Where did all the 67 Camaros go?

[Zedder]

I’ve been watching the forums and ebay pretty closely lately and I can’t remember the last time I saw a really nice 67 Camaro for sale. Yes, the same 2 or 3 67 Z’s are on eBay every month, but it seems like the 67’s have dried up!

[JoeC]

did you try Phelps ? :)

[smallblockhero]

theres a nice unrestored straight 6 car by me... pretty neat but slightly over priced IMO..

[Zedder]

Wouldn't it be awesome to go back in time!

[Zedder]

Gotta love that ad...guy posts 5 exterior pics and then says "come look at it, not answering a million questions". At least the exterior looks clean!

[big gear head]

I see a lot of them on facebook.

What pages are you looking at?

[Steve Shauger]

I had mine out last night. Nothing like 456's , manual steering and manual drum brakes to get the juices flowing! This car runs unbelievable, so docile, yet put your foot into it and hold... What a rush!!!

Beautiful '67 Steve. Your brakes and steering are the same set up as my '68. One of the guys from our car club called my car, "A Man's Car" with all the mechanicals and no power, lol.

the interior is just as nice... the guys been getting a ton of tire kickers for a couple months. so he changed the ad.

Got my 67 out couple sundays ago n took the grandkids for spin. They love it when I bang second gear n bark the tires. We’ve had a cool wet spring n not had chance to get out much. Kinda lost interest in the car somewhat, been riding quite a bit last couple years.

[Zedder]

Thanks for the links! And for rubbing it in Steve! Love that car ��

If you really lose interest Richard, don’t hesitate to let me know! I’ve been polishing my bikes rather than riding due to all the rain we’ve had this week!

[GrumpyJeff]

I've owned my 67 for 31 years this month, And I've probably had it out more this spring than the last 10 years combined thanks to this Covid time off .

[marxjunk]

are ya watching craigslist or facebook market place..i see more 67s than 8s and suddenly theres 69s all over the place..i guess people are running out of money and selling projects around here in the Kansas City area

[Zedder]

Watching ebay, BAT, Facebook, Kijiji, Hemmings, Autotrader

Love the red stripes! :beers:

[markjohnson]

That high-waisted 1967 pinstripe really does it for me & when it’s combined with those big, iconic “396” crossed flags on the front fenders . . . well, I’ll just hand my checkbook over!

[luzl78]

Love the red stripes....take off the spoiler.

[1967 4K]

Wasn’t the spoiler a dealer install requested by the original owner?

[danachevroletfor1967]

My '67 RS/SS. I'm not planning on selling it at this point in time.

[Zedder]

Beautiful car Dana...please post more pics and details!

[Steve Shauger]

Regrettably the original owner had dealer install spoiler. Amazingly the paint is a perfect match, and it's truly part of the cars history from day one.:3gears:

[1967 4K]

Dana, Is the color of your car Emerald turquoise?

[Zedder]

Looks like a Tahoe to me Richard

[427TJ]

Gonna get this one out today.

[danachevroletfor1967]

Beautiful car Dana...please post more pics and details!

Thank you Mark. Here are the only other pics I have. Let me know if you want more, and I'll try to get them. Unfortunately I don't know almost anything about the car's previous history. I bought it from the 3rd owner who did a frame off restoration. He thought the second owner had lived in Reading, PA. The engine, trans, and rear end are all original and have been rebuilt. The interior is all original except for the carpet and headliner. It's Tahoe Turquoise with a black standard interior. The Powerglide is floor mounted in a console; 3:31 posi rear. It has what I've been told anyway are relatively rare options: outside remote mirror, rear window defogger, 8 track, power windows, and front seat head restraints. It also has a dealer installed tissue dispenser or holder that mounts on the bottom of the dash right below the glove box.
The 3 things I wish it had are disc brakes, deluxe interior, and gauges instead of the 8 track. Oh well, I still like it.

[danachevroletfor1967]

It's Tahoe Turquoise.

[Zedder]

Still looks great TJ! I was just looking at pics of your car that I got from the previous owner in the late 90’s while I was cleaning out some files the other day!

[Zedder]

Thanks Dana! Yes, you have some great options on that car. I usually see white tops with Tahoe, but I love the black top and headrest seats! I had a Tahoe RS when I was 19 and my brother had a Tahoe SS clone. It’s a beautiful color.

[danachevroletfor1967]

Yes, I really love that color too. I have wondered if getting the black vinyl top automatically made the stripes black also or would my car have come originally with white stripes? My car doesn't have them now after the repaint, but also the pinstripes that would have come as part of the RS package; would they have been white? Could my car have originally come with black bumble bee stripe and black pinstripes if it was ordered that way in order to match the vinyl top?

[Chuck_Burg]

Love this thread! I'm restoring one now. You can check my build progress in the Chevrolet section. Day 2 67

Yes, black top, nose and pin stripes would be correct.

I’ve been following along...great car!

[6t7 camaro]

Mark, I believe the only color stripes available with Tahoe Turquoise were white, regardless of vinyl top. According to MacNeish’s books each primary color was assigned a stripe color. Tahoe Turquoise was white. The only exception was Marina Blue and Bolero Red. Both of those came with white stripes unless a black vinyl top was ordered and then the stripes changed to black.

[Zedder]

You could very well be right. We have two local Tahoe cars with black tops and stripes...one RS and one RS SS, but both have been restored and maybe the owners changed the stripes. I’ve forgotten a lot of the details that I used to know about these cars, so I certainly stand to be corrected! I’m sure Jon or Kurt will weigh in...

But for what it’s worth...I do like the black stripes even if they are incorrect!

I think you are right based on this pic of what is claimed to be original paint. Thanks for catching my mistake!

[6t7 camaro]

Just repeating what I’ve read. By no means do I make any claims of knowing everything. I do love that color though. Steve’s car, Dana’s car, and the picture you just posted are all beautiful examples.

[Zedder]

Just ordered this personalized plate. Shocked it was still available!

[6t7 camaro]

Mark, did you get another 67?

[Zedder]

I’ll let you know in a couple of hours...one final thing to check :)

[6t7 camaro]

Good luck! I hope it all checks out. If it does, details tomorrow?

[300deluxe]

All the 67's are sitting in garages as the owners are playing with their phones and watching the Dumb Box "TV". Get out and drive em....show the youth a cool car. Kids dig em! MOst people dig em!

[Zedder]

Good luck! I hope it all checks out. If it does, details tomorrow?

Deposit sent. We’ll finalize tomorrow!

Dana, my old ‘67 survivor had a black vinyl top and still wore it’s factory Tahoe Turquoise paint... with a factory white nose stripe and white pinstripes. Hope that helps.

Off the grid (Web) owner. Great Friend. We used to Cruse in the early 80's in my 68 his 67 was in a million pieces. Piston & Rudder Auto mag find.

I sure hope to help get it back on the road someday.

JIM

(* At very least it has been stored well, as in OK, Mice have done a heck of a job on it)

[Zedder]

Very cool! I think your friend called me and told me about his car in the late 90’s. I have the info in a file upstairs.

[danachevroletfor1967]

Thanks guys for all your pics of '67 Camaros. Congrats Mark for a soon to be new '67 for you; be sure to post some pics.

[Zedder]

I agree Mario...thanks to all for the pics!

I’ll post more once the balance is paid, but here is a teaser :). Super excited about a new car and a new car buddy in the current owner.

[Xplantdad]

[6t7 camaro]

Congrats Mark! When do you take possession?

[Zedder]

Thanks Dave. It has to ship up here, so my guess is 3-4 weeks. I’m just filling in the shipping docs now. Can’t wait!

[Zedder]

That teaser shot looks amazing!

Thanks Chuck...it is a very nice car! I know the fellow who restored it, so that makes doing a long distance deal a little easier.

[danachevroletfor1967]

Boy, that looks like she's a beauty.

[Zedder]

Thanks Mario...money still hasn’t cleared, so here is another teaser...

[169indy]

Sweet Snow Blower

[Zedder]

Tried unsuccessfully to get the matching snow blower thrown in!

[big gear head]

There was a very nice looking '67 RS/SS 396 4 speed Camaro on facebook for sale today, but it might have already sold. I can't find it now.

[Keith Seymore]

Love the red stripes....take off the spoiler.

...but you can leave your hat on.

;)

[6t7 camaro]

Mark, I know this car and it’s former owner/restorer. He has and has had some really nice Camaros over the years.

[Zedder]

Dave, what took you so long? :)

[6t7 camaro]

You did good Mark. That’s a really nice car.

[Zedder]
