Custom ‘67 Camaro Making Over 600 hp Built in NASCAR Country USA

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Vinny is one of those guys you meet and instantly you know you've met a lifelong friend. He's got some really amazing cars in his garage but we've started with his 1967 Chevy Camaro powered by a built LS7 making a little over 600 hp not only because it's a badass build but because it has a great story that ties into Vinny's life in Mooresville, NC so sit back and enjoy the ride...

    '67 Camaros are the best year. People usually just go to the '69 because of the refinement in design. But the '67 has much better lines, the grill, the rear lights, the wind wing, the front quarter panels brows that rise higher that reflect the Corvette front quarter panels.

    Vinny is an outstanding guy. A true story of ‘rags to riches’. A man who woke up and decided to do something about his life, went out there and did it. Not only that, but turned an old community into a vibrant one. Turned MILL ONE into a beautiful living space for the community. That’s what I call giving back. Now Vinny is enjoying the fruits of his labor. That is a true American 🇺🇸 dream story. Much love and respect brother. Ralph Lazio Los Angeles California

    I'm sorry but that glass looks like the flush fit you can buy new to fit the original opening. Judging by how thin the A pilar is, if it was metalworked to fit factory glass, it'd be thicker. I'm sure some metalwork was done to make the new glass 100% nice. Flush fit glasss can be bought for a lot of vehicles.

    I'm not into the flush fit windows either. It takes away from the natural look that is the design of the car. It doesn't make the car look better or make it modern looking. It doesn't look right. If someone wants to change the fit and finish of the glass of a car, the only modern glass that I like is the large side rear windows of the 05 - 09 Dodge Magnum Wagon which is frameless and sits away from the window frame as if it is floating bracketless, invisible mounting hardware. It is a clean, timeless way of mounting a non moving window. Check one out closely. Most people don't even notice that detail.

  • @ChasingPerfection

    @@13_13k I agree with the flush fit. The car to me has to be radically built top to bottom for flush glass. For it to be cohesive to the build. As for the magnum glass. To me looks like any suv quarter window. The glass has studs and is held in with a butyl tape or urethane. If butyl tape, it bolts to the quarter panel which has holes for the studs of the glass to go through and flange nuts to hold in place. I did collision work for 7 years before I spent the last decade at a high end restoration shop.

    @@ChasingPerfection --- thanks for explaining how the Magnum window is mounted. Also for having the same opinion about when flush mount glass does look good, I wouldn't say it ever looks appropriate on an older car, in my opinion, but it has a place in custom car builds in the same way as door handles. Sometimes door handles can be removed to get that cleaner look, without the "zit" on the smooth body breaking the lines continuation but, other times I think a door handle that's been from the factory set into a dish out as part of the body line, rather than just set on the door skin as an after thought, gives the small detail and touch of chrome to tie in the chrome trim of the window frames if a car has them. Kinda like wind wings on car doors. I like wind wing windows, I also like small side rear windows that roll down but hate the doors with window frames. That was my transition back to windows hahahaha I didn't know that butyle was used for the Magnum glass mounting. I never looked into it and thank God haven't had to replace mine. I kinda assumed they had a stud of some kind imbedded in the glass while it was still in a hot soft stage of the process of making the windows. Butyle is a great invention.

They can be seen all over on the roads,because people around here actually drive their cars vs. putting them in a building and not letting anyone else enjoy the sight of them. I saw in the comments people talking about how cool and laid back Vinny is......welcome to the South and NC in particular!!
