I don't believe first gens had 160 mph speedos,..though Vette's did. There was a 140 mph speedo for some of the COPO cars,..at least in 69.

I'm guessing the fastest first gens from the factory could only muster maybe 135 mph top speed.

Could a ZL-1 be ordered with a 3.08 gear?...that would go fast.

I think only the 67 and/or 68 Firebirds had the 160 mph speedo.

It could be a fire bird, I didnt think a camaro had 160 speedo, but figured I had to check. Thanks for the help :D
