1967 Chevrolet Camaro '396ci' Coupe (LHD)

Chevrolet's entry into the pony car market created by the Mustang arrived as a 1967 model, the new Camaro proving a more than worthy rival for the more established Ford and rapidly captured a sizeable portion of the youth market. The Camaro was marketed with a wide variety of engine options, from the mild - the base engine was a six-cylinder developing a scant 140bhp - to the wild, with the 420bhp SS 396 and race-bred Z-28 models capturing most of the limelight. The Camaro looked fantastic, with clean styling under the direction of Bill Mitchell, who envisioned a four-seater Corvette, and the coke-bottle lines foreshadowed the Stingray of 1968. Offered in both coupe and convertible form, the first-generation Camaro came with a huge options list allowing the customer to create anything from a luxury cruiser to a drag strip bruiser. Mark Donohue and Roger Penske teamed up to run the Camaro Z-28s in Trans-Am during 1967 with great success and the new model was also honoured as the Indianapolis 500 pace car that year. With the burgeoning interest in muscle cars around the world, an early big-block Camaro like the car on offer here is a desirable collector's item and an excellent investment for the future.
