Hi,

I was just wondering if anyone would be able to tell me if these are stock seats that have been re-upholstered, or if they are aftermarket. If so, any ideas what brand they are?

They are original seats for a 67, but I can't tell if they've been reupholstered or not. The repo seat covers are pretty nice. Are the backs of the seats metal or plastic? The originals on a 67 are metal and not being repo'd at this time, the 68's are plastic and are being repo'd and will fit a 67 seat just fine so you see a lot of that.

That's a nice car from what I can see, do you have more pictures of it?

possibly 68 seats, I think I see the emblem where your back would go, console for sure is 68/69

The seats are for a 67. It is a bit of the white stripe that is being mistaken for an emblem. The seat covers look to be in pretty good shape so they may have been replaced but it is hard to tell.

Metal seat backs are early 67 and late 67 are plastic - or so I believe.

I agree that the console is not a 67 console.

It looks like a nicely optioned car with power windows and air conditioning.

I second wilcox, Do you have any more pictures?

First time I've ever seen white stripes on ANY Camaro seats before. You sure those aren't reupholstered? Sure look like it to me.

Mine are plastic backs.

Thats correct. They are 67 deluxe seats which came with the white insert in them. Standard interior for 67 does not have the stripe in the seat bottom and seat back.

Thanks for the help, everyone.
It says black vinyl throughout the interior, so maybe he did reupholster them.

These are the only few pictures I have of Tim Brown's '67 RS

I'm serious.... I've never seen them in person or in pictures before.
Ya learn something new every day. Looks pretty nice actually.

Either way, they're in perfect condition if they're originals. Must only have a few hours of seat time on them.

Those are deluxe 67 seats (covers). I have a set in the attic (just no where near as nice). Another reason why 67 rules. :)

That is an outstanding color on the 67.
