You're so lucky to find a 3rd gen camaro with a 5 speed for 200 dollars. The rims are worth more than that. I am so envious. That will make a beautiful car with just a little tlc. Congrats on your find.

Hi Griff it’s been awhile since I’ve seen you. I’m so glad you’re back. For 200.00 that was the steal of the century I love this car the wheels make it look nice 👍 looking forward to see more content from you this year. On your factory temperature gauge you probably be better off to get a mechanical temperature gauge for precise readings the tachometer may be grounded out the reason it’s pegged out and the aftermarket tachometer check the wiring to see if it’s wired correctly. Again thank You for coming back to bring more videos. Wishing you a Blessed One Sir. Greetings from Silverstreet South Carolina.

A suggestion from a GM VAN NUYS AUTO WORKER Always drop tank and clean, and never run fuel out, these pumps need fuel to cool .After 675 camaros Pontiacs a night 8hrs for 10yrs. There is a coolant for temp for the OB1 and fans and engine Temps. Clean and flush engine new coolant, wiggle test sensors and check GROUNDS.

I found my 84Z 4 hours away from me. Not a bad car at all. In decent shape for its age. Underside was clean as hell. I put a crap ton of new stuff in it when i got it but it wanted to go from the beginning. Once it was mechanically solid, I buffed it out and it shined up real nice. Now im working on asthetics like door and top seals. I like seeing these cars come back from the dead. Theres something nice about it.

Great camaro - it looked like it handled pretty nice out there (not like steering a ship). Big improvement on the paint. I second the motion on adding some seafoam, maybe drip some into the intake + add to gas tank. If you add seafoam to the oil you should change oil within a couple tanks of gas. Another cool car resurrected. Good to see you back. Jealous of your warm weather up here in 🇨🇦. Happy New Year.

Okay I'm half way through this video and I'll watch the rest when I get back from getting my daught from school. I noticed how old this video is and I hope it isnt already too late but I see you are a bigger guy like myself. I own a 2002 camaro and just live the gen 3 Camaros also. You said you have never owned one before so to save your seats from tears and breaking, use the bottom of the door seal when you are getting out of the car. Most people dont and either use the steering wheel or the seat itself. Either they loosen the collum or they tear and break the seats quick. My 2002 has 95k miles and still looks in mint condition. Camaros are nice and great cars you just have to take a little extra care of them. I'll have to watch all the videos on this car for sure.
