I try to, but not always succeed in it being out in the wild vs. sitting in an exotic car lot which are a dime a dozen around here.

 

This one was spotted outside the gold standard for fast food in the Chicago western suburbs, Maxwell's.

 

Extra credit for this Camaro as it looks like a driver.

 

The hood doesn't fit very well.

 

The crease on the front fender doesn't match with the one on the door.

 

I wonder what the percentage of cars in America have orange interiors. Lol

I don't remember the vinyl top fitting like that, at least on my '67.

.......it looks like a driver.....

Actually,  past tense, 'was'.

That is the typical vinyl top fitment on that year car. Ever notice that there is never a Camaro at any car show that is not an SS or RS? Most likely 90% are just badge engineered. Back in the day you never saw either one on the road. I confirmed this at a car show yesterday at a big car show with to other old guys like myself.

I worked at a Chevy dealer during the height of the vinyl top craze. We claimed to have vinyl top kits for every GM car at the time, and in every factory color available. Most of the vinyl tops were dealer installed. And they usually had a chrome strip that ran around the outer edge. We sold a lot of the kits to DIY guys. Most of them ended up in the body shop to fix the blisters and kinks.
