We RESCUE a really bad 1969 Camaro! [New Project]

[@markhue3577]

Love the road trip, I remember the same feeling the day I brought my baby home!! 50 Plus should be her name, she’s got history!!!

[@hammersgarage]

Glad you enjoyed it, hope you will share also! Thanks for watching and thanks for the name idea!

[@tomwill5627]

The wheels are weld wheels made by Craiger. I sold the car to the person Issac brought it from. It came from Girard, Ga.not Waynesboro.

[@NDoghouse]

WTF is a "Craiger". Dumarse comment.

[@sublime929]

That's a cool find. Already has some go fast parts on it, got really lucky with the 12 bolt. The wheels are Welds, just have Cragar center caps.

[@nedeljkoradovic8328]

Gotta love a 1969 Camaro!

[@MJenkinsD150]

I'd call it 'IRA', because that is where all my money would be spent! Congrats on the new project. Looking forward to this series.

[@hammersgarage]

Lol…thanks, and thanks for watching!

[@MichaelDevlin-s8r]

You got a gem. I hope you do a series on the restoration!

[@hammersgarage]

Doing a series, just not sure I’d call it a “restoration”.

[@selbster1726]

Like most projects you might end up calling it "Money Pit". But unlike many project cars finished 69 Camaros are like gold... Enjoy the journey!

[@michaelsmall6818]

A feller can't help but to be a little jealous 😢😢😢 that's my dream car right there... ❤❤❤ she's gonna be a bute clark 🎉

[@billmcmeekin7909]

1969 Camaro has that rear quarter panel line that pop's!!!! Beauty :⁠-⁠) 1966 Chevelle is my dream 60's car. Maybe one day 🤞 Cheers Hammer 👏

[@hammersgarage]

Thanks, and thanks for watching!

[@adamvalenzuela6626]

1966 chevelle? Great i own one with a 327 original engine.

[@billmcmeekin7909]

@@adamvalenzuela6626 Awesome Adam!!! :⁠-⁠) Enjoy bud. What you have is as rare as hens teeth now. Keep living the good life smiling :⁠-⁠)

[@freshbutplain1144]

Hear me out. I’d call it something like “Cam-hero” since you’re it’s Hero and saving it! Nice it came with the floor pans and extra parts. That’s a great start.

[@hammersgarage]

I hear ya! Thanks for watching!

[@rogermahaffey26]

glad you like it

[@garageofdreams3549]

You are 100% correct about those ketchup packs, I’m always saying the same thing. 69 looks like a cool project, show it some love.

[@TrashcanGarage]

I'd call it "mine". 🤣Looks like a fun project even with the floor pan sheetmetal work you have ahead of you. The only problem I see will be living up to everyone else's expectations. People get weird around these more popular cars when they see other folks doing things they don't "approve" of. Brings back memories of my first project that I hauled home from central Georgia near Forsyth. The trip and the comments from folks who saw it on the trailer made the effort worth it.

[@hammersgarage]

I hear you, except I don't care about other folks expectations. My rig, my way.

[@TrashcanGarage]

@@hammersgarage - I agree 💯 %

[@questsischiller4443]

Good Luck !! Long road ahead. I have a 1969 Camaro but it was much better when I started it was a roller as well. It will be worth it in the end.

[@CarlosVazquez-p4c]

Have fun restoration with her!!!

[@hammersgarage]

Thanks, will do!

[@is3180]

Cant wait 2 c the process my friend ..✌️

[@hansjensen7823]

Looking forward to the build!

[@hammersgarage]

Thanks for watching!

[@clydearmstrong6378]

WOW !!

[@averagejoe9234]

congrats on the find! how about "Sir Six a lot"

[@hammersgarage]

Lol…if you mean “Sir Sux A lot” then I like it! Thanks for watching!

[@BD-ly7xj]

Fine.....I subscribed. Lol Can't wait to see how it goes. I have a 69RS that I bought off a high school friend and stuck in my parents' barn. I thank God that I've held onto it.

[@hammersgarage]

You’re one of the few that did, most stories I hear go the other way. Thanks for the sub!

[@Novarider72]

You've got a lot of metal work ahead of you. Good luck !! I'd you change your mind on keeping the car let me know what you want.

[@hammersgarage]

Will do, thanks!

[@drewcrabtree9607]

The krusty crab lol

[@hammersgarage]

😂😂😂 that’s a good one! Thanks for watching!

[@Bob-kw07g]

Hey bud! Brings back some memories. I bought one just like it in 1988 and it was a puss case also. Mine had a running motor/4 speed but there wasnt a panel on or in that car that wasnt rusted out. Bought from original owner for $500 and worked on it four years and almost gave it away. 😢

[@hammersgarage]

Dang

[@TheCJWestShow]

It's Ratty and I dig it! Curious what microphone you use? Sound is great

[@hammersgarage]

It’s just a wireless lavalier that I got from Amazonia…doesn’t even have a brand name.

[@TheCJWestShow]

@@hammersgarage probably the $20 special I just ordered but sounded not so great for me lol. Great videos brother, I dig the truck

[@davidwaynesingleton6826]

I bought a 68' Camaro almost 3 years ago. I have over 25k in parts. I also had to put in new trunk, roof skin and floor, Once the pieces start going in your going to want to finish it ! "Ginger". Name for ur car. All the red that showing on it !

[@ronaldbutler9687]

I miss those wing windows.and I think it looks cleaner without those marker lights.that shit just cost extra

[@hammersgarage]

I agree!

[@tonysimons7218]

Idk what needs more work Yours or my 67 RS😂 Good find

[@hammersgarage]

If your 67 needs this much work I feel for you, good luck!

[@jaxjax5322]

Thats great camaro 💪🏼best body

[@clydearmstrong6378]

RUST N ROLL !! Rusty !

[@terrathompson9747]

Put a running engine in it with a nice sounding cam in it and name IT the SHACKER. Have shacker put on the spoiler.

[@jaxjax5322]

The widers weld doesn’t says nothing on the wheels just the skinnys ones

[@johnkelly6942]

As the saying goes, “just because you can do it, it doesn’t automatically make it a good idea”.

[@hammersgarage]

True…

[@radkeela2]

I would name it KRUSTY,can’t wait for the restoration

[@coreybutler4002]

A friend of mine sold a 69' camaro that resembled the same one( but it's not it) to a gentleman in waycross,ga some years ago and he forgot the guy's name and contact info. I was thinking maybe this gentleman may possibly know the whereabouts of my friends 69' camaro in Waycross, ga. By the way your project looks promising. Happy building!

[@hammersgarage]

Ok gotcha! Email me and I’ll see if I can help. Thanks for watching!

[@danorourke5184]

Rougher than a night in jail! I have to subscribe to see how good this one turns out

[@hammersgarage]

🤣🤣🤣

[@ksduathlete]

Any updates on this car

[@hammersgarage]

Coming soon!

[@miker6270]

Looks like mine but I think yours has a nicer body lol

[@hammersgarage]

Lol…boy that’s saying something right there!

[@markweber7275]

Trusty Rusty

[@hammersgarage]

Catchy! Thanks for watching!

[@DavidKing-py9dt]

Had one i called camer-rod because it was my hotrod.

[@hammersgarage]

Makes sense!

[@robertwestbrook9344]

Diamond in the rough, save her and breath life back into her I've had 2 69 camaros,I just can't seem to find any in Northeast Florida, call her blue on black ,blue car on black top,or how about blue by you, of course thats if you paint her back original blue ,I like the white stripe to,its going to be a cool addition to the garage.

[@chrismagnum2710]

I know a guy in South Carolina that keeps 10 acres of first gens at all time...

[@hammersgarage]

For sale or just keeps them?

[@jmooney2880]

I’d name her Marilyn, cause she’s a dream girl.

[@hammersgarage]

I like it!

[@roddogg914]

The guy said it was a Georgia car, s name it the Rotten Peach 🤣

[@hammersgarage]

Makes sense! Thanks for watching!

[@LouisJr.]

Hello! Hammers Garage. Since this car is not a SS Model what package is it & what V8 engine do you think it had in it?

[@hammersgarage]

It appears it was just a base model car, likely with a 307.

[@johnpongrass1436]

I would have bought it, ex race car, got a little history, will be a fun car eventually.

[@hammersgarage]

I think so too, looking forward to getting it out in public lol

[@alshotrodgarage4779]

Do an engine from the junkyard 5.3 or 6.0 LS carbureted with a 4L 80 transmission

[@hammersgarage]

Not a bad plan!

[@adamvalenzuela6626]

Conrad is the name.

[@hammersgarage]

Name it taboo and she'll automatically be mean

[@nelsonoyedeji3816]

You should name the Camaro : Ole Rusty

[@michaeldixon3562]

That car has Bobby Jo written all over it , When i see it it reminds me of that girl in high school that was kinda pretty but now after numerous men have had her and shes a weekend alcoholic shes kinda rough

[@hammersgarage]

😂😂😂

[@Jeff-io2zn]

That's awesome. I knew a gal just like that.

[@zone47]

That should clean up ok. Nice that you have a 12 bolt to start with... Maybe it's an SS car?

[@hammersgarage]

Wish it was…

[@terrencegiordan2775]

call it moldy nine. Because of the interior and it's a 69.

[@hammersgarage]

Makes sense, thanks for the idea! Also, thanks for watching!

[@peterGriffin-ug7jv]

I know where a 67 is just sitting in the woods on a cement slab in way worse condition than this one

[@hammersgarage]

Worse than this is basically dust…

[@joshuaallen8920]

@@hammersgarage it's not quite dust yet lol but the whole bottom of the car is rusted out and the seats are so bad they're down to the metal and springs I don't know how long it's been sitting but I wouldn't mind getting it out of there if I had the money and knew who owned it

Shit that car ain't that bad

[@NDoghouse]

Hey internet cowboy you pointed to the totally wrong area for the vacuum line penetrations in the firewall. You don't even know the important points to show on film. I have obsessed and owned 31 Camaros since 1979 in high school. It's all i know, my first love. I left all the other cars to everyone else. Now I can not even afford a project because of stupid people like this who are in it solely for the money and not the love. I can't help but think about all the people you fked over in life to get to where you are today. Karma is an unavoidable beatch though.

Sorry you’re having a bad day. 😎
