1969 Chevrolet Camaro L89 Pace Car Convertible
This extremely rare 1969 Camaro is documented as one of only twelve Pace Car convertibles equipped with the rare L89 aluminum-head 396/375 horsepower engine.

1970 Chevrolet Camaro Sport Coupe
It seems hard to justify the extra $75,000 to own #1, especially as there's another #1 out there from the Norwood plant
Introduced to the public on February 26, 1970, the 1970 Camaro series stayed in production for twelve years. This handsome design survived gas crises, "big bumper" redesigns, and emasculating...

1969 Chevrolet Z/28 Camaro Cross Ram Sport Coupe

1967 Nickey Camaro 427 RS/SS
Today, the words “tuner car” conjures up images of an AMG or Renntech-equipped Mercedes. Or perhaps a Stillen-equipped SUV or a McLaren Mustang. But long before these high-impact, sophisticated cruisers existed, a group of dealer-based “tuners” were turning out supercars of a different sort. Baldwin-Motion, Dana, Nickey and Yenko were...

1970 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 Rally Sport
Introduced to compete against Ford's popular and youth-oriented Mustang in 1967, the Camaro's brawny good looks and high-performance options resulted in an immediate sales success.
