1967 camaro restoration

[turbojet427]

I am going to post some pictures of my project and if there is some interest I'll post more. The car is a 1967 SS 396/325 4sp posi car with all matching #'s and date coded parts. The car also retains its original sheetmetal. The car is loaded with documentation including GM of Canada paperwork from George Zapora. The car wasn't quite what I wanted at the time, but it was too good of a car to let go. Now i love it. Enjoy.

I always liked the '67 BB Camaro because of that great 396 emblem on the fenders. It mezmerized me from an early age and when I was able to finally buy a '67 BB Camaro I jumped at the chance. Good luck with yours Matthew and post more pics!

Your Camaro looks great! Is it done yet? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

Joey Heatherton's father, Ray Heatherton was NY channel 11's Merry Mailman for 20 years. Joey would sing the theme song - "Here comes the Merry Mailman "
When I was a kid this was a must see program - but then again there were only 6 channels!

Hey Ken, I was trying to keep it clean around here! Jeez!

Joey was a fox though. I remember her "Ace is the place" TV commercials back in the 80s.

Thanks for the positive comments and no the car isn't done yet. I have to finish the front sheetmetal and wiring. Another buff and install the trim. It is crowded in the garage during winter, so I may not finish until spring. I have a ton of picutres if there is anything specific someone would want to see let me know.

[Xplantdad]

When you get it finished...why don't you submit it to me for members Rides!

[turbojet427]

I will do that thanks.

[Xplantdad]

http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif Good deal!

[TXSS]

Beautiful....and the car doesn't look bad either. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

[MosportGreen66]

excellent work. keep it up!

[allcamaro]

Very very nice and love the firewall cut, thank you for not using tape to break the firewall overspray. I think a good restoration is not only for the eyes but for the touch.

[turbojet427]

Thanks. This is the first time my dad and I have done a car this way. Usually we are hot rodding them instead of restoring them. It does take the right touch and attention to detail to do a restoration right. Just a little slacking can cause a restoration to look poor quickly.
