I love that you did this. I'm doing a complete body mod, converting my early 77 base coup to look a 72 RS. I've already gotten a ton of crap on FB groups. However, I've always planned to keep the RS/z28 badging off it and just run the original emblems. I'm making it the way 'I' want it, and the purists can go elsewhere! :D
I love the red header badge! The next one (74? Red White & Blue with the scripted out Camaro) is my favorite. I agree with you on keeping it true to 71. Very nice. If you want to sell that RWB badge, I'll buy it and put it in my garage. Have a great weekend!
I had a 71 SS Camaro (non-RS) in 1978. The upper valence panel emblem was quite oxidized even then as I think it had a plastic inlay. I don't remember there being reproduction parts back then. You were lucky if you could order a replacement at the Chevy dealer. I was sad that you left out the 78 and 79 Camaro grill emblems. They were unique in each year. 78 had the red/white/blue and 79 had no color, just black on chrome. I still have the original emblems on my 79. For most of the car's life I had 1969 Z-28 emblems in the grill and fuel door, and the original emblems put away in boxes. A couple of months ago, I placed them back on the car and they're still like new original! :)
Kind of in the same ballpark but also not really, I did bowtie delete and emblems on my 5th gen camaro. The SS emblems are pretty worn out and seem to have some enamel missing, and the bowties were also showing lots of wear. And the letter emblems on the fenders will be removed soon too, to me they look like autozone special lmao, I really enjoy the 6th gens fender badges tho, I might pick those up eventually
Great content as usual Matt, I always learn more. It’s too bad 74 was the year they switched to that ugly front bumper. I would of liked to of built a Camaro from the year I was born. Hopefully everything is going well with your daughter, still sending prayers.
Most people don’t know but there are two types of 70 emblem , has to do with the outer edge trim one has a double trim frame the other is solid chrome single
Okay so camaro talk now lol, sooo I have a 2014 camaro 2lt rs (v6) . What are ur thoughts 💭 on the k&n air filter (57-Fipk series) vs the (k&n typhoon 69-4519tp) ??? which one would you go with??
my 1980 has an RS emblem on the grill BUT not the paint job so i dont think it is an RS. The person that owned it removed the fender tag ( i have the title to the car) so not sure why he removed it but that is keeping me from finding out for sure if it is or isnt an RS
@@sanjs5796 lol my whole right lower arm is car themed. I've never even had one person yet know I even have a camaro emblem on me when they ask to look at it.
I have a spit bumper 70 with a blower rat fink style tattoo on my forearm with snooping driving in the red Barron goggles and hat in memory of my brother
The '79 Grill emblem has three black bars. I wish they were colored red, white and blue. We originally ordered a '78 and I was disappointed that they moved the Z28 emblem off the grill and replaced it as a sticker on the header panel. However, I was happy about the front spoiler and new decal package. In '79 they also didn't have a "camaro" emblem on the front fender of a Z28. Not a big deal then. However now, I wish it was there because not everyone knows it is a camaro. It could of also been the automotive press who gave the US car makers grief about chrome. Possibly if those emblems were black and not chrome they would of made it.
Hey! remember lethalpcs? So, we actually just began a business as lethalpcs.com. Sorry for invading as we realized after we bought the stuff. You seem pretty cool though!

Now I want to look at my 72 RS!
very good video, never knew about all the different emblems for the different years and styles
Run whatever one you like. F the haters
i've always loved the red 71' badge
Running 60’s SS grill emblems on my 2010 SS
I put the 80-81 grille emblem on my 79. Just had it as a spare and my car is pretty ratty so I didnt mind
I’d buy the red white and blue header emblem if still available. Seems catalog companies are all on back order. Love the videos.

I'm willing to take the 70 emblem. I'll put it on my '73.
I love the gem 6 emblems personally. I think the quality of the emblem is a lot better too. But 75 is sick too in my opinion.

Awesome info thanks
Does the 71 use a gasket or just the nuts and that’s it for hardware?
Hey. Do you know why some emblems from 75 to 77 had Orange black and red stripes instead red white and blue?
my 1980 has an RS emblem on the grill BUT not the paint job so i dont think it is an RS. The person that owned it removed the fender tag ( i have the title to the car) so not sure why he removed it but that is keeping me from finding out for sure if it is or isnt an RS
I am a fan of your channel I have a 73 Camaro RS where would you put speakers in your camera and how many
@@bernardgriffin6048 can do doors, and package tray behind the back seats. A lot of people do custom setups.
@Lethalgarage Thanks that where I have them
Really nice I like it a lot.
I am probably the only person that has the 1974 emblem tattooed on there arm lol
That's quite the flex brother 💪🏾😎
@@sanjs5796 lol my whole right lower arm is car themed. I've never even had one person yet know I even have a camaro emblem on me when they ask to look at it.
Yup I like the 74 1st. And the red c 2nd.
I have a spit bumper 70 with a blower rat fink style tattoo on my forearm with snooping driving in the red Barron goggles and hat in memory of my brother
Are you going to put a SS badge in the grille?
I am not.
I wanna get to 700hp on my 2011 ss ls3 i need a list of mods to get there please

Anyone tried to restore their emblem? I have an all original 71 RS California car and the red is completely faded out.
I've got a '71, I'm in between removing it entirely and making a custom one
The 75 looks like a cigarette lighter. The red will look good on your car, what color are your brake calipers? Red would tie in nicely with emblem.
Pro tip: watch movies at Flixzone. Been using them for watching lots of of movies during the lockdown.
@Reign Graham Definitely, I've been using Flixzone} for years myself :D
Hey, tried buying the carbon fiber trunk from AndersonComposites but it tells me that Lethal is not a valid code.. did this change?
Code was only good for the year.
@@Lethalgarage ah sounds good, at least I was able to buy the hood in November last year with your code! Saved me about $200!
Did not know this?!
Come on man..... !!!!! But keep going.
Hey! remember lethalpcs? So, we actually just began a business as lethalpcs.com. Sorry for invading as we realized after we bought the stuff. You seem pretty cool though!
Do you have anything I can hit you up on so we can talk?
Do not like when people find lt1 or v-6 Camaro so and try to pass them off as z-w8, SS etc and sell them or try.
Pal nuts
