Thing sound even better in person. Cannot wait to see it again. PS- John, you looked like a kid in a candy shop driving the car to the exhaust shop. Congrats!
@Pogost1ck Cool. I have an old 50mm 1.8 film one and the results are like these. The other lenses I own (albeit only cheap ones) make the slightly newer kind of background blur.
19×11-inch pairing in the front and a very impressive (and wide) 19×14-inch pair in the rear. The wheels are wrapped with 275s in the front and super-wide 345s in the rear.
A friend of mine who has a similar one of these had to make a custom gas tank in order to get fat tires like those to fit. He has the tubing connected right where that box is so I assume it has something to do with gas as well.
Loving the camera qual. Looks like ur playing a game in high Def. Awesome wheels with awesome rubber for an awesome car.. love the knuckle duster on the back too. well done. :D
@wvmule Not really a bucket. The owner of the Camaro is the one that did the artwork on the side, and despite its age, its extremly fast. And I'm not talking "fast for a rice burner fast" Its actually down right dangerous. Right at, if not just over a 10-1 power to weight ratio.
just said it WAS a factory 396. numbers matching to the car I DONT KNOW what it's been bored to. and yeah its supercharged. from what I know the only thing left on it that was stock parts is the block itself. I'll try to get a hold of him and see exactly what has been done to it.
That Camaro is AMAZING! That spray painted rice burner is in the video is too funny. My wife and I laughed our asses off at that bucket. However, I still can't get over how bad ass that Camaro is. WOW!
doing something similar to my friends cousins 68 Chevelle. he tweaked the hell out of the frame a while back (1100 horses and 980 pounds of torque will do that when you forget to reinforce the stock frame). Fabricating a custom tube frame and using Corvette suspension parts. gonna put the old motor back in it and put the monster back in the Boat we took it out of LOL. 750 + horsepower 396 will do just fine
haven't found in comments yet: what size tires front and rear are you fitting? I've tubbed my '67 but just to the original rear subframe rails and moved the shocks inboard of the frame. So i picked up a couple inches and will use wheels with large back space. I'm thinking some 315/35r20's or if I am going to drive a little more something like 295/45r18's. In the front I don't think I need/want to go quite as wide as you, but looking into using a full front clip with power rack and pinion (something like maybe Chris Alston Chassis Works?) I'm hoping to use 8-inch wide rim up from with 245/45r18's or 255/40r18's. Maybe even a 50 series on a 17 inch wheel for front. Think these sizes will work without narrowing that rear frame and tubbing further? (I use a Chrysler 83/4 rear with multi-leaf springs from a B-body---budget and effective so I don't particularly want to get too crazy in costs or fabrication just to squeeze another inch or two of tread.)
was a factory 396 I dont know what its bee bored to or any of the specifics all I know is the car runs 9's on 15 inch slicks and thats if it doesnt hook up
@wvmule Rice burner? Thats a damn Datsun 210 man. Be respectful. No need for derogatory language about a car you don't know. Those guys build EPIC cars and that Datsun is one of them.
GREAT looking car! What are the door handles from (the outside ones)? I want to do something like that on mine. Since I lost my left thumb I really need to change the style of handle.
This years stock engine was a 350~LS1, the LS7 is essentially a fuel injected 427 with vvt etc that is found on a newer engine, For instance people could get the 427(old school) on their camaro via copo or yenko but the value in these differ greatly vs this streetfighter LS7 still this cars beast
Now that's how back tires should to look.
Steven Lynch except they are paper thin
It's fine. I didn't want to see you do anything cool anyway.
+1
Welding hood guys. Eyes are expensive!
Thing sound even better in person. Cannot wait to see it again.

Modern engineering in a classic package! My inner mullet just jumped for joy. I love it.

Man, those tires are monsters! Bet they really hook up. Love to see some 0-60/quarter mile times.
I bought a white '67 Camaro SS with very low mileage in 1971, for $1750.00. And oh, how I wish I had it back! Those things were fast as lightning.
nothing better than going out and seeing the car you always wanted everyday jus sitting there waiting for you to drive it
I don't desire a car that strong, but for sure I desire a car that beautiful!!
Very nice job!!
@TheGreatPumpkin379 that was an '83 Datsun 210 with a rotary.
this is one of the best looking and sounding 67's ive seen
love your sense of humor. Keep turning those wrenches on anything and everything!
Possibly not mini tubbed, I think most of the width is extending away from the axle from the lip of the wheels.
Watching this car on tv right now, had to bless & big yu up bro😎
try watching it again with the speakers and monitor turned on.
@stoone113
I just purchased a paint off ebay, its call hot rod black. Stage one though, not primer. Fade resistance too. man do I love this car!

@crusTodd Yes, it was 12A in the vid and is now 13B FI.
I love the brass knuckle decal on the back! Badass!
i think straight pipes running to the back would finish off the look as well as the sound
that near tucker ga right
Brand new tires with stickers on them ... they will suffer!
That Camaro is AMAZING! That spray painted rice burner is in the video is too funny. My wife and I laughed our asses off at that bucket. However, I still can't get over how bad ass that Camaro is. WOW!
Beautiful colors and wheel set up . Why does it sound like a Honda?
I've never loved a Camaro until this moment
bad ass camaro, but whats all the switches for on the dash???
Still own it?
@demariojason That was Jimmy Carter blvd.
what camera was this shot with
By far, the sickest Camaro i've ever seen.
are these the same guys who built the white 68 charger with the red tail stripes?
doing something similar to my friends cousins 68 Chevelle. he tweaked the hell out of the frame a while back (1100 horses and 980 pounds of torque will do that when you forget to reinforce the stock frame).

@360mmspider How? Because it's rotary swapped and loud? Because it's got their shops name painted on it?
For some reason I'm thinking this was filmed with an old school (maybe film) lens. The bokeh is just different those days. I could be wrong though.
@stoone113
Yes, its flat black and looks exactly like this.
@theTechnoclast Modern equivalents do it quite well too, and this looks like a simulated 'macro' view, with VERY little depth of field.
@bmays005 The brakes wouldn't fit. I bought a set of 14" rotor brakes for my '67 Camaro, and they warned me that I'll have to run at least 18" wheels.
Woao nice 67 men wich is the wheel measurement ? wich brand and size of wheels ? also tires?
do you have to worry about exhaust temperature heating up the tires and causing them to pop at all?
@AlvaBeatz Thanks, I used a 5DMKii
that's it? somebody's afraid to drive.
That maro belongs in a ford fans nightmare...
Absolutely sick looking maro. Love it.
97sswcubes 78 there is no such thing as a ford fan. Only those who want a cheap, worthless, disposable "car"
looks like a giant matchbox car. like it just the way it is. nice work. one of my dream cars for sure
@puregroove
what kind of wheels are those they look amazing?
Left us blueballs. I need to see that thing launch!

@ViRtUaLheretic It's got an LS7. Maybe the owner will chime in he rest of the details.
didn't look like he had brake lights functioning on the camaro towards the end
@puregroove awesome car. what camera was used for filming this video?
obviously the car wasn't finished in the video so it was probably just a mock up for the exhaust
that thing is a monster man. What type of wheel and tire package is that?
what size wheel do got on there?
and did u have to tub it out? very nice camaro by the way.
more videos of this car?
Very nice! Any chance the 'ol camaro is for sale?
those rear wheel seem to be wide...
really wide...
@puregroove Great car, tell me what the wheels are please?
Isnt the position of the exhaust a bit dangerous?
Wt happens if you get backfire?
Forget the camaro, what was that car behind it at the light??
@wvmule Rice burner? Thats a damn Datsun 210 man. Be respectful. No need for derogatory language about a car you don't know. Those guys build EPIC cars and that Datsun is one of them.
that would make a damn good picure, can you tell me what lens or filter did you use on that shot? 1:48
one of the coolest looking camaros ever!
GREAT looking car! What are the door handles from (the outside ones)? I want to do something like that on mine. Since I lost my left thumb I really need to change the style of handle.
I'm trying to figure out what size tire is in the rear ?
hot damn, got any infos on the car?
ATL!! YEAH!!! Man this camaro is awesome and the camera is superb! and was that Memorial Dr.?? or Moreland??
Bad ass car but sounds to quite is it a small block or is the video sound off
@jpocalypse
I would say it is a Volkswagen Derby ;)
This years stock engine was a 350~LS1, the LS7 is essentially a fuel injected 427 with vvt etc that is found on a newer engine, For instance people could get the 427(old school) on their camaro via copo or yenko but the value in these differ greatly vs this streetfighter LS7 still this cars beast
What size are the tires and rims on the back, and what type of rims are they ?
Perfect mix of retro style and modern performance.
Damn that fuel cell looks huge! 22 gallon?
Car looks sick! If paint is considered I'd go flat black to keep the primered look.
@puregroove What kind of wheels are those? And what's the deminsions on them?
@SpaceCookie69 I used a Canon 5D MKII
What's the ATL box hanging out the arse end doin ?
Every time I look at this car I regret selling my Charger instead of giving it this treatment... Man, the style is so PERFECT for old muscle.
Damn I love this build!
still have this car?!
@milkthecow2200 haha, that's at Datsun 210 with a rotary in it; one of our other shop cars.
Was this on stancenation?
The stance on that car is SICK !!! ---
I like the rims and the stance of that camaro!
those rear width tires are fucking awesome rims look good too . engine doesnt sound beasty enough lol
most badass camero or car that I've ever seen!!
Who put the dent on the passenger side door?
what camera did you use this is clear ass hell?
