After flying from Minnesota to Pennsylvania to revival a 1969 Chevrolet Chevelle (Episode 82), I ended up in Kentucky. I scratched my easy flight back home and took on this 3rd gen 1984 Chevrolet Camaro that had been previously parked for 27 years. Sitting was pretty hard on it, the entire front end was seized and took a lot of work to get it into the garage to start tearing it down. Think I’ll make it 800 miles home? Watch and find out!

  1. Had that same year and color camero with the same V6 except mine had a 5 speed Manual and a k&network air thingy on the fuel make it happened. Gotta say you make me laugh and can brighten most anyone's day

  2. Watching this again in 2024 forgotten how much that Camaro sounds like my mom's 89 Corsica. Crazy they put the same engine in both. Brings back memories.

  3. I struggled for a few minutes to understand why this family would feel attachment to a V6 camero but then I remembered that I have my Dad's 1966 mustang in the garage. Yep, I get it.

  4. Dude, the loose caps are basically not necessary. They are chrome caps to make wheels look nice. They ain’t gonna hold them down and you will be standing.

  5. I’d say do the minimum and put it in the hands of a student. Maybe Make it through high school or college. Just add to the history of the old jewel.

  6. i saw The Cult last year at Aftershock with my kids. Great show, they are on tour right now. Must not be doing too well as they are stopping in Redding, CA.

  7. Paraphrasing here but, Swedish goat just quenches on ya. Dying laughing over here had to call my wife and tell her. She didn’t care but who gives a rip that was rich!!!

  8. I had a 1986 , V6 in this same color/ interior configurationage. Only reason I got rid of it was because the Mass Airflow Sensor stopped doing things that that is supposed to do. Everyone told me it was too expensive and not worth the hassle or money. (I was 22 years old with a small daughter person. Didn’t have MAF money. Only had feed the child money.)

  9. Hey Derick, I know you’re a big O’Reillys fan have you ever looked up part number 121G I’m sure you have. since you have an in with O’Reillys can you find out when they may have it back in stock?

  10. When I was 16 my mom and brother bought this rust bucket Silverado S10. Anyway….. Me and my brother used to go to a lot of concerts. We were on our way to one the lights started going dim and so was the dash board. We thought we wasn't going to our concert. Well my brother being pissed off took the jack handle bar a started hitting the alternator with it. ALL of a sudden the lights started working full and the dash lit back up….. We owned that truck for a few more years and NEVER HAD TO CHANGE THE ALTERNATOR…
    LMMFAO…. THOUGHT I'd tell that story to get a laugh or 2. BUT it's 💯% a true story…. And we did it the VGG WAY……

  11. The V8 of this was my first. And third. I also had the 85. That would have been 83-98. I’m now 48 and would do it all over again with these gigantic pos

  12. I’m so proud of you Derrick! You’ve come so far. You’re a success you’ve a beautiful family. You’re doing it. Keep it up. Do what makes you happy. Don’t worry about the viewers we’re here for the ride. Just keep being you. I’ll keep watching… and rewatching.

  13. Sunday best means those Hawaiian shairt are close-outs, two for $5.00 at the local Rush Truck stop center right across the street from the hotel. I'll be dipped, I have two just like the one he's wearing!

  14. I keep searching for unseen videos & found this one. The things you say should be in a book & cataloged. Funny man & an excellent mechanic. I have yet to see a problem you can't solve. Best channel of it's kind.

  15. I don't know how how much money you have in the little Camaro however it gets to be the to the point of no return as far as the money goes. But it sure so you get to make the decision. If it was me I would unload it and save my money for something that I know I'm going to keep a lot longer and it has less repairs to do . Art FOMOCO🇺🇸🚔

  16. that 2.8 v6 is the gutless engine of the century. that throttle body is almost indestructible. we have had 2 of those engines in the s 10 truck. ran the darn wheels off them.

  17. Derek i'm sure she's gone by now, but it really should've been given to a struggling family that needed a good little work car or a youngster for college, my oldest son bought a sq body Chevy and went through it, we bought a long block 350 from o' Riley's transferred the the parts that didn't come with it, put a 299.00 paint job, 5 new tires, my son owns 2 transmission shops, so the only thing it cost was, our labor, when the other business got word, they themselves wanted to help to so now every year we do the same thing, this year it's looking good because of the Floods. My wife and i think what you and Jessica are doing a great service, thank you guys very much.
