Vehicle Description
Here's a first generation Camaro to be reckoned with. A coveted
combination of great looking exterior decked out in an outstanding
color, a newly refurbished interior and strong running power under
the hood equip this 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS tribute with a
great driving experience to go along with its magnetic curb
appeal.
The Bolero Red color this '67 sports is about as custom looking as
can be, but in reality, it's the very same shade this car drove off
the lot with more than a half century ago. It's obviously received
a skillful freshening up during its travels and offers a great
shine and a nice, smooth texture. Up front, the crisp black stripe
encircling the nose is a faithful recreation of the Super Sport
Camaros of the era while the clean black grille it surrounds
represents a nod to Rally Sport styling in the form of the hideaway
headlights contained inside that were reason enough for many car
buyers to opt for the RS package in the first place and since they
are now electric, they are in good working order. From the crisp
clean bumpers in front and back, to the trim surrounding the
windows and running the lengths of the rocker panels, the assembly
of chrome is in consistently good shape, as is the black vinyl top,
which shows no tears, fading or bubbling.
The interior has that ultra-fresh appearance to suggest it was
overhauled from scratch. The black vinyl seating in both front and
back still has its supple appearance and shows no creasing, the
door panels cling flush against their steel frames and the carpet
lining the floor shows no ill effects from foot traffic. Sitting
between the buckets, the center console is also in great shape,
placing the white-balled shifter within easy reach with a trio of
stylish gauges just a little farther forward. There's a very sharp
Super Sport badged steering wheel sitting on its tilt column, while
the gauges and control switches just beyond it all function as
intended, as do the power windows to each side. In back, the trunk
area also appears to be in very clean condition, with a fresh
rubber seal sitting under the deck lid to keep the elements out and
a plaid vinyl liner protecting the floor.
Ample power for this classic Chevy comes in the form of a 350 cubic
inch crate motor sitting in the compartment, dressed up with a
chrome air cleaner over its Quadrajet 4-barrel carb, to go along
with a pair of chrome valve covers. The engine is at the top of its
game, pulling with conviction and sounding great as it exhales into
its dual exhaust. The 4-speed manual M20 transmission just behind
it offers precise shifting, and the clutch action on hand here
feels just right. Overall, this Camaro really provides a nice
driving experience - in addition to the power it features, the
suspension and brakes are in good order, so it's riding nice and
stopping well. It patrols the asphalt on a set of faithfully
reproduced 15" stock Camaro wheels outfitted with BF Goodrich T/A
radials. Everything is looking very solid below, and from that
vantage point you can see the freshly painted oil pan and straight
suspension components.
With its great paint scheme, fresh interior and strong drivetrain,
this 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS Tribute is going to make some
lucky classic car enthusiast very happy. Call today!
