Vehicle Description
1967 Chevrolet Camaro SS 350 Hardtop
The 1967 Camaro appeared on the scene and the General instantly
became a big player in the pony car wars. The Camaro had gotten
ahead of the curve and was now a leader in the style department
because the car already looked like a car from the early 70's even
though that era was still 4 years in the future in October 1966.
The 1967 Camaro was the star attraction when it debuted in the fall
of 1966 and it gave the General an instant classic in the pony car
battle.
For consignment, a 1967 Chevrolet Camaro SS 350 hardtop showing
33,206 miles, but the true miles are unknown. This car received a
frame off restoration in 2018. We see our share of clones at the
mall, but this is a real deal SS and while not ultra rare, they
represent only about 15% of total Camaro production in 1967.
Exterior
Dressed up for a night out on the town, this pony car wears two
stage Tuxedo Black and if we left it there, that would be cool. But
of course, nose stripes call out the SS and in fact, surround the
emblem on the fender. In front of it, a well designed grille,
inboard marker lights, and round headlights underlined by a
slightly pointed chrome bumper. This configuration would be
different in each of the first gen Camaros of course and so is a
one year design. The tail lights are shared with the base Camaros
of '67, showing a two part lens that includes the reverse white,
underscored by a straight bumper and topped by a rear spoiler.
17-inch Torque Thrust wheels carry staggered sized ZR rated tires
for a bit of extra sportiness and providing the car with a nicely
aggressive stance. The metalwork and black paint on the original
sheet metal is spectacular and we could not find any exterior
flaws.
Interior
The cleanliness trend continues the inside where black molded door
panels with thin silver trim top a black carpeted kick panel, part
of the Z23 Decor Group package, and both doors prompt adoring nods
from onlookers. Factory deluxe bucket seats feature an encircling
strip of white vinyl surrounded by patterned black and the fronts
along with the backseats are immaculate. That doesn't change for
the steering wheel with reflective spokes and a glossy black rim,
framing the compact instrument cluster flanked by metal knobs and a
vent. Vents also top the center stack which contains the fan
levers, AM radio, and triple gauge pod. A gleaming shaft of the
tall Hurst shifter grabs your eye just before you grab the black
ball knob and the plastic base of the center console is one of the
nicest we've seen in a while, right out of the Chevy catalog. Black
loop carpet below, vintage like rubber mats, a high and tight
headliner, and a clean and barren trunk round out this show car's
interior quality.
Drivetrain
But wait, there's more, as Ron Popeil used to say. How about a show
worthy engine bay? Sure thing, fellas! Here we have a period
correct 350ci V8, (correct casting number and stamping code), with
headers and a 4-barrel carburetor. It slices, dices, and does away
with the competition. Want to set that engine into motion? We have
you covered with a circa 1968 Muncie M20 4-speed manual sending
power to the 12 bolt rear axle with 3.07 conventional gears. If you
order today, we'll throw in the power drum brakes on all four
wheels!
Undercarriage
The seven year restoration has held up well and the underside is
clean as a whistle. Oh sure, some surface rust has surfaced on a
few bolts but that's about it. There's some oil sling on the
exhaust near the U-joint, and a drop or two on the pan, but that
wouldn't stop us from eating off this underside. The dual exhaust
travels through stock style mufflers and exits cleanly through
bevel cut steel ends. Suspension consists of coil springs in front
and leaf springs in back.
Drive-Ability
The 350 bellows like the healthy V8 it is, and we throw the Hurst
into first and spin this black beauty onto the test loop. We have
plenty of power underfoot, a fine clutch, straight tracking and
impressive handling thanks to the SS's factory improved package. We
note the heater blower is not working but all other functional
items on this nicely restored and well sorted car 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.
We think the crowd at Camaro Nationals, which meets here in
Morgantown on July 18thand 19th, is going to be impressed with this
one! This Tuxedo Black SS checks all the boxes and is more than
show ready. Essentially, a turnkey trophy transporter. Do not count
too many sheep before you make the call on this one. It's sharper
than a Ginsu knife, more fun than Mr. Microphone at parties, and
more exciting than a pocket fisherman.
