1967 Chevrolet Camaro Coupe 5-Speed "SS Tribute"

Description

Designed to compete against the Ford Mustang, the Chevrolet Camaro became a muscle car icon. Needing a name starting with “C,” Chevrolet derived “Camaro” from a French word for “friend.” First launched in 1967, the new Camaro was available with a variety of engine opinions, from the entry-level inline-six all the way up to the potent 396 cu-in V8. Not only a straight-line performer, but the new Camaro was also competitive in the SCCA Trans-Am series which spawned distinctive models offering turn-key sports car performance.

This 1967 Camaro Coupe was restored in 2015, repainted only one time in the original Code F Marina Blue paint. It looks quite factory stock, but it’s powered by a bored 454 Big Block backed by a Tremec five-speed overdrive manual transmission. Inside is a Dakota Digital instrument panel, Classic Auto air conditioning, tilt steering wheel, and more. Power front disc brakes and Hotchkis Sport Suspension upgrades enhance the driving experience. This Camaro is downright unfriendly — at least to local Mustangs.
