Description

Factory-correct cars will always be the most valuable cars on the market. Original Chevrolet Camaro 1967-1969 tells you exactly which parts, accessories, finishes, fabrics, and colors you must have to restore your Camaro to its factory-original condition—or exactly what to look for when shopping for a restored Camaro.

More than 200 color images detail Chevy's major performance packages of the period—the SS, RS and Z/28—while exhaustively detailing engines, interiors, and bodies. Of equal importance, muscle-car authority Jason Scott provides factory records, comprehensive specifications, detailed parts lists and codes, and period literature to offer the definitive guide to originality.

Chevrolet’s Camaro was introduced in 1967 on the heels of Ford’s best-selling Mustang. It quickly established itself as the go-to option for muscle-car customers wanting a more aggressive pony car.

During its first generation from 1967 to 1969, GM offered option packages to satisfy all tastes, from six-cylinders grocery-getters to agile small-block cars to big-block monsters ready for drag racing straight off the showroom floor. Today, these first-generation Camaros are some of the most valuable cars in the collectible muscle-car market.

This is a must-have volume for any enthusiast shopping for a first-generation Camaro or about to undertake a restoration project.

I don't have this car and I have no intention of getting one or restoring one, but I was interested in the car itself and about the restoration of one, hence my reason for reading this.

I can't comment much about whether the information is accurate or even written well for a mechanic (I am definitely not a mechanic), but I hope my opinion can be accepted anyway.

I think the main thing to look for in a book like this is how it is laid out. If a book is poorly executed then you're not going to pick this one over any other one. For me, this was well laid out and very easy to read and understand.

The images along with the text are brilliant and the author clearly knows what they are talking about. If they don't, then they fooled me!

Obviously, if you're planning on restoring this car then I recommend this book to you. But if you're still just interested in the car and even deeper into detail then you will enjoy reading this.

Someone who buys this is either going to be going back to it time and time again during their restoration or it'll be someone that buys it and reads it once for it to become a "coffee table book" which will be skimmed over a couple of times and then never looked at again. Thankfully, I got an eBook version of this book so I have enjoyed it once and I am happy about that.

I "wished" for this book on NetGalley and the publisher granted my wish. I have left a review because I wanted to do so.

If you have first generation Camaro that you want to restore, then this is an essential resource to have. It describes all aspects of the original Camaro, showing in good pictures and in detailed text how these cars were configured.
