Classic Camaro Parts - 1967 Camaro Front Suspension and Steering History - Steve's Camaro Parts - 650-873-1890

The excellent ride and handling characteristics of the front suspension are complemented by the computer analyzed adaption of the Hotchkiss rear drive system.

The independent front suspension is the short and long arm design, with coil springs mounted on wide wishbone-type lower control arms.  The wisbone-type upper control arm shaft is bolted to a bracket which is welded to the top of the frame rail with the forward end raised to provide anti-dive characteristics.  Suspension parts from the steering knuckle outward, including ball joints and brakes, are nearly identical to Chevelle components.  With the steering linkage behind the front suspension, the steering arm is reversed.  Upper and lower control arms are canted rearward, providng a trailing wheel arrangement.

The coil springs nest in the lower control arm, pass through the lower frame rail, and nest in a seat in the upper frame rail.  The shock absorbers are located inside the coil springs. The lower shock attachment is a platform type, and the upper a bayonet.

The Steering linkage is a parallel relay design, mounted to the rear of the front suspension.

The Camaro (Fig.  12-13) headlamp system opens to the side as in the 1967 (of which most parts are a carry over).

The Camaro vacuum system (Fig 12-15) is like that of a Corvette headlamp system in that they use a vacuum reserve tank with capacity for one and half cycles without the engine running, a vacuum relay valve and an actuator.  The actuator is a piston type rather than a diaphragm type.  This piston moves to the vacuum side of the actuator as directed by the relay valve.  There is no manual valve in the cluster are of the Camaro system.

Instead there is a provision on the relay valve that when moved to one side will vent the relay valve diaphragm to atmosphere. This in turn will cause the relay valve to move and route vacuum to the open side of the actuators;  consequently opening the headlamp doors.  As with the Corvette vacuum system, the headlamp doors on the Camaro can be manually opened in the event of malfunction as follows:

(Fig. 12-18) Pull outer edge of the door towards the center of the car until the door locks in open position.

Provisions for headlamp alignment are the same as units with the hideaway feature. Door adjustments are accomplished through shims, slotted holes, and floating cage nuts (see Figs 12-13).

It is recommended that the headlamp doors and windshield wiper access door be set in open position during vehicle operation in inclement weather to avoid freezing of the doors in closed position.

Classic Camaro Parts - 1969 RPO Z22 Vacuum Actuated Headlamp Doors - Steve's Camaro Parts - 650-873-1890

“Vacuum Actuated Headlamp Doors”

1969 RPO Z22

Brief History:

All three years of the first generation Camaro were available with the RPO Z22 “Rally Sport” option. Any Camaro could be ordered with the desirable “hidden headlights” starting with the most modest inline 6 cylinder right on up the food chain to the powerful COPO. In 1967 the headlight doors were opened and closed by electric motors, which Chevrolet quickly replaced with a vacuum actuated system in 1968. I do not know if the 1968 system was revised in 1969. This means if you have a ’68 RS Camaro use this information cautiously and have the correct year manuals referenced below to be sure...

Reference Material:

The Vacuum actuated headlight doors are just one of the features included on the 1969 (RPO Z22) Rally Sport Camaro. The intent of this tech feature is to aid you in understanding how this very simple vacuum circuitry is plumbed and works. Please reference the ‘1969 Camaro Factory Assembly Instruction Manual’ (AIM) RPO Z22 B6 (page 462) for part numbers and proper installation of hardware and routing of hoses.

The diagram I have included has been laid out in a way that depicts proper connections of hoses and components based on the AIM and will give you a feel for where everything belongs. They are not intended to show mounting and proper physical placement. For additional reference, the 1969 Chevrolet ‘Chassis Service Manual’ (CSM) also has information that may be of assistance to you (Section 12: Electrical-Body and Chassis: Lighting Systems starting on page 12-6 ‘Vacuum Operated Headlamp Service’).

Getting Started:

Take a good look at the diagram; let’s start with the vacuum source. You will find a vacuum line running from a fitting on the intake manifold across the firewall toward the driver side fender (the black hoses on the diagram).

Note: Hoses are black or black with colored stripes and are as depicted in the AIM. These colors concur with the CSM with the exception of one of the black hoses, which is shown with a white stripe. I chose to default to the AIM for correctness as the CSM represents several of the Chevrolet line up with hidden headlights.

With the engine running, the headlights off and the override switch in the normal position there will be vacuum present on the black hoses, the yellow-striped hoses, the ‘Vacuum Tank’ and the middle port of the ‘Vacuum Relay’. You will also find vacuum present through the headlight switch and on the orange-striped hose from the headlight switch to the ‘Vacuum Relay’ and the green-striped hoses to the actuators. The doors will be closed under these conditions.

Take note of the one way check valve or "Vacuum Line Filter" (much like the one used in the power brake booster system) placed in the main vacuum line coming from the intake manifold. It keeps the system (black, orange, yellow and green-striped hoses) holding about 10" of vacuum when the engine is shut off. That is based on what I measured on my own system. At this point there is no vacuum present on the red-striped hoses.

The Operation:

The headlight doors operate (open) when the headlight switch is pulled out to the second position (headlights on) cutting off the vacuum to the orange-striped hose. This operates the ‘Vacuum Relay’ removing vacuum from the green-striped hoses and placing vacuum on the red-striped hoses to the actuators. This can also be accomplished by operating the over ride switch (pushing in the plunger) which plugs the orange-striped hose, removing vacuum at that point (same result as turning on the headlights).

Testing:

To test the system, start the engine and push the override plunger switch in on the ‘Vacuum Relay’, the doors should open. Pull out the plunger on the override and the doors should close. Do the same from the headlight switch. If they don’t open and close properly, or at all, make sure the mechanical parts of the doors are adjusted and working smoothly before tearing into the plumbing.

Assuming the mechanical parts all function properly you now know where vacuum should be under open and closed conditions. Trouble shoot by unplugging one hose at a time and verifying that vacuum is present or not. Reproduction actuators have had a bad rap in the past so you might want to start there. Verify the switches (Headlight and Vacuum Relay) are doing what they are supposed to as well. Hose kits have been known to have the ends get brittle and crack before they even get taken out of the box they are packed in so be alert for vacuum leaks too. If low idle vacuum is a concern, vacuum should increase with rpm so set your idle up a bit if you have to for testing.

End Results:

It’s a great feeling knowing your headlight doors open and close properly, it's the little pleasures in life, isn't it? Special thanks go out to Team Members Chad Renfro (CA420) and Todd Bradford (DTB) whose research and willingness to share their knowledge with TC has assisted me greatly with this tech reference page. Thanks guys!

1967 - 1969 Camaro Parts - About the Camaro Rally Sport (RS) - Steve's Camaro Parts - 650-873-1890

About the Camaro Rally Sport (RS)

 The Rally Sport package, RPO Z22, added several style options to the standard Camaro, the most noticeable of which were the hidden headlights. 1967 and 1968 RS Camaros used the same stlye grille and doors, but they were operated differently. The 67 doors utilized two electric motors, three relays, in line diodes, limit switches, a circuit breaker, and several other electrical parts. Needless to say, these doors could be less than reliable, and the problem was particularly bad in the north. Snow and ice would freeze the doors shut and the electric motors would burn out trying to open them.
For 1968 Chevrolet switched to a vacuum operated system. This was not only more reliable, but more importantly you could still open the doors by hand if the system failed, and without damaging the system further.

In 1969 the grille and headlight doors were changed. The doors now had horizontal slits in them so that if the doors stuck closed some light would still shine through. You couldn't really see like this, but it was a neat idea.

The Rally Sport also received separate back up lights mounted below the rear bumper instead of having them in the taillight assembly. There were also bright accents on the taillights and parking lights. Other RS features included headlight washers, fender striping, front and rear wheel opening moldings, bright accents on simulated rear fender louvers, bright roof drip moldings, and a black body sill. 1967 was the most popular year for the RS option, with 64,842 sold. 1968 sales totaled 40,997, and another 37,773 in 1969. 

1967 Production
Z22 Rally Sport Package; includes front valance mounted parking lights, electrically operated headlight doors, body lower side moldings, body side paint stripes, front and rear wheel opening moldings, roof drip gutter moldings (Sport Coupe only), black painted taillight bezels, rear valance mounted back-up lights, special grille styling and "RS" emblems on radiator grille, fender and gas filler cap. $105.35, 64,842 built.

1968 Production
Z22 Rally Sport Package; includes special grille with vacuum-operated headlight covers, front valance mounted parking lights, lower body side moldings, belt reveal molding, wheel opening moldings, rear valance-mounted back-up lights, RS emblems on grille, fenders and fuel-filler cap. Sport Coupe also includes bright roof drip molding. $105.35, 40,977 built.

1969 Production
Z22 Rally Sport Package; includes special black painted grille with concealed headlights and headlight washer, fender striping (except when sport striping or Z28 Special Performance Package is specified), simulated rear fender louvers, front and rear wheel opening moldings, black body sill, RS emblems on grille, steering wheel and rear panel, Rally Sport front fender nameplates, bright accented taillights, back-up lights below rear bumper; also includes bright roof drip moldings on Sport Coupe. $131.65, 37,773 built.

We are building The most complete and technically correct R/S conversion kits available...DON'T be fooled by others on the web who throw in Books, nuts and bolts and then list everything separately to make there kits look better!!!To have a real R/S conversion you need it all, front valance, park lamps, R/S hood release. After all how are you going to open your hood when you can't reach the hood release?? And to really step up to the plate R/S the back end of your ride also with R/S Backup lamps the proper tail lamps. kick in the Rocker moldings and the R/S front end fastener kit. And it will be so real they'll think the VIN numbers are wrong!!Look at everything the kit has then shop the others. ASK THEM! What else you need to finish the kit...add in all the right parts you need to finish your ride! Then come back

 This 1967 Camaro started out as a “plain Jane” 67 with a 327 SBC.  It’s now a pro-touring resto-mod with the same numbers matching 327 that’s been souped up. Still has the original Carter AFB 4 barrel carb.   It is raced at Maui Raceway park  where it does mid to high 12’s.  All the work except engine machining was done by Steve in his garage including the paint and bodywork. The interior is redone but completely stock except the floor mounted speed shifter connected to a TH350.

1967 - 1969 Camaro Parts - 1969 Chevrolet Camaro General Overview- Steve's Camaro Parts - 650-873-1890

 

The 1969 Camaro marked the last of the first generations and is arguably the most popular.

It featured entirely new, more aggressive looking sheet metal and revised grille. Going away was the coke bottle shape, making room for a flatter, wider looking stance.

The Camaro was available in many different configurations, from a standard Sport Coupe, a rubber melting Super Sport, or a track-ready Z/28. The Rally Sport option with hidden headlights, special stripes and wheels, special bucket seats, nice carpeting, and other items could be added as a separate package to any of the models.

The Sport Coupe was longer and wider this year, had bucket seats, carpeting, and improved Astro Ventilation System.

The Z/28 was for the road racing fan. Dual exhausts, special suspension, heavy-duty radiator, quick-ratio steering, and 15×7 inch rally wheels.

The SS was “The One with a Name Like the Hiss of a Snake.” Big power, special 3-speed transmission, sport striping, heavy insulated hood.

In 1969, there were three different COPO orders for a Camaro. Order #9560 and #9561 were almost the same cars, but #9560 had one big difference: The engine was all-aluminum, and that is the brutal ZL1 (Fred Gibb Chevrolet was responsible for getting the ZL-1 cars into production). These cars had different variations of the 427ci V8, making up to 425 hp. One of the other COPO numbers was the Yenko Camaro, dreamed up by Don Yenko of Yenko Chevrolet, in which he persuaded Chevy to install the L-72s on the assembly line in a limited number of Camaros later to be known as Yenko.

The Rally Sport (RS) appearance package brought deluxe interior trim and hidden headlights with it, and the high-performance Super Sport (SS) package had its own distinct decoration (including a domed hood with simulated vents, "bumble bee" stripes encircling the nose and the iconic SS badges), a heavy-duty suspension and larger D70-series tires on 14-inch wheels. Beyond that, the SS-350 model also offered a new 350-cubic-inch small-block V8 rated at 295 horsepower — Chevy's first 350. The Rally Sport and Super Sport packages could also be ordered together to form the most lavishly equipped Camaro of them all, the RS/SS. And it was an RS/SS convertible powered by a 396 that Chevy provided as pace car for the 1967 Indianapolis 500.

Steve's Camaro Parts has the 1968 Camaro Rallysport Grill Kit Deluxe with Chrome in Stock

Kit includes black grill center with chrome highlights,Headlight doors W/Chrome highlights,upper and lower grill moldings and headlight door moldings along with headlight bezels.
