The first generation of Camero, unveiled at the 1966 Detroit Motor Show and one week later in Los Angeles, California, for the 1967 model year.
When asked what was a Camaro, the Chevrolet G.M. Pete Estes replied that it was a small vicous creature that eats Mustangs.
The car was built on a new rear wheel drive GM F-body platform as a 2 door coupe or convertible.
The Camaro's standard drive train was either a 230 cu in (3.8 L) straight-6 engine rated at 140 hp or a 327 cu in (5.4 L) (307 cu in (5.0 L) later in 1969) V8 engine, with a standard three-speed manual transmission. There were 8 (in 1967), 10 (in 1968), and 12 (in 1969) different engines available in 1967-1969 Camaros. There were several optional transmissions. A four-speed manual was available with any engine. The two-speed "Powerglide" automatic transmission was available all three years. The three-speed "Turbo Hydra-Matic 350" automatic became available starting in 1969. The optional automatic for SS396 cars was the Turbo 400 three-speed automatic
The RS was an appearance package that included hidden headlights, revised taillights with back-up lights under the rear bumper, RS badging, and exterior bright trim. It was available on any model.
The SS performance package consisted of a 350 cu in (5.7 L) or 396 cu in (6.5 L) V8s and chassis upgrades for better handling and to deal with the additional power. The SS featured non-functional air inlets on the hood, special striping, and SS badging.
The Z/28 performance package introduced in 1966 for the 1967 model year, as the brainchild of Vince Piggins, who conceived offering "virtually race-ready" Camaros for sale from ant Chevrolet dealership. It was designed (with further modifications) to compete in the SCCA Trans-Am Series. It included a solid-lifter 302 cu in (4.9 L) V8, 4-speed transmission, power disc brakes, and two wide "skunk" stripes down the hood and trunk lid. By 1968 the Z28 option was still available with the 302 cu in (4.9 L) small block producing 290 hpnbacked by Muncie four-speed with a new-for-69 standard Hurst shifter and connected to a 12-bolt rear axle with standard 3.73 gears
This car is powered by the slightly later 5733cc V8 engine available from December 1968 in the LM1 and L48producing either 255bhp or 295bhp.
