1967
Wide-footed stability that's built in gave the 1967 Camaro a road-clutching tenacity. With this exceptional wide stance (only an inch shy of five feet front and rear) the new Camaro rode like much larger cars. In the handling department, the favorable ratio of wide stance tread to wheelbase gave it clinging power on curves and incredible straight-line tracking.
Camaro was brand new by Chevrolet, and a freshly styled example of how fine an exciting road machine could look. Both models, convertible and sport coupe, had the long sports-car-inspired hood. The body styling sweeps your eye astern. And from the rear, Camaro's stylistic freshness set it apart from the mundane.
It was clear that Camaro was a go as well as a show machine. Camaro offered the kind of deep breathing big cubic-inch power you might have expected only in far larger cars, topped by a 350-cubic-inch V8 that's was exclusively Camaro's. In the power line-up: standard 140-hp six-cylinder or a 2 10-hp V8. Also available was a 155-hp six (with larger displacement) or a 275-hp 327-cu.-in.V8.
Camaro hosted many standard safety features including dual master cylinder brake system, GM-developed energy-absorbing steering column and passenger-guard door locks. 1967 Engines

_1968
The 1968 Camaro model featured a restyled center console, and a restyled secondary gauge package with a "sawtooth" design. The sawtooth design didn't contain a clock, so when the optional instrument package was ordered, the clock was combined with the tachometer in the right side instrument pod creating 1968's Tick-Tock-Tach.
The 1968 Camaro was the first to feature Astro Ventilation. It did not have side vent windows.
Side marker lamps were used for the first time in Camaros in 1968.
The dash location for the ignition was last used in the 1968 Camaro model .
The headlight cover doors in 1968 Camaros were vacuum operated rather than electric as before.
Cloth upholstery was used for the first time in Camaros in 1968 with the introduction of the famous hounds tooth cloth pattern in black and white check.
The Torque Drive transmission, a Power glide automatic that was shifted manually, became available in 1968 Camaros.
The bumblebee nose stripe continued in 1968, but was joined by two other striping styles. One wrapped across the top of the nose, down the leading edge of the front fender to a point about four inches above the bumper, then horizontally back to almost the end of the door. The other nose stripe was multicolored and came as part of a special Customized Camaro sales promotion. The sales promotion required selection of Rally Green, Bright Green, Corvette Bronze, or LeMans Blue exteriors.
To neutralize the wheel hop problems associated with the 1967 models, the 1968 Camaro received staggered rear shock absorbers (the passenger side shock passed behind the axle and the driver-side ahead of the axle). Also, multi-leaf springs were added to V-8 models except for those powered by 210-hp and 275-hp versions of the 327-cid engine.
Four-wheel disc brakes were not factory options for 1968. They were installed on 1968 Camaros, but only by dealers, or customers who purchased them across-the-counter.
The Z28 option continued in 1968, and Z28 models had either 302 or Z28 emblems on their front fenders.
The cross ram intake manifold with dual four-barrel Holley carburetors became available across-the-counter.
The grille of non-Rally Sport 1968 Camaros was redesigned to have a more distinct center split. Non-Rally Sports had backup lights incorporated within the standard taillight bezels. The backup lights for Rally Sports were separate units below the bumper. The tail lamps of all 1968 Camaros had center splits to create a four-lamp (two per side) appearance.
A passenger-side grab handle (mounted above the glove box) came as part of the Custom Interior or Special Interior groups in 1968 Camaros.
Nineteen-sixty eight Z28 Camaros are often seen with rear spoilers, but the spoiler (actually called an auxiliary panel and valence) was a separate option as RPO-D80. They were fiberglass.
Camaro SS models had unique hoods in 1968, and the hoods were different for SS-396 and SS-350 models. The SS-350 models had the same style as all 1967 SS models which featured two thin-ribbed, decorative inserts. The SS-396 models featured two inserts which each had four simulated carburetion stacks. 1968 Engines

The 1968 Camaro model featured a restyled center console, and a restyled secondary gauge package with a "sawtooth" design. The sawtooth design didn't contain a clock, so when the optional instrument package was ordered, the clock was combined with the tachometer in the right side instrument pod creating 1968's Tick-Tock-Tach.
The 1968 Camaro was the first to feature Astro Ventilation. It did not have side vent windows.
Side marker lamps were used for the first time in Camaros in 1968.
The dash location for the ignition was last used in the 1968 Camaro model .
The headlight cover doors in 1968 Camaros were vacuum operated rather than electric as before.
Cloth upholstery was used for the first time in Camaros in 1968 with the introduction of the famous hounds tooth cloth pattern in black and white check.
The Torque Drive transmission, a Power glide automatic that was shifted manually, became available in 1968 Camaros.
The bumblebee nose stripe continued in 1968, but was joined by two other striping styles. One wrapped across the top of the nose, down the leading edge of the front fender to a point about four inches above the bumper, then horizontally back to almost the end of the door. The other nose stripe was multicolored and came as part of a special Customized Camaro sales promotion. The sales promotion required selection of Rally Green, Bright Green, Corvette Bronze, or LeMans Blue exteriors.
To neutralize the wheel hop problems associated with the 1967 models, the 1968 Camaro received staggered rear shock absorbers (the passenger side shock passed behind the axle and the driver-side ahead of the axle). Also, multi-leaf springs were added to V-8 models except for those powered by 210-hp and 275-hp versions of the 327-cid engine.
Four-wheel disc brakes were not factory options for 1968. They were installed on 1968 Camaros, but only by dealers, or customers who purchased them across-the-counter.
The Z28 option continued in 1968, and Z28 models had either 302 or Z28 emblems on their front fenders.
The cross ram intake manifold with dual four-barrel Holley carburetors became available across-the-counter.
The grille of non-Rally Sport 1968 Camaros was redesigned to have a more distinct center split. Non-Rally Sports had backup lights incorporated within the standard taillight bezels. The backup lights for Rally Sports were separate units below the bumper. The tail lamps of all 1968 Camaros had center splits to create a four-lamp (two per side) appearance.
A passenger-side grab handle (mounted above the glove box) came as part of the Custom Interior or Special Interior groups in 1968 Camaros.
Nineteen-sixty eight Z28 Camaros are often seen with rear spoilers, but the spoiler (actually called an auxiliary panel and valence) was a separate option as RPO-D80. They were fiberglass.
Camaro SS models had unique hoods in 1968, and the hoods were different for SS-396 and SS-350 models. The SS-350 models had the same style as all 1967 SS models which featured two thin-ribbed, decorative inserts. The SS-396 models featured two inserts which each had four simulated carburetion stacks. 1968 Engines

The 1969 Camaro was the most refined version of the first-generation Camaro models. It was available with a small six cylinder engine all the way up to a 500 plus bhp 427. The differences in appearance from the 1967-8 models included redesigned front fenders, rear quarter panels, doors and rear fascia. The wheel wells were also flattened.
Camaro was selected again as the Indy Pace Car in 1969. This SS/RS was Dover White with orange stripes and letters and orange hounds tooth cloth seats. RPO Z11 was the Pace Car option code. RPO Z10 was a limited edition Pace Car coupe. Other options were needed to match the actual Pace Car.

_1970
1970 marked the beginning of Camaro's second generation.
It had a unique lowback bucket seat with separate, movableheadrests.
Both the short, one-piece rear spoiler and the tall, 3 piece spoiler were available for 1970. The RPO-D80 spoiler (1 piece) was included with Z28 and available on other cars. The 3 piece was available as COPO9796.
Standard Camaro had 15/16 front sway bar, none on rear. F41 (standard on SS396) gave 1" front and 9/16 rear bars. Z28 had 1" front and 11/16 rear bars.
Tachometers were 7000 rpm with red line at 5500 for standard V8 & 6000 red line for L78. Z28 were 8000 rpm tachs with 6500 red line. Speedometers were 150 mph.
SS and Z28 used 12 bolt rear end. (Last year of 12 bolt for Camaro). The 1970 Z28 and SS396-375 are the undisputed performance leaders of the second generation Camaro lineup. Road tests of the 1970 Z28 showed it turning quarter mile times of 13.6 sec. at over 100 mph. 1970 Engines

The overall design of the 1971 Camaro remained basically unchanged.
The 1971 Camaro received a different front seat from the 1970. It was a high back bucket like the Vega seat. The Z28 retained the
6500 RPM red line.
A front spoiler was added to the D80 package. Both the short, one piece rear spoiler and the tall, 3 piece spoiler and the taller 3 piece were available again for 1971, but most 1971 cars had the 3 piece. Engine compression was down from 1970 so all engines would use regular grade gasoline.
A UAW strike stopped production of the 1971 from Sept-Nov 1970.
The 12 bolt rear end was no longer used in the Camaro. 1971 Engines

1972
For 1972, horsepower continued to decline, but the figures published for 1972 were net ratings, compared to gross HP ratings used in earlier years, so the horsepower loss was less than it appeared.
A UAW strike stopped production of the 1972 from April 1972 until the end of the production year. About 1100 unfinished cars still on the line were scrapped when the production year ended. All 1972 Camaros were produced at the Norwood plant.
Appearance changes included a coarser egg crate grille for the non-RS cars and some interior changes such as the addition of door panel map pockets. The rear spoiler Z28 emblem became a foil unit.
Speedometers were now 130mph. 1972 would be the last of the big block

1973
1973 brought more loss in horsepower and the beginning of the move of the Camaro away from a performance car and more toward a luxury car. The Camaro lost one performance option (SS), and gained an appearance option (Type LT)
Like 1972, all Camaros were produced at the Norwood plant.
Increasingly stringent bumper standards forced the addition of bumper guards on non RS cars, and the addition of additional bracing and internal structure inside the RS nose.
The Z28 lost its solid lifter cam, Holley carb., and aluminum intake. This was the second year of the foil Z28 emblem on the rear spoiler which replaced the metal unit. It appears that the 1973 Z28 rear bumper did not get the mini chrome bumper guards as did 1970-1972.
The interior center console design changed; this design was used for the remainder of the second generation. 1973 Engines

1974
1974 brought a major change in second generation body styling. More stringent Federal bumper standards forced Chevy to design all new bumpers. The new bumpers were aluminum and had spring steel supports beneath them to provide better impact resistance. 1974 Camaros received a seat-belt interlock that prevented the car from being started until the driver and the front seat passenger buckled up. This proved very unpopular, and was discontinued mid-year.
The 350 was the only V8 offered. The Rally Sport disappeared from the lineup. The Z28 could be had with bold decal graphics; these cars received no exterior Z28 emblems. The Z28 cars ordered without the bold decal graphics got exterior Z28 emblems. 1974 Engines

_1975
By 1975 the stock power was quickly vanishing. With new laws governing safety and pollution, the Camaro was weighed down and power was restricted. The LM1 350cid was the most powerful engine to be had. With a lowly 155hp, it was far from being a muscle car.
The styling of the 1975 Camaros was a holdover from the previous year except for the addition of a new wrap around rear window design that would carry through until 1981. The Z28 was dropped from the lineup, as were the top performance engines of previous years. The Rally Sport was back. 1975 Engines

_1976
Very little changed for the Camaro in 1976 but a bright aluminum fascia was added between the taillights. Also, artificial leather-look graining was added to the instrument panel surrounding the gauges. The Van Nuys plant started building Camaros again.
California emission cars were not available with manual transmissions. The full vinyl roof became the partial Landau style. 1976 Engines

Very little changed for the Camaro in 1976 but a bright aluminum fascia was added between the taillights. Also, artificial leather-look graining was added to the instrument panel surrounding the gauges. The Van Nuys plant started building Camaros again.
California emission cars were not available with manual transmissions. The full vinyl roof became the partial Landau style. 1976 Engines

_1977
1977 was a wakeup year for Chevrolet. Due in large part to TV coverage of IROC, the popularity of Camaro once again soared. Chevy made the decision to bring back the Z-28, this time with more emphasis on handling, to accurately reflect the races. The Z28 had a wide multi-color hood decal, wheel opening, body sill, and rear spoiler accent stripes available in four different colors. The bumpers were now painted to match the car as were the wheels which got a new centercap emblem.
With the Z28, came the Borg Warner 4 speed. California emission Z28s were not available with manual transmissions. 1977 Engines

_ 1978
1978 was a comeback year for the Camaro. Chevy took some styling cues from Pontiac with their popular Firebird and put soft nose and rear sections on the car. It was a hit on the street, and sales soared. The Z28 which had been a late year reintroduction for 1977, now went into full production, and it sold well. T-tops were now a factory option.
Chevrolet built the two-millionth Camaro at the Van Nuys plant on May 11, 1978.
California emission Z28s were not available with manual transmissions. 1978 Engines

1978 was a comeback year for the Camaro. Chevy took some styling cues from Pontiac with their popular Firebird and put soft nose and rear sections on the car. It was a hit on the street, and sales soared. The Z28 which had been a late year reintroduction for 1977, now went into full production, and it sold well. T-tops were now a factory option.
Chevrolet built the two-millionth Camaro at the Van Nuys plant on May 11, 1978.
California emission Z28s were not available with manual transmissions. 1978 Engines

_1979
The 1979 Camaro remained basically unchanged from the popular 1978 model. The instrument panel received a new flat-panel design. The Z28 received a front chin spoiler and more aggressive looking graphics. This proved very successful. The 1979 Camaro outsold any previous year. The LT left the lineup and the Berlinetta took its place.
California emission Z28s were not available with manual transmissions. All Camaros received a redesigned dash. The blower type rear window defroster was replaced with a grid on the window.

_1980
1980 was good news for the Camaro. The Z28 was at 190HP, a jump of 25hp from 1979. Part of the horsepower increase came from the new Cowl Induction hood, returning to the Camaro the first time since 1969. This time, the hood door was operated by an electric solenoid.
Also, the front fender louvers were revised from the 1978-79 version, and they, too, were now functional to let heat out of the engine compartment. New bold 3 color graphics announced the changes. The Z28 was lowered for better handling. While the 1970 Z28 was the performance leader of the second generation, the 1980 Z28 was the handling leader.
California emission Z28s were only available in 305-165hp automatic configurations. All 1980 Camaros sold in California had the Computer Controlled Catalytic Converter System (C-4). This is a electronically controlled exhaust emissions system whose purpose is to maintain the ideal air/fuel ratio where the catalytic converter is most effective. It also triggers the check engine light when the oxygen sensor needs to be changed. These cars got Rochester Dualjet E2ME and E4ME carburetors.
The same basic 350 cam was used 1957-1980. This is the same cam as used in the 300hp 327 and 350. 1980 Engines

1980 was good news for the Camaro. The Z28 was at 190HP, a jump of 25hp from 1979. Part of the horsepower increase came from the new Cowl Induction hood, returning to the Camaro the first time since 1969. This time, the hood door was operated by an electric solenoid.
Also, the front fender louvers were revised from the 1978-79 version, and they, too, were now functional to let heat out of the engine compartment. New bold 3 color graphics announced the changes. The Z28 was lowered for better handling. While the 1970 Z28 was the performance leader of the second generation, the 1980 Z28 was the handling leader.
California emission Z28s were only available in 305-165hp automatic configurations. All 1980 Camaros sold in California had the Computer Controlled Catalytic Converter System (C-4). This is a electronically controlled exhaust emissions system whose purpose is to maintain the ideal air/fuel ratio where the catalytic converter is most effective. It also triggers the check engine light when the oxygen sensor needs to be changed. These cars got Rochester Dualjet E2ME and E4ME carburetors.
The same basic 350 cam was used 1957-1980. This is the same cam as used in the 300hp 327 and 350. 1980 Engines

_1981
1981 brought the end of an era in more than one way. The 1981 was the last of the second generation Camaros, and the first of the computer controlled Camaros (debut of CCC, or Computer Command Control). More electronics=less horsepower. The Z28 350 was down 15 horsepower to 175, and worse yet, the 350 was available only with an automatic. All 4 speed Z28s sold in the US got the 305, a pattern that would go years into the third generation Camaro. Automatics received a lock-up torque converter which functioned in second and third gears with the Z28 and third only for the rest of the Camaro line.
The Computer Command Control monitors six different powertrain functions and controls as many as eight engine/transmission operations, replacing the California only C-4 system of 1980. The CCC has an oxygen sensor system, an electronically controlled variable-mixture carburetor, a three-way catalytic converter, throttle position and coolant sensors, a barometric pressure sensor (BARO), a manifold absolute Pressure sensor (MAP), and a check engine light on the dash. It can also be used as a self diagnostic tool by tapping into the system.
Canadian optioned Z28s could still be had with the 350 and 4 speed combination, and the more relaxed Canadian emissions allowed that their 350 engines were not computer controlled like the US engines. A 1981 Canadian Z28 is basically a 1980 US Z28. 1981 Engines

1982
1982 marked the first year of the third generation Camaro. For the first time in 12 years, Camaro underwent a major redesign. The results were a success as Camaro Z28 was selected to pace the Indianapolis 500, also for the third time. The Z-28 was fully-loaded with a twin-TBI V-8 and available T-Top.
Camaro remained a rear-wheel drive despite rumors that Chevrolet was going to introduce the third generation Camaro as a front wheel drive vehicle. It is down-sized; almost 500 pounds lighter with a shorter wheelbase.
The 1982 Camaro was Motor Trend Car of the Year.
1982 introduced the Sport Coupe, Berlinetta, and Z28. Five engines were available the LQ8 2bbl 4 cylinder, the LQ9 TBI 4 cylinder, the LC1 2bbl V-6, the LG4 4bbl V-8, and the twin TBI LU5 V-8. Transmissions were a 4 speed manual and a 3 speed automatic. All Camaros came with front disc brakes. The Sport Coupe came standard with the LQ9 (LQ8 in Canada and overseas) four cylinder. The LC1 V-6 and LG4 V-8 were optional. Dog dish hub caps were standard. Wheel covers were optional as were 14x7 steel 5 spoke body-colored rally wheels. Berlinetta came standard with the LC1 V-6 with the LG4 V-8 being optional. The headlamp pockets were painted in an accent color and tail lights got a gold and black horizontal divider bar. Berlinetta also got its own lower body pinstriping. The Berlinetta came standard with its own unique 14x7 finned aluminum wheel with gold accenting and `Berlinetta' center cap. Also standard was the custom cloth interior, rear storage well cover and additional carpeting on rear wheel- houses (`deluxe luggage compartment trim'). Berlinetta also came standard with additional body insulation, softer suspension and full instru mentation. The Berlinetta also had its own unique steering wheel with `Berlinetta' badge. Z28 came with the LG4 4bbl V-8 as standard motor and LU5 twin TBI `Cross Fire Injection' 5.0 liter/305 motor was optional. All Z28's came with lightweight SMC (Sheet Molded Compound) hoods. The LU5 optioned Z28's also came with functional hood air induction flaps. The Z28 had a different nose that did not have the three horizontal slits above the grille as on the Sport Coupe and Berlinetta. Z28 came standard with a 3 piece rear spoiler and black horizontal bar in tail lights. The Z28 also came with front, side, and rear lower body valances in silver or gold. Just above the valance was a two-color lower body stripe that en- circled the car. Headlamp pockets on the Z28 were black. The Z28 came standard with a new 15x7 cast aluminum 5 spoke wheel accented with either silver or gold. Z28 badges appeared on the right rear bumper, and on the side valance just behind the front wheels. A 1982 Z28 can be distinguished from a 1983 and 1984 Z28 by its lack of the bowtie emblem by the Z28 emblem on the rear bumper. 6360 Z28 Indy Pace Car replicas were produced and came with special silver and blue paint scheme, special 4-coloer lower body striping, Indy 500 door decals, special blue cloth/silver vinyl interior, and red pinstripes on the standard Z28 aluminum wheel. 1982 Engines

1982 marked the first year of the third generation Camaro. For the first time in 12 years, Camaro underwent a major redesign. The results were a success as Camaro Z28 was selected to pace the Indianapolis 500, also for the third time. The Z-28 was fully-loaded with a twin-TBI V-8 and available T-Top.
Camaro remained a rear-wheel drive despite rumors that Chevrolet was going to introduce the third generation Camaro as a front wheel drive vehicle. It is down-sized; almost 500 pounds lighter with a shorter wheelbase.
The 1982 Camaro was Motor Trend Car of the Year.
1982 introduced the Sport Coupe, Berlinetta, and Z28. Five engines were available the LQ8 2bbl 4 cylinder, the LQ9 TBI 4 cylinder, the LC1 2bbl V-6, the LG4 4bbl V-8, and the twin TBI LU5 V-8. Transmissions were a 4 speed manual and a 3 speed automatic. All Camaros came with front disc brakes. The Sport Coupe came standard with the LQ9 (LQ8 in Canada and overseas) four cylinder. The LC1 V-6 and LG4 V-8 were optional. Dog dish hub caps were standard. Wheel covers were optional as were 14x7 steel 5 spoke body-colored rally wheels. Berlinetta came standard with the LC1 V-6 with the LG4 V-8 being optional. The headlamp pockets were painted in an accent color and tail lights got a gold and black horizontal divider bar. Berlinetta also got its own lower body pinstriping. The Berlinetta came standard with its own unique 14x7 finned aluminum wheel with gold accenting and `Berlinetta' center cap. Also standard was the custom cloth interior, rear storage well cover and additional carpeting on rear wheel- houses (`deluxe luggage compartment trim'). Berlinetta also came standard with additional body insulation, softer suspension and full instru mentation. The Berlinetta also had its own unique steering wheel with `Berlinetta' badge. Z28 came with the LG4 4bbl V-8 as standard motor and LU5 twin TBI `Cross Fire Injection' 5.0 liter/305 motor was optional. All Z28's came with lightweight SMC (Sheet Molded Compound) hoods. The LU5 optioned Z28's also came with functional hood air induction flaps. The Z28 had a different nose that did not have the three horizontal slits above the grille as on the Sport Coupe and Berlinetta. Z28 came standard with a 3 piece rear spoiler and black horizontal bar in tail lights. The Z28 also came with front, side, and rear lower body valances in silver or gold. Just above the valance was a two-color lower body stripe that en- circled the car. Headlamp pockets on the Z28 were black. The Z28 came standard with a new 15x7 cast aluminum 5 spoke wheel accented with either silver or gold. Z28 badges appeared on the right rear bumper, and on the side valance just behind the front wheels. A 1982 Z28 can be distinguished from a 1983 and 1984 Z28 by its lack of the bowtie emblem by the Z28 emblem on the rear bumper. 6360 Z28 Indy Pace Car replicas were produced and came with special silver and blue paint scheme, special 4-coloer lower body striping, Indy 500 door decals, special blue cloth/silver vinyl interior, and red pinstripes on the standard Z28 aluminum wheel. 1982 Engines

1983
There was little difference in the 1983 Camaro to distinguish it from the short 1982 production run. A 5.0 liter H.O. motor was introduced mid-year (March 1, 1983). The H.O. motor came with a higher lift and longer duration cam, dual snorkel intake system with a 5.0 Liter H.O. decal on air cleaner. A specially calibrated Quadrajet carburetor, lightweight flywheel, electric cooling fan, bigger 2.75 inch exhaust and Corvette style wide mouth monolithic catalytic converter was also part of the HO package as was `5.0 Liter H.O.' exterior badging and 3.73 rear axle gear. In 1983, L69 was only available with 5 speed manual transmission.
A four speed automatic transmission was introduced and was the only automatic available on V-8 cars. The 5 speed manual became available and was the only manual transmission available on V-8 cars. All Z28 hoods were switched from fiberglass to steel except the LU5 air induc tion hood. Charcoal was added as a wheel accent/valance color. 1983 Engines

_1984
Little changed cosmetically for the 1984 Camaro. Berlinetta gets a new high-tech electronic instrumentation including bar graph tachometer and digital speedometer. A stalk-mounted cassette/radio was loacted in front of the shift lever. Movable pod mounted controls flanked the instrument displays. The cruise control was placed in the steering wheel. The Berlinetta also sported an overhead console. The 305ci Cross Fire V-8 was dropped. All Z28 hoods are made from steel. Clutches switched to hydraulic operation on manual transmission cars. L69 H.O. Z28 motor was now available with automatic transmission. All automatics were now 4 speed 700R4 units.

Little changed cosmetically for the 1984 Camaro. Berlinetta gets a new high-tech electronic instrumentation including bar graph tachometer and digital speedometer. A stalk-mounted cassette/radio was loacted in front of the shift lever. Movable pod mounted controls flanked the instrument displays. The cruise control was placed in the steering wheel. The Berlinetta also sported an overhead console. The 305ci Cross Fire V-8 was dropped. All Z28 hoods are made from steel. Clutches switched to hydraulic operation on manual transmission cars. L69 H.O. Z28 motor was now available with automatic transmission. All automatics were now 4 speed 700R4 units.

1985
For 1985, Chevrolet designed new noses for all Camaros and new, deeper valances and front spoilers for the Z28 and newly introduced IROC-Z. The NACA style hood ducts were replaced by simulated hood louvers on the Z28. The Z28 got new `grid' pattern taillights and it's number of lower body stripes grew from 2 to 4 with a body colored gap between the top 3 stripes. The double pointer speedometer was dropped and replaced with single pointer unit. The Berlinetta type aluminum wheels became an extra cost option and Berlinetta now came standard with its own unique wheel covers that were styled to look like the optional aluminum wheel. The Berlinetta aluminum wheel also became an option on the Sport Coupe but with argent accenting rather than gold and a `Camaro' center cap rather than `Berlinetta'. Lower body pinstiping on the Berlinetta was given an additional stripe. The new IROC-Z option was available on the Z28 and came with new 16x8 aluminum wheels, P245/50VR-16 Goodyear Gatorback tires, fog lamps, CAMARO on front license plate panel, .5 inch lowered ride height, body colored valances, Delco-Bilstein rear gas shocks, special front struts, increased spring rates, special jounce bumpers, 5 degrees of caster (up from 3.5 on Z28) in front wheel alignment, `wonderbar' front frame rail stiffener, special valving in steering for increased steering effort, larger rear stabilizer bar with stiffer bushings, IROC-Z exterior decals and interior dash badge, and a thinner two-color lower body stripe. `Tuned Port Injection' (TPI) motors were introduced. Corvette got 350ci, 230hp version (L98) and Camaro got the 305ci, 215hp V8 version (LB9) which was available in the Z-28 or IROC-Z. The LB9 was available with automatic transmission only. The L69 engine, 305ci, 190hp, was only available in IROC and only with 5 speed manual. L69 production was restricted half-way (April 26, 1985) through the model year. The MFI V-6 LB8 motor, 173ci, 135hp, was introduced to replace carbureted LC1 V-6. It had similar port injection to the LB9 TPI V-8. All manual transmissions were now 5 speeds. The 7.5 inch rear end was dropped and replaced with a new 7.625 (7 5/8) inch rear end for all Camaros. The G92 (performance axle ratio) was only available on IROC-Z for 1985. 1985 Engines

1986
The 1986 Camaro Sport Coupe was restyled and upgraded. New lower body striping, black head- lamp pockets, black mirrors, and an F41 suspension calibration were standard. New silver 15x7 (up from the 14x7 rally wheel) steel 5 spoke rally wheels became standard equipment on the Sport Coupe which also got the previous year's Z28 taillights with the horizontal black separator bar. The Berlinetta model was discontinued early in the year. Late in the 1986 model year, the 85mph speedometer in the Z28 and IROC-Z were replaced with a new 145 mph unit. All 1986 Camaros had the newly required CHMSL (center high mounted stop light) mounted externally on the leading edge of the hatchback glass. This was the only year Z28's and IROC-Z's had the CHMSL mounted here. Fog lamps were now available on the Sport Coupe and Berlinetta, and the fog lamp/`CAMARO' front grille assembly of the IROC was now available on the regular Z28. New clear coat/base coat paint was adopted this year. The original 215hp 305 TPI motor came out in 1985 available both in the Z28 and IROC-Z. The motor was detuned for 1986 losing 25hp due to a cam change. Torque was increased though, from 275 to 285. Automatic transmissions were required on all 1985/1986 TPI powered cars. 1986 Engines

1987
The 1987 Sport Coupe was restyled with rally wheels (unique to this year), new lower body stripes, and argent headlamp pockets. The Berlinetta model was dropped and replaced with the new 'LT' option for the Sport Coupe. The LT option incorporated most of the Berlinetta's equipment except the electronic instrumentation. Late in the model year, the RS Camaro was introduced for California and with V-6 power only. The RS model had Z28 style valances that were painted body color (like IROC) and had no lower body stripes. The RS got the 15 inch 5 spoke aluminum Z28 wheels which were painted to match body color. The 1987 RS Camaro came only in red, white, or black. Delco-Bose sound systems and leather interior were available for the first time and were available on all Camaro models The CHMSL (center high mounted stop light) moved to the spoiler (which was slightly increased in size) on all cars equipped with a spoiler (all Z28's, IROC-Z's; spoiler optional on LT and Sport Coupe). Lower body stripes on Z28 still numbered 4, but the gap between the top three stripes was removed. The Camaro convertible was introduced for the first time since 1969 as a regular production option. The convertible was available on the Sport Coupe, Sport Coupe LT, Z28, and IROC-Z. The new 350 TPI motor was not available in the convertible however. The convertible conversion was performed on t-top equipped (t-top models have extra bracing) Camaros by ASC. Only 1,007 convertibles were produced this first year of production. 1987 was the 20th anniversary of the Camaro and the convertibles were considered the anniversary editions and were signified by a special dash badge that read `20th Anniversary Commemorative Edition'. The G92 performance axle ratio and J65 four wheel disc brakes were available this year on the IROC-Z convertible. 1987 was the last year for Camaros produced at the Norwood Ohio plant; the original Camaro Plant. The 350 TPI and 5 speed 305 TPI combinations were finally available on the IROC-Z. The 350 was only available in the IROC-Z and only with an automatic transmission. The exterior differed in appearance only by `5.7 Tuned Port Injection' badges rather than `Tuned Port Injection' badges. The TPI 350 motor was not visually distinguishable from the TPI 305. 1987 Engines

The 1987 Sport Coupe was restyled with rally wheels (unique to this year), new lower body stripes, and argent headlamp pockets. The Berlinetta model was dropped and replaced with the new 'LT' option for the Sport Coupe. The LT option incorporated most of the Berlinetta's equipment except the electronic instrumentation. Late in the model year, the RS Camaro was introduced for California and with V-6 power only. The RS model had Z28 style valances that were painted body color (like IROC) and had no lower body stripes. The RS got the 15 inch 5 spoke aluminum Z28 wheels which were painted to match body color. The 1987 RS Camaro came only in red, white, or black. Delco-Bose sound systems and leather interior were available for the first time and were available on all Camaro models The CHMSL (center high mounted stop light) moved to the spoiler (which was slightly increased in size) on all cars equipped with a spoiler (all Z28's, IROC-Z's; spoiler optional on LT and Sport Coupe). Lower body stripes on Z28 still numbered 4, but the gap between the top three stripes was removed. The Camaro convertible was introduced for the first time since 1969 as a regular production option. The convertible was available on the Sport Coupe, Sport Coupe LT, Z28, and IROC-Z. The new 350 TPI motor was not available in the convertible however. The convertible conversion was performed on t-top equipped (t-top models have extra bracing) Camaros by ASC. Only 1,007 convertibles were produced this first year of production. 1987 was the 20th anniversary of the Camaro and the convertibles were considered the anniversary editions and were signified by a special dash badge that read `20th Anniversary Commemorative Edition'. The G92 performance axle ratio and J65 four wheel disc brakes were available this year on the IROC-Z convertible. 1987 was the last year for Camaros produced at the Norwood Ohio plant; the original Camaro Plant. The 350 TPI and 5 speed 305 TPI combinations were finally available on the IROC-Z. The 350 was only available in the IROC-Z and only with an automatic transmission. The exterior differed in appearance only by `5.7 Tuned Port Injection' badges rather than `Tuned Port Injection' badges. The TPI 350 motor was not visually distinguishable from the TPI 305. 1987 Engines

_1988
The LT option was dropped in 1988. The Z28 model was dropped and replaced by the IROC-Z (although interior dash badge still read `Z28 IROC-Z', rather than just `IROC-Z' as on exterior badges). The 16 inch wheels that had been standard equipment on the IROC were restyled and now became an extra cost option for the IROC. The standard IROC wheel was the old 15x7 inch aluminum 5 spoke Z28 wheel and this wheel was also now standard on the Sport Coupe. In 1988 only, this wheel, rather than having only the recessed areas painted gold or silver, was completely painted gold or silver. The IROC-Z door decals were moved from the front of the doors to the rear. The Z28 exterior badges were replaced with IROC-Z badges. The lower-body stripe was reversed changing from black on bottom with trim color above, to black on top with trim color below, now with a gap (of body color) between the two stripes. Newly available DX3 stripe delete option eliminated IROC-Z decals and stripes altogether. The Sport Coupe took on the appearance of the defunct Z28 except the `CAMARO' rather than the `Z28' exterior badges were used. Body colored headlight pockets replaced black; and gold or silver wheel center caps replaced black. A regular hood was used to replace the louvered hood and the 1985-1987 IROC two tone lower body stripe updated the four-color Z28 body stripe. This was the last year for the Sport Coupe and was the only year for this particular appearance. Early in the year, the Sport Coupes came with a short rear wing rather than a spoiler. This ungainly addition was discontinued and replaced with the standard spoiler midyear. 1988 Engines

The Sport Coupe was dropped 1989 being replaced by the returning RS model. The RS was now available with LO3 305ci, 170hp V-8 engine. The headlight pockets on the RS were no longer painted black. All Camaros now came with rear shoulder belts. The Corvette PASS-KEY ignition lock system was adopted for all Camaros. The base 15 inch IROC wheel was restyled to have the appearance of the optional 16 inch wheel. P245/50ZR-16 tires replaced the P245/50VR-16 tires on the IROC-Z when equipped with the 16 inch wheels. TPI motors got better performing `Multec' fuel injectors. The exterior of the TPI plennum changed slightly: the ridges on top of the plennum did not extend as far forward. Calibration refinements eliminated the cold start injector. Four wheel disc brakes were now optional (J65). The IROC-Z's rear brakes were increased in size from 10.5 inch rotors to 11.65 inch rotors with PBR Australian built aluminum calipers and more reliable parking brake actuators. Front discs still had 10.5 inch rotors with Delco-Moraine single piston calipers. The performance rear axle option (G92) included a performance exhaust system (dual catalytic converters), which upped hp by 10 on cars so equipped. 1989 Engines

The Sport Coupe was dropped 1989 being replaced by the returning RS model. The RS was now available with LO3 305ci, 170hp V-8 engine. The headlight pockets on the RS were no longer painted black. All Camaros now came with rear shoulder belts. The Corvette PASS-KEY ignition lock system was adopted for all Camaros. The base 15 inch IROC wheel was restyled to have the appearance of the optional 16 inch wheel. P245/50ZR-16 tires replaced the P245/50VR-16 tires on the IROC-Z when equipped with the 16 inch wheels. TPI motors got better performing `Multec' fuel injectors. The exterior of the TPI plennum changed slightly: the ridges on top of the plennum did not extend as far forward. Calibration refinements eliminated the cold start injector. Four wheel disc brakes were now optional (J65). The IROC-Z's rear brakes were increased in size from 10.5 inch rotors to 11.65 inch rotors with PBR Australian built aluminum calipers and more reliable parking brake actuators. Front discs still had 10.5 inch rotors with Delco-Moraine single piston calipers. The performance rear axle option (G92) included a performance exhaust system (dual catalytic converters), which upped hp by 10 on cars so equipped. 1989 Engines

1991
In 1991 the Z28 name returns replacing the IROC-Z. All the lower valances were redesigned and the side valances were fitted with scoops in front of each wheel. The Z28 was given a large Ferrari style rear wing. The word `CAMARO' on the front license plate panel was replaced with the bow-tie emblem on the Z28. The hood louvers from the previous year's IROC were replaced by `power blisters' on the Z28. Engine designations were removed from side valance badging and only appeared on rear bumper. The center rear brake light was moved from the spoiler to the inside leading edge of the hatchback glass.
The standard wheel for the Z28 was a newly styled 16 inch wheel. Standard tires for the Z28 were P235/55R-16 tires; P245/50ZR-16 tires were optional on the Z28, and standard on 350 Z28 and Z28 convertible. The RS was available for the first time with 16 inch wheels. Tires for the 16 inch wheels on the RS were P235/55R-16. The RS also got grid taillights to match Z28.
The B4C `special service' police package became available to law enforcement agencies only. Cars were RS coupes with Z28 5.0 TPI or 5.7 TPI drivetrains and Z28 suspensions. These cars came equipped with the 16 inch wheels and P245/50-ZR16 tires, engine oil cooler, rear disc brakes, and limited slip axle. 1991 Engines

1992
1992 marks the 25th anniversary and the last year for the 3rd generation Camaro. This is also the last year that Camaros would be produced at the Van Nuys plant (the only Camaro producing plant since the Norwood plant closed at the end of the 1987 model year). All Camaros had 25th anniversary badge on the dash. The `Heritage Edition' package was available on all Camaros. The package included first generation Camaro style hood and rear deck stripes, a body colored grille, black headlamp pockets, and a 25th anniversary badge on rear spoiler for RS or on the hatchback rear edge for the Z28. Initially the Heritage package was only available as a white car with red stripes, a black car with red stripes or red car with black stripes. The mid-year additional Heritage Edition colors available were polo green with gold stripes (this combination also got gold badges and gold accent wheels), and purple haze with silver stripes. A special 25th anniversary `Collector's Edition' Camaro was planned, but then dropped. There were to be 602 (same as the number of '67 Z28's) produced. Only two prototypes were completed however. The Collector's Edition Camaro started as a white Heritage Edition RS with black stripes. Then the B4C police package was added equipped with the Corvette L98 5.7 aluminum head motor, fitted with "siamesed" intake runners and tubular headers. This brought the horsepower rating up to 270. The car was also equipped with a ZF 6-speed and GTA black `lace' 16x8 wheels. The dash badge on the RS now read `RS' rather than `CAMARO'. The Z28 convertible came only with P235/55R-16 tires for 1992. 1992 Engines

1992 marks the 25th anniversary and the last year for the 3rd generation Camaro. This is also the last year that Camaros would be produced at the Van Nuys plant (the only Camaro producing plant since the Norwood plant closed at the end of the 1987 model year). All Camaros had 25th anniversary badge on the dash. The `Heritage Edition' package was available on all Camaros. The package included first generation Camaro style hood and rear deck stripes, a body colored grille, black headlamp pockets, and a 25th anniversary badge on rear spoiler for RS or on the hatchback rear edge for the Z28. Initially the Heritage package was only available as a white car with red stripes, a black car with red stripes or red car with black stripes. The mid-year additional Heritage Edition colors available were polo green with gold stripes (this combination also got gold badges and gold accent wheels), and purple haze with silver stripes. A special 25th anniversary `Collector's Edition' Camaro was planned, but then dropped. There were to be 602 (same as the number of '67 Z28's) produced. Only two prototypes were completed however. The Collector's Edition Camaro started as a white Heritage Edition RS with black stripes. Then the B4C police package was added equipped with the Corvette L98 5.7 aluminum head motor, fitted with "siamesed" intake runners and tubular headers. This brought the horsepower rating up to 270. The car was also equipped with a ZF 6-speed and GTA black `lace' 16x8 wheels. The dash badge on the RS now read `RS' rather than `CAMARO'. The Z28 convertible came only with P235/55R-16 tires for 1992. 1992 Engines

_1993
The 1993 Camaro Indy Pace Car was a street version of the Camaro chosen to pace the Indianapolis 500 on May 30th 1993. 625 Camaros were optioned out with the Indy Pace Car features. The street versions of the actual Pace Car were mechanically identical to the official track version.
The "new" LT-1 reverse flow small block chevy produced 275 hp and 325 lbs-ft of torque. It was mated to a 4L60 four speed overdrive transmission which provided crisp acceleration and high top end speeds for official use on the speedway surface.
Underneath, the new short/long front suspension, rack and pinion steering, Delco De Carbon shock absorbers, and four wheel anti-lock brakes provided additional nimbleness for both the track and the street.
The only difference the actual "track" pace car had were: strobe lights, rollbar, safety harness, on board fire extinguisher, and a two way radio communication system for the speedway officials.
Of these 625 street versions, many were "Festival cars". 125 of these pace cars were designated as festival cars which were to be used for official duties in the Indianapolis area during the month of May in 1993. They were used as parade cars for all the drivers and dignitaries, and for of course, the race queen. These festival pace cars were sold as "Demos" after the race in June of 1993. The VIN #'s of all 625 Camaro Pace Cars were in no particular order. 1993 Engines

1994
For 1994, V6 and Z28 convertible models were made available. The power top was made by ASC. Instrumentation was changed to white, and the window and climate controls were changed to black.
Fuel injectors were upgraded from 22lb. to 24lb. GM changed from Speed Density to Mass Air Flow control. The EPROM computer chip was now soldered to the main computer board, preventing its removal. Heated 3 wire O2 sensors replaced the single wire sensors.
The T56 6-speed transmission in the Z28's was revised with new gear ratios and also introduced CAGS, the skip-shift feature. The EPA made it necessary on all 6 speeds to meet emissions standards. It locks out all other gears except 1-4 to maximize fuel efficiency. GM needed this minute fraction of fuel savings to meet the overall company average, so disabling it won't decrease your MPG by any noticeable amount.
The only axle ratio available with the 6-speed was now a 3.42.
New Automatic transmission, the 4L60-E electronic unit, replaced the 4L60.
Interior colors were Light Gray, Graphite, Tan, and Flame Red (cloth only).
Leather interior was introduced later in the year, in graphite or tan.
668 Z28's were turned into Police Cars (B4C).
88 cars were Government issued (GAM).

1995
The Buick 3800 Series II V6 (L36 3.8L) engine was introduced into the Camaro midyear and most were available only in California, replacing the short lived 3.4L OHV. Automatic Z28's in California received dual catalytic converters which added an additional 10 hp. Base Eagle GA tires were upgraded from S-rated to T-rated, and the speed limiter was raised from 105 to 115 mph.
The Eagle RS-A (QFZ) all-season Z-rated tire was introduced and available on the Z28, in addition to the Eagle GS-C (QLC) high-performance Z-rated tire.
The black roof and mirrors on the Z28's could now be ordered in same body color for no additional charge. The "CAMARO" icons are no longer on base coupes.
Accelerated Slip Regulation (traction control) was now available on the Z28. Cars equipped with this option had a toggle switch next to the cigarette lighter for turning it on or off. This satisfied those who still love smoky parking lot burnouts.
Exterior colors: Dark Gray-Green Metallic and Purple Pearl metallic dropped. Mystic Teal, Sebring Silver and Dark Purple Metallic introduced.
70 Camaros were produced as Government vehicles (GAM), the "U-2 chase car". Not much is known about these cars. 310 were turned into Z28 Police cars (B4C). The rare 1LE Performance Package was added to only 106 Z28's this year. 1995 Engines

_1996
The 1996 Camaro was designed to appeal to buyers seeking a sporty-looking, fun-to-drive vehicle, while the performance-oriented Z28 version was meant to for those seeking true sports-car handling and feel. The base Camaro competes primarily with the Ford Mustang and Probe, Mitsubishi Eclipse, Nissan 240SX and Toyota Celica, while the sporty Z28 takes on the Dodge Stealth, Ford Mustang Cobra and Mitsubishi 3000GT. Both Camaros come as either a coupe or a convertible.
The base model got a boost in power this year, thanks to GM's corporate 3.8-liter V6. With 200 horsepower and more sophisticated fuel injection, the 3.8 puts the Camaro 50 horsepower up on the Mustang, its main rival. The standard transmission is a 5-speed manual (6-speed on the Z28), and a 4-speed automatic is optional.
Entry-level coupes and convertibles come with 16-in. wheels. The optional Performance Handling Package adds wider, more aggressive tires on aluminum wheels, a traction-enhancing limited-slip differential, a quicker steering ratio and dual exhaust.
The Z28's standard 5.7-liter V8 is rated at 285 horsepower, up 10 from '95. Wider tires are available to Z28 buyers to help transfer all that power to the pavement. Also, traction control is optional on the Z28. The RS appearance package makes a return, with front and rear fascia extensions, side sills and a 3-piece rear spoiler.
All versions of the Camaro come with dual airbags, antilock brakes and AM/FM/cassette stereo system. Air conditioning is standard, except on the base model, where it's optional. 1996 Engines

_1997
1997 marked 30th birthday of the Chevrolet Camaro. Chevrolet celebrated this event by offering several unique Camaros that were very distinctive and easily identifiable as 30th Anniversary models.
The Z28 convertible was adorned with Hugger Orange stripes, white lacquer wheels, and white leather anniversary seats. These white leather seats were only available with the 30th anniversary option. The option was available on the convertible or coupe.
The standard interior with the anniversary package was a "Houndstooth" cloth. This pattern dates back to the late 1960's when this pattern first gained it's popularity. The 30th anniversary logos are quite visible with these seats. However, all 1997 Camaros had the 30th logo stitched into it's seats, regardless of which model it was. Only the white/orange anniversary package had the red, white, blue highlights.
The fastest, most powerful anniversary model was the Camaro SS. It sported unique Hugger Orange stripes that traveled from the front fender to the rear of the car. The 17" SS specific wheels were lacquered in white just like the Z28. White leather or "Houndstooth" cloth were the interior choices. 1997 Engines

The Z28 convertible was adorned with Hugger Orange stripes, white lacquer wheels, and white leather anniversary seats. These white leather seats were only available with the 30th anniversary option. The option was available on the convertible or coupe.
The standard interior with the anniversary package was a "Houndstooth" cloth. This pattern dates back to the late 1960's when this pattern first gained it's popularity. The 30th anniversary logos are quite visible with these seats. However, all 1997 Camaros had the 30th logo stitched into it's seats, regardless of which model it was. Only the white/orange anniversary package had the red, white, blue highlights.
The fastest, most powerful anniversary model was the Camaro SS. It sported unique Hugger Orange stripes that traveled from the front fender to the rear of the car. The 17" SS specific wheels were lacquered in white just like the Z28. White leather or "Houndstooth" cloth were the interior choices. 1997 Engines

_1998
For 1998, the new all-aluminum LS1 V8 replaced the LT1 in the Z28, rated at 305 hp. Camaro SS bumped up to 320hp, 327hp with SLP's exhaust system. The LS1 debuted in the 1997 Corvette, rated at 345hp. While they are the same engine, many feel that the f-body version is under rated. The camshaft in the Camaro is actually a bit more aggressive than the Corvette. Larger brakes (11.8" front/11.9" rear) all around were included on the Z28 and V6 cars with the Y87 Performance Package option which included dual piston front calipers and electronic rear brake force distribution.
Camaros received a new hood and nose, primarily to accommodate the LS1 which is slightly taller than the LT1.
The short-lived Camaro RS was dropped and replaced by the Sport Appearance Package which is now available on all models (basically just ground effects and rear spoiler lip).
New interior cloth on Camaros: Dark Gray, Neutral and Red Accent.
Leather interior available in Dark Gray, Neutral and White.
Exterior colors: Navy Blue Metallic and Sport Gold Metallic added. The black roof returned to the Z28, but side mirrors could be ordered in the body color. 1998 Engines

_1999
If you're looking for head-spinning style and exhilarating performance, unleash a '99 Chevy Camaro.
The Camaro coupes and convertibles - equipped with the 200-hp, 3800 V6 - were affordable and lots of fun.
The 305 hp, LS1 V8, six-speed Z28 just may have been the best bang-for-the-buck bargain in the 1999 sports car market. Then there was the legendary SS. Even among Camaros, this car stood alone.
Ever since it first hit the streets in '67, Camaro has been sending a stern message to lesser coupes: Stay home.
Camaro Coupe
Why settle for just any sports car when you could get something with attitude? That's what Camaro Coupe is all about. The styling is stunning, with more than a hint of Camaro's past. The 200 hp, 3800Series II V6 - connected to a 5-speed manual transmission - amplifies the fun.
Camaro Convertible
For less money than you might imagine, a Camaro Convertible can be your fantasy come true. Beyond stunning looks, this well designed drop-top includes a fully lined power top, a three-piece hard tonneau cover and a glass rear window with electric defogger.
Z28 T-Top Coupe
From the striped, spoilered, collectible '67 to the 1999 305 hp LS1 edition, Camaro Z28 is a legend on the street and on the track.
The 1999 Z28 boasts all the right hardware - 4-wheel disc brakes with ABS, new heavy-duty Torsen differential with a limited slip axle, special sport suspension, and, of course, that high-revving V8. A 4-speed automatic transmission is standard; a 6-speed manual is a no-cost option.
Camaro Z28 has always been known for teaching the competition a thing or two about performance. For 1999, there's another lesson in store.
Z28 Convertible
This Camaro might be everything you ever wanted in a convertible sports car: outrageously beautiful, shockingly powerful, and an absolute blast to drive.
Fact is, all the things that make Z28 a great performer - from the LS1 V8 engine to the tuned suspension - are here. Only difference: this Z-car has been specially designed and quality built as a convertible. 1999 Engines

* A total of 45 1999 Monterey Maroon cars were built for the GM fleet in order to allow the color to be available at start-of-production year 2000. They were a mix of V6 coupes, convertibles, and Z28s. None were SS and none had Y3F Sport Appearance Package. All were driven by GM employees and most were disposed of through the GM auction program. . . which means GM dealers would have bought them for resale to the public.
** A total of 5 Z28 Coupes were built in the 1999 model year in color 63U Sport Gold metallic. While Sport Gold was discontinued near the end of the model run in 1998, a contract had been signed between Chevrolet and Days Inn for a sweepstakes where the final prize was a Sport Gold Z28 Coupe. While the sweepstakes ran in the spring and summer of '98, the contract specified a 1999 Z28. Thus, Ste. Therese built 5 1999s for this sweepstakes. Two units were given away, the other three were driven by GM executives and then disposed of through the GM auction system.

* A total of 45 1999 Monterey Maroon cars were built for the GM fleet in order to allow the color to be available at start-of-production year 2000. They were a mix of V6 coupes, convertibles, and Z28s. None were SS and none had Y3F Sport Appearance Package. All were driven by GM employees and most were disposed of through the GM auction program. . . which means GM dealers would have bought them for resale to the public.
** A total of 5 Z28 Coupes were built in the 1999 model year in color 63U Sport Gold metallic. While Sport Gold was discontinued near the end of the model run in 1998, a contract had been signed between Chevrolet and Days Inn for a sweepstakes where the final prize was a Sport Gold Z28 Coupe. While the sweepstakes ran in the spring and summer of '98, the contract specified a 1999 Z28. Thus, Ste. Therese built 5 1999s for this sweepstakes. Two units were given away, the other three were driven by GM executives and then disposed of through the GM auction system.

The Chevrolet Camaro continued with the same basic package for 2000, with the addition of appearance and audio upgrades. New 16-inch aluminum wheels are standard on Z28 trims, with polished wheels optional on all trims. The SS Package now features new 17-inch aluminum wheels. Steering-wheel-mounted radio controls are available, as is an optional CD changer.
History: Chevrolet introduced the 1967 Camaro as its entry into what would later be called the "pony car" segment. Although it has always been available with options to suit a wide range of sports-coupe buyers, performance has been what the name Camaro brings to mind for most people. The Camaro continues the muscle-car tradition as a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive sports coupe or convertible with available V8 power. The fourth-generation Camaro was introduced as a 1994 model and in 1998 received a major refreshing with body upgrades including a new front fascia, a new hood, composite reflector headlamps, and new fenders. The 1998 model also received chassis upgrades, a new 4-wheel disc brake system and a new anti-lock brake system (ABS).
Model Details: The 2000 Chevrolet Camaro is available in four models: Camaro Coupe, Camaro Convertible, Z28 Coupe and Z28 Convertible. Safety features include dual airbags, an anti-lock brake system (ABS), daytime running lights with automatic exterior light control, and optional traction control. The standard powertrain on the Camaro Coupe and Convertible is a 200-horsepower 3.8-liter V6 engine mated to a 5-speed manual transmission, with an optional 4-speed automatic transmission available. The Z28 Coupe and Convertible feature a 305-horsepower 5.7-liter V8 with a standard 4-speed automatic transmission; a 6-speed manual transmission is available at no extra cost. Standard equipment on all Camaros includes air conditioning, cloth reclining front bucket seats, an AM/FM stereo with cassette player, a tilt steering column, a theft-deterrent system, and 16-inch wheels and tires. The Z28 upgrades include a 200-watt Monsoon stereo system, 16-inch aluminum wheels, and a Zexel Torsen limited-slip differential. Also available on Z28 trims is the SS package, which increases horsepower to 320 and adds low-restriction exhaust with dual 2.75-inch tailpipes, SS-specific 17-inch aluminum wheels, high-performance tires, a unique rear spoiler and a forced-air induction fiberglass hood. 2000 Engines

_2001
For 34 years, the Chevrolet Camaro has stayed true to 'to Heritage of "Performance, American Style. Since its introduction, it has maintained a position in Chevrolet's performance-oriented sporty car lineup with traditional rear-wheel drive and muscular pushrod VB engine, second only to its big brother, the Chevrolet Corvette.
The 2001 Camaro is far more refined than its ancestors, especially the Z28. With horsepower increased from 305 to 310 and up from 320 to 325 on Z28 SS models, plus increases in torque ratings, Z28 buyers will feel more raw power than before.
CAMARO MODEL LINEUP
There are four Camaro models: Camaro Coupe & Convertible, and Z28 Coupe & Convertible, plus the SS Performance and Appearance option. The strength of the Camaro Convertibles is that they were designed and engineered at the beginning as convertibles and are built right on the assembly line in St. Theresa, Quebec, Canada. Camaro Coupe models offer removable roof panels - another open-air option that is an exclusive in this segment (excluding other GM vehicles).
In addition, there are three option packages that transform the Camaro into something sportier yet, or make it more useful for other "pursuits."
• The Sport Appearance Package (Y3F) includes 16-inch aluminum wheels with P235/55R-1 6 blackmail Touring tires, specific front and rear fasciae, and a rear spoiler extension. The package may be ordered on any Camaro model, but on Z28s it does not include the wheels and tires because they are standard on the Z. This package is not available with the SS.
• The SS Performance/Appearance Package (WU8) added even more "beef' to an already muscular car. Available on Z28 Coupe or Convertible models, it includes added horsepower (325 vs. the Z28's 310), a forced-air composite hood, special SS badging, a unique rear spoiler, low-restriction dual-outlet exhaust with larger pipes, power steering cooler, High Performance Ride and Handling package and special SS 17-inch aluminum wheels with speed-rated Goodyear Eagle FI P275/40ZR-17 tires. The SS package can be ordered with either the 6-seed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission.
• The B4C Special Service Police Package, which includes several Z28 ingredients on a Camaro Coupe platform, is available only to law enforcement agencies, and its enhanced performance makes the "long arm of the low" even longer.
CAMARO COMFORT AND CONVENIENCE
Camaros come with a long list of standard equipment items.
• Camaro Coupes and Convertibles include features such as the award-winning 3800 V6 engine with sequential fuel injection, a 5-5peed manual transmission, power-assisted 4-wheel antilock disc brakes and rack-and-pinion power steering, a tilt-steering column, air-conditioning, a center Console with auxiliary power and storage room for cassettes and CDs, automatic exterior lamp control, cloth front buckets with 4-way manually adjustable driver's seat, fold-down rear seats and a Firm Ride and Handling suspension.
• Z28 Coupes and Z-28 Convertibles get all of the above and more, including the Corvette-inspired LS1 \/8 engine, increasing Horsepower from 305 to 310 for 2001. It is available with either a 6-speed manual or 4-speed electronically controlled automatic transmissions and a limited-slip axle is included in either case. Either transmission can be ordered as standard equipment. For more enthusiastic driving, the Performance Ride and Handling package is available and includes special Z28 aluminum wheels and P235/55R-16 blackwall Touring tires. More aggressive P245/507R-16 tires are available as upgrades.
Standard equipment on Convertibles also includes power windows and door locks, fog lamps and cruise control. Standard safety and security items Include dual front air bags, battery run-down protection, a passive theft-deterrent system, engine oil life monitoring and daytime running lamps.
The only thing that overpowers Camaro's engine is the available 500-watt (peak) Monsoon sound system. This system is standard on all but the base Coupe and includes 8-speakers and an AM/FM stereo radio with cassette. An optional Monsoon premium sound system with CD player is available along with other sport and luxury amenities like power seats, leather seating surfaces and traction control.
NEW FOR 2001
in addition to the already- mentioned LS1 horsepower increase, every Camaro model includes retuned shocks to aid ride and handling and optimize the isolation of road noise and vibration.
Also new for 2001, Sunset Orange Metallic is added to Camaro's already exciting array of available colors. 2001 Engines

2002 CHEVROLET CAMARO CELEBRATES
35 YEARS AS AN AMERICAN CLASSIC
DETROIT-Camaro is the purest, most uncompromising expression of the breed, "America's honest sports car." And it celebrates its 35-year heritage by introducing a limited edition 35th Anniversary Package in 2002, available on SS Coupes and SS Convertibles. All are finished in Bright Rallye Red. Coupes include removable T-tops roof panels and body-color roof halo; convertibles have a black top. Wide dual stripes, fading solid silver into a checkered flag, run the length of the vehicle from the front fascia, over the hood and onto the rear decklid and spoiler.
Other distinguishing features are black SS wheels with machine-faced surfaces, a silver debossed Camaro name on the front grille and rear fascia, and commemorative front fender emblems.
Inside, the 35th Anniversary logo is embroidered onto the front headrests and a special trophy/rear shelf mat. Also included is an Ebony leather interior trim with Medium Gray leather inserts as well as a special-issue owner's portfolio. And all 2002 Camaros sport a 35th anniversary badge on the dashboard.
Camaro continues in coupe or convertible form. Eager to perform, Camaro offers four unique models, a trio of transmission options and other option packages such as the SS. Customers have a choice of affordable performance-oriented sporty cars with traditional
rear-wheel drive and muscular pushrod V8 engines versus higher-priced domestic or
import models.
Choice of coupes & convertibles
The four available models are Camaro Coupe and Convertible, and Z28 Coupe and Convertible. Coupe models are also available with removable roof panels, exclusive among the non-GM vehicles in its market segment.
In addition, two option packages transform Camaro into something sportier still. The Sport Appearance Package includes specific front and rear fascias and a rear spoiler extension, and is available on any Camaro model except the SS.
The SS Performance/Appearance Package adds even more 'beef' to the already muscular Z28 coupe or convertible. It includes more power-325 horsepower vs. Z28's 310-a
forced-air induction composite hood, unique rear spoiler and low-restriction/dual-outlet exhaust with larger pipes, and can be ordered with either a six-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission.
Additionally, a host of performance and appearance options are available on the Camaro SS, such as a grille insert, a "cat-back" exhaust system with center-mounted rear exhaust outlets, special purpose suspension packages and more.
The Camaro RS package is also available on the Camaro V6 coupe.
Standard features list expanded
Several significant adjustments have been made to the list of standard equipment for Camaro in 2002. For instance, all V6-equipped models receive P235/55R-16 touring tires and painted 16-inch cast aluminum wheels, which replace P215/55R16 ties and bolt-on wheel covers. All V8-powered models benefit from wider speed rated P245/50ZR-16 Goodyear Eagle RS-A
all-season tires for increased road-holding capability. The new tires replace P235/55R16 Goodyear Eagle GA non-speed rated tires.
Additionally, a four-speed automatic becomes standard issue on V6-equipped convertibles, and a power steering cooler is outfitted on all Z28 models. Sebring Silver Metallic joins the Camaro exterior color palette, replacing Mystic Teal Metallic.
A well-equipped driver's car
Driving excitement is standard equipment with Camaro, yet Chevrolet has not overlooked comfort, convenience and safety.
High-back bucket seats, driver-oriented instrumentation and center armrest/console provide the front occupants with a cockpit-like feel. Every Camaro also features power-assisted four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes, power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering, a tilt steering column, air conditioning and a Firm Ride & Handling suspension.
Sound systems include an AM/FM stereo with in-dash CD player and extended range speakers for V6-equipped coupes. The V6 convertibles and all Z28s also get an upgrade with standard installation of a Monsoon AM/FM Premium Sound system with in-dash CD. All systems feature an electronically tuned receiver (ETR) and include TheftLock, seek-scan and auto tone control. A 12-disc remote CD changer is optional across the Camaro family.
Standard safety and security items include dual front air bags, battery run-down protection, a passive theft-deterrent system, engine oil life monitor and daytime
running lamps.
