Scotty Kilmer. Love your videos. Thank you for sharing. I'm currently trying to sell my mom's 1978 CameroLT-250 She is the original owner. No rust and has never left AZ. 103k original miles and no accidents. It was her daily driver.

Johnathan Milligan sometimes you just have to pass up a good thing. Just remember that. I recommend you leave that one alone. Although Toyota is a great car. If you plan on buying that car be prepared to spend about $1,500 or better on that car to get it right. If I recall those particular Toyota’s had problems with their cats for a little while. If they are bad and completely stopped up you could risk getting too much back pressure in the system and blowing the engine. If you think just cutting them off and welding up a straight pipe to the muffler is going to be the solution that will not work, because you’ll never pass a safety inspection or emissions test if your state requires it. Plus you’ll be spending a lot more in fuel because the car will run rich or maybe even too lean and that’s not good either. Just not a good idea, toxic fuel fumes could also be a problem. Sometimes another thing to remember would be. You get what you pay for. So it would probably be best to save a little extra money and get something you know will pass inspection. Take it to a mechanic like Scotty who can hook it too a scan tool and tell you what’s really wrong. Not a shade tree mechanic either. Nothing worse than guess work. Real mechanics have the right tools. That’s how they feed their families. Guess work could cost you extra money that’s not even necessary.

wow, you are a great son to do that for her, sorry for your loss, incredible car..

I'm generally an import fan, but that Z/28 is gorgeous and your set up is really nice. EFI upgrade makes it even sweeter! Thank you for sharing this with us!

Lovely walk down memory lane in honor of your Mother, quite touching. Gave me chills when you talked about caregiving during her final years-- you have a kind heart. Loved the wondrous sense of adventure passed along to you by your MOM, who raced that gorgeous hunk of American metal! You go, girl! Super thoughtful video, thank you.

Sorry for your lost I have my mom's 2000 Monte Carlo SS she bought new she passed away in 2010 it still has Dale Earnhardt number 3 on the quarter window she put on before he died.

Thanks so much for showing this video. I feel the same way about my 68 Camaro, I need to get it restored so I can pass it down to my son.

Absolutely stunning. Very touching. Doesn’t matter if it’s Ford or Chevrolet, every car has a story and that’s what makes them special. Most people only see what’s on the outside...

Awesome 1969 Camaro Z28. Thank you for sharing the history of you ride!

Dude, that is a heck of a tribute to your Mom. Great Job!

Beautiful car, man! Your mom was the real MVP! May she rest in peace and power!

Many sympathies for your Mom, my Mom passed in 2016. Miss you Mom!

Beautiful car Thank God you got it BACK after selling it.

That is one Mom who knew her cars! Great car and a wonderful tribute to your Mom.

I love the old Camaros! Beautiful car 👍

Wow... I had bought a Brand New 1969 Camaro 327 V8 almost the same color but with White hardtop and I painted White Racing Strips the same width as video. It cost me $3000. I wish I still had it. Darn!

My dad use to have a 69 Z28 Rally Sport, he's told me so many stories about that car, he even raced a Chevelle with it around the Indianapolis motor speedway one time. And also every time we talked about that car mentioned how much he regretted selling it, he's bought an 02 Z06 since then to replace it.

I lost both, so I can imagine how you feel. And nice car btw. God bless you! Cheers from good old Germany.

Sweet ride. I used to fantasize about having one of those with a 5 Speed manual, fuel injected 350 and 4 wheel independent suspension. This was in the 70's.Well now days you can get anything for anything ; just open up your bank account! Once again sweet ride!

You have a fine Camaro, much respect to your Mom. You should be proud.

Great car , kept up by the whole family, and friends. Not just good looks, but a lot of meaning and memories too. You are very lucky to have a beautiful car with such sentimental value. Thanks for sharing your story.

Awesome! I'm 14 and starting to love classic cars. I'm currently working on a 1980 fiat spider 2000, but I plan on getting a 1970 240Z.

Awesome story! I totally understand because my mom bought a 67 Camaro RS SS 396 4speed M22 Muncie Midnight blue with the white stripe across the front. She would take us to school in that car! Man we were the coolest kids lol everyone knew it was us because of the rumble that car made! Yup she raced it to lol but sadly someone stole it and my mom past away last July but she loved my nova so I'll be making that car in her honor with a big block 427! Take care man wish you all the best

Love these cars. Hearing the story behind this one makes it even better. Very touching.

Beautiful car and beautiful story behind it!

Cool Z28! I can't imagine road racing anywhere in Colorado these days. It's bumper to bumper traffic on I-70 and I-25, and all the back roads are full of semi trucks and RVs. The one exceptions: If I leave in the morning while it's still dark outside, I can get to Morrison on my motorcycle and occasionally ride some twisties through Clear Creek Canyon before traffic gets too bad. Blackhawk and Central City is usually pretty decent.

Hey Scotty. Just wanted to let you know I absolutely love your videos I’m 15 and I have learned so much about cars bike etc from your channel. Just wanted to let you know what you do is amazing. Have a great day.

What a great story about the Z 28 my buddy has a gold 69Z and one of the best cars ever made what a tribute to your mom to have her riding in the car hope you get the 302 restored and get it back to the stock looking addition because that’s a nice car and a beautiful tribute to your mom and that’s why we love cars

I wonder if the current owner was made on the backseat of this car or perhaps on the hood!?

Very nice story about his tribute to his mother, sounds bad ass with those lake pipes & cutouts.

Yes great car video feature and so moving. Very nice tribute for his mom. Glad he spoke about how he took care of her too. My mom sustained a neck injury in the yard and is in transitional care soon to come home and will be doing the same.

Some of the best auto memories I have from my childhood were with my Mom. Great car there.

it actually makes me happy to hear that beautiful story of your mom's time with the car. Also super heartmelting to see that even though it was raced, it is in beautiful condition.

Oh, man. You just made my fams day. Dad had one. Loved it.

My mom had a 3rd Gen iroc z when she was a teenager, my grandpa got it from his brother because the city told him he had to many cars on his property so he sold it to my grandpa. It was all white with t tops and yellow bucket seats with hood pins. Not the original engine but a big v8 that's why there was hood pins. I would love to get one exactly like it so she can drive it and I can drive it too.

BEAUTIFUL CAR bravo, and thank you so much for sharing your story about your mom and this badass Camaro :D

My mom starts praying when I hit the 140 mile/hr this was a cool mom you had there sir.

The mom racing was actually a cooler story than the car itself :)

Why is it more than just a muscle car? It's a Camaro. That's why. My favorite car forever.

Best show off video i've ever seen on this channel! I loved the story behind the car!

That car is beautiful! I've owned a los of cars in my life but the best one I had was a 1977 Firebird pon. I loved that car.

Glad to have watched this video

One of the nicest Camaros I've seen. Love the paint color as well!

Incredible car and tribute to your mom brother! Much respect!

I like how Scotty keeps up the content with these videos. Some other car channels have slowed down, but it's good to see that there is more to put out.

I just want one so bad but simply don't have the time. There's a guy who sells them for cheap in a small town but the engines are dead. The shell (as I call it) are surprisingly good, not rusty. He is an old timer with serious money, told me he used to buy them and then go on to the next one, keeping a few with him and selling the rest. I'll will get one as a project car once I have the time.

In 20 years if you rebuild a car you'll drop in a crate electric motor, but realistically cars WON'T be rebuilt. They'll be so electrically controlled you'll need to be an electrical engineer to understand them. Things change.

Thanks for posting the video. Great looking car and even greater story behind it. Looking forward to seeing the finished project.

Great unique story, I don't remember ever hearing a story like this one where it wasn't "dad's" car.. next time start the story "this car's been in my family for years, it was handed down to me, my dad and I have worked on it together, it helps us remember of our dear loved one, who first bought it brand new, and who first raced this car on the track. Yup, you guessed it, my mom" (now every guy reading this stops with a blank stare, processing the typo. No wait, what? Who? His mom? He must be mistaken .. The reader continues to read in awe....

my all time favorite since I was a kid in 80s

Sweet! Love the TV voice Rich. Granted all I did to help was handing you tools when you lived in Westminster.

Yess, that's a pretty car Sir. And I'm green with envy.

Beautiful story behind a beautiful car. Thanks for sharing!

that's a nice 69. my brother had a 69 ss 396 camaro here in new zealand. he sold it to a workmate -who was a panel beater.[ he own his own panel shop in the pass] that new owner strip it down and did a rebuild

scotty get the hell of the trunk for god sakes lol 302 camaro thats bad ass definitely worth a few bucks nice tribute to mom! gotta love a woman who digs cars !!

I have always thought the 1969 was the best Camaro made!!!

Hey Scotty, I have a 2014 Ford Explorer that jerks really abruptly when going from P>R>N>D, it’ll also jerk at random speeds, the traction control light turns off and “Service advance trak” turns on. When turning the key it sometimes won’t turn on. Few days ago it left me stranded and had to have it towed. This will be my second time taking it to the dealer, and they told me that “everything is fine with the new battery we put in”, they also said that a possible reason for all the jerking was due to “low voltage in the battery” but the car has been jerking for like about a year now. I doubt that a battery with “low voltage” would take a year to die. Anyways, I have to pay $170 for the new battery, and $180 again for the safety inspection. That’s practically $530 for a battery replace .What should I do because there is definitely something wrong with the car they just can’t find any issues with it or don’t want to fix it cause we have bumper to bumper warranty. ANYONE PLEASE HELP !

"Why would you have a car like that? it's so unpractical, it's just a car" these kind of people should leave earth

Love the cars. Thank you Scotty.

Nice! I'm doing the EFI setup right now also. I've got a '77 z28

Sandy sounds like she was a super awesome girl. I say girl because im 58. So cool that her son is fixing the car up in her honor!

Cars with sentimental value are the best kind!

Thanks for sharing this really touching story and passion.

Love those Thrush side pipes. Don't see them too often.

Great story great car

1969 was a very good year for chevrolet....I had a 69 SS CHEVELLE.. 396 .. 350 hp thm 400...silver.......sorry for your loss... Your mom was cool..good taste in cars

That’s a sweet ride, love that year.

Great car and great family history. I love the thrush side pipes, very rare today.

My first car, at 16 bought it for 5800, years later brother got in a wreck with it, Wish I had it today.

Thats what gets me fuel injection always blows unburnt fuel out. But what a sweet camaro.

You are right. But really rare. There was only 602 z28's built in '67.

Gotta love the classics especially the ones that are in the family. :D

Super cool ride and a great story to go along with it.

Beautiful car, thanks for sharing with everyone.

Beutiful camaro, my dad owns 2 1969 camaros. Ones an original z/28 and the other is a ss convertible that is being restored!

gorgeous car to remember gorgeous times

Not a Camaro fan (an old Mustang fan) but am a fan of three pedals!

Awesome story behind this beaut of a car and keep her lit🤙🏻

Go Sandy Go!

What a beautiful color on that car.

My mom drove a brown Chevy Nova when I was growing up. People forget that girls like cool cars too!
