==Description==
Introduced as a direct competitor to the Ford Mustang, the Camaro quickly became a favorite among car enthusiasts and drag racers alike. The Z/28 model was specifically designed for racing and was named after the SCCA Trans-Am racing series where it competed with notable success.
Under the hood, the Z/28 was powered by a 4.9-liter small block V8 engine, also known as the 'DZ 302'. This powerful engine was capable of producing 290 horsepower and 290 lb-ft of torque, making it a formidable opponent on the track. The Z/28 also came equipped with a 4-speed manual transmission and a heavy-duty suspension, making it a top choice for drag racers.
Visually, the 1967 Camaro Z/28 had a distinctive and aggressive appearance. It featured a sporty front grille with hidden headlights, a long hood, and a sloping rear end. The Z/28 also had unique stripes and badging, further setting it apart from the standard Camaro models.
Inside, the Z/28 was just as impressive as its exterior. It featured high-back bucket seats, a Hurst shifter, and a special gauge cluster with a tachometer. The interior was designed to be both functional and stylish, with a focus on providing a comfortable and exciting driving experience.
The Z/28 gained widespread recognition and popularity when it was featured in the 1967 movie 'Pit Stop' and also made an appearance in the James Bond film 'Live and Let Die.' Its success on the track and in pop culture cemented its place in American muscle car history.
Despite being a high-performance muscle car, the Z/28 also had some practical features. It was available with options such as power steering, air conditioning, and a rear-window defogger, making it a versatile choice for daily driving as well.
