700 hp All Motor '69 Camaro Detroit Speed Built Restomod

[@brianspangler3771]

A 69 camaro with an LS7 is such a great combination.

[@hawiianpwr]

For sure, a 69 with an LS7 mated to a six speed. One badass combo for sure.

[@so5ofour]

Fucking nuts! I love that shit

Detriot Speed is running in the top of the restomod industry. I'm in Raleigh and there is an untapped market here.

[@firststep7750]

It's modernised but not over the top. It's a solid balance! I love that you're travelling too!! Killer.

[@chrisolevich7538]

Recently bought a 69 with an LSA. Having tune , pulleys , intake and bit of extra work done for now. I’ve been dreaming of owning a car like this with my dad who’s sadly passed since I was a little kid. If not for him I’d never be able to own one. Sean from Autotopia never fails to put a smile on my face. So many amazing stories , people with incredible talent, heartwarming stories and the cars he gets to drive .... Damn!!! Several dreams come true lol. Been following Detroit speed for some time now as well.... Outstanding work. Hoping my car finds its way up there for some extra work in the coming months.

[@andrewipp426]

It seems to be the perfect 69 Camaro, 10 year old build and did I hear correctly that the owner drives from New Jersey to Florida with this car? That is a reliable driver’s car, being that confident to take it on a 1000 mile trip each way! That’s the way to instill confidence for the owner knowing he or she is not gonna break down. You can see how Kyle is so passionate about how he builds cars for his customers, making sure everything has been shaken down and trouble shot that it what every gear head wants to feel when his cars being built. DETROIT Speed has the right formula for building restomod / proTouring cars thank you Shawn for bringing great cars yet again!

[@AutotopiaLA]

Love your comment here and yes, Kyle and his crew are as pro as it gets! What an awesome car and we’ve got a couple more to show from them soon

[@UNOwen-nn6ui]

Im lying in a Hospital right now, his video pops up and just brightens my day man. Big thank you to Autotopia and Shawn for always making my day with these kinda videos! Stay safe guys^^.

[@AutotopiaLA]

Hope you’re ok? Glad we can make your day a little brighter. Seriously hope you’re well and sorry you’re in the hospital

[@pinotgrizio3567]

Shawn whoever your sound guy is did an unbelievable job getting Kyles soft spoken voice over that exhaust. Mad props love this channel!

[@YukonDemon]

I think this is hands down the nicest first gen Camaro I've seen. Not overdone, beautiful interior, and power!!! Not to mention, bad ass exhaust note at idle. And everywhere else for that matter. Thanks again Shawn for making my day a bit brighter. 👍🤘

[@dumbmechanic5215]

Took the words right out of my mouth. I read the comments to see if anyone would mention it - it's not overdone, it's subdued, but that's what makes it what it is. Best looking first gen I think I've seen. I'm so so jealous!

[@YukonDemon]

@@dumbmechanic5215 Hell yeah! Such a beautiful build

[@EngineManiacBoy]

This Is a Special Car, She's look like a "classic"69 Camaro But Under the Hood is a Really Beast. I love It

[@robertc4311]

...met Kyle and Stacy Tucker at the Power Tour in San Berdo back many years ago. They were super nice people and just starting their company. I had a 69 Camaro SS/RS at the time, and it was a build in progress that was influenced by Mark Stielows pro touring builds. I remember we talked about rear tire size figment, and I believe they had a yellow and black 69 Camaro? Watched their company grow and make an impact and become the “go to” company for pro touring...awesome people who deserve their success.

[@AutotopiaLA]

Never met her but Kyle is not only a great engineer but truly a wonderful person to know

[@coyoteslugger3936]

What I like is that every part is specially built for a purpose the interior is not overly done and the engine is simple.

[@duane9707]

AutotopiaLA, thanks for these videos from/at DS. I know it's a lot of work but I'm sure I speak for many who appreciate your work. Hats off!

[@UNOwen-nn6ui]

Absolutely! I love this channel.One of my favourites. Makes my day everytime :)

[@jeffreynolds3848]

Duane - I absolutely second that - well said!

[@danetaylor273]

This car sets the bar for a protouring 69 camaro. Absolutely perfect. Kyle's such a cool cat

[@AutotopiaLA]

Kyle is very cool and agreed on this being the definition of pro touring

[@docsaaid2939]

Camaro 69 the best gen chevy ever made. And the best upgrade autotopia did to it. Love it man. Just superb

[@AutotopiaLA]

We didn’t do the upgrades...that’s all built by DSE and it’s a badass

[@abedanielspictures]

My Dads was a 454 with a Doug Nash 5 and a 12 bolt and he sold it to someone else. Learned the hard way to love these cars!

[@a1965hah]

I love this car,no stupid body kits or rear air diffusers hanging from the rear, just plain simple and original looking👍🏾

[@ronchambers7972]

Whoa!😳Please do that one! 8:46 Real side pipes, flared and 'Merica colors👍🏼

[@keithchung2501]

Detroit Speed nailed it with this work of art. This should be the benchmark for all 69 Camaro pro touring builds.

[@davidpierorazio2644]

Thanks autotopia LA ..... 69 Camaro owner here from Australia!!!!!

[@AutotopiaLA]

Awesome! Glad you like what we do here

[@nephimcknight5832]

Absolute perfection. It couldn't be any better looking and it's got the perfect motor, transmission and interior.

[@mefadon459]

I love the classic car handles and drip rails. They need to bring it back. The shape the function. Simple and elegant

[@kevinarcher6908]

I love the power in the car every time he shifts the front end raises I wish I had the money to have one built

[@oldschoolhiphop2275]

Maple motors has them ready to go. You can finance them. Their located in Tennessee, & they have some nice classic 60's & 70's muscle. Everything is restored & ready.

[@AutotopiaLA]

Glad you liked it. Kyle is pure class and passion. Wait til you see the shoots we did on track. He can seriously drive!

[@RossRasool]

u can say by the way Kyle bites his lips doing that burnout pull away how awesome it musty be being in control of that throttle... great vid

[@AutotopiaLA]

It pulls hard and he’s a serious driver

[@kanervatie]

Great stance. Great everything! That could be the dream car I'm looking for.

[@jeffreynolds3848]

Kyle & Shawn - great post! ‘Love the look inside & out - very refined. Kyle, ‘also loving your up-shifts - and it’s really heart-warming to see a hardened pro & CEO get that excited over doing a burn-out and shifting to make those rears yelp...!

[@AutotopiaLA]

Thanks and I loved getting the time with Kyle and seeing his passion still strong as ever

Shawn, I also loved someone’s comment of Kyle - ‘Anybody who bites their lip when they’re shifting has gotta’ love what they do!’ 🤣🤣🤣

[@MZ-xm1nq]

It looks perfect. How does this 10 year old car only have 9,500 miles on it? Crazy... If this was mine I would drive it as much as possible.

[@rahrah5268]

Awesome!!

[@chrislovett87]

Great looking car that will always look like it was just built last week. I need to get by their place. I didn’t even realize they are right there off Mazeppa rd in Mooresville. I drove right by there all the time to and from, and for work. There are so many amazing shops in and around Mooresville.

[@AutotopiaLA]

This build is over 10 years old and still looks and performs like a fresh build. And you should definitely go see their place

[@tfjack97]

What a badass 69, man that is one of the nicest Camaro's I have ever seen. Plus the two young men playing on that nice North Carolina road look like two kids that just got the keys to dad's hot rod. That made me fill good just watching, and the sound is just awesome.

[@sid426_]

Finally a first gen restomod without the rs front grille. Mad respect to the builder

[@AutotopiaLA]

They build with style and class

[@robertc4311]

I guess its a personal preference...It is a nice car..but the RS grill is a more rare option! I like the painted "Endura style" front bumper which tends to make the car look more contemporary vs the chrome bumpers..I would call it more unique if it didnt have the ZL2 cowl hood...more '69's have that hood now then left the factory. LOL

[@rdy2run332]

Nothing like naturally aspirated 700hp the LS7 is a awesome engine.one of the best engines on the planet in my opinion

[@AutotopiaLA]

I’m with you all the way here

[@wolfthornhawkridge5705]

Anybody that bites their lip while their shifting loves what they do, Go Kyle!
