info on painting the camaro....details details details!!!
« on: January 20, 2008, 11:25:55 PM »
I am getting closer to starting to paint parts of the car.  I am trying to get this thing back to original as possible.  I am looking for a book that tells me what came on the car (paint color etc..) for a 1967 RS convertible. 

Ex... hood hinges, engine bay, under neath the car, block, correct trunk splatter, I think you get the drift. 


any ideas.....?

thanks for the info in advance

Ah ha!... thanks for the tip Tom.  I have the '69 book version and loved it (just haven't read it in a while).  I am sure the '67 is just as good.

Jerry's 67-68 book is great!  Best source I've seen.  Wish Jerry would put in a component finishes page like the one in Hooper's Recognition Guide.  Hint! Hint!
