'67 4K Project from Indian River Chevrolet
 
Sweet combo here, and from a storied FL dealer....

Tag looks legit to me. Obviously this one needs a ton of work but will look amazing in its original trim.

Hey guys, pardon the novice question... monoleaf springs on a 12 bolt SS car?

Is that correct? I don't know much about '67s

Thanks

yup, the 67's were the most &quot;truck-like&quot; with their antiquated suspensions

68's &amp; 69's were WAY better DRIVING with the multi-leaf rears (on the optional V8's), the staggered rear shocks and the variable ratio power steering, they just DROVE so much better ...

Thats a great opinion but I think everyone knows that 68 was &amp; is the best year for Camaro.. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

Are there allot of one-offs on the 68 Camaro like the 68 Chevelle/Nova/Corvette?

I'm a sucker for the R/S option on any year Camaro but do like the &quot;Wing windows&quot; myself...seems that the 69 Camaro brings in the most $$$$$ but any 1st gen Camaro will do for me! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Theres no doubt 9's are the most popular. Followed by 7 then 8. Ive had all three and I love 7&amp;8's the most because of the body style. But for me the 8 is my favorite and yes I am biased but its has the best of all 3 IMO. When I sit in either the blue 67 or the green 68 I feel like Im getting ready for take off in a fighter jet. I never felt that way in my old 9.

67 SS350 Camaro was my first car. I'll always be a 67 guy. I do agree that multi leaf is better than mono.

I apologize, I didn't mean to ruffle any feathers here, I was only referencing the DRIVING &amp; HANDLING differences that the 67 had vs the &quot;improved&quot; 68 &amp; 69 versions


As you can tell from my pic, I chose the vastly superior driving and handling 70 Z28 because of the way it DROVE, I STILL LOVE the LOOKS of the 1st gens.

I sold my one previous owner 69 edura bumper F41 RS 4 speed DY convertible when I got married in order to give my wife a garage spot &amp; kept the 70 Z28.

Hind$ight $ay$ I $hould have kept the 69, but I didn't enjoy DRIVING of it as much as I did the 70 ... it all boils down to what each person enjoys from their vehicle.

Again, no malice intended, YMMV, IMHO, etc

One thing I know is an early vs late thing that the one piece side windows had &quot;Astro ventilation&quot; etched on them

Another was the V8 air cleaner for the factory air cars vs the non air cars having the snorkel pointed in a different direction

I was a 69 owner (over 75 of them) and only owned a half dozen 68's or so, so there may be more quirks I am not familiar with

Thee door hinges are completely different and 67's had non staggered shocks also

Some changes: http://www.camaros.org/geninfo.shtml#MidyearChanges
It's nothing like the changes on 68 Vettes....
