The Camaro’s evolution from ’67 to ’69 is like watching a superhero get a makeover. The ’68 models ditched their side vents for that fresh Astro ventilation, while ’69 went full-on sporty with a wider, lower stance. The RS/SS combo was the Camaro’s version of a tuxedo, complete with headlight covers and a headlight washing system. Sales figures flipped like a pancake, especially the Z28, which went from a whisper to a roar, tripling its numbers by ’69. Who knew a car could get such a glow-up?

By ’66, the Chevelle SS 396 strutted its stuff as a standalone series, boasting up to 375 hp and a body that could turn heads faster than a cheetah on roller skates.
