Very Sharp 1st Gen, Great Colors, Strong 350 V8, 4 Speed Manual, Drives Great!

Description

Early Camaros will always be in demand. The trick is finding one that's both affordable and usable, a feat easier said than done. Fortunately, there are still cool cars like this 1967 Chevrolet Camaro SS Tribute out there, a brilliant combination of style and performance at a decent price. We always like to see traditional colors, and while this one was originally a more subdued shade, it's been repainted in a vibrant coat of Blue Metallic. Blue... always looks great on early Camaros, especially with black stripes, and this F-body is a handsome, straight car with a super paint job that grabs your attention. It doesn't appear to have ever been rusty or damaged, and I'd bet lunch that it still carries all its original sheetmetal, simply because of how well it all fits together. The paint job is in great order and is probably just about right if you want to drive it; cars nicer than this usually end up in a trailer and that's just no fun. Bumble bee stripes and an SS-style hood were added during the refresh and you can't argue with the high-performance look. Out back there's a proper ducktail spoiler, a chin spoiler up front, and all the usual "SS" and "Camaro" badges are in their factory locations. It's not like anyone won't know what it is, right? All the chrome and stainless is brand new and shine brightly up against the blue finish, giving the car a flashy look deserving of second looks everywhere it goes. Nothing works better than a black interior in your early Camaro, and this one sports a pleasing array of new stock components, with a few thoughtful upgrades as well. The front seats are new covers over the original frames, and it appears that the back seat was re-covered at the same time, so it all has a complete, all-of-a-piece look and feel. Nice door panels, fresh carpets, and a taut headliner also add to the fresh feeling inside, while a big, chrome Hurst shifter for the 4-speed manual underneath delivers shifts that feel like a bolt-action rifle. The original gauges are augmented by auxiliary oil and temperature gauges under the dash and a modern retro-sound AM/FM/AUX radio has been fitted in the original location. Pop the trunk and you'll find plenty of space fitted with a reproduction mat that's ready to go on long cruises. The engine bay holds a nicely detailed 350 cubic inch V8 motor with matching blue paint, a chrome air cleaner, matching valve covers, and a few other dress-up items. For performance, an Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold and 4-barrel Holley carburetor, double hump heads, and a set of long-tube headers were installed, and the engine runs beautifully. Underneath there's a solid, clean chassis, a quick-shifting 4-speed manual transmission, and a heavy-duty 12-bolt rear with highway-friendly gears inside. That dual 3-inch Flowmaster exhaust system sounds wicked and turns down just before the rear axle, so if you want to scare the neighbors, this set-up will do the trick. Shiny and deep-lipped, the chrome Foose wheels fit great and carry staggered 225/35/18 front and 275/35/18 rear performance radials that accentuate the stance perfectly. This is a sharp early Camaro with no needs, in a great color combination, with a strong small block, and with a manual transmission. What could be better? Call today.
