1967 CHEVROLET CAMARO STREET FIGHTER

Few cars hold a reputation quite like the classic 1967 Chevrolet Camaro. Whether you prefer imports or domestics, it’s hard not to love the aggressive body lines of this vehicle, especially one like this Street Fighter Camaro.

Owned by Team Speed member Totem, he recently finished this long time project car mid way through 2011, and the end result is simply incredible. The entire exterior is sporting a flat black paint job with gloss black and carbon fibers accents, all of which is contrasted by bright red 14 inch Willwood brake calipers. This beast has been outfitted with a Vengeance Racing built Forged 427 LS7.

Pontiac's intermediate line was restyled again for 1966, gaining more curvaceous styling with kicked-up rear fender lines for a "Coke-bottle" look, and a slightly "tunneled" backlight. The tail light featured a rare louvered cover, only seen on the GTO. Overall length grew only fractionally, to 206.4 in (5,243 mm), still on a 115 in (2,921 mm) wheelbase, while width expanded to 74.4 in (1,890 mm). Rear track increased one inch (2.5 cm). Overall weight remained about the same.

The GTO became a separate model series, rather than an optional performance package, with unique grille and tail lights, available as a pillared sports coupe, a hardtop (without B-pillars), or a convertible. Also an automotive industry first, plastic front grilles replaced the pot metal and aluminum versions seen on earlier years.

 New Strato bucket seats were introduced with higher and thinner seat backs and contoured cushions for added comfort and adjustable headrests were introduced as a new option.[4] The instrument panel was redesigned and more integrated than in previous years with the ignition switch moved from the far left of the dash to the right of the steering wheel. Four pod instruments continued, and the GTO's dash was highlighted by walnut veneer trim.

Engine choices remained the same as the previous year. A new engine was offered that saw few takers: the XS option consisted of a factory Ram Air set up with a new 744 high lift cam. Approximately 35 factory installed Ram Air packages are believed to have been built, though 300 dealership installed Ram Air packages are estimated to have been ordered. On paper, the package was said to produce the same 360 hp (270 kW) as the non-Ram Air, Tri Power car.

Sales increased to 96,946, the highest production figure for all GTO years. Although Pontiac had strenuously promoted the GTO in advertising as the "GTO Tiger," it had become known in the youth market as the "Goat."

1969 Camaro Z/28

The color of the exterior, Garnet Red, signifies that this Z/28 is a true jewel.  The black Rally stripes are a great compliment to the body color, match the interior, and broadcast that this is a serious Z/28.

Equipped with a serious 302, the signature mechanical sounds of the legendary Z/28 exhaust is handled by a system that combines to the dual-resonator after the muffler, still mounted in the stock location.

All that power is channeled to a correct 12-bolt rear end, with the engineered-for-Z/28 suspension consisting of sway bar, four-leaf rear springs, specific shocks, and front disc brakes.

All gauges, positioned in the correct factory saw-tooth arrangement and located in the console between the bucket seats, are fully operational.

Z/28’s of the era helped set the long-term desire for the Code Y11 Rally Wheels, which are the rolling stock for this part of the timeless design. These, with GM caps and rings, are wrapped with period-correct raised white letter bias ply Firestone Wide Ovals.

Enduring design, performance suspension, high-performance small block, rapid shifter.

This great Garnet machine should be the next jewel to add to your collection…
