Does anyone know what these holes are for on the dash of my 67 convertible? Are they probably aftermarket holes? My options from the trim tag are: WD\2SR\3SK\4F\5BY. The exterior color is Tuxedo black and interior is bright blue.
Thanks!

They may have been for some sort of NON dealer add on AC Unit!  If not Paul may be on to something! ;D

The holes are on each end of the dash and look to be about 2.5" diameter.

Those are the holes for the bezel that goes on the end of the "high level ventilation system".  Ambient outside air is feed in by duct work to the passenger area this way.  There is a "deflector" that fits in the inside part of the bezel that rotates to put the air where you want it.

I cannot find a picture of any other 67 Camaro with these holes so small. I have seen the AC vent holes on AC cars that are larger in diameter. I know that the Astro Ventilation system was not used until 68. Is this what you are referring to? Was this high level ventilation system an option in 67?

Could these be the only remaining signs that my car was an AC car?

I missed the fact your car is a 67......sorry about that.  I was referring to the astro vent system.  AC would then be the next guess for me but you say the holes you have seen on 67's with AC have been bigger.  Sorry I can't be of more help.
