Anyone notice the 67 BB Camaro with flared fenders ?

It does, along with the Vette (looks to be a 63') in the background. TAZ

I was looking at that 67 Camaro. Did you notice no emblems or flags and no RS or SS gas cap ? Tailpan says BB, the rest makes me wonder what is really going on with it.

I definitely noticed that too and wondered if it might be a customized '67 Z.

Good thought John. It's obvious those black steel wheels aren't it's normal rolling stock. With flares front & back, the Z idea holds merit. With wide slots perhaps ?

Looks like molded gas cap.....
Too small of tires IMO,,,,
A Z/28 ? I don't see enough clues .
What year is the photo , 72-73 ?

Nah, it's not that late, I'm betting '69-70. That's a new Volvo there. And the '68 Vette looks pretty fresh.

I agree. I also think the guy riding his bike that far out from the curb is <span style="font-style: italic"><span style="font-weight: bold">nuts</span></span>.

Some enlargements for your viewing pleasure... I see a split window, the Camaro looks like an SS (emblems up front) [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

I like the wrinkled up Olds! The '63 'Vette has a custom hood, the solid axle has the typical used car lot dead battery! I'm betting the Camaro was a fresh trade that the owner kept the wheels......that stuff still happens! Cool pics for sure.

Such cool pics also more proof that the world hasn't really progressed much in all the years since since. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/no.gif[/img]
Anyone please feel free to add/correct but best I can see looking over the hood of the 66 drag 'Velle, from left to right it looks like a 67 Malibu, 67 442, 66 Chevelle, a 66 Fury and a Midyear Vette Roadster beside a 56-62 Vette also the 67 Camaro.
2'nd pic, a 62 Vette in front of the 67 Camaro and a 63 Coupe in front of it also between the Split and 56-62 Vette, a 68/69 A-Body maybe Cutlass plus the 62 Olds at the curb.
Last shot, back row w/ the 63, a 65/66 Roadster, the 66 Fury again plus yet another Midyear Roadster w/ hard hat, a 66/67 A-Body Hardtop then roof showing of what looks like a 65/66 B-Body 'Vert.
Front row w/ the hard hat 68 Roadster, another Midyear roadster, 68 SS Hardtop, 66/67 Coronet, 67/68 Mustang Fastback, another 68 SS Hardtop, tail ends of a 67 Caddy and 68/69 Skylark then last a hard one...bumper looks 66 Chevy but wheel well shape off, maybe drivers side low &amp; car leaning away?
