Default Re: 1967 Camaro L78 bad wreck

I didn't feel that insurance companies accomplished this, it was the smog rules that did it! The insurance companies simply raised the rates, to accomodate the risk - then danced in front of Congress to save face, what else is new! The real muscle car killer was the environmentalists, not a bad thing - but eliminating smog and maintaining performance were technologically impossible in that time period.
