I know of an early built one in West Virginia. Cowl tag says 4P but it's P Plate designates the L78 engine. Been setting for years in a garage. Going to fix it up day.

I think the 67 L78's in general and the 67 L78 verts in particular just don't get the recognition they deserve, these cars are some of the rarest GM high performance cars ever built. Fewer than 5% equals 56 cars originally produced with less than 10 known today.

67 Z28's are more valued in the small block world, and there are many more 67 Z's than 67 L78 verts.

But they were the highest horsepower Camaro produced in 67. How many of the known cars have born with engines?

It must have been added as the T-400 was not available in 1967 with a L-78.
