Vehicle Description
If this 1967 Camaro RS/SS 396 was the real deal, it would cost at
least twice as much. So why not enjoy the look and feel of the
nastiest F-body built in 1967? With black paint, a 4-speed gearbox,
cold A/C, and that big block under the hood, this is a big, bad
Camaro that runs as great as it looks.
Black isn't this car's original color but it sure looks right on
this one. It's dressed like an RS/SS, so it has the folding
headlights, cowl induction hood, and rear spoiler that make it the
best-looking Camaro we've seen in a long time, and it even includes
the single-element taillights and RS gas cap. A total lack of
stripes adds a touch of formality to the overall look, and if a
Camaro can be stealthy, this might be it. Bright chrome bumpers
look especially good against the black paint and the clean lines of
the early Camaro always look best in dark colors.
The all-new black bucket seat interior is the only choice with the
sinister black paint job and it's just as upscale-looking as the
bodywork. It has been treated to new seat covers, fresh carpets,
reproduction door panels, and a dash full of crisp, clear gauges
and auxiliary dials underneath. A 4-speed manual gearbox uses a
Hurst shifter with a cue ball knob and no console for an industrial
all-performance feel. The new Vintage Air A/C system uses a
factory-style set of sliding levers to blend in almost invisibly
and the factory vents indicate this was a factory A/C car. It's not
over-dressed, just functional. The trunk wears correct
spatter-finish paint and needs only a reproduction mat (very
inexpensive) to complete the high-quality finished look.
It says '396' on the air cleaner but it's actually a burly 454
cubic inch V8 living under the hood. It looks right wearing Chevy
Orange paint, chrome valve covers, and a proper open element air
cleaner that inhales through the cowl induction hood. Upgrades
include the polished Edelbrock intake manifold, Holley 4-barrel
carburetor, a giant aluminum radiator, and long-tube headers to
fatten up the torque curve. You'll be glad for the power steering
and power front disc brakes on a car with this much performance and
it sounds spectacular with the fresh Flowmaster dual exhaust system
cackling underneath. There's also a 10-bolt rear end with
easy-cruising highway gears inside and the chassis is just as clean
as the engine bay, worthy of the car's expensive look. Handsome
Rally wheels and 215/70/15 white-letter tires complete the
look.
This is a very impressive car on every level. Smart upgrades make
it a lot more desirable and there's just nothing like a big block
Camaro dressed in basic black. Call today!
