I have a newly acquired 1967 Camaro and have decoded the data plate but need some clarification on what I have here. I do NOT have the original engine, transmission or differential and the car is in a million pieces and on a dolly. No drivetrain but most everything/body and interior parts are in boxes...
The firewall does NOT have the Muncie hole and therefore suggests to me it was likely a Saginaw, it has the proper floor shift cutout with support plate and the floor shift column.
I do not note the passenger rear seat area radius rod support plate in all of the parts however the factory nut insert is on the frame rail and the holes for the plate at the floorboard are present.
I have boxes of parts, confirmed as much as I know to do with CRG help and am not sure EXACTLY what I have here. I am of the old school knowledge group
and have always known the 4P to designate SS350 as is on one of my other Camaro's. Of course that car has all original drive train and is a matching numbers SS350 car easily confirmed a true SS350 per it's Data plate decode etc.
Do I have a 1967 Rally sport 4 speed L30 M20 car and not a RS SS350 car? Is the RS L30 M20 car of any significance? Obviously non matching numbers drive train has a major impact on value, but I still want to know what I have here if possible to confirm.
I have evidence and all of the Z22 parts and mounting location holes on the fenders, fender wells and doors etc. The 4 speed pedals, Z bar and the bracket on the sub frame are still mounted and data plate confirms 4 speed and the radius rod mount holes and factory nut insert is present and intact.
There are all of the corresponding mounting holes for the Z21 trim items having been on the car, the front and rear wheel moldings and the drip rail moldings as well as the factory original trim items with the boxes of parts but no 3K on data plate to designate the Z21 trim group.
Please do not keyboard commando me, I have NEVER joined a forum or posted anything so forgive any protocol errors.
Great to gain more knowledge and have a place to correspond with like minded first gen Camao lovers!
Thanks for any help with my fact finding mission
