Details

This was the 13th Camaro built on the first day of production at the Los Angeles plant, which was August 31, 1966. VIN 00013. According to the NCRS report, this car was delivered to Big Bend Motors in Waterville, WA. In December 2015, the restoration began. The car was taken down to every nut and bolt, and the body was put on a rotisserie. The body panels were professionally replaced using the best parts available. After the metalwork was completed, the body was painted. Every nut and bolt has been refurbished or replaced with exact, American-made reproductions. It has the correct casting-code engine and correct transmission. The glass is American-made and has the correct date code as well. The engine components were correct and dated where applicable. This attention means the engine and bay reflect the same detail as they did in 1966. The complete electrical system was built focusing on correct wire colors and gauges, as well as connections. Now completed and finished as new, this Camaro is a significant part of Chevrolet history.
