I was doing a little house cleaning in our basement last weekend, and came across a couple of boxes of my old (very old) car magazines. I couldn't resist having a look (so much for the house cleaning [Big Grin] ).

I found a number of articles and ad's about Camaro's, and it brought back a lot of fond memories for me. I scanned a few of the Camaro SS ad's so you could see what got me first interested in the Camaro during my high school days.

Enjoy!

I had all my "Car & Drivers" and "Road & Tracks" from the mid '60's to the early 70's in the basement. Gave them away about 2 years ago. I still kept the borchures from the 1965 - 1968 auto show in Detroit. They're around here somewhere.

Thanks for the photos!

I have never thrown away a car magazine. I have some from the mid 50's,called Hop-Up,which is the size of a TV Guide with brownish printing,no color. That mag became Hot Rod magazine. I have like 20 years of Hot Rod magazines. I have Classic Car Revue,Muscle Car Revue,Super Chevy and GM High Performance. I must have at least 400 car mags stored away in boxes. Pack Rat!!!!!

John....don't get rid of those! They're great!
(If you do get rid of them, let us know. I'm sure there are a few people here that would be happy to take them off your hands.)
