The base Camaro was by far the most popular choice for people who walked into a Chevrolet dealership in 1967, with over 121,000 customers ordering this configuration. It was the most affordable way to get the Camaro, especially if the buyer wasn't interested in anything special, like more equipment and performance.
The RS package made its way to 64,842 Camaros produced this year, while the more desirable SS was ordered by only 34,411 units.

The Z28, fitted with the 302 V8 rated at 290 horsepower, accounted for only 602 units of the 220,906 Camaros built this year.

The Z28 is, therefore, the most desirable 1967 Camaro, but diehard petrolheads would also love a base model to use as a daily driver.

This 1967 model posted on eBay by seller littleshopofhotrods checks some boxes for a restoration candidate, albeit it won't take long before you realize it's a very challenging Camaro.

I won't comment much on what the eyes can see, but the Camaro obviously comes in a very rough shape. The owner describes it as a "rust all over" Camaro, so it's safe to assume it'll need extensive work. We know nothing about its storage history, but the Camaro sits on a trailer and needs help to stay in one piece. It was probably abandoned for a while, and I wouldn't be surprised to see many parts already missing.

The Camaro has likely served as a donor for another project so that some parts could be missing. The interior photos reveal a very rough cabin, with some parts no longer there, as is the case with the door panels. However, you'll have to inspect the Camaro in person to determine its condition more accurately, as the seller didn't share many specifics.

The VIN decodes to a V8-powered Camaro coupe born in Norwood, Ohio, but it's unclear what engine is currently under the hood (that's right, you also get an engine, despite the rough shape of this Camaro).

The digital battle for this car is surprisingly fierce, albeit I'm certain many people might plan to use it for parts. The Camaro has already received 33 bids, but considering it's a base model in a challenging condition, the selling price barely increases. The top bid is $2,600, and I don't expect it to increase substantially by the time the auction reaches the end. You still have four days to inspect the car and submit a bid.

Meanwhile, the Camaro keeps sleeping in Miami, and given its shape, you'll need a trailer to take it home. The car sells without a reserve, so if you send the highest bid, you can take it home when the auction ends in four days.
