Welcome, Hannah, to the Club.
My thoughts and prayers to you and your father. I knoiw the journey has been a rough one.
Nice collection you have and, I believe, after three posts, you can post pictures.
Quite a few sites for viewing, just be careful of fake RS/SS.
You can read over at www.camaros.org most anything you want on 1st Gen.
KurtS & William have a nioce site.

My dad and I were close and I was 14 when he was killed in the line of duty.Good thing is the man whom did it is in prison serving a life sentence without parole,1st degree murder.I know a classic car dealer whom is aware there are fake RS/SS Camaros out there.Said he would come with me if I find one telling me if it's a real deal or not checking it out.The 1969 Camaro,I have a built up 6.0 going in it on the engine stand.

Knowledge is power.
Good luck in your search and to the help offered by your friend.
You may be asked on specs of your 6.0L going in, just a warning.

67 RS/SS for the win

Welcome, Sounds like your Dad did a lot of good things besides getting you into Camaro's.

My Girl's always argue over who gets the 67. Mom shut them down and says its her's. Mean while I am like how do you all know I am going to die first?

My dad taught me to serve in a good way and he loved Chevy Camaros.His favorite were the 1967 to 1969s.I am having in memory him painted somewhere on the 1969 Camaro

Welcome,sounds like you have a couple of amazing cars. Sorry for your loss,must have been tough. '69 is my favorite year, I had one for 14 years.
Sold it when I had a young family and was buying a home.

It was tough,the man that killed my dad took a part of my life.He taught me good things in life and I know he was looking down smiling when I became an United States Marine in 1997,served 1997 to 2005 proud of my military service.
