1967 Chevrolet RS/SS Camaro that went through a complete nut and bolt rotisserie restoration. The entire body was walnut shelled. This Camaro is a high option- numbers matching car, and it was restored back to its original glory. Chevrolet introduced the 350 engine in the 1967 SS Camaro. This Camaro is a California car, and it was unmolested when the restoration began. As you will see, this is a classic example of where a picture is worth a thousand words. It was difficult to pick the best pictures because I have hundreds of pictures that documented the entire restoration.
As previously indicated, this Camaro came with many options from the factory. Unless indicated below all original chrome and trim was straightened, polished and/or re-chromed. All items that are factory black were powder coated. E.g., subframe, wheel wells, rear end, etc.
I tried my best to capture every aspect of the restoration. I am always available for any clarifying questions. As you will see in the pictures, no expense or detail was spared. It is rare you find such a high option unmolested original Camaro. Please- Serious inquiries only.
