The first-gen engine and appearance options were almost overwhelming, and the RS Package, available on any model, included hidden headlights, sleek taillights, and exterior bright trim. The SS Performance Package featured a 350 ci or 396 ci V-8 engine (instead of Chevy’s standard 230 ci straight-six), and an upgraded chassis strengthened to deal with the V-8’s additional power and enhanced to deliver improved handling.

Painted Tuxedo Black with a black vinyl top, this RS/SS is powered by the 350 ci Turbo-Fire V-8 (not to be confused with turbocharged anything—these were days when marketing men were in the driver’s seat and engineers rode shotgun). The engine makes 295 hp and 380 ft lbs of torque. The driveline is original, and the matching-numbers engine also attests to the car’s authenticity. Adding to the car’s exclusive nature is the fact that it has only 33,572.6 miles on the odometer. In back of the V-8 is a three-speed automatic transmission, while power steering and power brakes make this Camaro a civilized car to drive.

a friend/classmate of mine had a '69 RS/SS, but he had the L78/396 and 4 speed.
and what made even more rare, it was a convertible and the white top matched the white interior and it was in the navy blue with the wide white racing stripes up the hood and down the trunk.
and it would GOOOOO!!

like this, but darker blue.

I was watching a movie on TCM Saturday, a French film noir movie Le Samurai, filmed in 1967.

They had a lovely black female piano player for the bar scenes that in the movie drove a 1967 Camaro. How odd is that, a movie made in France has an American muscle car in it?

It was a black Camaro too, kinda like the car of the week pics.
