  • In this episode, we travel to South Carolina to rescue a forgotten and abandoned 1969 Chevy Camaro. Chevrolet's answer to the Ford Mustang, the first generation Camaro has become one of the most sought after pony cars in the world, and now we have one! After being neglected for years, and changing owners several times we decide to give it a real home. It's bad folks, real bad, and its time someone gave this iconic muscle car the love and attention it deserves.
    Follow along with ‪@hammersgarage‬ as we begin this restoration journey!

    A friend of mine sold a 69' camaro that resembled the same one( but it's not it) to a gentleman in waycross,ga some years ago and he forgot the guy's name and contact info. I was thinking maybe this gentleman may possibly know the whereabouts of my friends 69' camaro in Waycross, ga. By the way your project looks promising. Happy building!

    Hey internet cowboy you pointed to the totally wrong area for the vacuum line penetrations in the firewall. You don't even know the important points to show on film. I have obsessed and owned 31 Camaros since 1979 in high school. It's all i know, my first love. I left all the other cars to everyone else. Now I can not even afford a project because of stupid people like this who are in it solely for the money and not the love. I can't help but think about all the people you fked over in life to get to where you are today. Karma is an unavoidable beatch though.

    I'd call it "mine". 🤣Looks like a fun project even with the floor pan sheetmetal work you have ahead of you. The only problem I see will be living up to everyone else's expectations. People get weird around these more popular cars when they see other folks doing things they don't "approve" of.
    Brings back memories of my first project that I hauled home from central Georgia near Forsyth. The trip and the comments from folks who saw it on the trailer made the effort worth it.
