Loved these repair videos, thank you so much bro! As someone who had a '93 Z28 for 5 years and let it get dirty and beatdown, this gave me faith with my well-kept new '96 Z28 💯 I didn't realize how simple some of these TLC repairs were.
_Great video and great job Jeff for certain. Amazed at how simple these parts can be changed out as opposed to C4 interior components. (I had an affinity for these fourth gen Camaros in 1996, henceforth I bought an almost new '96 Z28 in '96. The car was a 6 speed, t-tops, leather and fully loaded gem). Hard to believe the interior components haven't aged well at all._
Ive just been given a 95 Z-28 with 81,000 miles. Cammed, ported heads, 11.5 to 1 compression and nitrous. He blew a head gasket 4 or 5 years back, was about to put cometic head gaskets on it, but ran up on a deal on a 72 Lemans. He started restoring it and lost interest in the Camaro. He knew ive been wanting a quick car for years. Since i became disabled, the dreams of ever owning one were gone. So he said he wanted me to have it. Hopefully i get to go pick it up one day this week. Im still in shock that he is giving it to me. He had it dyno's and it made 421 to the wheels on all motor. He took it to the local drag strip, and on nitrous, he clocked a 7:40 in the 1/8th mile. Only thing wrong with it is the head gasket, and the paint is shot. Interior is black with leather seats and its mint.
Yay! More Camaro content I also have the dreaded broken console lid. Problem with mine is on the console the plastic latch where the rod goes through is broken. 😡 So I basically need a new console
I like what you did with the steering wheel, lve heard stories about the airbags. I drained my power steering fluid by draining it on the rack n piñon unit, it worked great
Hey I can tell from your Camaro console selector it came with 2.73 rear gears and the 1st gear lockout on the shift console. You can easily remove it and put a console piece from one that allows you to manually select down to 1st gear. GM did it for some stupid reason, can't remember why...on the optioned 3.23 geared cars you could select all four. Change the rear gears out, the car will be much quicker.
GM nstalled 2.73 gears, 110 mph speedometer, & blocked the shifter from going into 1st gear on cars that didn't have z rated tires from the factory.. Some z28 convertibles also
Great video and nice upgrades. My only suggestion is if your console is in bad shape to upgrade to a newer 97 to 02 console that actually has usable cup holders lol.
2:46 if you don't like the camaro shifter you can get a firebird one to replace it and have a T-Handle type instead. I never liked the chevy version, my Z has a firebird one.
Hey it's me from your first Camaro video I found two hours ago, well I proceeded to watch the whole series. Loving the content and I just subbed, keep up the good work and I can't wait to see what you do next with the Catfish.
The only way to fix the horn for real is to replace the broken piece. It's dirt cheap but you have to pull that retaining pin and lift off the clock spring.
Is it… different designs last longer? Or… different material? If the center console lid was made of metal around the hinge & latch… it'd still be good!
Hello. The panels on my are bulging out also. I want to adjust that this week. I will check for some vid`s on how to do that. I just installed a Maddog built tranny. I have a Moser GM 12-bolt I will installing asap. Then I am pulling the heads to replace the head gaskets before they fail. It just turned 100,000 mi on it last week. I can inspect the cam, etc. Thank you.
3:38 I see you have the selector that doesn't show "1" or 1st gear. while you have it apart shift it into 2nd and you'll see a plastic block blocking you from shifting further. cut off that block and you'll be able to shift into manual 1st, even though the selector wont show it. when you see it you'll understand. its obvious.
GM blocked out 1st gear on auto cars in that era to meet sound loudness govt specs. The car will shift into 1st and function like normal. they just put a block in there to stop you from doing it from the factory to pass sound level requirements.
Happy man in his happy car making all his accesories happy happy as in functional. I can't stand the center console rather change it to a difrent style entirely
Good Video 👍 I have question! I have alarm on my car but i dont have a remote controll to my car! Mine is a V6 1993 but i dont dont if only v8 have a remote controll to the alarm?
The lack of a low range/first gear position seemed kind of weird to me. Apparently it was locked out due to some strange federal noise requirement and you can simply cut off a plastic stop to allow the shifter to move down to 1st. ls1tech.com/forums/automatic-transmission/550163-secret-1st-gear-4l60e-any-damage-caused.html

I love your car I’m working on mine now . She’s a ‘99 T-Top . Working on a new fuel pump & throttle body.
Camaro looks great. I’m also a 4th gen camaro owner.
Me too, it’s a cool car I love it
Woooh, this is honestly my next project on mine
👍👊
I have a 1996 Camaro Z28 convertible that I’ve had for 16 yrs.
I own a 1995 Camaro Z/28 convertible, I have own it since 2010. Fun car, but do to its age and tons of plastic, you're constantly replacing parts. 🤣
Love your videos! Starting a project on a 1994 Z28 convertible!

I’m glad you did the shifter nob and center box lid I’m doing the same next week to my 1994

Hello, im a new subscriber from Chile! I have a 1994 Camaro Z28. I like so much the content of your channel, thanks a lot!
Nice video.
Very helpful. Informative. You've got a voice that is easy to listen to.
I liked it!
11:35 normally i only buy gm parts for body things. in this case the aftermarket one fits just as well.
But wait! How do we know what music you like, what you like to eat and what kind of shoes you wear?! LOL. Love those fun facts.
I like what you did with the steering wheel, lve heard stories about the airbags. I drained my power steering fluid by draining it on the rack n piñon unit, it worked great
Thanks for the video. I'll be doing the center console as well. I'm looking around to get my sail panel replaced of painted.
Thanks for the video i want a fbody Camaro one day

Hi dude,love your videos, helps me repairing my 4 gen. Would it be possible that you make a video how to repair the wheel bearin¿
Much love

Love the car man, I'll be doing some things to my 97 as well.
Just got yourself another subscriber, excellent video👍
If you like a t- shaped shifter... a firebird shifter fit right on there. I don't like the camaro shifter so I have a firebird t hand on mine.
At your kids soccer game thinking and imagining this the whole time instead of paying attention to the soccer game😂
I watched the game too. I can do two things at once.😉
Awesome vids thank u just bought me a 95 also ty keep them coming 🍻 new Sub
Good Job !
Your making me want to fix my 94 it just need a ton of work!😥

your dash is cracked
Just a little 😉.
My center console is the exact same way
Hi was good video ,a will good if you have anything about replacing the dash panel and the signal lights/wiper /cruse control lever access

Would like to see the lens replaced. Great vid.

Happy man in his happy car making all his accesories happy happy as in functional. I can't stand the center console rather change it to a difrent style entirely
please add links of everything you bought
Is it wrong I want to swap a 93-97 front-end on to my 2000? Might do it 😄 will the airlid hit the hood 🤔
I'd love actual upgrades like mirror directional,
Can you raise the steering wheel on the Camaro
Do you still have your old shift knob?
Good Video 👍 I have question!
I have alarm on my car but i dont have a remote controll to my car! Mine is a V6 1993 but i dont dont if only v8 have a remote controll to the alarm?
Should have replaced that faded turn signal lever while you were in there.
I didn't think of it. Is it difficult (never done it)?
@@ReynoldsRides not sure was curious as to how much of a pain it is. Have to do mine because of fading.
where’d you find a new console lid?
Hawks Motorsports
Where did you buy the shift plate
eBay
I have a question do you leave your camaro outside?
Yes, I do.
@@ReynoldsRides how does the paint hold up in the winter?
@@ReynoldsRides just bought a 2001 camaro and gonna leave it outside but I wanna keep it nice through out the winter
Can I know what is the battery Number,please
Thanks

If you have a larger rear end ratio you get a 1st gear option, like a 3.23 or something like that but the smaller gear ratio usually has no first gear
First!
Well done.😉
Nice job, airbags are an unwelcome complication.
Thanks Bart!
Can you send me the used parts that have been exchanged? I'm from Iraq
Yup, these center console lids were are horrible design. Was able to rebuild mine using a hinge, some scrap metal, and some rivets.
Nice! That’s pretty impressive.
Was thinking of doing this as well. Was it easy?
It wasn't too bad, takes a lot of thought and test fitting.
JESUS CHRIST IS GOD AMEN
✝️🙏🗡️👑
that center console is poorly designed
so easy to break
