For any enthusiast hunting for a turn-key classic car, this 1967 Camaro SS/RS has to be a hot prospect. It presents superbly, and with a fire-breathing big-block under the hood, it should offer performance that will match its good looks. The owner has decided that the time is right to part with this gem, so he has listed it for sale here on eBay. It is located in Ripon, California, and while the bidding has rocketed to $35,600, it’s no surprise that the reserve hasn’t been met.

The owner describes the Camaro as being of show quality, and it is hard to argue with him on that point. The Mountain Green Metallic paint shines beautifully, with no evidence of any flaws or defects. The Black vinyl top offers a striking contrast, and it is in as-new condition. The panels are laser straight, while the gaps are about as tight and consistent as you could ever hope to find in a Camaro of this vintage. The owner claims that there is not a single spot or bubble of rust to be found anywhere, and the supplied photos seem to support this claim. They show floors and a frame that are clean enough to eat off, and prone areas like the cowl look just as spotless. The vehicle features the distinctive RS grille with the hidden headlights. As is the case with the rest of the trim and chrome, this is so close to perfect that it really doesn’t matter. The Rally wheels look spot-on, while the glass is flawless. There’s no doubt that this SS would turn heads wherever it goes.

Opening the doors and taking a look around inside the Camaro continues the good news. Everything appears to be perfect, and once again, it looks like it has just rolled off the showroom floor. There is no wear or fading on the carpet or upholstery, while the dash and pad are flawless. It features bucket seats, a tilt wheel, and a console with the factory gauge cluster. If I am really harsh here, I am disappointed to find that the owner has fitted a CD player in place of the original radio. While this isn’t an unusual move, I am disappointed to see it in an otherwise spotlessly original interior. The buyer could choose to reverse this change, or they might decide to leave well enough alone.

This Camaro’s drivetrain is a bit of a mystery because it isn’t clear whether the 396ci V8 that resides under the hood is numbers-matching. This is the L78 version that pumps out an astonishing 375hp. With a manual transmission bolted to this big-block, the SS would be capable of storming the ¼ mile in 14.1 seconds. The mystery with this classic continues when we work our way back to the transmission. The owner refers to it as a “Traumatic 5 Speed,” which I assume means that it is a Tremec unit. The Camaro also features power steering and power brakes, and the owner admits that the V8 has been fitted with headers. Once again, I am disappointed that changes have been made, but they aren’t the end of the world. If the engine is original, finding a date-correct transmission and exhaust manifolds would not be difficult, allowing the buyer to return the car to its original specifications. If you aren’t fixed on originality, the news remains positive. The Camaro is in sound mechanical health, with the owner saying that not only does it run and drive like new, but it commands plenty of attention wherever it goes.

This 1967 Camaro SS/RS is a stunning car, and its next owner will be sliding behind the wheel of a turn-key classic that perfectly combines good looks with impressive performance. While it is not 100% original, it appears that returning it to that state would be possible. The bidding currently sits at $35,600, and I believe that figure is a long way short of where the auction will end. I would be staggered if the bidding didn’t reach $50,000, although a higher sale price is possible given the vehicle’s overall condition. I have always admitted a preference to anything that wears a blue-oval badge, but if someone offered to park this in my garage, I wouldn’t say no. How about you?
