V8TV marked the Camaro’s 50th anniversary in 2017 by pulling a genuinely rare example out of the private Brothers Collection: a Granada Gold 1967 Camaro SS396 convertible carrying the top 375-horsepower engine option. Every layer of specification, body style, engine output, and color, makes this a harder car to find than a standard SS396. See exactly what earned it an episode of Muscle Car of the Week.
This 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS Z28, finished in Granada Gold, carries no exterior badge proving what it is — just a “4L” code stamped on the firewall confirming its rare, racing-homologated 302 V8. Owner Ron Makovich has kept it since 2000, sharing the hobby with his son and grandchildren. Watch to find out why the very first Z28 Camaros were built to satisfy a racing rulebook, not a sales brochure.
This Granada Gold 1967 Camaro SS396 convertible, built for V8TV’s 50th-anniversary Camaro coverage, marks the exact mid-year moment Chevrolet finally let the 396 big block into the Camaro — a full two years after it debuted in the Impala SS. Host Kevin Oeste and The Brothers Collection dig into why the engine was late, and viewers’ own decades-old ownership stories fill in the rest.
