I love how you stopped the spinning and showed the interior and the motor area at length. I truly appreciate that; makes the video that much more enjoyable. Always a pleasure to watch y'all.

[@VoloMuseumAutoSales]

Thanks Jesse, glad to hear people are enjoying the change in style. 👍

That is a real beauty, the best Camaro ever made with split bumpers .

[@chuckhaugan4970]

Yes sir..... I was 6 years old, in 1973, when my sister's boyfriend rolled up in a 70, split bumper Camaro. I still remember that car to this day. My sister had a 69 but it was the base model with the 302 and I know his car wasn't a 396. They asked me which one I liked better and without hesitation, I pointed at the 70. There was no questing, then and now, how sexy that car is to car guys of any age. And to this very day, it's the best engineering and aesthetic design GM ever produced for the Camaro line. BTW, my sister ended up marrying that guy, four years later, and they are still together to this day. Yes, they have a restored 69 in the garage, not the original car of my sisters, but one they restored, over the last 13 years, on piece at a time. The "new" Camaro is a disgrace. When will America start producing cars with character again???

@@chuckhaugan4970 NGL the split bumper is one of the only models/designs that i cant even choose weather i like vinyl or non vinyl....its that SOLID of a car/build car to car. Almost has the appeal of MOPAR or at least it has the appeal to me "the split bumper" the way MOPAR's appeal to those fans with their factory hemi builds....even though the 2 tones are the "RAREST" and IMO ugliest. Even a triple black as rare as it seems....a triple black split bumper camaro over a triple black vette for me.

[@ShelbyBikeBoy]

That’s one of the nicest looking cars I’ve ever seen in your inventory. That price is beyond fair as well

[@VoloMuseumAutoSales]

Thanks Gearbox! 😀

Jay I know this is gone but just have to say what an awesome score this was, better than a Z-28!

Please hold it for a couple days while I go buy a Powerball ticket.

Good luck! 😜

[@filedroid]

Whoever did the camera work did a very good job! Great detail of the car, dashboard, engine bay. I like this way better. Maybe it's just my opinion but I would think you would sell more cars this way.

[@VoloMuseumAutoSales]

Same people that do all the videos. 😉 We wanted to experiment for a day of filming with this different style, probably have another 4-5 videos like this one to release. We will probably be back to the other style after this while we see how it goes over.

[@Nebulasecura]

Agreed this is a much much better way of showcasing the car, especially the interior. Instead of a basic brief glance over it like normal, it actually gives you a good thorough look as if you were there looking at it here.

[@stevekaminski5327]

Fantastic Camaro! Always thought the blacked out tail light panel looks really cool. Very rare car. Wish I had the money.😞

[@22Catch22]

Your description regarding the strike at GM that led to some problems verifying some components reminded me of a 1972 SS Camaro that I restored. The car was bone stock original when I bought it, but as you know, GM had a major strike that year and they cannibalized components from many other models to complete construction of various cars. My car in particular had corvette heads, a Monte Carlo SS transmission and a rear differential from a Chevelle. I remember talking to a guy at the USCCA and even he was interested in what I was finding so that they could help chase down the history of verifying originality of components for those situations.

[@anhiirr]

I dream of cloning one of these with an L78 of my very own. Only issue is how bad i want to go custom with it i have ambitions as high as fabbing in the front grill to have no seams possibly even a 1 piece bumper/front clip With holes/chin spoiler mount points so it can be removed for CLEAN/show Appareance. and possibly bring up the rocker/line by 1" and accent it a little, or possibly flatten it out to give it more of a T/A look. Hammer out the fenders to have a z28...look of no profile/edge hanging off the fender line...while being slightly widened. Either way the only car i want the L78 in is a split bumper build...or a 66 nova II which is going to need to be "FITTED". Considering the rare/appeal of an L78 70 camaro i have a soft spot for this build.

[@markdavey2107]

Sweet ride ..

You finally got synchronization with your videos along with showing the inside. Congratulations on the new camera guy I've been waiting for this forever.

[@VoloMuseumAutoSales]

Nothing new behind the scenes, same everything. Just trying this different style to see if it helps speed up production and get more videos out. 👍 And to see what people think of it.

[@stevecarey5918]

So beautiful! I bought a new '70 Camaro RS, 350 4 speed, Camaro Gold, when I graduated college. Your video brings back memories. Thanks.

Great video Jay your at the top of your game, one question how can I buy a Volo cap like yours?

[@VoloMuseumAutoSales]

Hey Sheldon. I don't believe the exact style hat Jay is wearing is currently listed, likely a sample of a new style. We do have hats for sale on our online store, they come in many different colors. Make sure to go through the options and see what one you like the most. store.volocars.com/products/volo-mesh-snapback

[@papabearcamaro]

Too many issues for $80,000, but someone will pay it.

[@markr5132]

Nice car. Lets see the build sheet, otherwise I highly doubt it is an original RS. Because as you mentioned it does not have the correct steering wheel as it has an SS wheel off a accent group interior optioned car. Any RS car had an RS on the steering wheel and no where else if it was an SS or Z28. I which case emblems superseded the RS relative to outside. I had a 1970 SS/RS 396/350 PS,PB,AC,Tilt wheel, rear defrost.accent group with wood trim & cloth interior w console, rear small chin spoiler 4sp m21 factory hurst shifter, 3.71 posi. 12 bolt, front and back sway bars, Burnt Copper Cream Vinyl top with olive green interior Ya baby now thats a color combo LOL. It had almost every option available which my brother bought in 1971 from the original owner. Very solid car. light rear end, It wasn't too fast as is would spin while my brothers 300HP 1967 4sp walked away with better 50/50 weight distribution and IRS! Sold it to a buddy as I just had to buy a restored 1965 Corvette factory L78 Red/Black Conv that made the Camaro feel like a kitty by comparison. Would really love to find that car however, as it was so solid to drive as well as beautiful.

[@anhiirr]

didnt even advertise these....bc with the right REAR end/corvette gears. This thing would Handle its fair share of "heavier" cars at the strip. Then again the LT1 made 370. So If anything GM knew what was on the table with this platform.

[@gordocarbo]

The L78 woulda handed the Z its butt in most cases. Had both and although I love the LT1 the solid lifter 396 hand down so much better in every respect. If it were me Id put some AFRs on and paint them and an updated SFT grind.

[@Vini-Pizza]

Nice Camaro. My guesstimate $79.995.00

Good looking rebuilt car with a number of issues. That said I like watching your videos!

[@jeffreykoon2184]

Wondering what the deal is? The L78 was a 425 hp 396 not 375.

[@longhairscorpio3976]

RIGHT!?! corvette b compensatin?

[@marchicago]

Jeffrey, very good question. The L78 was rated at 425 hp in Chevy's full-sized cars (Impala, etc) and the 'Vette, vs 375 hp in the Camaro and Chevelle. Essentially, the difference boiled down to a better, freer flowing cast-iron exhaust manifold. On the Chevlle and Camaro, GM used a truck manifold owing to clearance issues. The center X-member interfered with the higher performance "center dump" type manifold. NOW you may be asking "How could an exhaust manifold free up 50 horsepower?" and you would be right. The L78 was underrated no matter which rating GM used, but there wasnt a 50 horse difference between the two applications. However, from a marketing perspective, it was in GM's best interest to give the higher priced (and higher profit-margin) vehicles the best HP rating possible. This is my understanding of the reason for the inconsistent hp ratings regarding the mighty L78.

What are you asking for the Disney World "Barbie" '70 pink Cadillac De Ville convertible?

[@VoloMuseumAutoSales]

Not currently for sale. The museum or sales Facebook is where you would probably hear about that first, if we were. facebook.com/voloautomuseum/ facebook.com/volomuseumautosales Also, as much as some may dislike them, we certainly send out email newsletters when something big like that is happening. Both Museum & Auto Sales letters would probably include it. www.volocars.com/newsletter
