The Most Significant First Gen Firebirds & Camaros
 
OK, so as many have surmised, our Big special feature display will honor the 50th Anniversary of the launch of the Camaro and Firebird for the upcoming Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals show, November 18-19, 2017. This special display will highlight the <span style="font-style: italic">most significant </span>1967-1969 General Motors High Performance F-Bodies.

We have several confirmed, including the very first ZL1 and one of the eight Trans Am convertibles to name a few.

We will have 12-13 67-69 Firebirds on the right, and 12-13 67-69 Camaro's on the left.

Please keep in mind that this display is for the<span style="font-style: italic"> best of the best</span>, the most <span style="font-style: italic">historical of the historical</span> and the <span style="font-style: italic">hottest of the hot</span>. The display will include factory stock and race variations, and each and every one will be highly documented and real.

I mentioned a couple of &quot;no brainers&quot; that will be joining us, but would love to hear what you consider the most significant. I would also appreciate any leads or contact information for owners of significant cars that suit this criteria.

As you can imagine, we could easily fill the show with first Gen Camaro's and of course, we love them, but as always, we will limit the amount of similar cars regardless of make or model to maintain the balance that we strive for every year. (I turned away over 30 prime first Gen Camaro's last year!)

So tell us...what do you consider the<span style="font-style: italic"> most significant </span>Performance Camaro's and Firebirds for the 1967-1969 period and what would you like to see at MCACN 2017?

<span style="font-style: italic">Yes...planning for MCACN never stops and as always, we welcome your thoughts and suggestions!</span>

Thanks;

Bashton

The red/red 67 SS/350 serial # 0000001 that was in Hot Rod Magazine and used by several California manufacturers to build after market parts for the Camaro. This was the first Camaro that was wrote about in the magazines and was featured in several Hot Rod issues in a build up series with different modifications.

I believe Vic Edelbrock may own it today.

I think a Mark Donohue TransAm Camaro would certainly be one to have. I don't which ones survive or are available. I know you had Grumpy's Toy this year, but a first year Pro Stock would certainly be significant.
