Great thanks to Shawn, the AutotopiaLa team, and Dean from @SoCalCustoms for the great hospitality. Absolutely enjoyed the time meeting you and absolutely amazed by how great everythihng turned out. From the epic introduction right down to the effects and information displayed for the build details. As always look forward to seeing more videos and hope to return once the Corvette build is complete.
A reminder to everyone who forgot: GM rates the LT5 at 755 horsepower in a WORST CASE scenario. That means it's hot as balls outside, its humid, the engine is heatsoaked, you're using dog water pump gas, and you're at altitude. 1000hp out of this combo with completely stock internals is completely achievable LOL.
Further to your point my uncle has a 2019 ZR1 and he has a smaller pulley and custom exhaust and cam and running on a race gas tune he is a little over 1000hp. What’s wild is even when the car was stock chevrolet detuned it by a lot. If you look at similar sized after market blowers. they all state 1000 and up hp it’s not a far fetched claim. I’m jealous of your build and I would change nothing on it from head to toe that’s a bad bitch
@@shad3128 yep. The LT platform isn't even close to optimized yet. Can you imagine a bored/stroked 454 LT5 with an even bigger topmount supercharger and integrated intercooler unit? Pure smoke for DAYS.
@@kennethraff2002 Just amazing how far tech has come. So much power wiht a warranty ac on idles like a kitten. Blwn away, GM did the hot rodding for us
@@AutotopiaLA Dig the accent stripes, that bit of red really sets it off Always wondered what cutting into the front of the cowl hood could look like. Great opp for cold air even for a carb
God bless this man for involving his boys!! That's what keeps our beloved hobby alive!! Very cool car, and as usual, love ya Shawn. Thanks for the great videos!!
Shawn and crew 499k subs...I can smell 500k in the air. Really appreciate all the quality videos you guys post week after week after week. 500k accolades is so well deserved. Take a bow gentlemen as we press on to 1M !
Gio, great ride my man. It's tasteful, has all the trimmings.....Good to hear you plan on letting your kids drive/inherit them. Keep that passion alive.
I love the look of the bone white Camaro on Copper wheels. I am digging the cinematic camera effects, like the tilt/shift lens and the Toy Model Car effect. Nice transitions as well.
This “LT5 69” Camaro is gorgeous! Even though I’m a 3rd-6th Gen Camaro Fan/Owner, this 69 reminds me of why I’ll always be a Camaro fan for life. Appreciate the work and content! 👍👌
They’ve got the right sound out of that LT5. It sounds very close to an old school engine, which is a complement to whomever did the exhaust. That’s the sound you want in a vintage car. I also really like the exterior mods. They didn’t go too far. Just a few things that are nice without effecting the car’s identity. That would be my choice too.
Shawn you and the AutotopiaLA crew video's just keep getting better and better still loving your content all the way from down under in Australia always looking forward to the next. thank you
Beautiful car with very nice simple but classy touches. The hood looks like a 69/70 Cutlass or a Firebird, the lower front grill reminds me of the 69/70's Challenger. I would just lower the stance 1 inch in the front and 2 in the rear. Love the dual exhaust and rear diffuser.
Coming from someone who's not a huge fan of "restomods" I appreciate how tasteful this car was done with regards to the perfect stance and the fact that the body is still mostly factory looking and not overdone. And yes, depending on the level of the build, I think it's completely asinine to cut up a real car like a '63 Corvette if you're going to go wild and all you're really going to use is the VIN#.
Dont understand the whole restomod term. Its the way most built these cars...handle stop and perform better than they did. Guess its from the gen that has to "label" everything
This is the Camaro that GM should have produced. These cars are jewels but the best part of this is Shaun....he's the "Crown Jewel". Love to see the camera men/women getting some love.
Banging intro and loved the different camera angles and feel to this vid. This car is gorgeous and gnarly at the same time, in a refined way. The interior design and color is top notch - very classy and tasteful. Spot on build. Thanks for the video.
Great video. I really enjoyed it. That Camaro is just bad ass. Love how it looks and sounds like a beast. I own a Camaro so this was a good video for me. Thanks for all the great videos.
Brother I enjoy y'all talking about the build and builder. The cinema stuff is just a major plus. I like the information on builds you wouldn't really know or get from any other content provider
Yeah y'all are doing great with the cinema photography and I personally prefer the walk-around and discussion over just jumping into it and driving but that's just me maybe.
First of all, Great car and great presentation of the build... I was hoping to see the car in the air to get a view of the exhaust work and undercarriage....
That’s the coolest looking interior I think I’ve ever seen , in a muscle car definitely top shelf right there, awesome car ,really bad ass, awesome content as always Shawn , look forward to every new video 👍🏼keep it up bro
Great built! Firstly, The Exorcist and The Resurrection built by Hennessy. Secondly, The Apocalypse built by Gio 😮, what's Will be next? Armageddon 🤔, just an observation!!!
I want to share with you that I have my lap top hooked up to an amazing sound system with a mixer board. Very first thing I identified was the sound. Maybe I'm wrong, still the sound you are applying adds to the new format. Thank You. Really.
A few years back I went to an auto show living in Green Bay at the time and I actually ran into the guys from Tony's hotrod shop and soon as I heard Antigo,WI smh flashback of the business card I got from them. It was cool to chop it up with them and it all started with one of the customers having a 50's Chevy with a viper motor and corvette frame! Someone correct me if I'm wrong lol its been a minute.
I’m in the same camp regarding his 63 Split Window Vette. For me, if it’s a rare spec, low miles, mint condition example that’s 100% original with no accidents causing replacement parts, leave it alone. If it’s not that unicorn situation, resto mod is not an issue at all. More fun, far safer, and just a better all around driving experience. You get to create the cool factor in every way. 👍🏻😎👍🏻
Meh...most those cars are all stock restos they are nice but all look the same after while. Love seeing them modded with the large flares rowdy solid lifter engines etc.
I've restored Mid-Year Corvettes and many other GM muscle cars since 1983. I'm a huge Chevy fan, but regardless the make, it's awesome to see how many of the cars featured on this show are manuals. Goes to show, real car guys know what they're doing.
Really like the fact that the owner made unique choices instead of following trend, and ultimately created memories for his family. Congrats…. Don’t ever sell it!
@@DigitalPrezLLC Car came out great, love that engine that is the crown jewel mm builds some killer stuff. Owned a 90 Z LT5, would make a good starter engine for yours lol Upholstery is stylish, who did it?
Awesome video, love to see a classic Camaro being enjoyed by a family and really driven. Tastefully done with personal touches. Love the ambitions of a Camaro and a vette but where’s the Chevelle love 😂. Love seeing someone making their dreams come true.

@@gordocarbo absolutely, previously to get 1000hp no warranty and engine needed tear down on the regular. We’ve come a long way.
Nice seeing a car being enjoyed. Instead of an owner acting excited and then it rolls across barrett jackson 2 months later.
Love that he drives it with his family regularly
Have a bit of contempt for those auction houses, helping drive the hobby into hands of investors, not guys that would actually drive them
@@AutotopiaLA Dig the accent stripes, that bit of red really sets it off
Always wondered what cutting into the front of the cowl hood could look like. Great opp for cold air even for a carb
ROLLING ART,the amount of work ,amazing
God bless this man for involving his boys!! That's what keeps our beloved hobby alive!! Very cool car, and as usual, love ya Shawn. Thanks for the great videos!!
Thank you and I’m with you on passing the hobby down to the kids!
Such a cool build and shot awesome
Thanks and I agree on it being a cool Camaro. Especially that LT5
I don't see a problem with the single stripe, as long as it looks good and it's what the owner is happy with more power to ya.
The red really gets rid of the bland, white/black paint, it works
Shawn and crew 499k subs...I can smell 500k in the air. Really appreciate all the quality videos you guys post week after week after week. 500k accolades is so well deserved. Take a bow gentlemen as we press on to 1M !
Thanks brother! I appreciate hearing that and 1 million is the target for now
@@AutotopiaLA And you got there with out bringing in T n A to get there.
Not that Id complain or anything lol
I noticed the better production before you said it. The sky is the limit there.
Thank you! It’s gonna keep getting better I promise
Love the one side stripes.. 👍👍
The first 50 seconds were a better trailer than many movie trailers, loved it! :)
Thanks for noticing the shooting and editing upgrade. Same team just pushing harder
Nothing like modernized muscle done right 🤤🔥 and the wheels matching the interior is insanely beautiful.
Totally agree
Much respect to Gio for building such a beautiful machine and awesome shoot as well 💯
Thanks and I totally agree…love when people build their dream car
Definitely been noticing the changes. A top tier channel in my opinion.
Thank you for saying that. Me and the crew are pushing hard
The interior has that "old money" luxury feel. Great work!
Gio, great ride my man. It's tasteful, has all the trimmings.....Good to hear you plan on letting your kids drive/inherit them. Keep that passion alive.
So cool they’ll stay in the family
Its the only way they could own one these days. Hope they appreciate it and not sell it off soon as they could .See that online a lot.
I love the look of the bone white Camaro on Copper wheels. I am digging the cinematic camera effects, like the tilt/shift lens and the Toy Model Car effect. Nice transitions as well.
Thanks for the comments on the work of our crew and agreed on this being a really cool Camaro
This “LT5 69” Camaro is gorgeous!
Even though I’m a 3rd-6th Gen Camaro Fan/Owner, this 69 reminds me of why I’ll always be a Camaro fan for life.
Appreciate the work and content!
👍👌
Something to like about all the gens, even the crappy smog yrs
Another bad ass wicked car !! Thanks to everyone for another legendary episode..💯🔥
Thanks and I agree…badass car!
Beautiful détails ans craftsmanship.
Just the way that thing sounds..🏁💪🏼
And I'll say it again. The new video angles are SPOT on ! well done yall.
Thank you!
Camaro owner has crystal clear voice. He would do voice overs, narrator and audiobook stuff.
Love the new edits and views, great enhancement to the show!
Thanks for noticing. The team is working harder than ever to make things better than ever

This thing is so clean! I really really like how the rear was done it’s awesome. The filming style keeps getting better and better great video Shawn!
Great intro. Amazing how people with passion can transform bare body into these kind of automotive art. Great episode I love Camaro's. Greetings

You mean gaudy?
Shawn you are the man !!! Love you're show .❤ badass 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏁🏁🏁🤓
Thank you!
Nice car! And the owner talks about kids and the wife is just so refreshing to hear!!

Thanks for the comment brother. The team is pushing harder than ever to make our content better than ever and I dig this Camaro too!
The wheels are perfect 👍
Not sure if I have ever seen someone incorporate the header panel into the hood, looks good! Sweet ride!
Incredible build! Basically my classic dream build, but id do it with a 70 split bumper.
Beautiful 69 Camaro love the interior❤😁🤙
Really excellent aesthetics and stance 💯👏🤤That hood intake is beyond sick!!
Love that hood treatment!
Super nice! Love the whole car, the stripe treatment...everything
Same here
Great Camaro, camera, and editing work.
Thanks on 2 out of 3 and that Camaro is seriously cool
Love those exhaust notes!
Great video. I really enjoyed it. That Camaro is just bad ass. Love how it looks and sounds like a beast. I own a Camaro so this was a good video for me. Thanks for all the great videos.
Brother I enjoy y'all talking about the build and builder. The cinema stuff is just a major plus. I like the information on builds you wouldn't really know or get from any other content provider
Thank you. We try showing what makes the build what it is
I'm not a fan of the woodgrain, but everything else is on point. It's a beast. I love the camera work and editing.
Killer intro Shawn 👌🏼
I hang out each week to watch Autotopia LA videos. Just love seeing this channel grow. Tuff Camaro btw 😎
Thank you! The team is killing it and pushing harder than ever
I like original matching numbers Muscle Cars… but this sort of build is growing on me FAST😎
You know I’m all about the restomods but will always have appreciation for original cars
Your videos are just getting better, much better 🔝👌🙏
Thank you! The team is pushing hard!
Beautiful Camaro there Gio!
That's a spicy meatball 🤌🤌 killer ride
Really like the wheels and the color.
Yeah y'all are doing great with the cinema photography and I personally prefer the walk-around and discussion over just jumping into it and driving but that's just me maybe.
I like blending both. The walk around won’t go away but trying to up the quality of shots and editing
@@AutotopiaLA sounds good
Like the fact he isnt talking over the sound of the car like too many channels do. Its irritating
First of all, Great car and great presentation of the build... I was hoping to see the car in the air to get a view of the exhaust work and undercarriage....
That’s the coolest looking interior I think I’ve ever seen , in a muscle car definitely top shelf right there, awesome car ,really bad ass, awesome content as always Shawn , look forward to every new video 👍🏼keep it up bro
Thank you! Such a cool build he did
Major props for the LT5 "Upgrayedd" over the obligitory LT4. 👍
Seriously cool engine choice
Like the different styling ques
Has a bit of Ring Brothers, but not way over the top
Very cool
Lots of cool touches on this build
You guys get a new production team or something? Cause this sh*t is FIIIREEEE 🔥 🔥
lol! Same team just pushing it harder than ever to make our content better than ever. Our team kills it!
That interior is absofreakinlutely gorgeous!
Great built!
Firstly, The Exorcist and The Resurrection built by Hennessy.
Secondly, The Apocalypse built by Gio 😮, what's Will be next? Armageddon 🤔, just an observation!!!
Following u from the early days and seeing your numbers climb makes me so happy! All the best always, from Melbourne!
Thank you! Always shooting for the moon!
Nice color coordination
Great job on this video, love the new longer format and great having you guys back at your other car storage facility!!
Thanks Dean! Good being back
I want to share with you that I have my lap top hooked up to an amazing sound system with a mixer board. Very first thing I identified was the sound. Maybe I'm wrong, still the sound you are applying adds to the new format. Thank You. Really.
Nice Camaro! I have been a fan for as long I can remember. Love that interior!
Great introduction damn !!! 🎉
Our team killing it!
Killer car for sure, loving that interior and I do dig the new look of the videos. Keep up the great work.
Thanks and I agree on this being a badass Camaro!
That was an epic opening!
So this is what Blank Slate turned into! Nice car it's come a long way.
Cool to see where he took this
I hit a thumbs up before the video even loads lol. That’s the confidence I have in this channel!!
The intro is amazing.. did you get a new video editor guy 🔥.. 5 stars 🌟 to that
Same team just pushing harder than ever to make things better than ever. Thanks for noticing!
Wow shawn....... Looks badass .... Greetings from india 🇮🇳🤠🤠🤩🤩🙌🏻🤘🏻
Thank you! Cool car for sure
Love that hood!
Love the LT engines, I wish more companies supported direct injection
Hopefully one day I can be on this channel haha
Hopefully we get to see your build

Right?! Our editor is killing it and all the added new shots…glad you noticed
Loving the style
I just love the old cars. I don't care about matching numbers I don't collect cars .Restore mod love allday .
Same here
I also love that color and design of the interior. 😊.
Keep doing what you are doing . Amazing videos!!

Intro was fire loved it
I love everything he did to this car
Que bom gostoo cara teve na montagem desse carro, incrível!
I dig the RS grill!
A 69 Camaro has a lot going for it to start with, then add some creativity and the results make a lot of people wanting one.
