My father bought his 1967 Impala from R.T. Ayers Chevrolet in Yukon OK. . When R.T Ayers sold the Yukon dealership in 1971 he went on to start the Rendezvous Trails of America campsites. Hence the R.T.A. After R.T Ayers sold the dealership it became Alan Merrell Chevrolet. In March 1971 when I was 15 years old I purchased my first car a 1967 Camaro RS from a lady in Yukon OK who had purchased it new from R.T. Ayers Chevrolet in Yukon OK. It was the same gold color as that Camaro in the video with the same gold interior. It had a 327 2bbl carb and a 4 speed manual transmission. It had those same hubcaps too. It had 36000 miles on it when I purchased it and I paid $1200 cash for it that I had saved up, R.T Ayers had a brother who had a Chevrolet dealership in Edmond OK, Craig Ayers Chevrolet. In March of 1972 I purchased a new 1972 Chevrolet Nova SS there. I'm not surprised the first Camaro became a race car. It's great that he saved all the original parts though. Back then when we owned these types of cars no one ever thought that some day they would be collectible. They were just cars to us and we dust drove, modified, and used them never thinking about what they might be worth some day. And when the gas shortage hit in the early 70s, you couldn't give away what would be considered classic muscle cars. No one wanted to buy them. Many went to the crusher because no one wanted a car that needed premium gas and got 10 mpg. I lived through all of that.

This was the sort of thing that Jam Handy was doing when I was there. They were shooting in 16mm with lower budgets than they had been working with years before. This created a need to understand efficient production management to tell a story effectively. Much was learned in the process.

In the fall of 1972 I enrolled to mount hood community college in Oregon. Someone brought it a 1966 Camaro? Same color as in this video. Knowing alot about Chevy's I had never heard anything about at 66. It was a 6 cylinder, might have been a 3 speed but it could have been a powerglide don't recall. The thing I remember most was the back seat folded down like a 66 barracuda? It was from Canada, I guess built there? Never thought that much about it till now, wish I would have bought it. Tuned it up never saw it again 🥺

This is great ! My first car was a 67' Camaro in 1984..had the 327 and Powerglide transmission..Custom Deluxe interior.. I have bought several really good books on Camaros and didn't know at the time my Camaro had so many of the options available at that time..the car had been through hell before I bought it and did the same to it..luckily the guy who bought it from me sold it to a guy that has really fixed it up to near original condition..it is in Arlington Texas now..got to see it about 10 years ago.

Camaro has always been the best bang for the buck for road racing, drag racing and just about any other type of racing. The only exception, for street use, was a used 1970 455 HO Trans-Am. We could burn a tank of gas, and a set of rear tires, in about 3 hours with five kids in the car. Yes, we were the kids. I've never had more fun in any car in my entire life. That's 455 HO, baby!

Nice car but those original hubcaps look like crap on it. You look at those beautiful body lines while those hideous hubcaps stick out and ruin the visual experience. What were the designers thinking? Also, as far as I'm concerned the race car build totally ruins the value of the car. So the race car builder claimed to know the significance of the car and still proceeded to hack the $h|t out of it? Unfortunate indeed. At least he saved the original parts...I guess.

Seems like the very first Camaro ever built should've had the 283 cu in V8 instead of an inline 6, especially for showing to dealers for the very first time. But I guess they were only concerned with showing the new body style at the time.

My brother had a similar 1967 Camaro with the small engine and 3 speed manual transmission. My friends and I what steal it at night and take a joyride. We never were caught. I think we were 14 or 15 years old at the time. Thankfully we didn't hurt somebody in the process.
