The
basic engineering of the Camaro was a unibody structure from the
windshield and firewall back, with a separate steel rail subframe for
everything up front. Double A-arms made up the independent front
suspension while the solid rear axle was suspended by semi-elliptical
leaf springs. As was typical of standard-equipped vehicles at the time,
braking was by four drums, the steering was slow and manual, and Chevy's
rugged 230-cubic-inch straight six poked out an optimistically rated 140
horsepower while twisting a three-speed manual transmission.
The base $2,466 '67 Camaro sport coupe was lean and aggressive, as was
the convertible. Adding substance to that appearance was done either by
picking or combining individual options or trim packages called RS and
SS.
Buyers could opt for a larger 250-inch version of the six making 155
horsepower, a 210-horsepower 327-cubic-inch small-block V8 fed by a
two-barrel carb, that same V8 with a four-barrel carb and a higher
compression ratio was rated at 275 horsepower, or two versions of the
396-cubic-inch big-block V8 making either 325 or 375 horsepower. Those
engines could be lashed to a series of wide- or short-ratio three- or
four-speed manual transmissions, or one of two automatics: the slushy
two-speed Powerglide or outstanding three-speed Turbobydramatic.
