Created under the watchful eye of General Motors design chief Bill Mitchell, Camaro sales topped 220,000 in the first production year. Take a look back at the Camaro from its introduction in 1967 up through the modern era.

He reveals the changing body styles of Z/28s, 350s, the SS396, Berger, Yenko, LT-1, and IROC-Z Camaros. Rounding out Camaro's legendary history is coverage of its involvement and successes in racing.
