FS/ FT - 1967 Camaro RS/SS clone, 7.4L 461cu, one of a kind resto - $37,500 (Battle Ground, WA)
VIN: 124377N216412
43,000 original miles on the car / less than 5,000 on the re-build. Hasn't seen a raindrop since 1980. This is not a fresh restoration, and all work / paint is about 10 years old.
This car was built for the best of both worlds - You can take it on the freeway, or the local car show...and it will exceed your expectations in both environments.
With the exception of the paint striping & rear quarter louvers its a factory correct RS/SS clone...BUT was cloned from all three years of the first-gen cars (67-69), and uses the best attribute from each year. Yes this was done on purpose, it was done professionally, and you will never see another first gen camaro like it.
Examples:
- '67RS taillights - full lens taillight ('68/'69 models had a divider line down the middle)
- '67RS backup lights - no backup lights were factory available on '67 non-RS models)
- '68RS grille - wider than the '67RS grille, and when an RS/SS package were factory combined in '68 the grille was black instead of chrome, and the RS grille badges were replaced with SS...as is was correctly done here. NOTE: headlights have been upgraded to high intensity H4 Xenon bulbs 130/90w)
- '68RS rear spoiler D80 option code - no spoiler was offered with any trim package in '67, and the spoiler from '69 wouldn't fit due to narrower rear quarters
- '68RS lower front spoiler D80 option code - no lower spoiler was available in '67
- '68RS front and rear bumpers - bumpers in '67 & '69 had ugly bumper guards
- '68RS trim package (rare) Z22 option code
- '68 model side mirrors - rectangular instead of circular
- '69SS steel cowl hood (no cowl induction hood was offered until '69, and only on the SS, COPOS, and Pace Cars. NOTE: cowl induction system is brand new, with fully functioning flapper valves.
