1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS Tribute

Description

This 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS Tribute is a great looking first generation muscle car that's decked out in an outstanding color and wears the proper exterior features of the top tier specimens of the model during its time. It's also carrying a rumbling big block engine with plenty of power under the hood whose sheer displacement stands above anything offered during this classic's era.

The Marina Blue paint this Camaro now wears is a more vibrant take on its original shade and really looks nice in this setting. It's got a very smooth finish, with plenty of shine and as you circle the car you can see the care that not only went into bringing out its best, but also to properly pay homage to the prized Super Sport/Rally Sport-equipped Camaros that topped the model's status hierarchy in this era. The pair of broad white stripes running over the hood and deck lid really pop against their background, while up front the grille is in great condition and sports a central feature that prompted many a buyer to opt for the RS package back in the day - hidden headlights that not only sit properly aligned, but have been equipped with new electronics, so they open and close with precision. This '67 obviously benefitted from an exacting restoration, and you can see its door handles, mirrors, bumpers and badging all appear to have been recently replaced and the body lines from front to back and side to side are top notch.

In the same vein, a deluxe black vinyl interior now sits in place of the original. The restoration work inside the doors included not only the nicely accented front buckets and rear bench seat but also the door panels, headliner, carpeting, and steering wheel, all of which are at their best. The dash area is another strong feature, with a supple looking dash pad on top. The center console is nonetheless in great condition and offers a white-balled Hurst shifter - some welcome additional vintage style. Everything is also very solid as far as the trunk area is concerned - with no liner in place, you can get a clear view of the trunk floor, wheelhouses and inner fenders and all appear in fine condition.

Ably representing the sentiment that "there's no replacement for displacement" a 454 cubic inch V8 sits between the shock towers, armed with a Weiand intake manifold, an Edelbrock 4-barrel carb and an HEI ignition to extract plenty of output from its considerable size. It pairs with a 4-speed manual transmission that puts maximum control of all that power in the driver's hands while shifting very solidly. There are a number of recently replaced components also on board, including an aluminum radiator, master cylinder and brake booster, dual exhaust and a fresh suspension that affords a nice, straight-tracking ride on a set of ultra sharp 15" repro Camaro Rally wheels that are wrapped with BF Goodrich T/A radials. Both the featured power steering and power brakes are in top form, so this vintage Chevy navigates and stops easily. Below, the undercarriage is solid and straight.

With its big block power, precisely outfitted appearance and outstanding muscle car charisma, this 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS Tribute is a great find. Call today!
