Title: 1968 Camaro emblems question (Rally Sport)
Post by: DonSTP on August 07, 2006, 10:52:03 PM
Is the "rally sport" emblems for 1968 Camaros lower case or upper case?  I was at a car show this past weekend and someone came by my car saying that the emblems were incorrect.  I've attached a picture.

He also said my grille and gas cap were incorrect, as they too are lower case. 

I have a 68 RS.

Thanks,
Don

Probably a FORD Guy! I guess he doesn't have a current parts catalog from any of the hundreds of after market suppliers either. 67's and 68's are all lower case. He must of been thinking of a 69?? And then 69's don't even have an exposed gas cap. Best to let those guys just talk. P.S. Nice looking car too!

69 "rallysport" fender emblems are also all lower case.  Who knows which emblems he was thinking of.

Just an observation Ive made in the past:  Most guys that come up to you only to point out all the things that are "wrong" about your car tend to not be the most educated on the subject.

I was a little worried for a bit there, as I did not want to have to muck with lifting emblems just after finishing the resto.  I also have a number of "restoration" books and I've never seen anything that said 68 had different emblems.  I put a TON of research into the Camaro before doing the resto, so naturally I was a little confused when this guy came by.

Thanks guys - you made my day!
