    On "My Car Story" we're at the Wisconsin State Fair Park in West Allis WI on 2-20-20 at the World of Wheels car show.
    We're looking at a 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS SS in Black Paint. The car is equipped with a 350 CI V8 engine.
    The car's Owner is Gerry Bailey. Gerry’s had this car since 2008. Gerry shares his wife wanted to name this car. He said, ‘What do you think the name for the car should be?” She said the “Midnight Special”. He said, “That’s a great name because it’s black.” She said, “No, it’s because for 8 months restoring it, you were up until midnight working on it.”

    A fantastic restoration! I bought a 1967 Camaro in 1969 for $1,400. It was white over red with a black bumblebee stripe and had a 327 and powerglide. That powerglide was the reason I got rid of it, and I bought a new 1971 Camaro 350 4-speed that stickered at $3,500 back then. Car prices sure have changed! This featured Camaro is the way we dreamed a car should be, but most were not that highly optioned back then. This one is just the PERFECT 1967 Camaro. Another great car story, Lou. Thanks so much!

    Yeah.. I had a 67 RS/SS 350 four speed with disc brakes. First year 350... first year Camaro. first year disc brakes. Gold with a black vinyl top. We drove it for 5 years at least... one trip from the bay area California to canada. It actually got good mileage... something like 18 if you kept your foot out of it.

    Wow. That is a brilliant looking car!! My mother got a 68 RS conv when it was about 2 years old. Always liked the hardtops better and the RS option really made these cars. I only wish we could have kept hers. The interior is really special. I have never seen that option before. I always wanted to change her light covers to electric. They went vacuum in 68. Shame on them. The name is perfect.

      Resonators under the car then the transverse muffler. The resonators changed the exhaust frequency a little to eliminate drone, the muffler controlled the actual volume. It was a nice easy to live with system that still sounded good.

    Nicest, best restored ‘67 SS/RS 350 I’ve seen. Also, I never knew about that Screwdriver with the Spare, (tire) the rear seat Armrest option, Redlines Only and often wondered if ‘67 was the first year for the 350 as there was this local L-79 ‘67 Chevelle that guys thought had to be a 327, but quietly blew the doors off of local “Fomoco/Mopar Heroes”. Thanks for speaking with these owners, listening to all of the little details Lou.

    I almost bought that identical car back in '72, but chose the '70 Roadrunner instead and the rest is history. That is an incredible car with an incredible restoration. What I notice and admire the most over my 50 yrs in the hobby is how guys like Jerry closes his doors, hood, and trunk lid with some care, not as a chore. It's called 'pride of ownership'. Take note all you door slammers out there ! Trash what you own or cherish it, it is a choice. Thanks for the great tour as always Lou.

    What a beautiful Camaro! There are so many ‘finishing touches’ on this like you said with the rear spoiler; redline tires, bumblebee front stripe, rally wheels, etc. And this is the perfect color combo as well. Thanks Lou for a great spring morning treat!

    • @67L48
      @67L48 2 роки тому +1

      I love the rear spoiler, too, but that wasn't a factory option in 1967. So, for an otherwise correct car, that is incorrect ... and this comes from a guy who has an otherwise #s matching Camaro that has a trunk lid with the rear spoiler (and the original trunk lid was tossed into a landfill back in the 1980s). Ugh.
      I wasn't sure in the video if this car had disc brakes. In 1967, SS 350 had some of the cheapest, crappiest looking wheels of all time ... rally wheels were only available with the rare disc brake upgrade. Again, my car wears rally wheels, but they're not correct on my car.
      Things like the chrome outlines of the pedals at 6:09 are also nice touches that were not original to this car. Those would have been part of the interior decor group, which would be indicated by 3S on the cowl tag. This car doesn't have factory air, but the heater controls at 6:39 are for a car with factory air. The seatbelts are the deluxe style, but incorrect to this car ... you'd see a 5Y on the cowl tag.
      Finally, the cowl tag shows either 03C or 05C ... can't be sure which. Either way, that means that this car was built during the 3rd week of either March or May of 1967. By that time, the 396 option had come out and the SS-350 badging was no longer being used. So, the grille at 1:40, for example, should just have an SS badge in it ... that's how it would have come from the factory. Only early SS 350 cars had the SS 350 badging. Once the 396s came out mid-year, then they all just got generic SS badging (and there never was any SS 396 specific badging on the Camaro).
      I love this car, but it's a shame that they didn't do enough to make it factory correct. In my mind, you do either one of two things with these cars: you go custom (build the car you want to build) or you stay true to what the car originally was. In this case, they seemed to do the latter, but then strayed by adding some cool factory options that were never part of this particular car.

    Nice car and restoration. Unusual to see a three speed SS 350 car, most were PG or 4spd cars. I have owned a 1967 RS/SS350 conv. bolero red Camaro since 1988. I did a frame many years back when parts were difficult to find. My Mother ordered a 1969 RS Camaro conv new when I was a teen. I have been around these cars since they were new. They are beautiful as this one is. If you look at the bottom left corner of the cowl tag, 4P denotes a true SS350 car. Thanks Lou.

      You are 100% correct. The famed Chevy 350 engine was designed specifically for the Camaro launch. Obviously, it made its way into other platforms over the years, but its really odd that the Camraro-350 SB linkage seemed to have been forgotten over time.

      Vert true, Camaro only in 67 and then for 68 they added the Nova and then for 69 the Corvette and the rest of the Chevrolet fleet.

    As always great job Lou. Beautiful Camaro. The 3 speed (2B on the trim tag) in a SS is quite rare. It should be noted that spoilers were not available until 68.
