Supercharged LS3 Restomod '68 Camaro SS

[@oldfriend327]

You said you wanted to hear from us. All I can say is this. I like that car so much and especially with the combo of the supercharger, automatic transmission, hideaway headlights, and various modern upgrades that if given the choice between that car and a spaceship, I would choose that car no joke. Those springs in the suspension and disc brakes too look like they are really well made.

[@craigm2484]

I was falling asleep from a long ass day of work and hit the button to hear this Beast shreading tires Im awake now !! Sick car ..Dig it .

[@AutotopiaLA]

Glad we woke you up!! It was a fun shoot for sure. Great people and great build!

[@johnmargaritis9549]

Bad ass ride and the owner rides it and not scared to drive it love the color ,

[@xr8rick]

The super high-end cars are pretty to look at, but i much prefer the ‘garage’ built cars. This Camaro is another one in my top 10 cars you’ve featured. So....that makes about 30 cars in my top 10 🤣😂

[@dreyn7780]

Wrong. Without the influence of the brands you wouldn't have any ideas. They do all the hard work and you use them to day dream.

[@RipRider916]

But what rear end do you use with that 4L80 and 3000 stall. It’s got to be geared relatively low to burn like that. Is it 4.11’s. I think. I missed where you said.

[@xr8rick]

Dryen what are you trying to say? I’m not wrong, I’m simply giving my opinion. You might be different, but i don’t need to draw inspiration from a $500K show car to know what i like and how I’d like to build my car.

[@AREALAMERICAN]

That's funny because most of the time I can set down a name on my top 10 favorite cars but then when you start seeing beautiful artwork like full artwork like this then I'm like you I have about 30 or 40 in my top 10

[@luceatlux7087]

the American garage built cars feel more rugged and basic (well-known) to me. like, you know if something is wrong or goes wrong, the fix is going to be relatively easy and simple, readily available. so I tend to drive it with that understanding. Sometimes a bit less precision engineering and cheaper parts makes sense. my friend has a mid tier BMW and it costs him thousands for small repairs and you have to worry about who's working on it, etc. so he tends to drive with a giant stick up his butt. no one's driving his car, ever. I think he would refuse to let someone else drive it if his life was in real danger...

[@christophwilhelm6431]

The EFI, exhaust sound, visible rear shocks.. The huge radiator, custom color, rims.. Flogg that frog!

[@AutotopiaLA]

Yessir!!

[@anhiirr]

the tires too they never tell a lie

[@RipRider916]

That frog is tight though

[@dreyn7780]

What sound? The apple mac version or the PS5 headphone sound version or the home theatre version or what? What sound did you hear? Do you even have a subwoofer?

[@iansharpe8420]

That dash is rad. Talked to the owner the first time he went to QC, super great guy. Although not what I would personally do, I love this car, it's the perfect show/driver car.

[@dreyn7780]

Wrong, wrong and wrong. There's No time to correct all your faults.

[@kitvexed8229]

the owner is probably my favorite owner of ANY autotopia video i've ever seen - this guy is having fun!

[@777mello]

Clean AF. I'm glad you show realistic builds..this is possible for a normal working dude to build..what sets you apart👍🏾

[@AutotopiaLA]

Glad you like it. We like to show a variety from the garage to the big $$ builds. We simply shoot what we think is cool and this is definitely cool af!

[@awokeone7997]

If you're making over $100k a yr you can build this car. Nothing cheap with the parts they used in this build and every lil bit adds up quick!

[@VuTube96]

You can tell Shawn drives the car with respect to the owner... barely goes past 50% throttle and never breaks traction. Love the courtesy!

[@ssnova3210]

Just come back from a nice 15k run, got a spare 20 mins and BOOM another great video! What a start to the day. Yet another cool car.

[@rajnbull]

I am very happy for you Shawn. your channel has exploded in the past year. love the color, not the year. Stay Gold. I'm Audi 5000

[@AutotopiaLA]

Thanks! We keep working and growing it thanks to you and the other folks that watch what we do. Much appreciated

[@da_schlaga]

I'm not a chevy guy. Except the 68 camaro. This build is really cool and this is one of the best chevy sounds so far. Thanx.

[@ZEPRATGERNODT]

This car sits better than most I’ve seen and it’s not Mickey Moused or over the top. This thing is proper!

[@AutotopiaLA]

Yes, stance is perfect and it’s a driver all the way

[@buckreynolds1779]

color pops

[@generalsixty2133]

cool color and the stance is dialed in. Love the 68 grill.

[@dreyn7780]

You don't love the grill cause it was painted to disappear. It was painted to have NO appearance in the image.

[@donricolife1861]

The color the power sick. 🏆

[@Nicefoolkilla]

Best paint job I've ever seen!

[@ryanmatchett6481]

Gotta get me a v3 like this. I really like the clean set up. Great review!!

[@fuel_magazine]

Absolutely love this car and the fact that the owner drives the hell out of it and enjoys every second of it!!!

[@grantfinley2672]

As always another great video and car , the wheels and the rear end for me are what stands out and the details on those door handles dope

[@brucefoster1215]

I like that color it's subtle but the exhaust makes up for that.

[@keithpetersen560]

What a great looking car, that you can drive and beat. Everybody should own a car like that. Great review.

[@bzmaro]

Wow that Dash!!!! So cool. Also I will join you with a bag of chips, that color is so rad! Love this one a lot Shawn. Well done gents!

[@richardwarfield7386]

certified hide roaster ! luv the green

[@AutotopiaLA]

Love this build!

[@jsm42050]

That color for some reason reminds me of a old military keep that is put in a museum.

[@Stingingcookie4]

Did he say "LS3, 6.0 iron block" or am I hearing things? lol an LS3 is an aluminum block and a 6.2L...

Yeah I’m hella confused, yall think its actually a ls3 or is it a 6.0?

[@sladeb6036]

Sweet car and it did look really smooth over the bumps.

[@dreyn7780]

They're nicely protected inside that car. They won't have to worry about sunscreen or hair pieces blowing of in the wind. They're nice and safe inside that weather protection features.

[@MrMander87]

Love the sound of the engine! Great looking car!

[@dreyn7780]

And what TV made the sound? Soundbar? Home theatre? Dolby atmos? What? You must think we're all stupid. What version of the car did you see? The Samsung colour version? The apple mac version? Everyone's got a different screen image and sound reproduction. I've got realistic colour, vivid colour, boosted colour, enhanced colour, cinema colour, Dolby digital colour etc. Etc. . So what colour are you talking about? My TV does 50 colours and 50 sounds of the 1 colour and 1 sound. I've got regular subwoofering version and low volume subwoofering and enhanced sound and ultra enhanced sound and on and on it goes. So what is the sound you love? Is it the BOSE soundbar version 5000 or the PS5 headphone sound or what? Nobody in 2021 knows what you're talking about anymore.

At first glance, I was thinking, "yawn, another LS powered Camaro." I clicked on the video anyway. Watching the video, I'm seeing a bunch of stuff (paint, automatic, electronic dash, LS power, spoiler) I wouldn't do, but for some reason it works for me. It is near perfect. Put a front bumper on it and it would be perfect.

Interesting color, surprisingly I like it. LS3 iron 6.0? LS3 was an aluminum 6.2. Probably an LQ4 or LQ9. Wish the front of the car was a little more complete. Almost seems like it's missing parts, lots of gaps. Maybe a dark intercooler? Overall amazing car
