I just purchased my 2nd 1967 Camaro. She is on transport on the way to Texas and be here hopefully end of next week, weather permitting. My first was a basket case I drove with a hope and a prayer I could get out of the driveway every time I started it up 35 years ago, but it was mine! Today I closed the deal from an online dealer after 5 months of going back and forth weeding through fake website, Facebook market scams, and seeing cars that were nowhere close to being a original 67 any longer.. It has about 95% of what I tried to restore my first 67 and a divorce got in the way and was sold.
My mother had a 67-SS350 butternut yellow when I was about 5 years old and all I have is a single color Polaroid of me hanging out the window. I always wanted to build the 67 Camaro I could never afford or find in my 20s with my 1st car. The one I just bought came pretty close and already done. A few things are not correct, and it's my hope to replace with correct dated parts. I was just sent a picture of the Cowl Tag as is as follows.

Look forward to relearning the Camaro and having fun working on a car again.
