1967 CHEVROLET CAMARO RS

MODEL OVERVIEW:

The 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS marked the debut of Chevrolet’s now-legendary pony car, introducing a sleeker, more refined alternative to Ford’s Mustang with unmistakable late-’60s styling. The RS (Rally Sport) package was distinguished by its iconic vacuum-operated hideaway headlamps, revised grille, bright exterior trim accents, unique tail-lights and RS badging. Buyers could option the RS package across a wide range of engines—from the smooth 327 small-block to the big-block 396—making it as much about style as performance. Inside, the first-year Camaro offered a sporty, driver-focused cockpit with deep-set gauges and bucket seats, while the chassis featured crisp handling for the era thanks to its short-wheelbase F-body platform. As the very first RS model in Camaro history, the ’67 stands as a highly collectible and culturally significant American classic.

AUCTION CAR:

The car has been restored to a very high standard, with a stunning custom paintwork together with hood cowl and rear spoiler, a fully renewed interior, upgraded suspension and brakes, sub-frame connectors, strong engine build, a full MSD ignition system and a properly sorted driveline.

This Camaro presents with exceptional visual appeal, strong mechanical capability, clean workmanship throughout, and the kind of tough stance that makes a first-gen RS so desirable. This is an impressive turnkey example.

DRIVE – LINE:

Power comes from a strong GM Crate 350ci V8, retaining its desirable 4-bolt main block and strengthened with performance internals including forged pistons, a steel crank and a performance camshaft. The block has been bored .030” over and built to an easy 400hp + specification, giving it exceptional bottom-end strength and the durability to handle additional power.

Breathing is significantly improved by Dart steel heads with 2.02 valves and stainless-steel valve gear, while induction is managed by a Holley 750 carburettor on an Edelbrock RPM Air-Gap intake, delivering crisp throttle response and strong airflow.

A complete MSD 6-AL ignition system—including MSD box, distributor and wiring—ensures a hotter, more consistent spark and sharper drivability.

The engine is paired with a rebuilt Muncie M-20 four-speed manual fitted with a Hurst shifter for the direct, mechanical shift feel that defines a proper first-generation Camaro. Power is delivered through a 12-bolt Chevrolet rear end equipped with an Eaton 3.55 Posi-Traction centre, providing strong acceleration and relaxed highway manners.

Suspension has been completely renewed with lowered front coil springs, multi-leaf rear springs, KYB gas shocks, and polyurethane bushings, all contributing to improved stability and a more confident road feel. Sub-frame connectors further stiffen the chassis, enhancing both handling and structural integrity.

Big-brake performance is provided by Baer slotted 13-inch front discs paired with a power steering rack, stainless-steel brake lines and a Be-Cool aluminium radiator with dual electric fans, ensuring reliable cooling in all conditions.

A full Flowmaster exhaust system with H-pipe completes the package, producing the deep, crisp and unmistakably authentic small-block soundtrack enthusiasts expect.

EXTERIOR:

The exterior presents exceptionally well, finished in stunning custom Steel Metallic Grey with black rally stripes that display outstanding depth, clarity and a high-quality gloss. A 2-inch steel cowl bonnet and matching rear spoiler add a tougher, more purposeful stance while keeping car’s classic lines.

The Camaro retains its unmistakable RS identity with hideaway headlights, crisp body contours and clean chrome trim, while a set of 17-inch Billet Specialties wheels completes the look, giving the car a premium muscle-car presence without compromising its authentic Rally Sport style.

INTERIOR:

The interior has been previously completely renewed with restored factory appointments throughout. The cabin benefits from Dynamat insulation, improving cabin refinement and reducing heat and noise. A set of Auto Meter gauges including large Tacho, provides modern accuracy while blending cleanly into the cockpit.

Comfort is enhanced with a modern Vintage Air A/C system, making the car far more enjoyable in Australian conditions.

Additional enhancements include a Painless complete wiring harness for electrical reliability, an Alpine stereo/CD system and an Optimum battery neatly fitted in the boot.

The result is a tidy interior that maintains the Camaro’s period charm while offering improved gauges and usability.

SUMMARY:

A high-quality 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS combining excellent factory provenance with a strong, fully upgraded mechanical package and premium restoration quality. Featuring a fortified 350ci V8 with performance internals, Dart 2.02 heads, MSD ignition, Holley/Edelbrock induction, rebuilt Muncie M-20 4-speed, Eaton 3.55 Posi-Traction rear, Flowmaster exhaust, Baer disc brakes, upgraded suspension, sub-frame connectors, Vintage Air conditioning and stunning custom paint, this Camaro delivers toughness, drivability and show-level presentation in equal measure.

A standout Rally Sport — powerful, beautifully restored, mechanically sorted and ready for an enthusiast who wants a serious first-gen RS Camaro with the right upgrades.
