I don’t speak muscle car as well as I should but...67 to 69? Side dump exhaust and cragar wheels though... Maybe mag?

Pretty sure it’s a ‘69 (‘67s had covered headlights, ‘68s were more complex in the grill), and those are torq thrust II wheels I believe. I rather like the dark gray torq thrust D wheels personally, but it’s cool to see an old Camaro with plates and without a cover or air conditioned garage around it.

Well in fairness, this garage is both covered and air conditioned... But it got here somehow! It even snowed a little this morning

It’s definitely a 69, but you could get not covered lights in 1967, and covered lights in 1969 too... 1967 was the last year for the triangle vent window. The tail lights, sheet metal, and louver/vent thing give it away as a 1969.

1969. The only 1st gen that looks like that

‘67 and ‘68 are the same, but the ‘68 had marker lights. The RS/SS is the one with the covered headlights in ‘67/68. This one is a ‘67

Ah, thanks for the clarification. (I’ve always been a Mustang fan, so I could tell you the year by year changes through the SN95, but I couldn’t see the first gen Camaro as anything other than a “Mustang knockoff”.)

Also the 67's has those little triangle vent windows, but the 68's had single piece door glass.

IIRC the fake vent in front of the rear wheels = ‘69.

‘69. It’s kind of a mashup as it’s got parts from a few different submodels on it.

I don’t think the wheels are cragars. They look like Torq Thrust II knockoffs.

The flat top wheel arches make it a ‘69.
