Vehicle Description
1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS Hardtop Tribute
RS on a Camaro speak stands for Rally Sport which was a cosmetic
package available on all trim levels. It included hidden
headlights, and reverse lights below the bumper, as well as a few
other options. When matched with the SS performance package, you
had a mean looking Camaro that could perform as well as it
looked.
For consignment, a 1967 Chevrolet Camaro sport coupe dressed up as
an RS/SS showing 18,003 non-verifiable miles on the odometer. While
a "clone" would have the correct engine and other mechanical and
cosmetic mimicry, a "tribute" takes certain parts and gives a
proverbial nod to that model. That's not to say our car has not had
some tasteful upgrades and along with RS components, represents a
great car for your consideration. The engine, transmission and rear
were rebuilt 2,000 miles ago according to our consignor and a new
wiring harness is on board to distribute the amps.
Exterior
Two stage Bolero Red paint is complemented by a black SS nose
stripe with SS emblems filling the break in the stripe. An SS
emblem is also on the grille which is flanked by matching headlight
covers in true RS fashion. The cowl hood extends high over the
vents, held in place by locking hood pins, and the windshield leads
to a black vinyl top in excellent condition. The chrome bumpers and
metalwork are in great condition and so is the SS gas cap on back
under a racy rear spoiler. 15-inch Chevrolet Rally wheels are on
board here with staggered size tires that contribute to the raked
stance of the car. A tasteful black pinstripe ends on the door with
a black bowtie and a 327 crest is on the front quarter panel.
Overall, the paint and exterior condition is in great condition,
and we could not find any glaring exterior flaws.
Interior
Simple black door cards welcome occupants of the car with typical
features and Camaro plaques on each door. Black vinyl buckets seats
are in very good condition and the back seats are equally as nice.
A black padded steering wheel rim surrounds four plastic spokes,
and the column provides the mounting base for a tachometer and red
shift light. Twin coves house the speedometer on the left while
black plastic backs the center stack that houses the vent controls
and AM/FM/Cassette radio and a triplet gauge pod is mounted under
the dash. A Hurst shifter with a chrome ball handle serves as the
joystick and like the entire center console, is in great shape.
Black loop style carpet covers the floor along with vintage style
Camaro rubber mats, while a stitched black headliner is clean and
intact.
Drivetrain
Just as the fenders say, a rebuilt 327ci power plant sits proudly
and in the very clean engine bay. Fuel is brought in by a 4-barrel
carburetor and a Muncie M20 4-speed manual transmission sends power
to the rear wheels where the 10 bolt axle is found. The engine bay
is replete with polished metal and coated headers, while red
ignition wires add some color and match the block. A gold brake
booster assists with sending fluid to power disc brakes in the
front with drilled and slotted rotors and power drums in the
rear.
Undercarriage
Very clean and dry underneath, uniformly black and only hints of
minimal surface rust. The dual exhaust comes from the headers and
links to an H-pipe before meeting up with a pair of Flowmaster
mufflers and exhaust, finally dumping inconspicuously behind the
bodywork and out of sight. Coil springs occupy the front
independent suspension while leaf springs are found in the back
with traction bars added.
Drive-Ability
We headed out onto the loop in this red tribute and even the
world's biggest geek will gain coolness points by simply piloting
this timeless classic. The car had good acceleration and braking,
and the slightly raked stance and upright ride provides good
visibility. Handling is not too shabby, and all functions operate
as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these
functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot
guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your
purchase.
A beautiful and powerful rebuilt power plant along with spectacular
paint make this Camaro worthy of your consideration. Add the RS
elements and SS badging, and you have an attention getting street
machine which retains its classic status among some of the most
iconic American cars. More than 34,000 SS models were built in '67,
but good luck finding, (or bankrolling), a real deal RS/SS. Here's
a way to eat your Camaro cake and have it too!
