You are viewing an original, 1967 convertible Camaro with the rally sport package. It has the numbers-matching 327/210hp engine, mated to a Powerglide transmission. It's a great driver, start right up and runs great. It really just needs new paint to complete it.

I purchased the car in August, 1999 from a private owner in Orlando, Florida, where I lived at the time. I drove this car nearly every day to my job in Florida, which was just 2 miles from my home. I also drove it for pleasure and occasional cruise nights. In 2005, I moved to New Jersey, and the car has been garage kept and only driven a few times a summer since.

Immediately after buying the car, I had the engine completely rebuilt. I have put about 19,000 miles on the rebuilt engine since then. In the following years, I replaced or upgraded numerous parts in the engine bay as well as the interior and exterior. This included a new power convertible top as well as the related top and hydraulics. I kept virtually every receipt for parts ordered and work done on the car and can provide them to the buyer.

I made several upgrades to improve drivability and comfort, but always with an eye toward maintaining the stock appearance, while also keeping all original parts so that it could be returned to stock. I had a Vintage Air conditioning system professionally installed, along with original-style vents in the dash to maintain the stock appearance. The wheels are now 16-inch chrome by Wheel Vintiques, with the original style dog-dish caps for 1967. I added an Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor and intake manifold, Hedman headers, and a custom dual exhaust system with Dynomax mufflers (not too loud, just a nice, throaty rumble). In addition the car was lowered 2-inches with a thicker sway bar when the front-end was rebuilt.

As I said, I still have the original intake manifold, exhaust manifolds, 2-barrel carb, and snorkel air intake, which will be given to the winner of this auction. Also included is the convertible top boot (fits over the top when it is down), as well as a custom-fitted car cover, and the owners manual. The car is column shifted. The person I purchased this car from had plans to convert it to floor shifted and gave me an original console. I will pass this along to the next owner as well.

This is a great car that gets a lot of compliments. Except for the windshield wiper fluid pump, which I could never get to function right, everything on this car works, including the electric hideaway headlights. It does have some faults, mainly with the paint and body: There are spots caused by bubbling on the hood (see picture) and some dings and scratches, and paint fading on the trunk lid. I can tell there is body putty on the rear fenders and between the convertible top window and trunk lid. The front header panel has a dent in the nose: I have a replacement panel to be included with the sale.

There are tears on the driver side seat (see picture) and what looks to be the impression of a belt buckle on that same seat. The transmission has had a slight leak since the day I owned the car; every few months I add a quart of fluid. The drive selector on the column sometimes slips from D to L at stop lights. This started with the addition of the headers, which are up against a bracket that holds the transmission linkage. I believe when the linkage heats up it slips downward. The bracket will either need to be relocated or the headers removed to correct the problem. When the problem does occur, I simply push the shifter back to D and away I go. It does not happen on every drive, but I want to be honest.

I love this car, but with two small children I simply do not have the time for it anymore. Like I said it's a great car, and will provide hours of top-down fun to anyone who buys it. Thank you for considering it.

I want to make a clarification of my use of the phrase "numbers matching" to describe the engine. In 1967, the lower horsepower engines such as this one did not get a partial VIN code stamped on the block, so the numbers must be "matched" by date. My engine stamping indicates that it was manufactured in the fourth week of December (I'm assuming of 1966). Likewise, the cowl tag says the body was manufactured on December 22 (also, I'm assuming, of '66). So that is as close to a match as possible for this engine and car. I'm sure many Chevy and Camaro experts already know this, but I want to avoid any confusion or concern with the auction winner. Thanks.

2015 Chevy Colorado gets its GearOn before Chicago

Tue, Feb 10 2015

Complementing the Chevrolet Silverado Midnight Edition at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show is this, the 2015 Colorado GearOn Edition, which as the name might suggest, takes full advantage of the company's truck accessory catalog. Available on the volume LT trim and in both crew and extended cab varieties and with both the short and long-bed options, the GearOn Edition adds plenty of nifty extras designed to increase the truck's versatility and help accommodate bikes, kayaks and other outdoorsy items. The GearOn bars package, divider package and tie-down rings are supplemented an "EZ" lift and lower tailgate, side steps, gloss black 18-inch wheels, a body color grille, and blacked-out Chevy badges. And although it's not specifically called out in the attached press release, the paint on this special edition looks different than anything else in the truck's catalog. We dig it, especially with the black accents. Prices, meanwhile, start at $31,250, which is not even $1,200 more than a Colorado Extended Cab LT 4x4. We'll have more on the Colorado GearOn when it makes its debut later this week at the 2015 Chicago Auto Show, including live images to add to the pair of stocks distributed by Chevy. Until then, scroll down for the press release on the limited-edition truck. Chevy Colorado GearOn™ Edition Brings More Adventure Versatile accessories package maximizes cargo capability; enables more fun DETROIT – Chevrolet today introduced the 2015 Colorado GearOn™ Special Edition, which blends the capability of the all-new midsize pickup truck with the versatility of the GearOn accessory system – and additional popular features. It makes its public debut Feb. 13-22 at the Chicago Auto Show. The Colorado GearOn Special Edition goes on sale this spring with a starting price of $31,250. It's offered on LT models in extended or crew cab configurations, with the long or short cargo bed and available 4WD. "Chevrolet Colorado answers the call for customers who have passions of all types and the GearOn accessory system enables them to bring more adventure wherever they go," said Tony Johnson, Colorado marketing manager. "And with Colorado offering segment-leading efficiency and capabilities, it's a combination that maximizes adventure without compromise." The GearOn accessory system is designed for easy configuration with a multitude of mounting accessories for everything from bikes, kayaks, skis and stand-up paddle boards to a bed-mounted tent.

2022 Chevy Silverado HD gains Multi-Flex tailgate as an option

Mon, May 17 2021

GM is spreading the Multi-Pro Tailgate love around its truck lineup, and the Silverado HD is the latest pickup to gain the option. Just like the 2021 Silverado 1500, Chevy uses the “Multi-Flex” name for it in the HD, eschewing GMCÂ’s “Multi-Pro” branding for the bowtie vehicles. YouÂ’ll be able to option the tailgate on 2022 model year Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD models. ItÂ’ll be available optionally in every trim, so thereÂ’s no need to grab a more expensive trim to gain access to the trick tailgate — youÂ’re also not required to take it in higher trims. Functionality is the same as the standard Silverado and Sierra.  The primary gate opens and closes like any other tailgate out there. ThereÂ’s a primary gate load stopper that allows you to put the gate down and still keep things from flying out the back (it can also be arranged such that the load stopper is at a higher height by using the inner gateÂ’s stopper). The inner gate folds down perpendicular to the ground to allow closer access to the bed. A full-width step is available if you fold both “gates” down and pop out the inner panel. And lastly, the inner gate can be lowered to use it as a small work space. You can watch the short video above to get a quick run through of all the positions, or scroll through the gallery at the top of this post. Besides the tailgate, Chevy says the 2022 Silverado HD is gaining a new Greenstone Metallic exterior paint color. Other changes for 2022 were not detailed at this time, but Chevy says the trucks with this tailgate should be available sometime this summer. Related video:
