I try to not waste time and try to get to the facts. Got very tired of watching long-winded videos of dudes rambling on about nothing. So I decided to make a few quick and short videos explaining the finer details of building Gen V Restomods. For more information and details please visit www.automobileman.com and look for the Gen V Installation guide.
I love your videos. I’d love to see you build the ultimate Chevrolet Caprice Police Unmarked Vehicle with lights and sirens but, in a Sports Edition. You can name the car “Lightning.” A 1969 Dodge Dart Touring Edition. 3 twin 1969 Super Bees Transformer Edition. A 1969 Chevrolet Impala with a 2021 style to it. Or a 2010 Dodge Ram 1500 assault vehicle. You can name it “Mountaineer Edition” the ultimate assault truck. A 1989 Dodge Daytona Racing Edition. A 1989 Daytona Bug Out Edition. A 1976 Dodge Ram Cattle Edition. I just love watching you guys build sport looking heavy duty vehicles.
The info about the axle length was more than worth the view. Your voice sounds super familiar. Have you ever done some financial, Elliot Wave forecasting?
You use a swap harness, which has the VATS removed along with the 2nd O2 sensor. If you use Dakota Digital gauges the only think left for a conventional fuse panel is heat, lights and AC. The AC portion is usually Vintage Air.
You add one frame mount, then drop the body on. In the case of alignment or fitment issues, we use the Roadster Shop frame as a frame table. All the front sheetmetal use to be aligned to the front clip, but that is eliminated and consequently makes fitting all the front pieces easier. Wouldn't build it any other way, now that I've done it twice.
Gen 1 Camaros were not built to a very high standard, that's why there are big squishy pieces of seam sealer in all the original bodies. Look at the previous build (silver/black) car that used the new sheetmetal from 'Real Deal Steel', built to a much higher standard of manufacturing featuring twice the amount of spot welds and no seam sealer.
I wish I had your knowledge
Very informative,thank you
Sweet build. Love the videos. Keep them coming and thanks for posting.
More to come!
Really appreciate the detail in your videos! thanks!

I wanna see how that rear end articulates. I feel like with those type of rod ends, even with rubber bushings it would bind with little articulation.

Nope, just Hot Rods. Make sure you check out the rest of the channel, you may find some more interesting tidbits.
So those LS engines come with the correct write harness, like do you have to do any adaptations for it to work on this older car

do you have to modify the 68-69 camaro shell before installation?
