Actually, the similarities were between the '67 Camaro and the '68 Nova, not the '67 Chevy II. The platform was being designed for the '68 Nova release and ended up being rushed forward a year to get the Camaro on the market.

The '67 Chevy II may not seem like much to some, but trying to purchase a solid one today can be an extremely expensive venture. It would sure be nice to locate one of the alleged six that were built with the L-79 option. And we think kilts are expensive! Years ago, a friend and I did the cosmetic conversion to a '67 model, so as to better fit it into an NHRA S/S class as a '66 L-79. Those were the days that tried mens' souls.
