Hi,
I have looked at 67-69 Camaros and noted the scary prices! Perhaps you could put me right on what is meant by 'clone' in some advertisements and descriptions.
Many thanks

usually a, let's say a SS clone, has everything in it and on it, a original SS would have.
if you're looking for a performance car, i'd seriously suggest looking into a 98-02 LS1 Camaro or Trans-Am.
if this: http://www.khturbo.net/images/TTIROC...o@Wedding1.jpg , is the body style you're looking for, it's 82-92. i'd stick to 86-92s

if ^^^ is the body style you're looking for, it's 72(i think) through 81. 70's and 71 are a little different in the front end.

70-73 camaros have the rounded tail lights...full metal bumpers. The 74-77 lool similar to the 78-81 but they have metal bumpers and the tail lights are a bit different. The 78-81 have full plastic nose and bumper.

RE: Body styles
Well!, thank you all for your interesting comments. I am still unsure what it is I want!(typical) but I think its between a late 2nd generation,1980 or 3rd generation,1992...What does seem apparent to me is that the colour of the car has a bearing on its desirability, I have a leaning towards light coloured paint, white(then to make life difficult I quite like the purple colour!) I am not looking forhigh performance, if I wanted that I'd probablybe looking for a Porsche or a Jag. What I want is something that is aesthetically pleasing to my eye and I can enjoy the exhaust note of a big engine. I am hitting 70 next year and am no longer "a boy racer"! People buy cars for all sorts of reasons, the foregoing are mine.

honestly, for a good looking, nice sounding, depenedable car, i would go with a late model 4th generation LS1. but if the angular body style is what you like, go for it! if you go for the 3rd generation, i'd stick to a 5.7 350, not a 5.0 305. the only hard part about the 2nd generations, is it's hard to find one in good condition and that hasn't been beat on. good luck though! try www.craigslist.com and www.autotrader.com !
