Junkyard Muscle 68 Camaro Blue
Don't let the brightwork fool you, this is not a Rally Sport. The two-piece chrome belt reveal molding (above the door handle), wheel-opening moldings, and bright roof-drip moldings are part of the optional $42.15 Style Trim accessory group. The Rally Sport package included these dress-up items (and more) plus the famed hideaway headlights for $105.35. Check out the vintage car alarm on the inner fender.

Looking like it dropped out of the sky onto this pile of rocks, here's what's left of a '67 convertible. The fender emblem denotes 327 power, while the location of the sole surviving backup lamp on the rear valance and mangled remains of the body lower side moldings confirm it had the Z22 Rally Sport package. Alas, even Humpty Dumpty couldn't put this rarity back together again.

Junkyard Muscle 69 Camaro Sport
Save for the slightly tweaked quarter-panel ornamentation and trunk-panel bow tie, this '69 Sport Coupe has been picked clean of every useful part. The original 10-bolt plays peek-a-boo beneath the paper-thin quarter-panel and goes unwanted in these happy days of mail-order 12-bolts, Dana, and 9-inch aftermarket replacements.

Junkyard Muscle 69 Camaro Convertible
This bisected '69 convertible offers proof of the awesome destructive power of rust, as its front and back halves are cleaved Black Dahlia style. Originally a yellow 307/Powerglide car, it would have been a great starting point for a rework ... about 25 years ago.
