Thank you Mark!

Awesome video Ryan. You are doing a professional job. Glad I got to see your wife, and dog. Music was also great. Anxious for the next video. Have a great day

Thanks Ron, glad you enjoyed it!

Fantastic progress and how great that your wife helped you out. Getting down and dirty pulling the floor covering with no gloves even!

[@goodvibes5487]

It's been a real pleasure watching this car come together. You're doing a great job. A man after my own heart with all the OCD cleaning and restoring.

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

🙂👍

[@willemvandernest3249]

If I ever need a car restored you will be the first guy I will phone. I must say I'm really impressed by the work you do on your car. Hats off to you for showing us that you don't need a panel shop to do a excellent job. I do hope more young people sees this and get inspired by what you do

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Thank you, that is the goal! My garage is pretty basic/small but you don’t need fancy stuff to get a good result 🙂

[@willemvandernest3249]

@@RyanSampsonRPh So true. It's not the size of the garage it's the size of your heart that you put into this project. Anyway I do hope that you do another one after this. Maybe a old RS to go with this car. I love the old RS Camaro cars. Somehow the new muscle cars just don't have that certain something that the older cars had. Make no mistake the new cars is beautiful but it lacks the simplicity with the raw muscle the old cars had. I think there is too much extras on the new cars like screens where you can choose which mode you want to drive in. Back in the day there was only one mode and that was muscle mode. No launch control etc. I think you know what I mean. I almost thought they got it right again with the Demon but then they added all the bells and whistles and somehow spoiled that old muscle feel with it

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

@@willemvandernest3249 Couldn’t have said it better myself! Newest “fun” car I own is a 2006 and I have no desire to get anything else new. I will be doing another car after the camaro within the chevy family 🙂

[@Zelaznogsiul-63]

Love to watch a young man working on older cars, I wish my son had the passion that you have for cars, that way I won’t be doing everything by myself. My new project is a 1980 turbo trans am pace car, I won’t be doing the body or paint work but the mechanical I will be doing mostly. Great video.

Incredible floors! Good call to add modern SD. The interior gets the most scrutiny, since you live in it. Excellent work! 👍👍

[@robj2704]

Your car is in exceptional condition for a 1973. That's a really good find. I restored an '80 Malibu 10 years ago, and the interior panels, seat covers, dash pad, headliner, etc., all had to be replaced. Finding an older car that you like and has good restoration potential is not easy. You're using good techniques/methods to preserve this car for years to come.

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Thanks Rob! I did luck out for sure, usually I buy rotted out junk that needs a complete restoration so this is a nice change👍

[@ald6829]

I love watching you put so much love and attention into the car. I guess it's your partner that was helping and it's great when you can both work on a project together. I still miss my '86 Trans Am but seeing you rebuild this is great therapy. Keep going buddy. Respect from the UK.

[@musekmkr]

Nice job. Watched the whole series. Very gratifying. Glad to see you finally bought a battery operated 3/8 ratchet ;) Probably one of my favorite tools. I use mine all the time.

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Thanks Bill! Yeah I didn’t know how much time it actually saved until I used one. Saves the forearms too haha

Just found this channel. Loving the videos. I really like your attention to detail and the telling of products etc you use. Keep it up!

[@Supercell725]

Good to see you again Ryan, your doing a great job on your Camaro and you even got some quality help. The car is really coming together, I did 3 Chevelle’s 30 years ago and your video is bringing back some distant memories. I’m really enjoying this and can hardly wait till you finish and put that baby on the street. You two be safe and take care and I’ll wait patiently for the next video.

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Nice, I still want to do a Chevelle too (I have the car sickness)! Thank you for watching Larry!

Looking good! I'm amazed how rust free this car is. I like the original paint too, even with a few blemishes. They are only original once.

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

I think the same thing! I keep looking and haven’t found anything major yet. Touched just about everything on the car now haha

[@briancaldwell1568]

I am extremely impressed with how you are approaching this car. I still have my very first car, a 1968 Camaro. I wish I could have you do some work on the car for me. I think this car of yours probably looks better than it did when it rolled off the assembly line. Also great that your wife is willing to work with you ! Keep the videos coming and I look forward to seeing the jag come together.

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Thank you for those kind words Brian! I can’t wait for the Jag project either. It’s my ultimate dream car that I never thought I would be able to own. Have to resist the urge to start the jag and finish my other car projects first though 😔

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

[@johnwagner4559]

A good old school trick is before you attach sound deadener, heat area with blowdryer or heat gun. Then go over with roller. This applies to any surface you're trying to attach with glue or adhesive backed things. I use 303 on my plastics too. Love they're products.

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

I will keep that trick in the ol memory bank, thanks for the tip John!

[@skinnerhound2660]

Hey Ryan, looking good. That sound deadening material works great inside the door panels. I have put it just about everywhere I can hide it, makes a big difference. Just an observation.

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

Good to know it actually works! 🙂

[@donbearden1953]

Ryan, you definitely have it looking good! If you don’t find new carpet that you like, you can steam clean the original and get any odors out. Have you heard anything from the machine shop on your engine? Thanks for the update!

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

They said 2 more weeks 🙂! They could have been done with it but they wanted to be fair and complete the jobs that were ahead of mine first (understandable)

[@rkrommel2728]

Looks great man, you know your stuff! My door panels were off the car when I bought it, so I don’t know what clips/screws I’ll need to attach them. Would you have any pics of the panels with the clips in them by chance? I have the top piece installed, just need to do the lower two pieces. Also, how do those pieces attach to each other? Thanks for posting these videos, super helpful.

I agree, I would normally have went with black but since it was stock I’m a sucker for keeping it the oem color it came with.

Do you order from Skip White Performance out of Kingsport Tennessee, my cousin builds engines for them

[@shadvan9494]

Hey Ryan. I was watching this and I noticed your car is missing the window blow out tabs. They help hold the window to weather stripping at the roof line, and keep the window from pulling away from the weather strip above 25mph. The are made of a spring steel with a rubber coating. Just a tad bit of info. They made 2 different style door handles. The first first type are the long style. They were used until 1974. the second is the short style that were used from. 75-81. A lot of other gm cars also used this style of handle, but the unlocking mechanisms are different. The OER units are decent. They are actually an improvement over the factory handles. I hunted a long time for a pair of NOS handles for my 71 SS396 only to discover the chrome was better on my OER handles. fbodywarehouse.com/store/Camaro-1970-1971-1972-1973/weatherseals-weather-seal-kits/1970-1981-camaro-trans-am-weather-seal-channel-blow-out-tabs-with-install-video-.html

You should have put some of that extra Kilmat in the doors before you buttoned it up.

You’re right, I rushed and didn’t want to wait on more material to ship to me. I may throw some in there later on!

[@bryantaylor8085]

Pretty sure you can drill the heads of the rivets out

[@RyanSampsonRPh]

You could do that too but some of the rivets were too close to the window’s edge even if you dropped the window down, risking the drill bit nicking the window. Belt sander was way easier/faster for me personally👍

[@johnmilner7603]

My window sweeps on my 70 are screwed on.
