I love how you include your boys when you work, making great memories for them!
I love that you include little snippets of family life... I think a lot of people might take for granted or don't see what it takes trying to do something like this when you also have a family.
Loving how this is starting already 😊😮
You should try some tow mirrors on the silverado 🫡
the ole lab rolling through was priceless... if you ever had that one of a kind bird dog you know... that girl that dug up them birds
fitment looks perfect. leave it low looks so good !
Maybe you can use part of either old panel to cut and match your missing puzzle piece? That way you won’t have to worry too much about color matching. Anyways, just a thought my braddah🤙🤙🤙
Awesome stuff Chad. Best part is getting to work with your pops and kids!
Congratulations on the permit for your dream shop I can’t wait to see it and follow along with the progress and process
Starting off bud love your channel second I am die hard Chevy and it’s nice to finally see another die hard Chevy channel.I’ve been wanting to comment for a while now but I was waiting on to see if you was going to buy something besides a Chevy and so far your true to the brand. I know I’m a nobody and it probably doesn’t matter to you but thank you buddy for staying true to something you believe in and I’m not bashing on any other manufacturers at all it’s just I’ve had so much reliability with Chevrolet and just so much you can do with them at the cheapest price. You can’t go wrong but enough of me ranting thank you bud for the entertainment and staying true to what you believe in.
I like the lift you’re using to get the car up off the ground. Makes it 10x’s easier!
@quickjacks for the win
Really makes me miss my C5
You and your dad did a good job dude. Car looks great. Enjoy in good health. Peace.
congrats on the permit for your shop my braddah. I love your channel, and will continue to tune in every time🤙🏿
So glad you did this! Wide body C5's are my favorite!
That CF...dude! I just got a bunch of CF parts for my Ducati...making a video. Might be the first vid on the YT channel I'm creating. Great job man!
Wow my braddah I never knew u lived in kahuku I used to live right up the road at Huehu place now I live hauula but one it’s nice to see a braddah from Hawaii getting there dreams to come true even better a braddah from our town 🤙🏾🤙🏾much aloha
Great job on the vette! Those blue calipers look Fantastic!! The carbon fiber rears look amazing too!!
That front sway bar looked very close to that control arm
Looking good. I hate that the aftermarket companies have zero QC. That fitment would drive me crazy. There’s really no reason for it , of they used your model year for T&E before mass production. I can understand minor differences from OEM. But those door gaps are huge
Awesome build video!!!!!
That workers comp claim for the camera man must have cost you a pretty penny. 😂 love how I can watch my favorite Lone Star Hawaiian make his Bow Tie garage even cooler.
She looks sick! Nice work!
Honestly I liked the tape
Awesome👍🏽…Aloha 🤙🏽
Great job
Heck yeah!
Great video. Corvette looks good 🤙🏼
Gorgeous car!
Dude
Hmmm, notifications bell was turned off !!!
What up you tube!!!
Anyways.
You got it bro!!! Looking sweet!!!
Just happened to see this video on the C-5. That’s a lot of work that you put into it but it came out great. You might want to put an oil catch can on the C-5 also. I am putting one on mine after removing the throttlebody and seeing all the oil laying inside the intake manifold.
Great work on the Vette. Seeing your Dad handle that course in her was awesome and it’s great to see a car come back from the dead. The plans for the shop looked nice and I can’t wait for that content.
if your bearings look anything like the outside of that hub, it is time fo swap them out...
Love the it!
Congratulations on the permit!!! Look forward to see it come along
this vid made me get a C5 :-)
You should cut a piece from the already broken fender to fill in the gap
Change those front amber bulbs to white
Amazing job congratulations. Would you happen to have the link for the spacers you used to match the widebody kit
🤣🤣 "sorry camara"
Τhe best corvette ❤
Great job! Are those stock c6 z06 size tires on the rims. Killer channel
100% Stock C6 Z06 specs on the wheels and tires. 1" spacer in the rear to go flush with the fenders.
I’m in DFW & have a sgm corvette lol
🔥🔥🔥
Beautiful brake job!!
Does the Corvette get a paint job or wrap? Someday? Fenders stay the carbon fiber?
What lift is that you use under the vette? I need one of them for my ZL1, looks perfect for the job! Love the pole barn by the way!
Omg ❤❤❤ that’s a sexy corvette
haha Im litterally flying out to texas tomorrow to drive a c5 back to cali! 1500 miles
Enjoy the drive! 🤙🏽🤙🏽
How was the fitment of the c6 z06 wheels on with the stock fenders? They’re 325’s right?
Where did u get the z06 brakes from?
What exhaust are you running here? On vette?
What would it compete in? Isn’t it basically a stock motor?
maybe youve mentioned it in a previous video, what model quickjack do you have?
Tag on the jacks say “BL-5000SLX” hopefully that helps!
I wouldn’t mind buying the tires from you.
Let us know if those wheels/tires are for sale. I’m local to DFW and would come get them
Great minds think alike 😉
YESS!!!! Shop build content!!!!!!!!
I didn’t see you remove the stock leaf springs. Was it difficult? Do the coil overs really make that much difference? Did the upper shock mounts have to be reinforced to support the front end weight? Cool build!
Leaf springs (front and rear) weren’t too bad getting off. Coil overs are night and day. Especially being able to adjust. No reinforcement needed 🤙🏽
@@LonestarHawaiian I have an 03 Z06. You replaced the stock base model springs. I wonder how much different the coil overs would be compared to the stiffer Z06 springs? The Z06 handles great, so I wonder if the coil overs would be worth the money? I bet the brakes would be!

this was a cool Dad Son session
Who the hell flys across the country for a C5 lol
It's not about the flight there.
But about the drive home.
I know you're in Texas. Im in Texas. How is your light blue shirt not dark blue from being drenched in sweat. Texas has already been extremely hot.
Awesome
