1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396

Camaro
On occasion, Detroit comes up with a one-year wonder that strikes a chord with its audience. Chevy's first facelift of its pony car was one of those chords, and the 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 provided the rockin' muscle car backbeat. (more…)

Camaro
First. Most powerful. Quickest. Only one Chevy combines it all: the 1969 Chevrolet ZL1 Camaro. It went a step beyond the 427 Yenko and even the mighty L88 Corvette, to where few production muscle cars tread. (more…)

Camaro
The 1968 Chevrolet Camaro underwent some suspension tweaks, as continuous improvement was a big part of the Camaro picture. New staggered shocks helped reduce the tendency toward "axle tramp" that had plagued early high-performance editions, and rear suspension travel was increased to reduce Camaro's likelihood of "bottoming."

The Engine Suffix Code is stamped on a block pad located immediately forward of the right hand or passenger side cylinder head. The entire engine code contains the assembly plant, month (MM) and day (DD). See note below if your month or day code has a letter "I" instead of a number in it. (more…)
Camaro 4th Generation (1993-2002)

Camaro 4th Generation (1993-2002)

Camaro
While the 1993 fourth-generation Camaro was very much new, it was shy of all-new; much of the floor stamping and all of the rear suspension was shared with the third-generation car. But with plastic front fenders, a new short-arm/long-arm front suspension, rack-and-pinion steering and a sleek new profile, the '93 was new enough. (more…)

Camaro 3rd Generation (1982-1992)

Camaro
Third-generation Camaros were the first without front sub frames or leaf-spring rear suspensions. Now the front end was held up with a modified Macpherson strut system, and the hind end relied on a long torque arm and coil springs. These were also the first Camaros with factory fuel injection, four-speed automatic transmissions, five-speed manual transmissions, four-cylinder engines, 16-inch wheels and hatchback bodies. In January 1982, the Camaro was, for the first time since 1967, truly all-new and slightly smaller.  (more…)

Camaro 2ND Generation (1970½-1981)

Camaro
Though it didn't make it to market until February of 1970, the second-generation 1970½ Camaro would continue to be produced for 12 years. The second-generation Camaro's styling was inspired by Ferrari and was also bigger, heavier and the convertible model was no longer available. As the 1970s progressed, it would grow less powerful, surrendering to the pressures of tightening emissions regulations and a fuel crisis. (more…)

Camaro 1ST Generation (1967-1970)

Camaro 1ST Generation (1967-1970)

Camaro
Like the first Ford Mustang was based on the compact Falcon, so the first 1967 Camaro was based on the Chevy Nova. However, it was based on the upcoming new redesigned '68 Nova and therefore more strong than a comparable '67 Nova. (more…)
