Vehicle Description
This 1967 Chevrolet Camaro Dick Harrell Tribute is a big power big
block coupe. And while you're going to love the upgraded muscle,
there's also a detailed build to make sure it's an all-around,
wonderful, tribute.
This car has a mean stance where its intimidation is as clear as
black and white...literally. The bright white paint has a nice
clearcoat luster. It does a good job of highlighting the crisp body
lines of the coupe. And it also makes for a distinguished backdrop
for speedy dark elements, like the SS hood stripe, front air dam,
and those extra meaty rear tires. And we know you recognized the
Corvette's stinger hood. It really shows that this one is built for
performance, and it was one of Dick Harrell's special upgrades. For
those who don't already know the legend of Dick Harrell, just think
about Yenko and Motion Performance. Harrell was the horsepower
master of the Midwest, and his Kansas City shop was the birthplace
for some of the best street and strip bow ties. In fact, it's
believed that Chevrolet asked for his input on some of their
hottest cars of the 1960s. So to find one of his few surviving
originals will cost you the same as taking over a KC bbq sauce
company. That's why an accurate replica is quite a nice find. This
has some cool details, like a dealer tag for Chicago's
Ferrell-Hicks - a Midwest dealer famous with performance car
fans.
The black interior keeps this car's color theme going nicely. It
also retains a cool and classic style. Low-back bucket seats, a
center console, and the thin/grippy three-spoke steering wheel make
for a nice driver's combo. Even the trunk has a nice stock-style.
An upgraded car like this was expected to have an upgraded gauge
package. So you have a cool set of classic-style Stewart Warner
readouts cleanly installed below the dash. Plus, there's a matching
SW tach mounted prominently on top of the steering column.
The callouts on the stinger hood were not lying. The engine bay is
filled with 427 cubic-inches of big block power. This is the famous
displacement for those who wanted the most out of a Chevrolet in
the muscle car era. Chevy never officially offered anything this
large on the first-gen Camaro. Instead, it took special orders from
people like Harrell to get the best powerhouse in the lightweight
Camaro coupes. They also upgraded these nicely, so it's great to
see this enhanced with a Holley Street Avenger four-barrel
carburetor, winters aluminum intake, and long tube headers. The
stout TH400 three-speed automatic transmission has been upgraded
with a shift kit and 2500 RPM stall. This feeds the strong 12-bolt
rear end. There's also frame connectors, traction bars, and power
brakes with front discs for solid all-around performance.
This is the strong and powerful Camaro built as a great tribute to
a true street king. So if you want to pass everyone, don't let this
deal get past you. Call now!
