Birth of the Camaro 1967!
Wish I still had my 67 SS 350, with rally headlights & hood and debadged. 295HP 10.25 compress ratio, Muncie wide ratio, 3.23 gears and Bose 8T Stereo. VV Mono Leaf rear springs VV, 68 brought a better rear suspension. Bought it in 68 while in the Coast Guard and sold it in the early 70's. Drats!

In the late '60's I had a '67 Camaro RS coupe, with the 327 V8 and 4 speed Muncie. I know exactly what you mean about that mono leaf rear suspension. That axle used to jackhammer on hard starts. I also didn't care for the GM shifter, although a Hurst shifter would improve things. Did I mention the 9.5 inch drum brakes ?
Other than those things, I really liked my '67 Camaro RS. There's only a few vehicles I've had, that I still wish I had. That Camaro was one, another was my '62 Volvo PV544s (Sport), with the B18s engine.
I actually wouldn't mind having a 2016 Camaro...the 3.6 liter V6 engine would do just fine for me.
