Last Friday, I bought a 1995 Firehawk convertible....I was looking at all this guys collectors cars, and he shows me a 67 Camaro that looks like it had been sitting for 30 years! I asked him about the 427 emblems on it, and he told me it was a real deal DANA Camaro! Its in need of a full restro....this has to be rare. Question...how many supercars did Dana make? Also he has a 427 4 speed vette, and a 70 442, that he got as a package deal....all from the same guy!!!....all cars are #'s match, but all need to be restored. Thanks, Troy OLien

I looked at it in a dark pole shed....its either maroon or red....it was very dirty! He just got all the cars recently from a guy that just moved to Minnesota from California. Do you know of this car?

About ten years ago I looked at a 427 Dana (said the owner) in a guys back yard in So Calif that was full of neat cars. This Dana (maroon) started life as a drag racer and at some point was wrecked and the drivetrain and interior parts were transplanted into another Camaro, the original car was a 67 or 68 (I don't remember which) and the donor body was the wrong year. I was able to find the previous owner who told me about the history.

The Holy Grail of Dana:

x 1,000,000 (dollars, that is!)

Its a hardtop, and it has the weld on traction bars. The stock hood is missing, someone replaced it with a fiberglass cowl hood. I'm gonna try to get some pics next time I go there. And I want to look it over better. He says its the original Dana 427 engine. I'll get more info later. Troy
