We are looking for sweet arnicare, what's up? let's get the right people and do something the job the right parts easy easy and go to work then I hope it's perfect someone wants to buy it let their money break your happiness that's how you get from

wrecks

to

riches

in the wrecking yards in All over America, there are hidden treasures if you know what you're looking for, whether buyers of this Camaro spend good money on a little nostalgia or thirty-thirty guineas, it's no better, but how do you do this with this one? , hmm, hotrod guru?

He's right and his designer Chris Brown knows the secrets, it looks like we could save that one-man island, they scour real and virtual junkyards to find hidden gems like this 69 Chevrolet Camaro wanted to call me, okay Becky and I'll run. and take a look at it and see what it looks like okay if barry can turn this accident into a beauty showroom for the pretty busy jackson hole auto auction beautified he could eliminate cancer 24500 shoulder pad 20 years in business from hotrods Barry knows a thing or two about building cars, especially Musk from the '60s, a lot of the muscle cars in Camaros Nova, all that kind of stuff, our unibody cars, meaning they just had a frame on the front part, so the back half of the car is the body.

It's the frame and it had rails that were actually welded directly to the floor of the car, so there's no complete chassis. The floor is very important in these cars. They've come to Terry Gwynn's wrecking yard. 40 acres, 350 accidents, but Terry knows this bike. He only has eyes for his Camaro, this is, this is, yeah, the last look when I got the end of an era it doesn't look bad, it may look like a pie made of garbage, your front looks good mmm, not much rust hmm , but Barry knows what it is. potential, the Camaro is the quintessential muscle car.

I mean, I was built to race the Mustang floor and it looks pretty good. GM's killer Mustang first hit the road in 1967 and sold for $2,500 for the base six-cylinder model, the car I remember in my neighborhood as a kid was in the '69 Camaro that was silver had a car with 302 cross shifter to me was just that I mean it was as cool as it seems like everyone has some kind of memory about a Camaro or someone they knew that had a Camaro or had one when they were in high school so I guess which will sell very easily. 21 for it, ah, you know, I think I have to get about 7 thousand dollars for it, honey, grandma, that's it, huh?

What's your butt? I mean, well, then your room. Well, you know, I'll work with you. What do you have? What do you want? We are trying to make money with a car. I mean, that's part of the premise of the project, so we need to find the cheapest car we can, but we don't want to find something that's completely rotting away. How about $6,000? Hey, meet me in the middle. I can spend around 6200, that's all my money. Budget can convince you today, yeah today we would alert less than 50 miles, hey hey I think so sorry about 30 miles away you got a deal ok man thanks at Berry Speed ​​Shop on Corona, California, your team waits tangled, save it or not. we can save it, you should have, why 6000, that's a lot for a show, see if the ruins fall to the earth, but they don't make them like that anymore, yeah, and Barry hopes to get ten times as much when he's done, Chris gets. work on the design of a spectacular well, I want to know what color the weak Camaro was so I can make Leonard jump, come thinking silver flash drives, yes, thanks.

I thought you weren't a big fan of silver. I don't like silver, but back when I was a kid, there was a guy in our neighborhood who had a silver Z28 with black stripes. I think it would be great. Chris's design is crucial to attracting big buyers. Nothing beats a unique look. The silver color is a little stealthy. It doesn't pick it up as much as some of the other bright colors, but it looks very aggressive. It is a very mechanical type of color. The silver car looks all metal. It seems like it's just a metal car that's really pushed to its limit.

The engine will have a very mechanical look on this car, with a blower, the sheet metal valve covers will take you very low, putting the spoiler under the front, like a Z28 would have, it will have a really bold look, it should . It takes less than a week to prep and paint the body, that's if the frame is as good as Barry Vincent's, but the Camaro is starting to show its true self. Shall we check the other side to see if there is rust on both sides? Have you bought Barry? a lemon, come on, I have to show you something in less than four weeks, the Camaro will sink in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, run seven five and hold the open-air auction, it may not be the largest in the area, but the tourist town It attracts money and that's when the bearings I'll need I'll show you the bright side.

This $6000 rebuild will cost you a lot more. We have a structural problem. I wonder if they will do that piece. That's what I'm thinking. We would have to cut this entire section. Someone. try to fix this one on this side this is your body filler the body panels are a mess that's right, pretty good. I was hoping we'd have a little better sheet metal on the car than we have and that's very important. unibody floor how are the floors on the floors? Well, look what we have here in the corner. The problem is that this puts us in a bind.

We can fix what's there, which will require a lot of tiling work. What is our time frame? Don't know. That's a realistic idea for us. It rusts on the structural unibody and involves almost every panel of the car under the paint. More bad news. Blood from women's penis also cuts through botched repair jobs. At this rate, it will take a month to fix the bodywork. The team has one week. What I've learned with these old cars seems like the more paint there is, the more someone has had their fingers in it and they've been hit full of bondo or whatever, they were just in bad shape.

It works every time we hit it with a grinder, we just discover another bad spot where there is rust or bondo. Work for no reason. What's happening? Not the way we wanted to berry start this car. I bought a dog no matter how many cars it once survived. For a while, you buy a car that you think is better than the owner who had it didn't realize what was wrong and neither did I. When his tight deadline hit a tight spot, his only option was to invest more money in new panels. . I need plenty of sheet metal I need a Colin reduction hood for both doors or at least the door skins I need the front panel and bottom balance I can't wait a week while the boss blows out the smoke Barry doesn't know but someone made it a police rescue I can't draw a kid with different sports cars and literally scaring me to the point where my knees would continue to throb and jump from the adrenaline, won't he get over it?

Barry won't get a turf fine. He just wants to lend a hand in front of my kids, he went to high school with him, he's a Kelowna police officer and they have some guys there that are willing to join. We have a lot of guys that the department is interested in. Muscle Cars, do you ever need help? Absolutely, yes, hell yes, we're building a ton of cars right now. Alright, be careful, thanks, you never know when you'll meet a Muscle Car fan. Hey, if you want to help, follow me on Buy Well, I think anyone who gets into a Muscle Car and gets that feeling, will be hooked on the workshop.

Chris also comes to the rescue. Check it out. I get there and they actually have both sides of these and that other hinge I have. I thought we were going to be able to get it, so I got every single piece we needed. Great look at that perfect, rust-free car of Tony's. We take all the new stuff and put in the old parts that we need that they don't make or that we can. recover the original material and put it on and continue from there excellent, we even smiled, you made them smile. Wow, how is that?

But those smiles have cost a dearly $9,000 in new panels added to the original body's berry speedometer. Red's more than 14 thousand dollars. Without even a lick of paint, the body team has to work quickly to get back on schedule. If you're trying to gain space by doing this, the door will be or higher in the back, we'll just clear it here, okay, let's do it. Drescher. showing between young Todd and wise old man tell me wash it from the new neighborhood stop separating this I'm sure they're in place before it goes from bad to worse now that the new parts are causing problems let's stop Tony has a lot of patience and Todd He's a really calm guy, so we'll see how long he lasts.

They're aiming for something like this, a '69 Camaro that epitomizes the muscle car era, but then they go further with modern technology to build a super muscle car. You had that original look, but at the same time it's all modern technology. Three days longer than expected. The Camaro's body is finally ready for painting. The darker the base you put underneath, the darker the finished products will be because silver is very transparent. So if you want to put a light base on it, if you want a dark one, put a dark base on it and then they'll put three colors on it, the silver base on top, maybe for the dolphins, how it covers Coach Boxer this day. the stand cost Barry another $4,000, these have been dollars that are around 20k at this rate, he may never make his money back at the auction, but he's in too deep to stop now, by the way, you're late to this, the auctions in two and a half weeks.

The fires in the great city of Jackson Hole come from all over the country. We're going to use the bottom and the pro shaft arm. The steering arm will be looking for something special. I'm ready to remove the engine mounts from the sway bar. Throw that in the dumpster something like an engine let's take the whole front crossover look for help doing that something with build quality they are willing to pay 55 at 7am. o'clock at the auctions in two and a half weeks, what did they do? Go out and have them blow it up and the shad berries don't even come close.

The '69 Camaro subframe is strengthened to accept a new custom supercharged 383 v8 engine. I found some tension points in the frame that we'll address when you're under pressure. you want Tim on your team oh look at that dashboard and his friends at the Corona Police Department miles are you going to drool or are you going to come here and work I need some rags to clean up all the drool look at all these new parts here's the airbag these guys only have a few fast cars now they can build one we buy it it's like being a little kid again no matter what it is I'm cutting something or replacing something or just cleaning it or it doesn't matter just being there to touch it feel it smell it and be around it of it, it's these off duty officers showing Barry's team a thing or two no arguments no complaints no job too small a well trained The machine ran fantastic, I mean they came and couldn't start the car fast enough, I mean, and they showed them what we needed, they made some cuts and they didn't have much experience in sheet metal, but they jumped right in and had no problems. learning that they even managed to patch the last of the rusty panels, which I usually do if you want to get as close as you have here, you know, mark here on the market back here so you know where it really is.

I did not do it. Save it a little longer. I never installed you. When you're done with that, they'll give me some air conditioning ducts. Oh oh oh, yeah, Berry's expanded team has just two weeks to rebuild the interior and install the engine's electrical components and get it running here, so he comes. He came back and told me I did it wrong, Officer Lia Shatford grew up around cars and the garage. My dad loves classic hot rods cars. You know, we looked at old cars. I go to car shows when I was little. He let me help him.

I work on the cars, great, I have the Corona Police Department involved in this build, it's been great, those guys are so excited, this slides under like this and then this cut with the interior, oh, there it is you have, and you know, the instructions didn't help me. I found out on my own, we will only have a short period of time to build all of these cars, so having volunteers come and help us really helps with the build. It's the endDuring the week, most of the team takes a break, but the stalwarts come in. for a Camaro milestone, you're definitely plowing, Sergeant Miles, right.

Lakes just can't get enough the other night, my wife called me, she's going, don't worry, she's going. I have your boy's shirt all clean, it's ready to go. I know you. "I'm going to go there, it's sitting in the frame right now, she wants me to be happy and she knows it's something that really brings joy, so put yours on any one here, yeah, I look kinda good there, yeah .I think you look good, yeah you look, oh you look good buddy, you got me so shocked I can't find my bowl, here we go, this custom John Barrett 3/8, three small block is just the beginning. a supercharger is coming that will take this 35 year old baby into the 21st century with an $8,000 hit on the speedo now up to 30,000 looks fine through the intake ports, it's just that the pairing doesn't need any more trouble, something is definitely not right , but it has one, the supercharger doesn't fit the engine block, hmm, the intake metal still doesn't fit the heads, right?

You're probably going to need the right thing pink auctions pay twice look here guys and gals what they start when it's good the cane businessman very one reserved his place the car auction Jackson Hale was planning to take Cinderella to the ball just take it away There is hope that they will make a new father to transform a dilapidated '69 Chevy Camaro, they are including a spectacular spectacle. Come on, I have to show you some, but Cinderella turned into an ugly stepsister. You know, every time we turned around, there was something I was wrong about. We had a stressful problem injecting sprouts, it's been a tough road to get here and it cost too much time and money instead of just putting a band aid on it, we've cut it out, we've fixed it, we've put it back the way it's supposed to be , we could have easily done it I just patched it but that's not us that's not what we do with just over a week to show time Barry is way behind now he has a problem with the engine the supercharger doesn't fit we didn't talk to the supercharger guys about what the engine was the injectors will come out with it and the heads are high and the blower inlet is not a port inlet at all so that's no one's fault but ours just didn't communicate with everyone to find out what they are doing because of the time frame. the one we've been working on, we're there, you know, one in the berry shop can remember a construction as damned as this, a parody called the sky, everything about it, yes, I do even the simplest job, the car holds its own , the guys are starting to think the Camaro is haunted its new nickname is Christine is fighting it in every way, yes we have a water pump, a strong pump, something else is wrong with this car, every bitten piece that we need to get for this car it is impossible to get, it is a The nightmare of a car is actually what it is Christine is a killer car in Stephen King's novel, it seems to have resurfaced in Barry's speed shop, it will be the Corolla for afternoon when Garrett was working on the car and heard a crash and looked outside. the rear end and spoiler were now on the ground so instead of going forward or backward on that sort of thing it will be repainted, the wind picked up and blew it to the ground and it was painted over and erased, I won't say.

Tell him it's okay now that the spoiler went back to the paint shop to be repainted. Seven days until the auction. Who will win? Barry or Christine will conquer the thing. There are no two ways to do it. It will be one of the best. Camaros, you see less than a week to Showtime, if Christine is going to make a ball, the team has to work fast, the ferry engine guy, Ken, comes with a pitch for the supercharger, so what he did was lift the collector three sixteenths of a. inches with welding and then they milled it so that when he tightened the manifold it would seat the entire field he came to the rescue the team has been running uphill since it started there has to be something like this the cars always break down Tom won't do it I'm sure there's something missing nevermind there's one problem solved yes there's always another one it would be nice if the wheels got to the tire store I mean what's going on that's a good question last time I called there to get some answer no, we need to fix like no one answers the phone endless battle so far she has stolen three weeks and $35,000 worth of berries ruining the day Christine darkened her door this can't be happening Annie can you open the idle air a little more in this case for the team?

The supercharger repair has the small block ready to go 550 horsepower at the crank okay 140 now set it to 1515 we put a certain amount of initial timing on it and then you could put it in or out with the computer you don't have this engine . and the blower must attract bidders to make sure Barry gives the idol just the right mark. An idol sounds good. It has just enough to make it sound like it's something. Let's get school or we know it's supposed to be about first impressions. on the auction floor, but also the details, the interior of the Camaro will look like the original but will be better than any factory model in equally crucial external details, how far with a finger things are helping your fingers using your finger medium, that's for all discerning buyers. look for quality fit and bounce, that trim is the most important part of the whole car, that's your first impression when you walk up and see the car, you see all the bezels and chrome pieces and you know the trim pieces and around the windows and that's all the car that's what makes the dash new disc brakes throughout hi-5 digital system

christine

's ghost is being exorcised but not without a fight coming back karna to cut it off yes

christine

baby my mind is in come on to problem, I guess It's very, I want to be like you when I go up with only three days left, the exhausted team can see the end, it will be a sad day if this car ever returns to this show, so successfully it will definitely go and you know.

Find him alone, he's gone. Barry always wanted a mean looking car, he just didn't have the personality to go with it. He's lost forty thousand taming Christine so far much more than planned, but he's not going to rush at the last minute. At times, I usually like to put as much of the tire under the rear of the car as possible, which sometimes means cutting off a little bit here and there. Typically the fender lips are pretty wide, so we just went in and watched it be done a bit. Sand it and simply clean it so that we don't have any friction.

Christine gets new shoes, shiny chrome wheels, and low-profile tires. You'll soon know if the looks match the performance. The car violated Christine's orders. It's ready for a test drive. Okay, baby, come on, let's finish you. Well, 28 days ago, designer Chris Brown imagined the car that a boy remembered from his youth. It's a good, solid car. That kid was Barry White. He says that rain falls on the earth for four weeks. Barry. and his team feed off this tired old Camaro, transforming it into a masterpiece. Click on it or dig into the car. The car may have been cursed, but they had the law on their side ready.

That's it for Sergeant Miles Truex and the off-duty Corona police officers who helped discipline. this baby, the honor of Christine's first drive, uh, this Camaro goes fast standing still, it's a very aggressive looking car. I love the way that even though the colors pop, the silver and black really go well together, having the shiny wheels still gives it a bit. a little bit of pizzazz at the same time, it's that card that stays with you forever and that's the car that seems like people come in and want to resurrect themselves to get that time back, which was really cool.

You see guys have cars like this, say it right. It took me two years to get it this way. You know, four weeks is just incredible. Every detail is perfect. A 69 Camaro revived with old and new technology. It looks really amazing. Looks great. The stripes look good. It's just an amazing car. It turned out real. Well, under the hood, the supercharged small-block V8 growls like a cougar behind, fire up the engine heads. I mean, we can hear it from anywhere you work and it has a distinctive sound. Police officer Leah Shatford puts in long weekends in Bury.

Speed ​​Shop to see it go from nothing to a beautiful piece of history is not a thing in itself, but the true test, the moment of atonement for Christine the Camaro, is here in Jackson Hole. It's a perfect day for an outdoor corner. The question is: is it the perfect place? The buyer here somewhere said it's one of the

riches

t communities out there, so hopefully some of those people would come out and want a Camaro. It would be great, someone good. Will this be Barry's day in the sun? He has to be getting this shine. baby here it cost him a total of $45,000 around 100,000 will anyone get a pug?

It's deep enough. Get started today. I won't fit in again. They didn't fit that big winner and Hoover. All chrome on the engine. Awesome. I'd really love to. walk in and sigh, the vibe is good, but to get an idea of ​​the prices, Barry heads to the auction, ten trees, look at this Camaro, here's the carpet and everyone wants to take a look here, boys and girls, what do you want to do first? problem another Camaro hits Barry on the ground and it's red I love this color red light it's an original restoration without the modern technology of Barry's super muscle car 22 to have on Janice 8/25 25 23 I have 20 xenia 23 5 just ahead 23 for 24 24 year 2100 for you, better 25 I won't if there are rich Camaro fans here, don't show.

I'll take 25 seven now 30 find out who will ever have it 20 for 750 snow $25,500 a gentleman indeed sir. narrow makes only 25 green good job, good job. I'm a little anxious, it's one of those things, you know, you've got a lot of money invested in this car, in my opinion, I think I've given it away and we always want to top it. that amount so at least we're there and after that everything is fine yellow shirt 25 i was 35 to break even could be a problem do you get really tense at this point just making sure the car is going to start and Running through the auction and all that, you're rolling the dice, it's Las Vegas, every time you go there, you know I'm not a big gambler, so this is pretty stressful for me at Barry's Speed ​​Shop, they called this Camaro Christine in honor of the haunted one.

Stephen King's car and novel is one of the stars in the show. Ovalan in the junkyard. It seemed like a good idea. End of an era. Bring a 69 Camaro back to the future. Okay, thanks Bridget, well, you're invited. Look closely. the outfit don't give your wallet done today this is show quality paint it's like looking at a fear with fires that can't be fired this is the problem that Christine brought we had a structural problem we have to cut this entire section every time I hit it with a grinder , we just discovered another bad point when closing the example, what are the low-profile fires?

As far as Christine's appropriately named goes, it's an absolutely incredible bill for an opportunity for you to buy one of the best Camaros in the world right here and the battle between Barry and Christine isn't over and what do you think I don't know right? now if you don't get forty five grand the car window I had 30 in three different places I have 30 I need 40 35 I have 40 on the third another 40 41 42 a 40 days less than what varies almost a 44 44 44 divided by 45 I am Janice with $45,000 46 down 37 47 we still have three bidders 48 48 48 cool yard twenty eight 48 48 48 cars more m5 down 48 now 48 Mike 48 48 48 supercharged on board is in for 48 48 48 percent for 48 49 49 49 49 50 now 15 1070 150 150 150 150 150 thousand fifty to fifty two thirty-two thousand two one seven F if you do Oh, here divided by fifty by 555 lat the car is running from 55 to 255 five no in 5575 5575 do it right this is the last call and last chance everyone shouldn't help it seems like the hitter Hi Arnel, this card looks great your collection of nice cars 56,000 bye one ball received cookies 30:56 two and one- Half never bothered at the bar see fifty and six thousand five hundred I have a 56 mm cookie six 7 mm yes three six seven 1/2 5670 money 36 times 1/2 I don't have your boy this is your last chance 5650 and I say yes I'm sure bing-bang- boom, come on fifty-six thousand five hundred dollars, sweet victory, Christine's curse is over, she has a new life and a proud new owner, this was without a doubt the best car here, by far, from all points of view. you're talking about quality, you're talking about price, you're talking about popularity, this car right here, the number one car in virtually every category, this car should know not to mess with Barry White.

Well, our Dell pulled through, it was pretty crazy. They go a couple hundred at a time but they throw it in there it was amazing it's like coming and going andhe shouts yes, they're happy but Christine takes one more bite Oh, turning off the battery Tom must have been sharp under there I've got you in a blood that never ends
