, you jumped from 1.75k to 1.79k! (*2nd edit...1.8k now!*) Wow! You are definitely going to need to provide some more content! Your video and editing skills are already 1st rate! I see you with a million subs faster than a 700hp supercharged LS2!!!
Shawn, amazing find! I can’t believe you scored that car for that price. And I thought you lucked out on the’72! Awesome presentation, great editing, no wasted viewing minutes. If you had a hot chic for a helper? Another level. My son and I rented a C6 manual when we went to Daytona Raceway for the Rolex. First time driving a Vette for the both of us, he had an STI , I have an ATS-V. Big step up from both cars. We had an absolute blast in it! Keep the videos coming!
Wow Shawn is going places! One of the fastest growing channels and it deserves it! What a production and entertainment. Looking forward to more videos.
Shawn pilot. Would you be interested in hiring me ? I'm a professional life long auto builder that also has a passion for corvettes and building hot rods. Thanks either way.
Great vudeo! Very informative on the torque tube removal and repair of the coupler. Nice decoding of the block...you got yourself a nice hot rod there!
Inspired, awesome Vette enthusiasm with flawless video production skills. Superstar, entertaining, informative, inspiring terrific keep it going!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I have a 02 red one just like yours. The painted panel between the back glass and the removable top, I had it wrapped in gloss black vinyl. Looks great.
I thought I was watching Dickey Roberts for a minute. Awesome video, shop and yard. I own two Corvettes in Metro Atlanta. I’m subscribing and I’ll tell my Corvette club members about your channel.
Dude, you’re the new channel I’ve been looking for.. you’re genuinely funny and talented! I always want to learn from the videos I watch and on my 2nd video with you I learn all about transaxles.. you’re gold my friend, keep up the great work!
Shawn that was one of the best mechanical explanations I have ever seen. I know you went to a lot of effort but thank you! Brilliant visual demonstration.
The thrills, the chills, the romance, the drama, the shredded rubber and chunks of aluminum debris-it’s all here, dude. I’ve watched two of your Vette videos and they are totally enjoyable and informative.
At first i thought you cgi the whole no car on the drivetrain part, dude, thisnis epic learning right here. Thanks for teaching. Im a mustang fan, but dude, you're production and how you do what you do is next level. Subbed.
That was a great video. I felt like I was watching a tv show from back when tv mattered. The thing where you transitioned the car to the mechanical components was super cool and that transition back where you slid under the car was done really well too. I have done some minor video editing and I can imagine that took a long time and a lot of set up to get it to look so good. Anyway looking forward to more videos on your channel. Looks like it's been a while at this point. Hope the editing and production wasn't so much it drove you away. What you've done is really impressive!
Dammit - I thought you were just a goofy guy on the Netflix show. The quality of these three videos so far is out of this world. Great production quality, you're so easy to listen to and knowledgeable about these Vettes - I LOVE this channel! Subscribed, bell notifications are on - keep up the amazing work!
Shawn, I know it sounds unlikely that you would have missed it but I just wanted to mention one thing. One very popular modification on forced induction C5 and C6 Corvettes to prevent knock was to spray water methanol into the intake, this was normally done by adding a bong under the existing windshield washer fluid tank and having a pump under the bumper and a hose into the intake tube on the bottom. It's possible to gloss over something like that because of where it is in relation to the work you were doing. If the windshield washer tank is low and it's not spraying water methanol then that would explain the knocking. It just seems weird to me that someone who put that much effort into building the vet would not have it tuned correctly. Many people just used normal -20 windshield washer fluid because it is 70% water and 30% methanol and that way they can continue to use their washers as normal but some went out in bought special juice which was a 50-50 mix. The windshield washer fluid is almost as good. You end up with about 113 octane equivalency with -20° windshield, washer fluid and 116 octane equivalency with 50-50 mix.
First of all, thank you very much for your video. I have been in the world of cars for many years. We really like how you explain things and give us many things that are key to this business. We wish you much success and we are waiting for your new videos. Gracias 🇪🇸
I am somewhat of a car enthusiast I am a totally impressed in the descriptions and delivery of real autos presentation by Shawn Pilot! His skill as a mechanic is great! I'm glad Shawn has his own show! Discovery of the model corvette
Ok Joe Dirt, you got yourself a new subscriber. That naked transition to the running gear with the explanation of the transaxle and torque tube was epic.
Shawn! I first saw you on Gotham Garage and I really enjoyed your positive attitude and charisma. I love this channel and appreciate how you deliver your kind personality amidst the cars. Its fun informative and I can watch it with my kids! Thank you Shaun! Coolest guy on TV!!!
Hi Shawn, I have seen you in West Coast Customs as a parts gambler, but I did not see the other part of you your talent for automobiles, hats off brother, your videos are the best I have ever seen..... (something on it) that for sure
Shawn, A few things...I will subscribed in a minute...liked already but more importantly wanna thank you for making my day. Obviously you are professional grade & a little disclosure as I have a way different background and age than you might expect but your energy and work is so great you deserve the best and I sure as hard as you work it definitely will. Ok I am a NYC born guy who like many bought a few cars over the years but never owned a Vette. You make a guy wanna find $4600 and to use the phrase spin the wheel😅. I'm now 65 and build only electric skateboards...Again I only mention this to let you know how far your work attracts and effects. A city guy that neva owned a Vette & only builds e•boards thinks the most of you. Bless you and thank for making me dream again that perhaps one day I can ride fast in one and maybe even shake your hand. This comes from the heart sir...May every good thing arrive at the doorstep of your garage & and heart. Note: Subscribed & liked...hope it helps...wish you go over a million as quick as that turbo charged LS2.
I dumped my girlfriend because she didn’t want to scribe to Shawn’s channel. No worries, bro I got your back! ❤
Ricky's got my back!!!! Man, that is funny.
Ricky you really dumped Jenny?

She told him too run and he's still runnin...

Love how you take the time to explain the issue and how it is affecting the vehicle.
Reminds me the how the tall guy used to explain on that British show where they flipped cars
@@blackgenesis7472 Ed china, wheeler dealers
I just cannot get over the level of production and the fact that Shawn only has 3.3k subscribers - that's insane - I don't own a Corvette (yet) but learning so much about the platform - interesting, and entertaining....
Over 10k today. Paying off now
He just got my vote. Shawn obviously has a PHD in Vettes
3.3k? Wow. Day later 13.2k
18k
Almost 19k dudes getting seen again. I remember him from TV. He did the trade up show to get 100k
the amount of work you put into a 2 minute shot of pulling your vette out and pulling in just the frame was not unnoticed!
+1 subscriber
Hell yeah man! awesome to see you making videos! My C5 is still running strong. Thanks for getting me the parts!
Rob Dahm in my comments!!! I am not worthy. I knew hooking you up with Corvette parts would pay off for me.
Shawn u are the man.
Keep the videos coming nice to not see u chopping the roof off making a zombie vette lol.
I miss the car show you did with the crew, glad to see you have a gig of your own!
@@ShawnPilot1 where could i reach out to you! ?
Shawn, please stick with the videos, I know its a lot of work, but we who are here will be loyal for sure.
Love this hobby and through your personality makes this great!
All your detail info is greatly appreciated. Be safe!
Thanks, will do!
Shawn, i really love that you decided to start with your own stuff. Been following you since the first GG season. Keep rocking man.
I love that he doesn't have to do the drama bullshit like they do on tv.
He does it on TV good though. And he seems to be doing the same exact thing here though.
You are sooo right !!!
This show is fake as hell.
@@TheSighphiguy agreed. And the shredded rubber looked like topsoil lol.
This episode's drama was based on the premise that he didn't test drive it before handing over cash, and didn't ask a lot of questions either. BS.
Shawn is the type of guy I would love to have a beer with and just talk cars all day.
Cheers
I agree!
A beer talk all day:-)
Shawn, you could totally kill it on this platform! Your personality, skills, enthusiasm, knowledge, etc. Who knew? Any idea how many Corvette fans there are out there, produce some more content and you'll have 1M subs in a NY second.
Owning a 2008 Vette myself , I love the way he is a one man show. Very inspiring.
Imagine the end credits tho -
Camera work - Shawn
lighting - Shawn
audio - Shawn
catering - Shawn
editing - Shawn,
Production - Shawn 😄

I appreciate the sub.

I hope this channel stays on and grows. It’s super entertaining and informative.
That's the plan!
@@ShawnPilot1 Awesome.
I've watched channels grow while the quality of projects suffered. I would just like to see people focus more on craftsmanship.

It's possible to gloss over something like that because of where it is in relation to the work you were doing. If the windshield washer tank is low and it's not spraying water methanol then that would explain the knocking. It just seems weird to me that someone who put that much effort into building the vet would not have it tuned correctly. Many people just used normal -20 windshield washer fluid because it is 70% water and 30% methanol and that way they can continue to use their washers as normal but some went out in bought special juice which was a 50-50 mix. The windshield washer fluid is almost as good. You end up with about 113 octane equivalency with -20° windshield, washer fluid and 116 octane equivalency with 50-50 mix.

Ok I am a NYC born guy who like many bought a few cars over the years but never owned a Vette. You make a guy wanna find $4600 and to use the phrase spin the wheel😅.

that neva owned a Vette & only builds e•boards thinks the most of you. Bless you and thank for making me dream again that perhaps one day I can ride fast in one and maybe even shake your hand. This comes from the heart sir...May every good thing arrive at the doorstep of your garage & and heart. Note: Subscribed & liked...hope it helps...wish you go over a million as quick as that turbo charged LS2.
