5 Cars Owned By Guy Fieri That Proves He Has Great Taste – SlashGear

The list wouldn’t be complete without including his Rojo Red (via Food Network) 1968 Chevrolet Camaro SS convertible co-host on “Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives.” Debates rage over whether he actually owns or drives it, and even the car’s model year … all of which makes for a great story (for another time).

During Jay Leno’s Garage, Fieri claims he purchased a complete frame-off restored ’68 to use on the show. If you’re unfamiliar with the term “frame off,” the entire car was stripped down to the frame, restored, and rebuilt.

On an episode of Chevrolet Performance’s “The Block,” Guy said the car’s 396 engine needed to be replaced. Instead of dropping in another 396, though, he called up his “buddies” at Chevy (Fieri has that kind of clout, being a big-time “Bow Tie Guy”). Instead, they put in a GM Performance ZZ 502 crate engine mated to a Tremec 5-speed manual that kicked out 502 horsepower and 567 foot-pounds of torque. They also added a Hotchkiss suspension system (via Jay Leno’s Garage).

But the ambiguity around this Camaro gets even hazier. During season 42 (episode 36, “Revved Up”), which aired in December of 2022, VP Speed Shop built an “identical twin sister” car that even Guy couldn’t tell apart from the original. So, which of the two does he have at home — the twin, or the original road warrior?
