UNDERCARRIAGE

Chevrolet Camaro is an American automobile manufactured by
Chevrolet classified as a pony car and some versions also as a
muscle car. It went on sale on September 29, 1966, for the 1967
model year and was designed as a competing model to the Ford
Mustang. The car shared its platform and major components with the
Pontiac Firebird, also introduced for 1967.Four distinct
generations of the Camaro were developed before production ended in
2002. The nameplate was revived on a concept that evolved into the
fifth-generation Camaro; production started on March 16, 2009.The
first-generation Camaro debuted in September 1966, for the 1967
model year, up to 1969 on a new rear-wheel drive GM F-body platform
and was available as a two-door coupe or convertible with 2+2
seating, and a choice of 230
cu
in (3.8
L), 250
cu
in (4.1
L) inline-6 or 302 cu in (4.9
L), 307
cu
in (5.0
L), 327
cu
in (5.4
L), 350
cu
in (5.7
L), and 396
cu
in (6.5
L) V8 powerplants. Concerned with the runaway success of the Ford
Mustang, Chevrolet executives realized that their compact sporty
car, the Corvair, would not be able to generate the sales volume of
the Mustang due to its rear-engine design, as well as declining
sales, partly due to the negative publicity from Ralph Nader's
book, Unsafe at Any Speed. Therefore, the Camaro was touted as
having the same conventional rear-drive, front-engine configuration
as the Mustang and Chevy II Nova. In addition, the Camaro was
designed to fit a variety of power plants in the engine bay. The
first-generation Camaro lasted until the 1969 model year and
eventually inspired the design of the new retro fifth-generation
Camaro.The first-generation offered a standard, Super Sport, and
Rally Sport editions. In 1967, the Z/28 model was added featuring
stripes on the hood and trunk, styled rally road wheels, and a
302
cu
in (4.9
L) V8 engine."American Dream Machines
