Originality / Re: Correct 67 bumble bee stripe color

Boy do I feel foolish now.  I looked at that chart once before but somehow I didn't see the stripe designation behind it.  It would be white.  Also, it does have the original black vinyl top in excellent condition.  Thanks for the help!

Originality / Correct 67 bumble bee stripe color

« on: February 09, 2014, 08:33:25 PM »

Hello everyone.  I'm new to this site trying to get as much info as possible to get my 67 Camaro up to as original as possible.  So, far it is very close to being a matching numbers car, with a few exceptions.  Some day in the far future, I would like to have this repainted, it is still the original paint, somewhat faded Madiera Maroon but at one time the front was resprayed due to a small collision and the nose stripe was not repainted.  I don't know what the nose stripe color should be as I have seen them in either the white or black online.  I haven't found anything showing the original color bumble bee stripe. .  It is a 67 RS/SS, Madiera Maroon, vinal top 396/325 hp. with 3 speed auto.  Also, I would probably just find the (stick on) stripes for now, then when I repaint it have the original stripes painted.  Can anyone help me?

Sorry!  The car was assembled the third week of March, 1967.

I have a 67 396/325 hp. BB, and auto transmission, and do not have engine lift hooks or brackets.  I do not believe this engine has ever been out of the car.  Hope this helps you.   This is a LOS built engine.

Maintenance / Re: Trouble Shooting the Low Fuel light

« on: February 09, 2014, 07:30:44 PM »

Don't know if this helps you but I had a problem with the low fuel light on my 67 Camaro not coming on.   After closer inspection, I  found out someone plugged in the low fuel light socket behind the dash wrong, it had burned out the printed circuit behind the dash, even tho it was in the right hole/location.   On mine, the yellow wire (metal light socket) plugs into the dash FIRST, (to ground the light) THEN, install the printed circuit, pulling the yellow wire lead through the hole in the printed circuit, then connect the wire.  If you plug it into the printed circuit, after the printed circuit is already installed, it will ground out the printed circuit and burn it.   My Camaro was made in the 3rd week of March 1967.  RS/SS 396 with 3 speed auto.  Maybe there are variations.    Hope this helps you or someone.
